The placement distance between the unit and your wireless LAN router differs based on your usage environment. If the system cannot connect to the network or the network connection is unstable, place the unit and the wireless LAN router closer to each other. When you cannot place the unit and the wireless LAN router closer to each other, use the optional USB Wireless LAN Adapter (Sony UWA-BR100* only).
To connect to a wireless LAN using a 5 GHz frequency band, you need the optional USB Wireless LAN Adapter
(Sony UWA-BR100* only).

gb_book.book Page 66 Thursday, November 25, 2010 6:04 PM masterpage:Left specdef v20070110 Additional Information Precautions On safety
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on the system, or place the system near water, such as near a bathtub or shower room. Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the system and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
Do not touch the AC power cord (mains lead) with wet hands. Doing so may cause an electric shock. On power sources
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by the cord. On placement
Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction. However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do not place the system in a confined space where ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.
Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything on the system. The system is equipped with a high power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked, the system can overheat and malfunction.
Do not place the system on surfaces (rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may block the ventilation slots.
Do not install the system in a confined space, such as a bookshelf or similar unit.
Do not install the system near heat sources such as radiators, air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or shock.
Do not install the system in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.
Keep the system and discs away from components with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or large loudspeakers.
Do not place heavy objects on the system.
Do not place metal objects in front of the front panel. They may limit reception of radio waves.
Do not place the system in a place where medical equipment is in use. It may cause a malfunction of medical equipment.
If you use a pacemaker or other medical device, consult your physician or the manufacturer of your medical device before using the wireless LAN function. On operation
If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lenses inside the unit. Should this occur, the system may not operate properly. In this case, remove the disc and leave the system turned on for about half an hour until the moisture evaporates.
When you move the system, take out any disc. If you do not, the disc may be damaged.
If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level section is suddenly played. On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine. If you have any questions or problems concerning your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer. On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaners Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners
(including wet or spray types). These may cause the apparatus to malfunction. On replacement of parts
In the events that this system is repaired, repaired parts may be collected for reuse or recycling purposes. On your TVs color
If the speakers should cause the TV screen to have color irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist, place the speakers further away from the TV set. 66US model name [BDV-E780W/BDV-E980W]

If you leave the still video image or on-screen display image displayed on your TV for an extended period of time you risk permanent damage to your television screen. Projection televisions are especially susceptible to this. On moving the system
Before moving the system, make sure that there is no disc inserted, and remove the AC power cord (mains lead) from the wall outlet (mains). Notes about the Discs On handling discs
To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.
Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as the temperature may rise considerably inside the car.
After playing, store the disc in its case. On cleaning
Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs. This system can only play a standard circular disc. Using neither standard nor circular discs
(e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause a malfunction. Do not use a disc that has a commercially available accessory attached, such as a label or ring. model name [BDV-E780W/BDV-E980W]

There is no picture when you make an HDMI cable connection. 3D images from the HDMI (IN 1) or HDMI (IN 2) jack do not appear on the TV screen. There is no picture or output resolution is low when you make a component video cable connection. No picture appears when the video output resolution selected in [Output Video Format] is incorrect. The dark area of the picture is too dark/the bright area is too bright or unnatural. The picture is not output correctly. Picture noise appears. An image is not displayed on the entire TV screen. Color irregularity occurs on the TV screen. There is no picture after playing a video/photo file on the iPod/
iPhone. Problems and solutions
Check the output method on your system (page 22).
The unit is connected to an input device that is not HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) compliant (HDMI on the front panel does not light up) (page 22).
Depending on the TV or video component, 3D images may not appear.
When playing a BD-ROM, a high-resolution image may not be output because of copy protection limitations. We recommend to make a HDMI connection
(page 22).
Press and hold N and VOL on the unit for more than 5 seconds to reset the video output resolution to the lowest resolution.
Set [Picture Quality Mode] to [Standard] (default) (page 40).
Check the [Output Video Format] settings in [Screen Settings] (page 61).
If the analog and digital signals are output at the same time, set [BD/DVD-
ROM 1080/24p Output] in [Screen Settings] to [Off] (page 61).
For BD-ROMs, check the [BD/DVD-ROM 1080/24p Output] settings in
[Screen Settings] (page 61).
Clean the disc.
If the picture output from your system goes through your VCR to get to your TV, the copy-protection signal applied to some BD/DVD programs could affect picture quality. If you still experience problems even when you connect your unit directly to your TV, try connecting your unit to the other input jacks.
Check the setting of [TV Type] in [Screen Settings](page 60).
The aspect ratio on the disc is fixed.
If the speakers are used with a CRT-based TV or projector, install the speakers at least 1.0 ft (0.3 meters) from the TV set.
If the color irregularity persists, turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30 minutes.
Make sure that no magnetic object (magnetic latch on a TV stand, health care device, toy, etc.) is placed near the speakers.
