Avoid using or storing the unit in the following
places.
• In excessive heat or cold
• In direct sunlight or close to heaters for
extended periods
• Near strong magnetic fields
• Close to radio or TV transmitters producing
strong electromagnetic fields

Condensation
If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a
warm location, or if ambient temperature
suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer
surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This
is known as condensation. If condensation
occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the
condensation clears before operating the unit.
Operating the unit while condensation is present
may damage the unit.
Network security
• SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF
ANY KIND RESULTING FROM A FAILURE TO
IMPLEMENT PROPER SECURITY MEASURES ON
TRANSMISSION DEVICES, UNAVOIDABLE DATA
LEAKS RESULTING FROM TRANSMISSION
SPECIFICATIONS, OR SECURITY PROBLEMS OF
ANY KIND.
• Depending on the operating environment,
unauthorized third parties on the network may
be able to access the unit. When connecting
the unit to the network, be sure to confirm that
the network is protected securely.
Use the SSL function, Referer check function, or
other security measures to prevent
unauthorized access to the unit. For details
about functions, see “[Security] Page”
(page 18).
• From a safety standpoint, when using the unit
connected with the network, it is strongly
recommended to access the Control window
via a Web browser and change the access
limitation settings from the factory preset
values.
Changing the password regularly is also
recommended. For details about changing the
password, see “[Security] Page” (page 18).
• Do not browse any other website in the Web
browser while making settings or after making
settings. Since the login status remains in the
Web browser, close the Web browser when
you complete the settings to prevent
unauthorized third parties from using the unit
or harmful programs from running.
• The China model does not support the SSL
function.
• To protect customer information, reset the
settings of this unit to the factory settings
when lending or transferring the unit to
another person and when disposing of the
