Precautions

Safety

This product has been designed with the highest concern for safety. However, any
electrical device, if used improperly, has the potential for causing fire, electrical
shock or personal injury. To help ensure accident-free operation, follow these
guidelines:
• Observe all warnings, precautions and instructions.
• Stop use and unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet immediately if

the device functions in an abnormal manner or produces unusual sounds or smells.

• Never connect cables of types other than those specified in this manual to the

network connector.

• Call SCEA Consumer Services at 1-800-345-7669 if the device does not operate

properly.

Use and handling

• When operating the unit, play in a well-lit room and keep a safe distance from the

TV screen.

• Avoid prolonged use of the console. To help prevent eye strain, take a break of

about 15 minutes during every hour of play.

• Do not throw or drop the console or accessories, or expose them to strong physical

shock.

• Do not place the console or accessories on surfaces that are unstable, tilted or

subject to vibration.

• Do not expose the console or accessories to high temperatures, high humidity or

direct sunlight (use in an environment where temperatures range from 5°C to 35°C/
41°F to 95°F).

• Do not place the console or accessories in locations subject to sudden temperature

change (for example, changes of 10°C/18°F per hour or more).

• Do not leave the console or accessories in a car with its windows closed

(particularly in summer).

• Do not expose the console to dust, smoke or steam.
• Do not allow liquid or small particles to get into the console.
• Do not put any objects on the console.
• Do not touch or insert foreign objects into the connectors of the console or

accessories.

• Do not place the console close to magnetic fields produced by magnets or

loudspeakers.

• Do not set the console other than in the vertical or horizontal position. When

placing in the vertical position, use the vertical stand (for PlayStation

®

2) (sold

separately) that is compatible with this console. Also, do not change the position
while the console is turned on.

• Do not place any rubber or vinyl materials on the console exterior for an extended

period of time.

AC adaptor and AC power cord use

• Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord with wet hands.
• Do not touch the console or connected accessories during an electrical storm.
• Do not touch the console or AC adaptor for extended periods of time while the

console is turned on as extended contact may cause low-temperature burns.

• To help ensure safe operation, regularly inspect the AC adaptor and AC power

cord. If damaged, stop use immediately and call SCEA Consumer Services at
1-800-345-7669 for assistance.

• Do not use a power cord other than the supplied AC adaptor and AC power cord.
• Check that there is no dust or lint on the power plug before inserting into an

electrical outlet. If the plug becomes dirty, wipe it off with a dry cloth before
connecting.

• Do not allow dust or foreign matter to build up around the ~AC IN connector.

Before connecting or plugging in the AC power cord, check that there is no dust or
foreign matter in or on the power plug or connecting end of the cord, the socket of
the wall outlet or the ~AC IN connector on the console rear. Dust or other matter
on the connectors can result in fire or electrical shock.

• Unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning or moving the

console, or when you do not intend to use the console for an extended period of
time. When disconnecting, grasp the power cord by the plug and pull straight out
of the electrical socket. Never pull by the cord and do not pull out at an angle.

• Do not connect the AC power cord to a voltage transformer or inverter.
