straight out from the electrical socket. Never pull by the cord and do
not pull at an angle.
Do not use the system to play games or video when the system is
covered with any type of fabric. If you want to pause or temporarily
store the system while playing games or video, put the system in
sleep mode before placing it in the case or covering. Also do not use
the AC adaptor when covered with fabric. This may help to avoid
overheating.
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 AC adaptor and may cause burns or a

Precautions
5
The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be
easily accessible.
LCD screen
The LCD screen is made of glass and may crack if subjected to
excessive force.
Black (dark) pixels and continuously lit pixels may appear in certain
locations on the LCD screen. The appearance of such spots is a
normal occurrence associated with LCD screens and is not a sign of
a system malfunction. LCD screens are made using highly precise
technology. However, a very small number of dark pixels or
continuously lit pixels exist on each screen. Also, a distorted image
may remain on the screen for several seconds after the system has
been turned off.
Direct exposure to sunlight may damage the system's LCD screen.
Be careful when using the system outdoors or near a window.
When using the system in a cold environment, you may notice
shadows on the graphics or the screen may appear darker than usual.
This is not a malfunction, and the screen will return to normal when
the temperature goes up.
Do not leave still images displayed on the screen for an extended
period of time. This may cause a faint image to be left permanently
on the screen.
About the "pickup"
Do not touch the "pickup" located inside the disc cover of the system.
Touching the pickup may damage the system.
Pickup
Memory Stick Duo™
For best results, follow these guidelines:
Do not touch the connector area (A) with your hands or with metal
objects.
Do not press hard when writing on the memo area (B).
Do not use or store a Memory Stick Duo™ in the following:
– Places subject to high temperatures, such as in a hot vehicle
– Locations exposed to direct sunlight

Precautions
When using Memory Stick Duo™ media without an erasure
prevention switch, take care not to overwrite or delete data by
accident. If your Memory Stick Duo™ media has an erasure
prevention switch, you can prevent data from being saved, edited, or
deleted by setting the switch in the LOCK position.
Recorded data
Do not use the Memory Stick Duo™ in the following ways, as doing
so may result in data loss or corruption:
Removing the Memory Stick Duo™ or turning off the system while
it is loading or saving data or being formatted.
Using it in a location that is exposed to static electricity or electrical
interference.
If, for any reason, software or data loss or corruption occurs,
it is usually not possible to recover the software or data. It is
recommended that you regularly back up software and data.
Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. and its subsidiaries and
affiliates will not be held liable for any damages or injury in
the case of software or data loss or corruption.
In accordance with copyright law, no recorded data may be
used for purposes other than personal enjoyment without
permission from the copyright holder.
Cases and coverings
When placing the PSP® system in a commercially available case,
turn off the power or put the system in sleep mode. Do not use the
system while it is in the case. Leaving the system on, or using it while
in a case or covering may cause overheating or may damage the
system.
Put both the PSP® system and the remote control in hold mode to
help prevent unintended operation.
Never disassemble the system or
accessories
Use the PSP® system and accessories according to the instructions in this
manual. No authorization for the analysis or modification of the system,
or the analysis and use of its circuit configurations, is provided.
Disassembling will void the system warranty. Additionally, there is a risk
of fire, electrical shock or malfunction. The LCD screen, in particular,
contains dangerous, high-voltage parts, and the laser beam for reading
UMD™ may cause visual impairment if exposed directly to the eyes.
Using the access point
When using the PSP® 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 a personal access point that you are
authorized to use, or one that is available through a public wireless
LAN or hotspot service.
Overseas use
Depending on the country, there are limitations on the use of certain
types of radio waves. In some cases, use of the system may lead to a
fine or other penalty.

Precautions
7
Moisture condensation
If the PSP® system or UMD™ is brought directly from a cold location
to a warm one, moisture may condense on the lens inside the system or
on the UMD™. Should this occur, the system may not operate
properly. In this case, remove the UMD™ and turn off and unplug the
system. Do not put the UMD™ back in until the moisture evaporates
(this may take several hours). If the system still does not operate
properly, contact the PSP® service line at the number listed on your
warranty card for assistance.
UMD™ handling
Do not touch the opening on the rear of the disc (recorded surface of
the disc) with your fingers.
Do not allow dust, sand, foreign objects or other types of dirt to get
on the disc.
If the UMD™ becomes dirty, gently wipe the exterior and recorded
surfaces of the UMD™ using a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or
other chemicals.
Do not use a UMD™ that is cracked or warped or has been repaired.
The UMD™ may break inside the PSP® system, leading to injury or
malfunction.
Handling and care of exterior surfaces
Follow the guidelines listed below to help avoid deterioration or
discoloration of the PSP® system:
Do not use solvents or other chemicals to clean the exterior surface.
Do not allow the system to remain in direct contact with rubber or
vinyl products for an extended period of time.
8
Precautions
Do not use a chemically-treated cleaning cloth to wipe off the
system.
Before using the analog stick
For best results, go to
(System Settings) and
then with the "System Information" screen displayed, rotate the analog
stick in a circular motion. This will adjust the analog stick's range of
movement.
(Settings)
Cleaning
For safety reasons, unplug the AC power cord from the electrical outlet,
disconnect any other cables and remove the battery pack from the
system before cleaning.
Cleaning the exterior surface and LCD screen
Wipe gently with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the connectors
Do not use when the connectors of the system, AC adaptor or the AC
power cord are not clean. Remove the dirt with a dry cloth or cotton
swab. If used when dirty, the flow of electrical current may be
obstructed.
If the headphones or remote control connectors become dirty, this
could cause noise or interruptions in sound. Wipe the connectors
with a dry, soft cloth to keep in clean condition.
