Precautions
This label is located on the bottom of the
chassis.
This label is located on the drive unit’s internal
chassis.
• If your car was parked in direct sunlight
resulting in a considerable rise in
temperature inside the car, allow the unit to
cool off before operating it.
• If no power is being supplied to the unit,
check the connections first. If everything is in
order, check the fuse.
•If your car is equipped with a power aerial, it
will extend automatically while the unit is
operating.
•Do not edit the MD while driving.
•Make sure that the vehicle’s battery and
charging system are functioning properly
prior to using Timer-off recording and the
REC Continue mode function. Under certain
unusual conditions, use of the Timer-off
recording and the REC Continue mode
function could cause the vehicle’s battery to
be discharged to a degree that would prevent
the vehicle from starting. For the maximum
current drain per connection, refer to the
“connection diagram” of the supplied
installation/connections.
•Be careful if your car is equipped with an
electric current detector-type car-alarm
system: when Timer-off recording or REC
Continue mode ends, the alarm may
mistakenly go off, detecting a change in the
car’s electrical current.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit that are not covered in
this manual, please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
Notes on recording
If you are going to make a recording that
cannot be done over, it is recommended to
make a test recording before the actual
recording.
IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER BE LIABLE
FOR ANY DIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE OF ANY
NATURE, OR LOSSES OR EXPENSES
RESULTING FROM ANY DEFECTIVE
PRODUCT OR THE USE OF ANY
PRODUCT.
Moisture condensation
On a rainy day or in a very damp area,
moisture may condense on the lenses inside
the unit. Should this occur, the unit will not
operate properly. In such a case, remove the
disc and wait for about an hour until the
moisture has evaporated.
To maintain high sound quality
If you have drink holders near your audio
equipment, be careful not to splash juice or
other soft drinks onto the unit and MD. Sugary
residues on the unit or MD may contaminate
the lenses inside the unit, reduce the sound
quality, or prevent sound reproduction
altogether.
