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 your Walkman for a long time,

remove the batteries to prevent damage from battery leakage
and corrosion.

• 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.

• Do not use cassettes longer than 90 minutes except for long

continuous playback.

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

playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes 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.

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.

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.

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