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!

Replacing
1. Make sure all coil elements are off and cool before replacing the coil elements and reflector bowls.
2. Line up openings in the reflector bowl with the coil element receptacle and the element hold-down clip.
3. Hold the coil element as level as possible with the terminal just started into the receptacle. Push the coil element terminal into the receptacle.
4. When terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will go, push down the edge of the coil element opposite the receptacle. The element hold-down clip will keep the coil element from moving around. NOTE: Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the cookware on the coil elements. They also help catch spills. When they are kept clean, they reflect heat better and look new longer. If a reflector bowl gets discolored, some of your cookware may not be flat enough, or some may be too large for the coil element. In either case, some of the heat that�s meant to go into or around the cookware goes down and heats the reflector bowl. This extra heat can discolor it. 47
