Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.
This manual is immaculate in it's accuracy. Everything is written very clearly and easy to understand. Written by a professional who wants to convey a clear and easy to understand message!!
Great site, I always find all the manuals I need and i can't find anywhere else. PDF for the Sony PCM 3348 is complete and scan is good quality. Thank you!

USE OF APPLIANCE
Before the First Use of the Oven
Before the first use ensure that the room is well ventilated: V.M.C. (Mechanic ventilation) or opened window. Remove all packaging, both inside and outside the oven, before using the oven. Before first use, the oven should be heated without food. During this time, an unpleasant odour may be emitted. This is quite normal. 1. Remove the oven accessories. 2. Remove any adhesive labels or protective films, if there are any. 3. Heat the oven at the maximum temperature for about 45 min. This procedure should be repeated with the grill function for approximately 5-10 minutes. Clean the accessories with a soft detergent. Rinse and dry carefully.
Rating Plate
The model number of your cooker can be found on the rating plate on the lower front frame of the cooker upon opening the door. The cooker must be protected by a suitably rated fuse or circuit breaker. The rating of the cooker is given on the rating plate.
About condensation and steam
When food is heated it produces steam in the same way as a boiling kettle. The oven vents allow some of this steam to escape. However, always stand back from the oven when opening the oven door to allow any build up of steam or heat to release. If the steam comes into contact with a cool surface on the outside of the oven, e.g. a trim, it will condense and produce water droplets. This is quite normal and is not a fault with the oven. To prevent discolouration, regularly wipe away condensation and also soilage from surfaces.
Cookware
Use any ovenproof cookware, withstand temperatures of 250°C. which will
Oven dishes, etc. should not be placed directly on the oven base. During cooking in the oven the oven door is hot. Take care that children do not play near it.
