Never disassemble the system or accessories
Use the PS Vita 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.
Use in other countries
Depending on the country or region, there are limitations on the
use of certain types of radio signals. In some cases, use of the
system's network feature may lead to a fine or other penalty.
When moisture condensation occurs
If the PS Vita system is brought directly from a cold location to a
warm one, moisture may condense inside the system and cause
it to operate improperly.
Should this occur, turn off and unplug the system. Do not use
the PS Vita system until the moisture evaporates (this may take
several hours). If the system still does not operate properly, visit
us.playstation.com/support or contact SCEA Consumer
Services at 1-800-345-7669 for assistance.
Care and cleaning of exterior surfaces
For safety reasons, unplug the AC power cord from the
electrical outlet and disconnect any other cables before
cleaning.
Cleaning the exterior surface, screen and camera area
• Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
• Do not use solvents or other chemicals to clean the exterior
surface, screen and camera area.
• Do not use a chemically-treated cleaning cloth to wipe the
system.
Cleaning the connectors
If the PS Vita system connectors or the USB cable connectors
get dirty, signals may not be sent or received properly. Also, if
the headphone connector gets dirty, you may experience noise
of interruptions in the sound. Wipe the connectors with a dry,
soft cloth to keep them clean.
Contact with other objects
Observe the following precaution so that the surface of the
PS Vita system does not become discolored or damaged:
Do not allow the system to remain in direct contact with rubber
or vinyl products for an extended period of time.
