On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources
• Before operating the unit, check that the operating
voltage is identical to your local power supply. The
operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate at the
rear of the unit.
• If you are not going to use the unit for a long time, be
sure to disconnect the unit from the wall outlet
(mains). To disconnect the AC power cord (mains
lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
• One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the
purpose of safety and will fit into the wall outlet
(mains) only one way. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
• AC power cord (mains lead) must be changed only at
the qualified service shop.
• Install this unit so that the power cord can be
unplugged from the wall socket immediately in the
event of trouble.
On heat buildup
Although the unit heats up during operation, this is not
a malfunction. If you continuously use this unit at a
large volume, the unit temperature of the top, side and
bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself,
do not touch the unit.
On placement
• Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation
to prevent heat buildup and prolong the life of the
unit.
• Use caution when placing the unit on surfaces that
have been specially treated (with wax, oil, polish, etc.)
as staining or discoloration of the surface may result.
• The floor may be damaged if sand, trash, etc., gets
caught under the legs of the unit.
On operation
Before connecting other components, be sure to turn off
and unplug the unit.
If you encounter color irregularity on
a nearby TV screen
The unit is magnetically shielded to allow it to be
installed near a TV set. However, color irregularities
may still be observed on certain types of TV sets.
If color irregularity is observed...
Turn off the TV set, then turn it on again after 15 to 30
minutes.
If color irregularity is observed
again...
Place the unit further away from the TV set.
On cleaning
Clean the unit with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any type
of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as
alcohol or benzine.
If you have any question or problem concerning your
unit, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
