NOTIFICATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interfer-
ence to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
CAUTION
You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly
approved in this guide could void your authority to operate equipment.

FCC Radiation Exposure
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There
is no proof, however, that these low power Wireless devices are
absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio
frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used.
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating
tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have
suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research.
This device (HID-C10) has been tested and found to comply with the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines on RF energy
exposure. The maximum SAR level tested for the AK8HIDC10 has been
shown to be 0.8 W/kg at Body. This transmitter must not be
co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.

Precautions
•
To disconnect the AC power adaptor cord (mains lead), pull it out by
the plug, not the cord.
•
Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat source such as a
radiator or air duct, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive
dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
•
Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat build up. Do
not place the unit on a surface (a rug, a blanket, etc.) or near
materials (a curtain) which might block the ventilation holes.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug the unit and
have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

solution. When cleaning, unplug the unit.

•
If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit, please
contact Sony customer support.
Notes on LCD screen
•
The displayed image on the screen is not identical in picture quality
and colors with the printed image because phosphor methods or
profiles differ. Please regard the displayed image as just a reference.
Do not press against the LCD screen with excessive force. The
screen may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction.
Exposing the LCD screen to direct sunlight for long periods may
cause malfunction.
The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision
technology, so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright
points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on
the LCD screen. These points are normal in the manufacturing
process and do not affect the printing in any way.

•
•
•
Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a cold location. This is
not a malfunction.
