Appendix Important Notes on Operation Use and storage Do not subject the unit to severe shocks The internal mechanism may be damaged or the body warped. Shocks may also damage the internal storage. Do not cover the unit while operating Doing so will cause temperatures to rise inside the unit, possibly resulting in failure. After use Turn off the on/standby button. If you plan not to use the unit for a long time, turn off the main power switch on the rear panel as well. Shipping • To prevent damage to the internal storage, always power the unit off. • Remove memory cards before transporting the unit. • If sending the unit by truck, ship, air or other transportation service, pack it in the shipping carton of the unit. Care of the unit If the body of the unit is dirty, clean it with a soft, dry cloth. In extreme cases, use a cloth steeped in a little neutral detergent, then wipe dry. Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol or thinners, as these may cause discoloration or other damage to the finish of the unit. In the event of operating problems If you should experience problems with the unit, contact your Sony service or sales representative. Use and storage locations Store in a level, ventilated place. Avoid using or storing the unit in the following places. • In excessive heat or cold (operating temperature range: 5°C to 40°C (41°F to 104°F)) Remember that in summer or in warm climates the temperature inside a car with the windows closed can easily exceed 50°C (122°F). • In damp or dusty locations • Locations where the unit may be exposed to rain • Locations subject to violent vibration • Near strong magnetic fields • Close to radio or TV transmitters producing strong electromagnetic fields. • In direct sunlight or close to heaters for extended periods To prevent electromagnetic interference from portable communications devices The use of portable telephones and other communications devices near this unit can result in malfunctions and interference with audio and video signals. It is recommended that the portable communications devices near this unit be powered off. About the LCD panel The LCD panel fitted to this unit is manufactured with high precision technology, giving a functioning pixel ratio of at least 99.99%. Thus a very small proportion of pixels maybe "stuck", either always off (black), always on (red, green, or blue), or flashing. In addition, over a long period of use, because of the physical characteristics of the liquid crystal display, such "stuck" pixels may appear spontaneously. These problems are not a malfunction. Note that any such problems have no effect on recorded data. Condensation If you move the unit from a very cold place to a warm place, or use it in a damp location, condensation may form on the optical pickup. Then, if the unit is operated in this state, recording and playback may not be performed properly. Appendix 129 Important Notes on Operation
