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
The cabinet
Clean the outside surfaces of the appliance using a mild (non-abrasive) household cleaning product. Finish by removing remaining traces of the product with a damp cloth. Do not use cleaning products which contain alcohol (spirits), thinners and similar substances.
1
The detergent dispenser
In time, residues of detergent and fabric conditioner are likely to build up inside the detergent dispenser. It should be cleaned at regular intervals by flushing it out with water. If necessary, the whole dispenser can be taken out of the machine for cleaning. You need to pull it firmly outwards, so that it comes free of a retaining stop (Fig. 1). To remove the syphon at the inside edge of the dispenser for cleaning, you need to press it inwards and pull it upwards at the same time (Fig. 2). When you put it back, press it downwards until you hear a distinct click.
2
Opening for the detergent dispenser
Detergent residues can also build up inside the opening for the detergent dispenser. You can use an old toothbrush for cleaning this area (Fig. 3). When you have finished and put back the dispenser, run a short programme with no wash load in the machine to rinse it clean.
Cleaning inside the machine
If you mostly use your machine for low-temperature washes and/or if you use only very little detergent, you should clean the inside of the machine about once a month. This will prevent mould or stale odours from developing. Use the full recommended quantity of detergent and run a wash programme at the highest temperature with no wash load in the machine.

Protecting against freezing
If the washing machine is placed in an environment where the temperature sometimes falls below 0° C, there is a risk that the small amount of water which remains inside the parts of the machine will freeze and damage it. To prevent this you should: 1. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet hose from the supply tap. 2. Select a wash programme, start the machine and let the programme run for a short time. 3. Interrupt the programme by turning the programme selector to the �Reset� position. 4. Place the end of the inlet and discharge hoses down low, into the waste gully (floor drain) set into the floor. Make sure that the end of the hose does not go below the water level in the gully's (drain's) water trap. 5. Select the programme �Drain� and let that run until it is finished. 6. Turn the programme selector to the �Reset� position. The appliance is only to be used and stored indoors at normal room temperature. The manufacture is not responsible for any frost damage.
