If you just tell us you "have no idea what [the instructions] mean," you need someone to walk you through them, which we at HelpOwl can't do by email, the only means we have. Your best option is to consult Sony. Use the contact information at https://www.contacthelp.com/sony/customer-service.
Hope this is useful. Please don't forget to click the Accept This Answer button if you do accept it. My aim is to provide reliable helpful answers, not just a lot of them. See https://www.helpowl.com/profile/Odin.
