Note about the Battery Terminal
The battery terminal of this unit (the connector for battery
packs and AC adaptors) is a consumable part.
Power may not be supplied to the unit properly if the pins of
the battery terminal are bent or deformed by shock or
vibrations, or if they become corroded due to prolonged
outdoor use.
Periodic inspections are recommended to keep the unit
working properly and to prolong its usable lifetime.
Contact your Sony dealer or a Sony service representative for
more information about inspections.
