On placement
Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the

Do not place the player on a soft surface
such as a rug that might block the ventilation
holes.
Do not install this player in a confined space,
such as a bookshelf or similar unit.
Do not place the player in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, or mechanical
shock.
Do not place the player outdoors, in
vehicles, on ships, or on other vessels.
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.

manufacturer of your medical device before
using the wireless LAN function.
This player should be installed and operated
with a minimum distance of at least 20 cm or
more between the player and a person’s
body (excluding extremities: hands, wrists,
feet and ankles).
Do not place heavy or unstable objects on
the player.
Do not place any objects other than discs on
the disc tray. Doing so may cause damage to
the player or the object.
Take out any discs from the tray when you
move the player. If you don’t, the disc may
be damaged.
Disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead)
and all other cables from the player when
you move the player.
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.
Disconnect the player from the wall outlet if
you are not going to use the player for a long
time. To disconnect the AC power cord
(mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull
the cord.
Observe following points to prevent the AC
power cord (mains lead) being damaged. Do
not use the AC power cord (mains lead) if it
is damaged, as doing so may result in an
electric shock or fire.
– Do not pinch the AC power cord (mains
lead) between the player and wall, shelf,
etc.
– Do not put anything heavy on the AC
power cord (mains lead) or pull on the AC
power cord (mains lead) itself.

section with very low level inputs or no audio
signals. Your ears and the speakers may be
damaged when the sound level reaches the
peak.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a
soft cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad,
scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaners
Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners
(including wet or spray types). These may
cause the apparatus to malfunction.

rear of the player and the HDMI connector
by checking their shapes. Make sure the
connector is not upside down or tilted.
Be sure to disconnect the HDMI cable when
moving the player.
Hold the HDMI connector straight when
connecting or disconnecting the HDMI
cable. Do not twist or force the HDMI
connector into the HDMI OUT jack.

(such as eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while
watching 3D video images. Sony recommends
that all viewers take regular breaks while
watching 3D video images. The length and
frequency of necessary breaks will vary from
person to person. You must decide what works
best. If you experience any discomfort, you
should stop watching the 3D video images
until the discomfort ends; consult a doctor if
you believe necessary. You should also
review (i) the instruction manual and/or the
caution message of any other device used
with, or Blu-ray Disc contents played with this

ensure they follow the recommendations
listed above.

concerning your player, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
