Notes
• Do not operate the system from the time the
power turns on until the recording starts (about 40
seconds).
• If “OFF TIME NG !” appears, the timer-on and -off
settings are the same. Change the time to turn off.
• When you use a brand new MD to record, the first
15 seconds will not be recorded (for DHC-MD77/
EX77MD/EX770MD).
• If the power is on at the preset time, the recording
will not be made.
• The volume is reduced to minimum during
recording.
Precautions
On operating voltage
Before operating the system, check that the
operating voltage of your system is identical with
the voltage of your local power supply.
On safety
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the
wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned
off.
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if
it is not to be used for an extended period of time.
To disconnect the cord (mains lead), pull it out by
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
component, unplug the stereo system and have
the component checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
• The AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On placement
• Place the stereo system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the stereo
system.
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;
– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Vibrating
– Subject to direct sunlight.
On operation
• If the stereo system is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp
room, moisture may condense on the lens inside
the CD player or the MD deck. Should this occur,
the system will not operate properly. Remove the
CD or MD and leave the system turned on for
about an hour until the moisture evaporates.
• When you move the system, take out the disc.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your stereo system, please consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
