Before playing, clean the discs with an
optional cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc from
the center out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or antistatic
spray intended for analog discs.

Notes on moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area,
moisture may condense on the lenses inside
the CD player. Should this occur, the unit will
not operate properly. In this case, remove the
disc  and wait for about an hour until the
moisture evaporates.

When you play 8 cm (3 in.) CDs

Use the optional Sony compact disc single
adapter (CSA-8) to protect the CD player from
being damaged.

Maintenance

Fuse replacement

When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one
that matches the amperage described on the
fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power
connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse
blows again after replacement, there may be
an internal malfunction. In such a case, consult
your nearest Sony dealer.

Warning

Never use a fuse with an amperage rating
exceeding the one supplied with the unit as
this could damage the unit.
