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 system is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the system 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
system, unplug the system and have the system
checked by qualified personnel before operating it
any further.
• The AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On placement
• 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
• Use caution when placing the system or speakers on
surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax,
oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the
surface may result.
On heat build-up
• Although the system heats up during operation, this
is not a malfunction.
• Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
If you use this system at a large volume, the cabinet
temperature of the top, side and bottom rises
considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch
the cabinet.
To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation
hole for the cooling fan.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
On operation
• If the 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
system. Should this occur, the system will not
operate properly. Remove the disc and leave the
system turned on for about an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
• When you move the system, take out any discs.
Notes on discs
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the disc from the center out.
• Do not use solvents.
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat
sources.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square,
star) cannot be played on this system. Attempting to
do so may damage the system. Do not use such
discs.
Cleaning the cabinet
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild
detergent solution.
To save a tape permanently
To prevent a tape from being accidentally recorded
over, break off the tape tab. Refer to the instructions
of the tape.
Before placing a tape in the tape
deck
Take up any slack in the tape. Otherwise the tape may
get entangled in the parts of the tape deck and become
damaged.
When using a tape longer than 90
minutes
The tape is very elastic. Do not change the tape
operations such as play, stop and fast-winding etc.
frequently. The tape may get entangled in the tape
deck.
