Choosing Power Sources
To use the player on AC power source (mains)
Connect the supplied mains lead to the AC IN jack.
To prevent fire or shock hazard,
do not expose the player to rain
or moisture.
To avoid electrical shock, do not
open the cabinet. Refer servicing
to qualified personnel only.
Do not install the appliance in a
confined space, such as a
bookcase or built-in cabinet.
To prevent fire or shock hazard,
do not place objects filled with
liquids, such as vases, on the

Precautions
On safety/power sources
• Should any solid object or liquid
fall into the player, unplug the
player and have it checked by
qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
• For AC operation, check that the
player’s operating voltage is
identical with your local power
supply (see “Specifications”) and
use the supplied mains lead; do
not use any other type. The voltage
selector is located at the rear of the
player. (CFS-B7SMK2 only)
• The player is not disconnected
from the AC power source (mains)
as long as it is connected to the
mains, even if the player itself has
been turned off.
• For battery operation, use six R20
(size D) batteries.
• When the batteries are not to be
used, remove them to avoid
damage that can be caused by
battery leakage or corrosion.
• The nameplate indicating
operating voltage, power
consumption, etc., is located on the
bottom.
Troubleshooting
There is no audio.
• Connect the mains lead
securely.
• Insert the batteries properly.
• Replace all the batteries if they
are weak.
• Unplug the headphones.
• Adjust the volume.
• Set FUNCTION to the position
you want to operate.
Cassette cannot be
inserted.
• Insert the cassette properly.
• Press
p6
STOP/EJECT to
release.
The
r
REC button does
not function.
• No cassette in the tape
compartment.
• Make sure the safety tab on the
cassette is in place.
Poor playback,
recording or erasing
quality.
• Dirty heads. Clean the unit (as
shown) with a cotton swab
slightly moistened with
cleaning fluid or alcohol.
• Demagnetize the heads and all
metal parts in the tape path
with a commercially available
head demagnetizer.
Tip
For customers supplied with an AC plug adaptor, use it if the plug
of the mains lead does not match your mains.
Notes
• To use the player on batteries, disconnect the mains lead from
the player.
• Replace the batteries when the OPR/BATT indicator dims or
when the player stops operating. Replace all the batteries with
new ones.
To use the player on batteries

On placement/operation
• Do not leave the player in a
location near heat sources, or in
a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical
shock.
• Do not place anything within 10
mm of the side of the cabinet. The
ventilation holes must be
unobstructed for the player to
operate properly and to prolong
the life of its components.
• Since a strong magnet is used for
the speakers, keep personal credit
cards using magnetic coding or
spring-wound watches away from
the player to prevent possible
damage from the magnet.
• If the player has not been used for
a long time, set it in the playback
mode to warm it up for a few
minutes before inserting a
cassette.
If you have any questions or
problems concerning your player,
please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
