 Notes on using your Walkman • Do not immerse your Walkman in soapy water, shampoo, chemicals, water with detergent or bath agents, hot spring water, or seawater, etc., and do not pour these liquids on the Walkman. Do not allow foreign objects such as sand or dirt to get on the Walkman. If foreign objects get on the Walkman, rinse them off with fresh water at room temperature or gently running tap water immediately, and dry the Walkman using a soft dry cloth. • Do not expose your Walkman to strong running water from a tap, etc. • Do not pour hot water directly on your Walkman and do not blow hot air from a hair dryer, etc., directly on the Walkman. Never use the Walkman in high temperature locations such as in saunas or near a stove. • Do not bring your Walkman from a cold location to a warm location suddenly. Rapid temperature change causes condensation, and moisture may condense inside of the Walkman. • The earbuds seal your ears. Therefore, be aware that there is a risk of damage to your ears or eardrums if strong pressure is applied to the earbuds, or the earbuds are suddenly removed from your ears. Due to this risk, do not do vigorous exercise, dive into a swimming pool, etc., while wearing your Walkman.  Cleaning after use • If perspiration, sand, or dirt gets on your Walkman, rinse it off with fresh water at room temperature or gently running tap water immediately. When you wash the Walkman, wash it by hand without using a brush, etc. However, do not expose the headphone sections to direct strong streames of water when doing so. Do not wash the Walkman in a washing machine or ultrasound bath, etc. Do not use detergent, chemicals, or wet wipes. • After washing your Walkman, wipe away the water on the Walkman using a soft cloth, and then leave the Walkman in a well-ventilated shady place to dry. Do not dry the Walkman using hot air from a hair dryer. Doing so may cause deformation and deterioration of the water resistant performance. • Because the headphone sections (see the first figure) are not water-tight, sound quality of your Walkman may deteriorate if water gets inside the headphones. If water gets in the headphones, follow the procedures below to remove water. Do not use the Walkman until it dries completely.  Wipe the moisture off your Walkman using a dry cloth.  Pat the headphones dry with a soft dry cloth. Repeat patting about 20 times.  Put a dry cloth under the headphones, and leave your Walkman at room temperature for about 2 or 3 hours.
