vertical position.
Caution
• Do not use the system in a closed cabinet or other locations where heat
may build up. Doing so may cause the system to overheat and may lead
to fire, injury or malfunction.
• If the system’s internal temperature becomes elevated, the power indicator
will flash alternately in red and green. In this case, turn off the system
(page 16) and leave it unused for a while. After the system cools

Hint
Normally, audio cannot be output simultaneously from multiple output
connectors. For example, if your PS3™ system is connected to a TV via an
HDMI cable and to an audio device via an optical digital cable and "Digital Out

Hints
• If your TV is not equipped with an HDMI input connector, use a video output
cable of the correct type for your TV ( page 7) to connect it to the PS3™
system directly.
• If a device is connected to the PS3™ system via an HDMI Cable, do not turn
off the device while the system is turned on (power indicator is lit solid
green). Doing so may cause sound distortions or produce abnormal sounds.
Step 3: Connect an Ethernet Cable
Using a commercially available Ethernet cable, you can connect the
system to the Internet. For details on network settings, see " Adjusting
network settings " ( page 24).
Caution
The system supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T networks. Do
not connect a standard telephone line or other types of cords or cables that
are not compatible with the system directly to the LAN connector on the
system, as this may cause heat build-up, fire or malfunction.
