•Use only the supplied AC power adaptor. Do
not use any other AC power adaptor.
•After operating the system with the AC power
adaptor, disconnect the AC power adaptor from
the wall outlet if the system is not to be used for
an extended period of time. The POWER switch
on the amplifier does not turn the AC power
adaptor off.
•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 either
speaker, disconnect the AC power adaptor and
have the speaker 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 of time.
•The nameplate indicating operating voltage,
power consumption, etc., is located on the side of
the plug of the AC power adaptor.
•Install the system on a flat, level surface to
prevent it from falling over or droping. Do not
place valuables near it.
If the TV picture or monitor display is
magnetically distorted
Although this system is magnetically shielded,
there may be cases that the picture on some TV
sets/personal computer 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 further 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 due to their
interaction with the system.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system that are not covered in this manual,
to a w all outlet
please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
