Notes on this manual
• This manual supports PEG-TJ37 and PEG-TJ27.
– The illustrations in this manual are for PEG-TJ37, unless specified otherwise.
– Differences between PEG-TJ37 and PEG-TJ27 are specified in each corresponding
section.

LCD display and camera lens
The LCD of your CLIÉ handheld is designed with precision technology. In some cases,
individual pixels may remain lit or may not light at all. Brightness of the display may
appear inconsistent, depending on the angle of view. Such anomalies are caused by the
nature of the LCD and do not indicate a malfunction.
Please note that Sony does not guarantee a replacement or refund for such cases.
Do not expose the LCD or camera lens to direct sunlight for prolonged periods. It may
result in a malfunction. Do not store your CLIÉ handheld in areas subject to sunlight, such
as near windows, and be careful when using outdoors.
The built-in camera
Bright or dark pixels may appear on pictures taken with the built-in camera.
This phenomenon is not a malfunction and occurs due to the nature of the image sensor
of the built-in camera.
Before taking pictures (CLIE Camera)
Sony recommends taking a test picture to confirm settings, etc., before actual shooting.
Take a test shot, save it, and view it to check the result. Experiment with the camera for
best results.
No guarantee for lost or damaged data
Sony does not provide guarantee against lost or damaged data.
