Precautions
Never disassemble or modify the system or accessories
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.
Network
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.
Wireless networking feature
The 2.4 GHz range of radio waves used by the wireless networking feature of
this product is a range shared by various devices. This product has been
designed to minimise the effect of other devices using the same range.
However, in some cases interference from other devices may reduce the
connection speed, shorten the signal range or cause the connection to be
terminated unexpectedly.
When using the PS3™ system’s scan function to select a wireless LAN access
point, access points that are not intended for public use may be displayed.
Only connect to an access point that you are authorised to use, or one that is
available through a public wireless LAN or hotspot service.
Moisture condensation
If the system or disc is brought directly from a cold location to a warm one,
moisture may condense on the lens inside the system or on the disc. Should this
occur, the system may not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and
turn off and unplug the system. Do not put the disc back in until the moisture
evaporates (this may take several hours). If the system still does not operate
properly, contact the appropriate PlayStation
®
customer service helpline which
can be found within every PlayStation
®
3 software manual.
Cleaning
For safety reasons, before cleaning the system or connected accessories,
disconnect the AC power cord from the electrical outlet.
