Precautions
On safety
• PVM-9045QM/9042QM: Operate the unit on 100 -
240 V AC or 12 V DC. For the AC operation, use
only the supplied AC power cord or the AC power
adaptor recommended (not supplied). Do not use any
other type.
For the battery operation, use only the NP-1B battery
pack and BP-L60A/L90A with DC-L10 (not
supplied). Do not use any other batteries.
• PVM-9040ME: Operate the unit only on 100 - 240 V
AC. Use only the supplied AC power cord. Do not
use any other type.
• Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be
used for several days.
• To disconnect the AC power cord, pull it out by the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
On installation
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal heat
build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces (rugs,
blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies)
that may block the ventilation holes.
• Do not install the unit near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or
shock.
• Keep the unit away from a loudspeaker or motor, as
the picture may be affected.
On cleaning
Clean the unit with a slightly dampened soft cloth. Use
a mild household detergent. Never use strong solvents
such as thinner or benzine as they might damage the
finish of the cabinet.
As a safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning
it.
On repacking
Retain the original carton and packing materials for
safe transport of this unit in the future.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your
authorized Sony dealer.
ATTENTION –
When the product is
installed in a rack:
a) Elevated operating ambient temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack
environment may be greater than room ambient.
Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the manufacturer's maximum rated
ambient temperature of 0 to +35°C (32 to 95°F )
(Tmra).
b) Reduced air flow
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be
such that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
c) Mechanical loading
Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be
such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due
to uneven mechanical loading.
d) Circuit overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect
that overloading of circuits might have on
overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate
ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
e) Reliable earthing
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment
should be maintained. Particular attention should be
given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power
strips).
f) Gap keeping
The upper and lower gaps of rack-mounted
equipment should be least 44 mm (1
GB
3
/
inches).
