material side does not conform to the  
Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on  
this product is not guaranteed.

conform to the CD standard and may not  
be playable by this product.

On safety  
On the speaker system  
is speaker system is not magnetically  
shielded, and the picture on nearby TV  
sets may become magnetically distorted.  
In this situation, turn off the TV, wait  
15 to 30 minutes, and turn it back on.  
If there is no improvement, move the  
speakers far away from the TV.  
Completely disconnect the power  
cord (mains lead) from the wall socket  
(mains) if it is not going to be used  
for an extended period of time. When  
unplugging the unit, always grip the  
plug. Never pull the cord itself.  
Should any solid object or liquid get  
into the system, unplug the system, and  
have it checked by qualified personnel  
before operating it again.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Clean this system with a soſt cloth  
slightly moistened with a mild detergent  
solution. Do not use any type of abrasive  
pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as  
thinner, benzine, or alcohol.  
e AC power cord can be changed  
only by a qualified service facility.  
On placement  
Do not place the system in an inclined  
position or in locations that are  
extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or  
humid or lacking adequate ventilation,  
or subject to vibration, direct sunlight  
or a bright light.  
Be careful when placing the unit  
or speakers on surfaces that have  
been specially treated (for example,  
with wax, oil, polish) as staining or  
discoloration of the surface may result.  
If the system is brought directly  
from a cold to a warm location or is  
placed in a very damp room, moisture  
may condense on the lens inside the  
CD player, and cause the system to  
malfunction. In this situation, remove  
the disc, and leave the system turned  
on for about an hour until the moisture  
evaporates.  
On heat buildup  
Heat buildup on the unit during  
operation is normal and is not cause  
for alarm.  
Do not touch the cabinet if it has been  
used continuously at a high volume  
because the cabinet may have become  
hot.  
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

technology  
Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-  
range wireless technology linking digital  
devices, such as personal computers and  
digital still cameras. Using the Bluetooth  
wireless technology, you can operate the  
units involved within a range of about 10  
meters.

Design and specifications are subject to  
change without notice.  
e Bluetooth wireless technology is  
commonly used between two devices,  
but a single device can be connected to  
multiple devices.  
You do not need wires to get connected  
as you do with a USB connection, and  
you do not need to place the devices face  
to face as you do with wireless infrared  
technology. You can use the technology  
with one Bluetooth device in your bag  
or pocket.  
Standby power consumption:  
0.5 W  
Halogenated flame retardants

Notes  
Effective communication range  
is system supports security functions that  
comply with the Bluetooth specification  
as a means of ensuring security during  
communication using Bluetooth technology.  
However, this security may be insufficient  
depending on the setting contents and  
other factors, so always be careful when  
performing communication using Bluetooth  
technology.  
Sony cannot be held liable in any way  
for damages or other loss resulting from  
information leaks during communication  
using Bluetooth technology.  
Bluetooth devices should be used within  
approximately 10 meters (unobstructed  
distance) of each other. e effective  
communication range may become  
shorter under the following conditions.  
When a person, metal object, wall  
or other obstruction is between the  
devices with a Bluetooth connection  
Locations where a wireless LAN is  
installed  
Around microwave ovens that are in  
use  
Locations where other electromagnetic  
waves occur  
Bluetooth communication is not necessarily  
guaranteed with all Bluetooth devices that  
have the same profile as this system.  
Bluetooth devices connected with this system  
must comply with the Bluetooth specification  
prescribed by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc., and  
must be certified to comply. However, even  
when a device complies with the Bluetooth  
specification, there may be cases where  
the characteristics or specifications of the  
Bluetooth device make it impossible to  
connect, or may result in different control  
methods, display or operation.  
Noise may occur or the audio may  
cut off depending on the Bluetooth  
device connected with this system,  
the communications environment, or  
surrounding conditions.  
Effects of other devices  
Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN  
(IEEE 802.11b/g) use the same frequency  
band (2.4 GHz). When using your  
Bluetooth device near a device with  
wireless LAN capability, electromagnetic  
interference may occur. is could result  
in lower data transfer rates, noise, or  
inability to connect. If this happens, try  
the following remedies:  
Try connecting this system and  
Bluetooth mobile phone or Bluetooth  
device when you are at least 10  
meters away from the wireless LAN  
equipment.  
Turn off the power to the wireless LAN  
equipment when using your Bluetooth  
device within 10 meters.  
Effects on other devices  
e radio waves broadcast by this system  
may interfere with the operation of some  
medical devices. Since this interference  
may result in malfunction, always turn  
off the power on this system, Bluetooth  
mobile phone and Bluetooth device in  
the following locations:  
In hospitals, on trains, in airplanes,  
at gas stations, and any place where  
flammable gasses may be present  
Near automatic doors or fire alarms
