If connecting the system via a device with a built-in radio or tuner, radio broadcasts or TV sound may not be received,
or sensitivity may be reduced significantly.
When the system is connected to the monaural jack of a source device
The sound may not come through the right speaker.
Notes
If the PC volume adjustment (master volume, WAV volume, etc.) is low, the volume level may be insufficient. If so, turn up the sound of
the PC. For details on volume adjustment on your PC, refer to its operating instructions.
Make sure the connection of the stereo mini plug and the jack of the source device is made properly.
Make sure the left speaker is properly connected to the right speaker and subwoofer. If you connect incorrectly, low tone may not be
produced by the subwoofer, or the sound of the right speaker may be distorted. Discontinue use, as malfunction may result.
Be sure to lower the volume of the source device (PC, TV, etc.) and turn off the system when removing the audio cable from the source
device. If you remove the audio cable while the source device (PC, TV, etc.) is working, the equipment or your ears may be damaged by
unexpected loud sound.
To output sound from both the system and TV, configure the audio output setting of the TV. For details on setting, refer to the operating
instructions supplied with the TV.
On operation
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system,
have the system checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
Although the satellite speakers are magnetically
shielded, the subwoofer is not, so do not leave recorded
tapes, watches, personal credit cards, or floppy disks
with magnetic coding in front of the system for an
extended period of time.
On placement
Do not set the system in an inclined position.
Do not leave the system in a location near heat sources,
or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
moisture, rain or mechanical shock.
On cleaning
Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean the
cabinet.
Notes on USB devices
If the system does not recognise a USB device, turn the
system off, disconnect and then reconnect the USB
device, then turn the system on again.
Do not insert anything other than the USB device (such
as liquid, metal, combustible material, etc.) into the
USB port. It may cause a fire, an electric shock, and a
malfunction.
Do not connect a USB device to the system via a USB
hub.
When connecting the system to another device with a
USB cable, be sure to insert the terminal in the correct
way. Pushing the terminal forcibly into the slot will
damage the terminal and may result in a malfunction of
the system.
You are advised to make a backup of important data of
any USB device.
Damaged data may occur in the following cases:
– If you remove a USB device, or turn off the system
while the system is reading files on a USB device.
– If you use a USB device near a place influenced by
static electricity or electrical noise.
Sony does not assume any responsibility for damage or
loss of data on a USB device.
Sony does not guarantee the encoding software, or the
software used for writing data. If a prerecorded file is
unsuitable for playing with this system, noise may be
heard, playback may be interrupted or there may be no
playback at all.
Playback of WMA files with copyright protection is not
supported.
Files downloaded from a music download website may
not be playable.
If the TV picture or monitor display is
magnetically distorted
Although the satellite speakers are magnetically shielded,
the subwoofer is not, and there may be cases where the
picture on some TV sets/personal computers may become
magnetically distorted. In such a case, turn off the power
of the TV set/personal computer once, and after 15 to 30
minutes turn it on again. In the case of a personal
computer, take appropriate measures such as data storage
before turning off.
If no improvement is apparent, locate the system farther
away from the TV set/personal computer.
