Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

USE

AC power cord and other cables If you damage the AC power cord or other cables, it may result in a fire or an electric shock. If the AC power cord or other cables is damaged, stop using it at once and contact the Sony service center.

s Do not place the receiver where the power cord and cables are subject to wear or abuse.

s Do not pinch, bend, or twist the cord excessively. The core lines may be bared and cut, and cause a short-circuit, resulting in a fire or an electric shock.

s Do not convert or damage the power cord and cables. s Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord and

cables. s Do not pull the power cord and cables. s Do not move the receiver with the power cord and cables plugged in. s Keep the power cord and cables away from heat sources. s Be sure to grasp the plug when disconnecting the power cord and

cables. s Do not expose the AC adapter to excessive heat.

Wall outlet Do not use a poor fitting outlet. Insert the plug fully into the outlet. If it is loose, it may cause arcing and result in a fire. Contact your electrician to have the outlet changed.

Cable wiring For your safety, unplug the AC power cord when wiring cables.

Take care not to catch your feet on the cables. It may damage the receiver.

Electric shock Do not touch the AC power cord or the receiver with a wet hand. If you plug/unplug the AC power cord from the receiver with a wet hand, it may cause electric shock.

Lightning For added protection for this receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This will prevent damage to the receiver due to lightning and power line surges.

Small accessories Keep small accessories out of children's reach.

CLEANING s Clean the AC power plug regularly. s If the plug is covered with dust and it picks

up moisture, its insulation may deteriorate and result in a fire.

s Unplug the AC power cord when cleaning this receiver. If not, it may result in electric shock.

s Clean the casing of the receiver with a dry soft cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth slightly moistened with a solution of mild soap and warm water. Never use strong solvents such as thinner or benzine for cleaning.

s If using a chemically pretreated cloth, please follow the instruction provided on the package.

s Dust the ventilation holes with a dry cloth.

4

VENTILATION The holes on the side of the receiver are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the receiver, and to protect it from overheating, these ventilation holes must never be blocked or covered.

Unless proper ventilation is provided, the receiver may gather dust and get dirty. For proper ventilation, observe the following:

s Never block the ventilation holes by placing the receiver on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.

s Never place the receiver in a confined space, such as a bookcase or built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is provided.

Objects and ventilation holes Never push objects of any kind into the receiver through the ventilation holes as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or an electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the receiver.

Do not place any objects on the receiver.

INSTALLATION

s The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible power outlet.

s Do not install the receiver in a hot or humid place, or in a place subject to excessive dust or greasy vapor.

s Avoid operating the receiver at temperature below 41F (5C). s When mounted to the back of TV, do not use the receiver as a handle

to pick up the TV set. s Make sure that the cord and connected cables are placed so that

tripping or stumbling may be avoided.

SERVICING

Damage requiring service If the surface of the receiver cracks, do not touch the receiver until you unplug the AC power cord.

Otherwise electric shock may result.

Servicing Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself since opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Replacement parts When replacement parts are required, be sure to have the service technician certify in writing that he/she has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as the original parts.

Unauthorized substitutions may result in a fire, an electric shock or other hazards.

Safety check Upon completion of any service or repairs to the receiver, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks (as specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the receiver is in safe operating condition, and to so certify. Should the receiver not be repairable, ask a qualified service technician to dispose of the receiver.
