On operating voltage
Before operating the system, check that the operating
voltage of the unit is identical with the voltage of your
local power supply.
On safety
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if it is
not to be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out by
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• 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.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified
service shop.
On placement
• Do not place the unit in an inclined position.
• Do not place the unit in locations where it is:
– extremely hot or cold
– dusty or dirty
– very humid
– subject to vibrations
– subject to direct sunlight.
• Use caution when placing the unit or speakers on
surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax,
oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the
surface may result.
On heat build-up
• Although the unit heats up during operation, this is
not a malfunction.
• Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation
to prevent heat build-up in the unit.
• If you continuously use this unit at a large volume,
the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom
rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not
touch the cabinet.
• To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the
ventilation hole for the cooling fan.
In case color irregularity is observed
on a nearby TV screen
With the magnetically shielded type of speakers, the
speakers can be installed near a TV set. However, color
irregularity may still be observed on the TV screen
depending on the type of your TV set.
If color irregularity is observed...
Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30
minutes.
If color irregularity is observed
again...
Place the speakers farther away from the TV set.
On operation
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture
may condense on the lens inside the unit.
Should this occur, the system will not operate
properly. Remove the disc and leave the unit turned
on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.
• Before you move the unit, make sure that all discs are
removed from the unit.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
