In case of products that for safety, performance or data
integrity reasons require a permanent connection with
an incorporated battery, this battery should be replaced
by qualified service staff only.
To ensure that the battery will be treated properly, hand
over the product at end-of-life to the applicable
collection point for the recycling of electrical and
electronic equipment.
• Do not place the player in a place where medical
equipment is in use. It may cause a malfunction of
medical instruments.
• If you use a pacemaker or other medical device,
consult your physician or the 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).
For all other batteries, please view the section on how
to remove the battery from the product safely. Hand the
battery over to the applicable collection point for the
recycling of waste batteries.
• 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.
For more detailed information about recycling of this
product or battery, please contact your local Civic
Office, your household waste disposal service or the
shop where you purchased the product.
Precautions
• Take out any discs 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.
• This unit operates on 220–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Check that the unit’s operating voltage is identical
with your local power supply.
• To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.
• Install this unit so that the mains lead can be
unplugged from the wall socket immediately in the
event of trouble.
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.
Precautions
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits set out in the EMC Directive
using a connection cable shorter than 3 metres.
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 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.
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, your ears and the speakers may
be damaged when a peak level section is played.
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.
• Do not install the player in an inclined position. It
is designed to be operated in a horizontal position
only.
• Do not place metal objects in front of the front
panel. It may limit reception of radio waves.
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.

On replacement of parts
In the events that this player is repaired, repaired
parts may be collected for reuse or recycling
purposes.
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.
On connecting to the HDMI OUT jack
Observe the following as improper handling may
damage the HDMI OUT jack and the connector.
• Carefully align the HDMI OUT jack on the rear
of the player and the HDMI connector by
checking their shapes. Make sure the connector is
not upside down or tilted.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your player, please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
Copy Protection
Please be advised of the advanced content
protection systems used in both Blu-ray Disc™ and
DVD media. These systems, called AACS
(Advanced Access Content System) and CSS
(Content Scramble System), may contain some
restrictions on playback, analogue output, and other
similar features. The operation of this product and
the restrictions placed may vary depending on the
date of purchase, as the governing board of the
AACS may adopt or change its restriction rules
after the time of purchase.
• 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.
On watching 3D video images
Some people may experience discomfort (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 product and (ii) our
website* for the latest information. The vision of
young children (especially those under six years
old) is still under development. Consult your doctor
(such as a pediatrician or eye doctor) before
allowing young children to watch 3D video images.
Adults should supervise young children to ensure
they follow the recommendations listed above.

About wireless LAN security
Since communication via the wireless LAN
function is established by radio waves, the
wireless signal may be susceptible to
interception. To protect wireless
communication, this player supports various
security functions. Be sure to correctly
configure the security settings in accordance
with your network environment.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available disc/lens cleaners, or
anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.
• If you have printed the disc’s label, dry the label
before playing.
• Do not use the following discs.
– A lens cleaning disc.
– A disc that has a non-standard shape (e.g., card,
heart).
– A disc with a label or sticker on it.
– A disc that has cellophane tape or sticker
adhesive on it.
• Do not resurface the playing side of a disc to
remove surface scratches.
No Security
Although you can easily make settings,
anyone can intercept wireless
communication or intrude into your wireless
network, even without any sophisticated
tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of
unauthorized access or interception of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to communications to
prevent outsiders from intercepting
communications or intruding into your
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security
technology that enables older devices, which
do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology developed to
correct for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP
assures a higher security level than WEP.
