Sony SRS-XB13 Reference Manual page 2

To avoid the deterioration of waterproof and dustproof
performance
Check the following and use the unit correctly.
• This unit does not have a design that is resistant to water pressure. Use
of the unit in a location where high water pressure is applied, such as
in the shower, may cause a malfunction.
• Do not pour high-temperature water or blow hot air from a hair dryer
or any other appliance on the unit directly. Also never use the unit in a
place subject to high temperatures, such as in a sauna or near a heat
source.
• Handle the cap with care. The cap plays a very important role in
maintenance of the waterproof and dustproof performance. When
using the unit, make sure that the cap is closed completely. When
closing the cap, be careful not to allow foreign objects inside. If the cap
is not closed completely the waterproof and dustproof performance
may deteriorate and may cause a malfunction of the unit as a result of
water or dust particles entering the unit.
How to care for the unit
You can use the unit more comfortably and for a longer period of time
by following the maintenance procedure below.
• If the surface of the unit gets dirty in the following cases, wash the unit
with fresh water (tap water, etc.) promptly to remove the dirt. Leaving
dirt on its surface may cause the surface to discolor or deteriorate, or
the unit to malfunction.
Ex.
– When the unit has sand, salt (chlorine), or other residue on it after
having been used in a mountain area, by a swimming pool, etc.
– When the unit is stained with foreign substances (sunscreen, suntan
oil, etc.)
• If the unit gets wet, wipe off the moisture using a dry soft cloth
immediately. In addition, dry the unit in an airy place until no moisture
remains.
• The sound quality may change if water enters the speaker component
of the unit. This, however, does not indicate a malfunction. Wipe the
moisture off the unit surface, and leave the unit on a dry soft cloth with
its surface with the speaker component facing down to let the water
out from inside the unit. Then, dry the unit in an airy place until no
moisture remains.
Note
• If the surface of the unit gets dirty, do not use detergent, thinner,
benzine, alcohol, etc. to clean the unit because it will affect the water
repellent function of the unit.
• Especially in cold regions, be sure to wipe off the moisture after using
the unit. Leaving moisture on its surface may cause the unit to freeze
and malfunction.
