– Do not use the PS Vita system or the AC adaptor when they
are covered by a cloth or in their cases. Heat may build up
and cause a fire or damage to the system.
• Do not connect the AC power cord to a voltage transformer or
inverter. Connecting the AC power cord to a voltage
transformer for overseas travel or an inverter for use in an
automobile may cause heat to build up in the AC adaptor and
may cause burns or a malfunction.
• Use an electrical outlet that is easily accessible, so the AC
power cord can be unplugged quickly if the need arises.
• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and
shall be easily accessible.
Screen
• The screen (touchscreen) is made of glass and may crack if
subjected to excessive force.
• When using the system, keep the light in the room bright and
keep as far away from the screen as possible.
• Don't press your finger on the screen with excessive force.
Also, do not scrape or scratch the screen with anything hard,
such as metal, or anything with a sharp tip (such as a pencil
or your fingernails). Any of these actions may damage or
break the screen.
• Prolonged contact with water or dust may damage the screen
and shorten its life.
• Black (dark) pixels and continuously lit pixels may appear in
certain locations on the screen. The appearance of such
spots is a normal occurrence associated with screens and is
not a sign of a system malfunction. Screens are made using
highly precise technology. However, a very small number of
dark pixels or continuously lit pixels may exist and colour
irregularities or brightness irregularities may be visible on
each screen. Also, a distorted image may remain on the
screen for several seconds after the system has been turned
off.
• Direct exposure to sunlight may damage the system's screen.
Be careful when using the system outdoors or near a window.
• When using the system in a cold environment, you may notice
shadows on the graphics or the screen may appear darker
than usual. This is not a malfunction, and the screen will return
to normal when the temperature goes up.
• Do not leave still images displayed on the screen for an
extended period of time. This may cause a faint image to be
left permanently on the screen.
Left Stick / Right Stick
• You cannot remove the sticks. If you try to remove them, you
could injure yourself or damage the system.
• The sticks cannot be operated by pressing on them. If you
press on them too hard you can damage them.
Using Wi-Fi access points
When connecting to the Internet using the Wi-Fi feature, the
system automatically detects nearby access points. An access
point that you are not authorized to use may be included among
the detected devices. Only connect to a personal access point
that you are authorized to use, or one that is available through a
commercial Wi-Fi service. The user is responsible for all fees
associated with Wi-Fi access.
