On watching 3D video images
Some people may experience discomfort
(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while
watching 3D video images. Sony
recommends that all viewers take regular
breaks while watching 3D video images. The
length and frequency of necessary breaks will
vary from person to person. You must decide
what works best. If you experience any
discomfort, you should stop watching the 3D
video images until the discomfort ends;
consult a doctor if you believe necessary. You
should also review (i) the instruction manual
and/or the caution message of any other
device used with, or Blu-ray Disc contents
played with this product and (ii) our website
(http://esupport.sony.com/) for the latest
information. The vision of young children
(especially those under six years old) is still
under development. Consult your doctor
(such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before
allowing young children to watch 3D video
images. Adults should supervise young
children to ensure they follow the
recommendations listed above.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This player is capable of holding a
still video image or on-screen display image
on your television screen indefinitely. If you
leave the still video image or on-screen
display image displayed on your TV for an
extended period of time you risk permanent
damage to your television screen. Plasma
display panel televisions and projection
televisions are susceptible to this.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your player, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
About wireless LAN security
Since communication via the wireless LAN
function is established by radio waves, the
wireless signal may be susceptible to
interception. To protect wireless
communication, this player supports various
security functions. Be sure to correctly
configure the security settings in accordance
with your network environment.
No Security
Although you can easily make settings,
anyone can intercept wireless
communication or intrude into your wireless
network, even without any sophisticated
tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of
unauthorized access or interception of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to communications to
prevent outsiders from intercepting
communications or intruding into your
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security
technology that enables older devices, which
do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology developed to
correct the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP assures
a higher security level than WEP.
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)
AES is a security technology that uses an
advanced security method that is distinct
from WEP and TKIP.
AES assures a higher security level than WEP
or TKIP.
