Operating Instructions
Manual de instrucciones

• After operating the system, disconnect the USB cable

from the computer if the system is not to be used for an
extended period.

• Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified

personnel only.

• 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.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system,

remove the USB cable and have the system checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.

• Do not use alcohol, benzine, or thinner to clean the

cabinet.

• Although this system is magnetically shielded, do not

leave recorded tapes, watches, personal credit cards or
floppy disks using magnetic coding in front of the
system for an extended period.

Although this system is magnetically shielded, there may
be cases that the picture on some TV sets/personal
computers sets may become magnetically distorted. In
such a case, turn off the power of the TV set/personal
computer set once, and after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on
again. For the personal computer set, take the appropriate
measures such as data storage before turning it off.

When there seems to be no improvement
Locate the system farther away from the TV set/personal
computer set. Furthermore, be sure not to place objects in
which magnets are attached or used near the TV set/
personal computer set, such as audio racks, TV stands,
toys etc. These may cause magnetic distortion to the
picture.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your
system that are not covered in this manual, please consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
