MVS-8000SF
2. Fan
MVS-8000SF is air-cooled by the fans (on both sides).
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 machine. This may have an
adverse effect on performance and the life of the machine.
Cleaning of the fan every month is recommended.
Contact your local Sony Sales Office/Service Center for
information on cleaning the fan.
2-3. About the Data Backup Capacitor
A large capacitor is installed on the CA-44 board in order
to backup the memory storing the setup and other data in
the MVS-8000SF.
Leave the main power of the MVS-8000SF turned on for
one hour or longer in order to charge the large capacitor.
The data can be backed up for about one week when the
capacitor is fully charged under the normal operating
temperature.
