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!

Important! At a room temperature above 16 °C, the switch (B) should be switched off again (red light goes out), since this causes higher power consumption. Important note! High room/ambient temperatures, coldest temperature selector setting, and high refrigerator compartment loading may cause continuous operation of the refrigerating unit and frosting of the refrigerator compartment rear wall. Set the temperature selector to the warmest setting (setting 4 or 5) to start the automatic defrosting sequence in the refrigerator compartment. jars in the upright position, please move the front half of the VARIO glass shelf (if �tted) to a different level. You will thus gain the necessary space to store tall items on the shelf below.
Adjusting the door rack
Fig. 18 Depending on the food stored, some door racks can be changed to other holders or removed. Take out the refrigerated food, press the door racks upwards, reposition them, and press them back into place.

Freezing fresh food and storing frozen food
You can use the freezer compartment of your fridge-freezer combination for freezing of fresh food yourself. Before �lling the fridge-freezer for the �rst time with frozen food (deep-frozen food), an inside temperature of -18 °C must have been attained. Were commend you to place a commercially available thermometer with a measurement range of +40°C/40°C in the central storage compartment or on the frozen food. If you want to freeze fresh food yourself, please observe the following instructions to be sure of obtaining the best results. Freeze only sound fresh food. Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible. The freezing capacity in 24 hours indicated on the rating plate should not be exceeded. If you want to freeze fresh food on several consecutive days, this should be limited to 2/3 to 3/4 of the indicated quantity. If you want to utilize the maximum freezing capacity, set the knob (Fig. 15) to setting "6". For smaller quantities of up to 2 kg, the knob need not be changed. Place the packaged food to be frozen in the upper storage compartment (9) (Fig. 16). Take special care not to mix already frozen foods with those not yet frozen. After around 24 hours (earlier for smaller quantities), set back the knob of the temperature selector to the normal setting (between 2 and 4). After freezing, you can place the frozen food at the appropriate freezing level. If further food is to be frozen, you must restack the frozen food in the storage compartments (8)
Adjusting the storage racks
Fig. 17a Storage shelves made either of glass or of plastic, are included, depending on which version of which model you have bought. You must push one of these shelves into the lowest set of guides, just above the containers for fruit and vegetables, and it must stay in this position. If you wish to change the distance between the other storage shelves, please raise the shelf at the back and pull it slightly forwards until it can be swivelled upwards or downwards and taken out. To insert it in a different position, please follow the same procedure in reverse.
