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!

Food Storage & Energy Saving Ideas
FOOD STORAGE IDEAS
Fresh Food Storage � The fresh food compartment should be kept between 1.1° C and 4.4° C with an optimum temperature of 2.8° C. � Avoid overcrowding the fridge-freezer shelves. This reduces the circulation of air around the food and results in uneven cooling. Fruits and Vegetables � Storage in the crisper drawers traps moisture to help preserve the fruit and vegetable quality for longer time periods. Meat � Raw meat and poultry should be wrapped securely so leakage and contamination of other foods or surfaces does not occur. Frozen Food Storage � The freezer compartment should be kept at 0° F or lower. � A freezer operates most efficiently when it is at least 2/3 full. Packaging Foods for Freezing � To minimize dehydration and quality deterioration, use aluminum foil, freezer wrap, freezer bags or airtight containers. Force as much air out of the packages as possible and seal them tightly. Trapped air can cause food to dry out, change color, and develop an off-flavor (freezer burn). � Wrap fresh meats and poultry with suitable freezer wrap prior to freezing. � Do not refreeze meat that has completely thawed. Loading the Freezer � Avoid adding too much warm food to the freezer at one time. This overloads the freezer, slows the rate of freezing, and can raise the temperature of frozen foods. � Leave a space between the packages, so cold air can circulate freely, allowing food to freeze as quickly as possible. � Avoid storing hard-to-freeze foods such as ice cream and orange juice on the freezer door shelves. These foods are best stored in the freezer interior where the temperature varies less.
ENERGY SAVING IDEAS
� Locate the fridge-freezer in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the fridgefreezer next to heat-producing appliances such as a cooker, range, oven, or dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the fridge-freezer operate more efficiently. Level the fridge-freezer so that the doors close tightly. Refer to this Use & Care Manual for the suggested temperature control settings. Do not overcrowd the fridge-freezer or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the fridge-freezer to run longer and use more energy. Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the fridge-freezer. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit. Organize the fridge-freezer to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
