Preparation
Precautions
• Unplug the VID-P150 from the wall outlet when it is
not being used for a long period of time. To
disconnect the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug.
Never pull it out by the cord itself.
• The fluorescent lamps can get hot during operation.
Do not touch the lamps during operation and when
collapsing the VID-P150.
• Clean the cabinet with a soft cloth lightly moistened
with a mild detergent solution. Never use any type of
solvent such as alcohol or benzine, which might
damage the finish.
• Clean the lens with an air spray or soft dry cloth,
taking care not to scratch it.
• When the fluorescent lamps flash or get darkened, the
fluorescent lamps should be replaced with new ones.
In this case, contact your Sony dealer.
Preparing the Remote
Commander
Insert two R6 (size AA) batteries by matching the '

Note
When the batteries for the remote commander are
weak, the remote control range shortens. When this
happens, replace both batteries.
