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!

Cleaning and maintenance
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged (pump is blocked, filter or drain hose are clogged), proceed as follows to empty out the machine: � pull out the plug from the power socket; � close the water taps; � if necessary, wait until the water has cooled; � place a bowl on the floor; � put the drain hose end into the bowl and let the water out. Should it not be possible to have access to the drain hose because, for example the appliance is built in the kitchen furniture, slightly loosen the drain filter after placing a bowl on the floor to let the water come out slowly. At the end screw the filter again.
Frost precautions
If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as follows: � Close the water taps and unscrew the water inlet hoses from the taps. � Place the end of the drain hose and the inlet hoses in a bowl placed on the floor. � Select the �PUMP OUT� programme and run it until the machine stops. � Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off. � Remove the plug from the power socket. � Screw the water inlet hoses back on and put the drain hose back in its place. By doing this, any water remaining in the machine is removed, avoiding the formation of ice and, consequently, damage to the appliance. When you use the machine again, make sure that the ambient temperature is above 0°C.
