On safety
• The laser beam emitted from the lens
of your PlayStation

(PS one
™
)
console is harmful to the eyes. Do
not attempt to disassemble the casing.
Servicing should be carried out by
qualified personnel only.
• Should any solid objects or liquid fall
into your PlayStation
®
(PS one
™
)
console, unplug it immediately and
have it checked by qualified
personnel before any further use.
• Unplug your PlayStation
®
(PS one
™
)
console from the wall outlet when it
is not in use. When disconnecting the
AC adaptor from the wall outlet, pull
it out by grasping the plug. Never

For your health
To prevent eyestrain:

Taiwan, and on 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz
in other countries.
• Do not block the air vents or wrap up
your PlayStation
®
(PS one
™
) console
as heat may build up internally.
• Avoid rough handling or shock, and
do not put any heavy objects on your
PlayStation
®
(PS one
™
) console. This
could damage the console or the disc.
• Do not leave your PlayStation
®
(PS one
™

or in a place subject to direct sunlight
(operating temperature: 5˚C-35˚C),
excessive dust or sand, moisture,
liquid, on an uneven surface, or in a
car with its windows closed.

®
(PS one
™
)

or television reception, turn it off or
move it away from the radio or
television.
• Do not touch the lens inside the disc
cover. To protect the lens from dust
keep the disc cover closed except
when inserting or removing the disc.
If the lens is not clean, your

™
) console may
not operate properly.
• The SCPH-1040 G link cable cannot
be used with this unit.

On moisture condensation
If your PlayStation

brought directly from a cold to a warm
location, or is placed in a very damp
room, moisture may condense on the
lens inside. Should this occur, your
PlayStation
®

operate properly. In this case, remove
the disc for several hours until the
moisture evaporates. If your
PlayStation

not operate properly, call the
PlayStation
®
service line number listed
on your warranty card for technical
assistance.
