Sony PCM-D1 - Manual (Page 5)

Power-Cord Protection – Route the power
cord so that it is not likely to be walked on
or pinched by items placed upon or against
them, paying particular attention to the
plugs, receptacles, and the point where the
cord exits from the appliance.
Lightning – For added protection for this
appliance during a lightning storm, or when
it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the appliance
due to lightning and powerline surges.
Attachments – Do not use attachments not
recommended by Sony, as they may cause
hazards.
Cleaning – Unplug the appliance from the
wall outlet before cleaning or polishing it. Do
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Use a cloth lightly dampened with water for
cleaning the exterior of the appliance. Clean
the appliance only as recommended by
Sony.
Object and Liquid Entry – Never push
objects of any kind into the appliance
through openings as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short out parts
that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the
appliance.
SERVICE
Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the
appliance from the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:

or frayed.
– If liquid has been spilled or objects have
fallen into the appliance.
– If the appliance has been exposed to rain
or water.

Improper adjustment of other controls may
result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the appliance to normal operation.
– If the appliance has been subject to
excessive shock by being dropped, or the
cabinet has been damaged.
Servicing – Do not attempt to service the
appliance yourself as opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing
to qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts – When replacement
parts are required, be sure the service
technician has used replacement parts
specified by Sony that have the same
characteristics as the original parts.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,
electric shock, or other hazards.
Safety Check – Upon completion of any
service or repairs to the appliance, ask the
service technician to perform routine safety
checks (as specified by Sony) to determine
that the appliance is in safe operating
condition.
