On safety

Do not operate the unit while driving, cycling
or operating any motorized vehicle.

On handling

• Do not leave the unit in a location near

heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical
shock.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into

the unit, remove the battery and have the
unit checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.

• When using your linear PCM recorder,

remember to follow the precautions below
in order to avoid warping the cabinet
or causing the linear PCM recorder to
malfunction.

– Do not sit down with the linear PCM

recorder in your back pocket.

– Do not put your linear PCM recorder into

a bag with the headphones/earphones
cord wrapped around it and subject the
bag to strong impact.

• Be careful not to allow water to splash

on the unit. The unit is not waterproof.
In particular, be careful in the following
situations.

– When you have the unit in your pocket

and go to the bathroom, etc.
When you bend down, the unit may drop
into the water and may get wet.

– When you use the unit in an environment

where the unit is exposed to rain, snow,
or humidity.

– In circumstances where you get sweaty.

If you touch the unit with wet hands or if
you put the unit in the pocket of sweaty
clothes, the unit may get wet.

• Listening with this unit at high volume may

affect your hearing.

• For traffic safety, do not use this unit while

driving or cycling.

• Do not use this unit at a place where the

inability to hear surrounding sounds may
present a danger.

• You may feel pain in your ears if you use the

headphones when the ambient air is very
dry.
This is not because of a malfunction of the
headphones, but because of static electricity
accumulated in your body.
You can reduce static electricity by wearing
non-synthetic clothes that prevent the
emergence of static electricity.

On noise

• Noise may be heard when the unit is placed

near an AC power source, a fluorescent
lamp, a smartphone, or a mobile phone
during recording or playback.

• Noise may be recorded when an object, such

as your finger, etc., rubs or scratches the unit
during recording.

On maintenance

To clean the exterior, use a soft cloth slightly
moistened in water. Then use a soft dry cloth
to wipe the exterior. Do not use alcohol,
benzine or thinner.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.

On using the SD card

• Be sure to use the linear PCM recorder to

format an SD card (page 71). Operation
of the SD card formatted by any device
other than the linear PCM recorder, such as
a computer, is not assured when used with
the recorder.
If you format an SD card with stored data,
the data will be erased. Make sure that no
valuable data is stored on the SD card before
you format it.
