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!

9. CHECKING THE HOTPLATE
Fit the burner crowns, caps and pan supports ensuring that they are correctly seated. Check each of the hotplate burners in turn by turning each hotplate tap to its full on position and pressing the ignition button. As soon as the burner is lit the button can be released.
10. CHECKING THE MAIN OVEN
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn the oven thermostat knob to Mk 9 and press the ignition button. As soon as the burner is alight the button can be released. There should now be a low gas rate to the burner, which is the F.S.D. by-pass rate. When the F.S.D. phial has heated up it opens the F.S.D. valve which allows the main gas supply to the oven burner. Set the oven control to Mk 2, close the oven door and check that after about 10 minutes the flame size has reduced. Turn off the control and check that the oven flames go out.
