Precautions

Condensation

If the unit is suddenly taken from a cold to a warm location, or if ambient temperature suddenly rises, moisture may form on the outer surface of the unit and/or inside of the unit. This is known as condensation. If condensation occurs, turn off the unit and wait until the condensation clears before operating the unit. Operating the unit while condensation is present may damage the unit.

Security

  • SONY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM A FAILURE TO IMPLEMENT PROPER SECURITY MEASURES ON TRANSMISSION DEVICES, UNAVOIDABLE DATA LEAKS RESULTING FROM TRANSMISSION SPECIFICATIONS, OR SECURITY PROBLEMS OF ANY KIND.
  • Depending on the operating environment, unauthorized third parties on the network may be able to access the unit. When connecting the unit to the network, be sure to confirm that the network is protected securely.
  • This unit is equipped with a maintenance function performed via a network. Maintenance may be performed with your consent.
  • From a safety standpoint, when using the unit connected with the network, it is strongly recommended to access the Control window via a Web browser and change the access limitation settings from the factory preset values. Also, it is recommended that you set a password with a sufficiently long character string that is  hard to guess by others, and that you store it safely.
  • Do not browse any other website in the Web browser while making settings or after making settings. Since the login status remains in the Web browser, close the Web browser when you complete the settings to prevent unauthorized third parties from using the unit or harmful programs from running.
  • When connecting this product to a network, connect via a system that provides a protection function, such as a router or firewall. If connected without such protection, security issues may occur.

Precautions on viewing and displaying 3D images

  • You should only use the 3D glasses for watching 3D video images.
  • While watching 3D images, a viewer may experience unpleasant symptoms such as eye fatigue, tiredness, and feeling sick. When watching 3D images, it is advisable to take breaks periodically. The length and frequency of the necessary breaks will vary depending on the content being displayed and the physical condition of the viewer.
    If the viewer watching 3D images experiences any unpleasant symptoms, stop watching 3D images until the viewer recovers, and consider recommending that the viewer consult a doctor if necessary.
    Note that the vision of children (especially those under 6 years old) is still in the developmental stage.
    Adults should supervise their children to ensure that they are following the above precautions. If the content is watched at a closer distance than expected, the fatigue and other effects described above may be more pronounced. Take measures such as considering the length, content, and interval of the displayed content, and posting of warning signs.
  • Not for viewing by children without proper adult supervision.

Precautions on the environment when displaying 3D images

Flickering or flashing lights may be seen when using 3D glasses under some fluorescent lights or LED bulbs.
Very rarely, this flickering or flashing light may cause symptoms of light-sensitive seizures such as convulsions or fainting.
This flickering or flashing light may cause symptoms of convulsions or fainting, even in those who have never experienced such symptoms before.
Do not turn on these lights (light sources) when using 3D glasses.
Be sure to inform the contractor who undertakes the installation or maintenance work about these effects.

Precautions regarding the effect on medical devices

The display cabinet uses strong magnets. There are areas where the magnetic flux density is likely to be 300 mT or more on the surface that is touched during installation or maintenance work.
This may seriously affect medical devices such as defibrillators, pacemakers, and variable pressure shunts to treat hydrocephalus.
Keep users of these medical devices away from areas where installation and maintenance work is being performed or where display cabinets are stored.
There is also magnetic flux leakage from the viewing surface, which may affect users of these medical devices when they approach the display cabinet.
Take measures such as posting warning signs depending on the installation conditions. Be sure to inform the contractor who undertakes the installation or maintenance work about these effects. (ZRD-C12A/ZRD-C15A/ZRD-B12A/ZRD-B15A only)

Precautions on visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) and staggering

Depending on the displayed content, display size, and viewing location (distance), a viewer may experience VIMS symptoms such as staggering or nausea.
The symptoms of VIMS may be more pronounced after some time rather than during or immediately after viewing. Take measures such as posting warning signs.
Furthermore, the movement of a wide part of the image to the same direction may induce staggering. Pay close attention to the displayed contents and installation location (direction) when installing the product in a position where it can be seen from stairs, escalators, landings, or other places that are considered dangerous when staggering.

Other precautions

  • The fan is a consumable part that will need periodic replacement.
    When operating at room temperature, a normal replacement cycle will be about 4 years. However, this replacement cycle represents only a general guideline and does not imply that the life expectancy of this part is guaranteed. For details on parts replacement, contact your dealer.
  • The life expectancy of the electrolytic capacitor is about 5 years under normal operating temperatures and normal usage (8 hours per day; 25 days per month). If usage exceeds the above normal usage frequency, the life expectancy may be reduced correspondingly.
