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!

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Warning Before any maintenance or cleaning work is carried out, DISCONNECT the appliance from the ELECTRICITY supply. This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit maintenance and recharging must therefore only be carried out by authorised technicians.
Internal cleaning
Clean the inside and accessories with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Rinse and dry thoroughly. NEVER USE DETERGENTS, ABRASIVE POWDERS, HIGHLY PERFUMED CLEANING PRODUCTS OR WAX POLISHES, TO CLEAN THE INTERIOR AS THESE WILL DAMAGE THE SURFACE AND LEAVE A STRONG SMELL. Important Do not use abrasive products. Clean the drain hole of the water trough at regular intervals and make sure that the drain hole is never obstructed, so that the defrost water may flow freely.
External cleaning
The appliance is equipped with an air inlet filter (1) and an air outlet duct (2) on the ventilation grid. Keep clean to guarantee good ventilation and good working order of the appliance. The filter can be removed and washed with water, as follows: 1. Pinch flaps (a) and (b) with fingers 2. Pull the filter down. 3. Pull the filter out. To replace the filter reverse the process. An accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption. The structure of the appliance permits the cleaning of the rear zone close to the wall, using a vacuum cleaner. 1. Remove the plinth (1), then the ventilation grid (2); 2. Carefully pull the air deflector out (3), checking that there is no water left from the defrosting process. 2
