• Do not place heavy or unstable objects on 

the player.

• Do not place any objects other than discs on 

the disc tray. Doing so may cause damage to 
the player or the object.

• Take out any discs from the tray when you 

move the player. If you don’t, the disc may 
be damaged.

• Disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) 

and all other cables from the player when 
you move the player.

On power sources

• The player is not disconnected from the AC 

power source (mains) as long as it is 
connected to the wall outlet, even if the 
player itself has been turned off.

• Disconnect the player from the wall outlet if 

you are not going to use the player for a long 
time. To disconnect the AC power cord 
(mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull 
the cord.

• Observe following points to prevent the AC 

power cord (mains lead) being damaged. Do 
not use the AC power cord (mains lead) if it 
is damaged, as doing so may result in an 
electric shock or fire.
– Do not pinch the AC power cord (mains 

lead) between the player and wall, shelf, 
etc.

– Do not put anything heavy on the AC 

power cord (mains lead) or pull on the AC 
power cord (mains lead) itself.

On adjusting volume

Do not turn up the volume while listening to a 
section with very low level inputs or no audio 
signals. Your ears and the speakers may be 
damaged when the sound level reaches the 
peak.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a 
soft cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, 
scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or 
benzine.

On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaners

Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners 
(including wet or spray types). These may 
cause the apparatus to malfunction.

On replacement of parts

In the events that this player is repaired, 
repaired parts may be collected for reuse or 
recycling purposes.

On connecting to the HDMI OUT jack

Observe the following as improper handling 
may damage the HDMI OUT jack and the 
connector.
• Carefully align the HDMI OUT jack on the 

rear of the player and the HDMI connector 
by checking their shapes. Make sure the 
connector is not upside down or tilted.

• Be sure to disconnect the HDMI cable when 

moving the player.

• Hold the HDMI connector straight when 

connecting or disconnecting the HDMI 
cable. Do not twist or force the HDMI 
connector into the HDMI OUT jack.

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* for the latest 
information. The vision of young children
