A

Note

• The BATT indicator dims when the batteries become

weak or exhausted. Replace them with new ones.

To use external power

Connect the AC power adaptor AC-E30HG* (not supplied)
to the DC IN 3V jack and to the mains. Do not use any
other AC power adaptor.
Specifications for AC-E30HG vary for each area. Check
your local voltage and the shape of the plug before
purchasing.

Note

Do not touch the AC power adaptor with wet hands.

* For customers in Saudi Arabia

You cannot use the DC IN 3V jack since the AC power adaptor is
not commercially available in Saudi Arabia.

Precautions

On batteries

• Do not carry dry batteries with coins or other metallic

objects.  It can generate heat if the positive and negative
terminals of the batteries are accidentally contacted by a
metallic object.

• When you are not going to use the Walkman for a long time,

remove the battery to avoid any damage caused by battery
leakage and subsequent corrosion.

On handling

• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a

place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand,
moisture, rain, mechanical shock, or in a car with its
windows closed.

• We do not recommend the use of tape longer than 90

minutes. They are very thin and tend to be stretched easily.
This may cause malfunction of the unit or sound
deterioration.

• If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the

playback mode to warm it up before inserting a cassette.

• For cleaning the case, use a soft cloth slightly moistened with

mild detergent solution. Do not use alcohol, benzine or
thinner.

On headphones/earphones

Road safety

Do not use headphones/earphones while driving, cycling, or
operating any motorized vehicle.  It may create a traffic hazard and is
illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play
your headphones/earphones at high volume while walking, especially
at pedestrian crossings.
You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially
hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Do not use headphones/earphones at high volume.  Hearing experts
advise against continuous, loud and extended play.  If you experience
a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level.  This will allow you to hear
outside sounds and to be considerate to the people around you.
