On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the 
cabinet, unplug the player and have it 
checked by qualified personnel before 
operating it any further.

On power sources
• The player is not disconnected from the AC 

power source (mains) as long as it is 
connected to the wall outlet, even if the 
player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a 

long time, be sure to disconnect the player 
from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC 
power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug 
itself; never pull the cord.

On placement
• Place the player in a location with adequate 

ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the 
player.

• Do not place the player on a soft surface 

such as a rug.

• Do not place the player in a location near 

heat sources, or in a place subject to direct 
sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical 
shock.

On operation
• If the player is brought directly from a cold 

to a warm location, or is placed in a very 
damp room, moisture may condense on the 
lenses inside the player. Should this occur, 
the player may not operate properly. In this 
case, remove the disc and leave the player 
turned on for about half an hour until the 
moisture evaporates.

• When you move the player, take out any 

discs. If you don’t, the disc may be 
damaged.

On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while listening to 
a section with very low level inputs or no 
audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be 
damaged when a peak level section is played.

On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a 
soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild 
detergent solution. Do not use any type of 
abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent 
such as alcohol or benzine.

If you have any questions or problems 
concerning your player, please consult your 
nearest Sony dealer.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Caution: This player is capable of holding a 
still video image or on-screen display image 
on your television screen indefinitely. If 
you leave the still video image or on-screen 
display image displayed on your TV for an 
extended period of time you risk permanent 
damage to your television screen. Plasma 
display panel televisions and projection 
televisions are susceptible to this.

DVD-Rs or CD-Rs/CD-RWs
Some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, DVD-RWs/DVD-
Rs, or CD-Rs/CD-RWs cannot be played on this

The disc will not play if it has not been correctly 
finalized. For more information, refer to the 
operating instructions for the recording device. 
Note that some playback functions may not work 
with some DVD+RWs/DVD+Rs, even if they 
have been correctly finalized. In this case, view 
the disc by normal playback. Also some DATA 
CDs/DATA DVDs created in Packet Write 
format cannot be played.
