Precautions

On batteries

• Do not carry dry batteries with coins or other metallic objects. It can generate heat if the positive and negative terminals of the batteries are accidentally contacted by a metallic object.

• When you are not going to use your Walkman for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from battery leakage and corrosion.

On handling

• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand, moisture, rain, mechanical shock, or in a car with its windows closed.

• Do not use cassettes longer than 90 minutes except for long continuous playback.

• The LCD display may become hard to see or slow down when using the unit at high temperatures (above 40°C/104°F) or at low temperatures (below 0°C/32°F). At room temperature, the display will return to its normal operating condition.

• If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before you start using again.

On headphones/earphones

Road safety

Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headphones/earphones at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Do not use headphones/earphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people around you.

On maintenance

• To clean the tape head and path, use the cleaning cassette CHK-1W/C-1KW (not supplied) every 10 hours of use. Use only the recommended cleaning cassette.

• To clean the exterior, use a soft cloth slightly moistened in water. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner.

• Clean the headphones/earphones plugs periodically.
