Read carefully before operating your PlayStation®2

A few people may experience epileptic seizures when viewing flashing lights or patterns in our daily environment. These persons may experience seizures while watching TV or playing video games, including DVD videos or games played on the PlayStation console. Players who have not had any seizures may nonetheless have an undetected epileptic condition. Consult your physician before operating the PlayStation console if you have an epileptic condition or experience any of the following symptoms while watching TV programs or playing video games: altered vision, muscle twitching, other involuntary movements, loss of awareness of your surroundings, mental confusion, and/ or convulsions.

This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product.

This label is located on the protective housing of the CD/ DVD unit inside the enclosure.

Do not expose the console to cigarette smoke or dust

When setting up the console, avoid places subject to excessive cigarette smoke or dust. Cigarette smoke residue or dust build-up on internal components such as the lens, may cause the console to malfunction.

Disc handling

• Do not leave discs near a heat source, in direct sunlight, or in high humidity.

• Store discs in their cases when they are not being used. Stacking discs or standing them at an angle without putting them in their cases can cause the discs to warp.

• Do not touch the disc surface when handling a disc; hold it by the edges.

• Do not stick paper or tape onto the disc.

• Do not write on the disc with a marker, etc.

• Fingerprints or dust on the disc can distort the picture or reduce sound quality. Make sure discs are always clean before use.

• Clean discs using a soft cloth, lightly wiping from the centre outwards.

• Do not use solvents such as benzene, commercially available cleaners not intended for CD use or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs since these can damage the disc.

Do not place the console in an unusually hot location

Do not leave the console in a car with its windows closed (particularly in summer) as this may warp the exterior of the console or cause the console to malfunction.

Cleaning the exterior of the console

When cleaning the exterior of the console, be sure to turn the power off with the MAIN POWER switch on the back of the console and disconnect the AC power plug from the electrical socket.

• If the exterior of the console becomes dirty, soak a soft cloth in a mild detergent solution diluted with water, tightly squeeze the cloth to remove the excess liquid, wipe the affected area of the exterior and finish by wiping with a dry cloth.

• Do not use benzene or paint thinner to clean the exterior of the console since these may damage the surface or cause the paint to peel off. When using a chemically-treated dust cloth, follow the usage instructions supplied with it.

• Dust can accumulate in both the front and rear vents of the console. Check the vents from time to time and remove any accumulated dust with a handheld or low powered vacuum cleaner.

Never disassemble the console

• Use your PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system according to the instructions in this manual. No authorisation for the analysis or modification of the PlayStation circuit configurations, is given.

• There are no user-serviceable components inside the PlayStation guarantee. Additionally, there is a risk of exposure to (laser) radiation as well as to electrical shock hazards.

The rear channel is stereo and there is a discrete subwoofer channel in this format. Dolby Digital provides the same 5.1 discrete channels of high quality digital audio found in Dolby Digital cinema audio systems.
