Should you notice any abnormality in it, disconnect it from the AC outlet immediately.This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of elec-tric shock to persons.CAUTIONRISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCKDO NOT OPENThis symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and mainte-nance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

NOTIFICATIONThis 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.CAUTIONYou are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this guide could void your authority to operate equipment.

FCC Radiation ExposureThe 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. • To clean the casing, use a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent 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.
