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!

Care and Maintenance
TURN THE AIR CONDITIONER OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE POWER OUTLET.
Air Filter Cleaning
The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned at least once every 2 weeks or more often if necessary.
TO REMOVE:
1. Open the inlet grille upward by pulling out the bottom of the inlet grille or downward by pulling out the top of the inlet grille. 2. Using the tab, pull up slightly on the filter to release it and pull it down or up. 3. Clean the filter with warm, soapy water under 40°C (104°F). 4. Rinse and gently shake the water from the filter and let it dry before replacing it.
About the Controls on the Air Conditioner
CAUTION: DO NOT operate the air conditioner without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance.
