Precautions

Notes on Headphones

Concerning road safety

Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headsets at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people around you.

Taking Care of Your Walkman

• Before opening or closing the cassette holder, be sure to wipe off water, dust or sand on the exterior of the Walkman.
• Avoid exposing the Walkman to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock. Never leave the Walkman in a car parked in the sun.
• Since water in the headphones jack may cause rust, cover it with the attached rubber cap when the headphones are not in use.
  • The supplied headphones are not meant to be immersed in water or come in continuous contact with water. If they are accidentally dropped into water or get wet, dry them with a soft cloth. Never use an electric hair dryer.
• If the Walkman or the headphones are immersed in salt water, be sure to wash them in non-running fresh water. Never wash them under running water, and never use soap or detergent.
• Prolonged use may contaminate the tape head. If sound drop-out or excessive noise occurs, clean the head and tape path with alcohol.

Cleaning the head and tape path

• Clean the headphones plug periodically for optimum sound.
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean the case.

About the rubber packing

• Any sand or dust on the rubber packing will prevent the cassette holder from closing tightly, and water may leak in. Brush off the dust once in a while.
  • We recommend the packing to be changed every year. Replacement packing is available at an authorized Sony Service Facility.

If you have any question or problem concerning your Walkman, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
