Vents
Do not block any vents. To maintain good ventilation, follow the
guidelines below:
• Place the system at least 10 cm (4 in) away from a wall surface.
• Do not place on a carpet or rug with long fibers.
• Do not place in a narrow or cramped space.
• Do not cover with cloth.
• Do not allow dust to build up on the vents.
AC power cord use
• Any TV or component connected to the system must be
functioning properly and free of defects. If a TV or component
is faulty or defective, it may cause damage to the TV or
component, or to the system itself. As with all electrical
products, connection to faulty or defective components, or
the failure to connect to a properly wired outlet, may cause
sparking and pose a fire hazard.
• Do not plug the AC power cord for the system into an
electrical outlet until you have made all other connections.
Make sure the TV or other component is unplugged from the
electrical outlet prior to connecting it to the system.
• To help ensure safe operation, regularly inspect the AC power
cord. If damaged, stop use immediately and contact SCEA
Consumer Services (

and PlayStation 2 peripherals such as

) and analog

back cover).
• Do not use a power cord other than the supplied AC power
cord. Do not modify the cord.
• Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord with wet hands.
• Protect the AC power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, expansion receptacles and the point
where the cord exits from the system.
• Do not place heavy items on the cord.
• Do not place the AC power cord near heating equipment and
do not expose the cord to heat.
• Unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before
cleaning or moving the system, or when you do not intend to
use the system for an extended period of time. When
disconnecting, grasp the power cord by the plug and pull
straight out of the electrical outlet. Never pull by the cord and
do not pull out at an angle.
• Do not connect the AC power cord to a voltage transformer or
inverter. Connecting the AC power cord to a voltage
transformer for overseas travel or an inverter for use in an
automobile may cause heat to build up in the system and may
cause burns or a malfunction.
