Maintenance

3-2-1. Cleaning

1. Front panel
BCU-100 is performing the air intake from the front panel
for internal air-cooling.
Therefore, the front panel can easily accumulate dust. Be
sure to remove dust by cleaning.
If dust has accumulated in the front panel, air is prevented
from flowing smoothly and this may result in a tempera-
ture rise inside the unit. This may have an adverse effect
on performance and life of this unit.
Cleaning of the fan every month is recommended.
(1) While pushing simultaneously the release button of
right and left side, remove the front panel in the
direction of an arrow as shown below.

2. Fan
The power supply unit of BCU-100 is air-cooled by a fan
on the rear panel.
If dust has accumulated in the intake of the fan, air is
prevented from flowing smoothly and this may result in a
temperature rise inside the power supply. This may have
an adverse effect on performance and life of this unit.
Cleaning of the fan every month is recommended.
Contact your local Sony Sales Office/Service Center for
information on cleaning the fan.
