Precautions
When connecting the system to a plasma or projection* TV, do not leave a still
image on the TV screen for an extended period of time, as this may leave a faint
image permanently on the screen.
* Except LCD screen types
Parents are encouraged to monitor children in online activities to ensure safe and
responsible Internet usage.
Do not block any vents. To maintain good ventilation, follow the guidelines below:
Place the system at least 10 cm away from a wall surface.
Do not place on a carpet or rug with long fibres.
Do not place in a narrow or cramped space.
Do not cover with cloth.
Do not allow dust to build up on the vents.
To help ensure safe operation, regularly inspect the AC power cord. If damaged,
stop use immediately and contact the appropriate PlayStation
® customer service
helpline which can be found within every PlayStation
®, PlayStation®2, and
PLAYSTATION
®3 software manual.
Do not use a power cord other than the supplied AC power cord. Do not modify
the cord.
Do not touch the plug of the AC power cord with wet hands.
Protect the AC power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs,
expansion receptacles and the point where the cord exits from the system.
Do not place heavy items on the cord.
Do not place the AC power cord near heating equipment and do not expose the cord
to heat.
Do not allow dust or foreign matter to build up around the AC IN connector. Before
connecting or plugging in the AC power cord, check that there is no dust or foreign
matter in or on the power plug or connecting end of the cord, the electrical outlet
or the AC IN connector on the system rear. If the plug or connector becomes dirty,
wipe off with a dry cloth before connecting.
Unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet before cleaning or moving the
system, or when you do not intend to use the system for an extended period of time.
When disconnecting, grasp the power cord by the plug and pull straight out of the
electrical outlet. Never pull by the cord and do not pull out at an angle.
Do not connect the AC power cord to a voltage transformer or inverter. Connecting
the AC power cord to a voltage transformer for overseas travel or an inverter for
use in an automobile may cause heat to build up in the system and may cause burns
or a malfunction.
Use the PS3™ system and accessories according to the instructions in the product
documentation. No authorisation for the analysis or modification of the system or
accessories, or the analysis and use of its circuit configurations, is provided.
Unauthorised modification of the system or accessories will void your warranty.
There are no user serviceable components inside the PS3™ system (the supplied
hard disk may be removed but not disassembled or modified). Additionally, there is
a risk of exposure to laser radiation as well as to electrical shock.
A broadband Internet connection is required to connect to a network.
User is responsible for Internet service fees. For details, refer to the information
provided in your service contract or contact your Internet service provider.
Use only an Ethernet cable compatible with 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or
1000BASE-T networks. Do not use a cord for a standard residential telephone line
or cables of types other than those mentioned here. Using the wrong type of cord
or cable can cause more electrical current than necessary to flow through the LAN
connector, which may lead to heat build-up, fire or malfunction.
