Notes on the touch screen

Notes regarding the touch screen

• Your “WALKMAN” uses a capacitive touch screen. Tap the screen directly with your fingertip. Do not scratch it or tap it with sharp objects such as a needle, pen, or fingernail. You cannot operate the touch screen with a stylus.

• If you touch the touch screen with gloved fingers, it may operate incorrectly or may not operate at all.

• Do not operate your “WALKMAN” with objects on the touch screen.

• If the touch screen is touched by objects other than your fingertip, it may not react correctly.

• Do not put the touch screen close to other electrical devices. Electrostatic discharges can make the touch screen malfunction.

• If there are water droplets on the touch screen, or if you touch it with wet fingertips, the touch screen may not react correctly.

• Do not put the touch screen close to water. The touch screen may malfunction in humid conditions or when exposed to water.

Notes regarding the LCD screen

• Do not press hard on the LCD screen. Doing so may cause unevenness or damage.

• Do not leave the LCD screen in direct sunlight. Be sure to block direct sunlight when using your “WALKMAN” near a window.

• Using your “WALKMAN” in low temperature conditions may produce a residual image on the LCD screen. This does not indicate a malfunction. The screen will return to normal when your “WALKMAN” returns to normal temperature.

• A residual image may appear on the LCD screen if the same image is displayed for an extended period of time. The residual image will eventually disappear.

• The LCD screen becomes warm during operation. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

• The LCD screen is manufactured using high-precision technology. You may, however, see tiny black points and/or bright points on the LCD screen. This is a normal result of the manufacturing process and does not indicate a malfunction.

• The LCD screen is made of glass. If the glass is damaged (cracked, etc.), do not touch the touch screen nor try to repair it by yourself. Handle the LCD screen carefully as it is vulnerable to dropping or mechanical shock. The warranty does not cover any damages caused by customers due to incorrect handling.
