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, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
