Precautions
LCD screen
The LCD screen is made of glass and may crack if subjected to
excessive force.
Pixels that are not lit or are continuously lit may appear in
certain locations on the LCD screen. The appearance of such
spots is a normal occurrence associated with LCD screens and
is not a sign of a system malfunction. LCD screens are made
using highly precise technology. However, a very small number
of dark pixels or continuously lit pixels exist 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 LCD
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, as doing so may cause a faint image to
be left permanently on the screen.
Recorded data
Do not use the Memory Stick Micro
™
media in the following
ways, as doing so may result in data loss or corruption:
Removing the Memory Stick Micro
™
media or turning off the
system while it is loading or saving data or being formatted.
Using it in a location that is exposed to static electricity or
electrical interference.
If, for any reason, software or data loss or corruption occurs,
it is usually not possible to recover the software or data. It is
recommended that you regularly back up software and data.
Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. and its subsidiaries and
affiliates will not be held liable for any damages or injury in
the case of software or data loss or corruption.
Never disassemble the system or accessories
Use the PSP
™
system and accessories according to the instructions
in this manual. No authorization for the analysis or modification
of the system, or the analysis and use of its circuit configurations,
is provided. Disassembling will void the system warranty.
Additionally, there is a risk of fire, electrical shock or
malfunction. The LCD screen, in particular, contains dangerous,
high-voltage parts.
