• Do not touch or insert foreign objects into the connectors of the

system or accessories.

• Do not touch the system or AC Adaptor for an extended period of

time while in use. Depending on the conditions of use, the system or
the AC Adaptor may reach temperatures of 40° C or more. Extended
contact under these conditions may cause low-temperature burns*.

* Low-temperature burns are burns that occur when the skin is in contact

with objects of the AC relatively low temperatures (40° C or more) for
an extended period of time.

• When connecting the system to a plasma or projection* TV, do not

leave a still image on the TV screen for an extended period of time,
as this may leave a faint image permanently on the screen.

* Except LCD screen types

• Do not touch the plug of the AC Power Cord with wet hands.
• Do not touch the AC Power Cord, AC Adaptor or the system, if

connected to an electrical outlet, during an electrical storm.

• Do not use a power source other than the supplied (or approved

replacement) Battery Pack, AC Adaptor and AC Power Cord.

• Do not allow dust or foreign matter to build up around the system or

accessory connectors. If there is dust or foreign matter on the
system's connectors or the AC Power Cord, wipe it off with a dry
cloth before connecting. Dust or other matter on the connectors can
result in fire or electrical shock.

• Unplug the AC Power Cord from the electrical outlet, disconnect any

other cables and remove the Battery Pack from the system before
cleaning or when you do not intend to use the system for an extended
period of time.

• Protect the AC Power Cord from being walked on or compressed

particularly at plugs and the point where they exit from the system.

• When disconnecting the AC Power Cord, hold it by the plug and pull

straight out from the electrical socket. Never pull by the cord and do
not pull at an angle.

• Do not use the system to play games, video or music when the

system is covered with any type of fabric. If you want to pause or
temporarily store the system while playing games, video or music,
put the system in Sleep Mode before placing it in the case or
covering.

• Do not connect the AC Power Cord to a voltage transformer or

inverter. Connecting the AC Power Cord to a voltage transformer for
overseas travel or an inverter for use in an automobile may cause
heat to build up in the AC Adaptor and may cause burns or a
malfunction.

• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be

easily accessible.

• The LCD screen is made of glass and may crack if subjected to

excessive force.

• Black (dark) pixels and continuously lit pixels may appear in certain

locations on the LCD screen. The appearance of such spots is a
normal occurrence associated with LCD screens and is not a sign of
a system malfunction. LCD screens are made using highly precise
technology. However, a very small number of dark pixels or
continuously lit pixels exist on each screen. Also, a distorted image
may remain on the screen for several seconds after the system has
been turned off.

• Direct exposure to sunlight may damage the system's LCD screen.
• When using the system in a cold environment, you may notice

shadows on the graphics or the screen may appear darker than usual.
This is not a malfunction, and the screen will return to normal when
the temperature rises.
