using it at once and contact the Sony service center.  
s
Do not place the receiver where the power cord and cables are  
subject to wear or abuse.  
s
Do not pinch, bend, or twist the cord excessively. The core lines may  
be bared and cut, and cause a short-circuit, resulting in a fire or an  
electric shock.
