Disposal of waste batteries 
(applicable in the European Union 
and other European countries with 
separate collection systems)
This symbol on the battery or on the 
packaging indicates that the battery 
provided with this product shall not be 
treated as household waste.
On certain batteries this symbol might be 
used in combination with a chemical 
symbol. The chemical symbols for mercury 
(Hg) or lead (Pb) are added if the battery 
contains more than 0.0005% mercury or 
0.004% lead.
By ensuring these batteries are disposed of 
correctly, you will help prevent potentially 
negative consequences for the environment 
and human health which could otherwise be 
caused by inappropriate waste handling of 
the battery. The recycling of the materials 
will help to conserve natural resources.
In case of products that for safety, 
performance or data integrity reasons 
require a permanent connection with an 
incorporated battery, this battery should be 
replaced by qualified service staff only.
To ensure that the battery will be treated 
properly, hand over the product at end-of-
life to the applicable collection point for the 
recycling of electrical and electronic 
equipment.
For all other batteries, please view the 
section on how to remove the battery from 
the product safely. Hand the battery over to 
the applicable collection point for the 
recycling of waste batteries.
For more detailed information about 
recycling of this product or battery, please 
contact your local Civic Office, your 
household waste disposal service or the 
shop where you purchased the product.
A moulded plug complying with BS 1363 
is fitted to this equipment for your safety 
and convenience.
Should the fuse in the plug supplied need to 
be replaced, a fuse of the same rating as the 
supplied one and approved by ASTA or 
BSI to BS 1362, (i.e., marked with an 
 or 
 mark) must be used.
If the plug supplied with this equipment has 
a detachable fuse cover, be sure to attach 
the fuse cover after you change the fuse. 
Never use the plug without the fuse cover. 
If you should lose the fuse cover, please 
contact your nearest Sony service station.
