Precautions

On batteries

- Do not carry dry batteries with coins or other metallic objects. It can generate heat if the positive and negative terminals of the batteries are accidentally contacted by a metallic object. - When you are not going to use your Walkman for a long time, remove the battery to prevent damage from battery leakage and corrosion.

On handling

- Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or sand, moisture, rain, mechanical shock, or in a car with its windows closed.

- We do not recommend the use of tape longer than 90 minutes. They are very thin and tend to be stretched easily. This may cause malfunction of the unit or sound deterioration.

- The LCD display may become hard to see or slow down when using the unit at high temperatures (above 40°C) or at low temperatures (below 0°C). At room temperature, the display will return to its normal operating condition.

- If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a cassette.
