Precautions

On safety
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
system, unplug the system and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
• Do not climb on the Bar Speaker,
subwoofer and surround speakers as you
may fall down and injure yourself, or
system damage may result.
On power sources
• Before operating the system, check that the
operating voltage is identical to your local
power supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear of
the Bar Speaker.
• If you are not going to use the system for a
long time, be sure to disconnect the system
from the wall outlet (mains). To disconnect
the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
• One blade of the plug is wider than the
other for the purpose of safety and will fit
into the wall outlet (mains) only one way. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, contact your dealer.
• AC power cord (mains lead) must be
changed only at a qualified service shop.
On heat buildup
Although the system heats up during
operation, this is not a malfunction. If you
continuously use this system at high volume,
the system temperature at the rear and
bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning
yourself, do not touch the system.
On placement
• Place the system in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
buildup and prolong the life of the system.
• Do not place the system near heat sources
or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, or mechanical shock.
• Do not place anything at the rear of the Bar
Speaker, subwoofer and surround speakers
that might block the ventilation holes and
cause malfunctions.
• If the system is being used in combination
with a TV, VCR, or tape deck, noise may
result and picture quality may suffer. In
such a case, place the system away from
the TV, VCR, or tape deck.
• Use caution when placing the system on a
surface that has been specially treated
(with wax, oil, polish, etc.), as staining or
discoloration of the surface may result.
• Take care to avoid any possible injury from
the corners of the Bar Speaker, subwoofer
and surround speakers.
• Keep 3 cm or more space under the Bar
Speaker when you hang it on a wall.
On operation
Before connecting other devices, be sure to
turn off and unplug the system.
If you encounter color irregularity on
a nearby TV screen
Color irregularities may be observed on
certain types of TV sets.
If color irregularity is observed...
Turn off the TV set, then turn it on again after
15 to 30 minutes.
If color irregularity is observed
again...
Place the system further away from the TV
set.
On cleaning
Clean the system with a soft, dry cloth. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder, or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
If you have any question or problem
concerning your system, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
