Troubleshooting

Make sure the power cord and speaker cords are 

correctly and firmly connected.

Find your problem in the checklist below, and take 

the indicated corrective action.

If the issue persists, contact your nearest Sony dealer.

If the STANDBY indicator flashes

Immediately unplug the power cord, and check the 

following items.

Are the + and 

 speaker cords short-circuited?

Is anything blocking the ventilation holes of the 

system?

Is the iPod/iPhone connector 

 short-circuited?

After the STANDBY indicator 

 stops flashing, 

reconnect the power cord, and turn on the system. If 

the issue persists, contact your nearest Sony dealer.

Precautions

Discs that this system CAN play

Audio CD

CD-R/CD-RW (audio data/MP3 files)

Discs that this system CANNOT play

CD-ROM

CD-R/CD-RW other than those recorded in music CD 

format or MP3 format conforming to ISO9660 Level 

1/Level 2, Joliet

CD-R/CD-RW recorded in multisession that have not 

ended by “closing the session”

CD-R/CD-RW of poor recording quality, 

CD-R/CD-RW that have scratches or are dirty, 

or CD-R/CD-RW recorded with an incompatible 

recording device

CD-R/CD-RW which is finalized incorrectly

Discs containing files other than MPEG 1 Audio Layer-

3 (MP3) files

Discs of non-standard shape (for example, heart, 

square, star)

Discs that have adhesive tape, paper, or sticker attached 

to them

Rental or used discs with attached seals where the glue 

extends beyond the seal

Discs that have labels printed using ink that feels tacky 

when touched

Notes on discs

Before playing, wipe the disc with a cleaning cloth from 

the center out to the edge.

Do not clean discs with solvents, such as benzine, 

thinner, or commercially available cleaners or anti-

static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources 

such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in 

direct sunlight.

On safety

Completely disconnect the power cord (mains lead) 

from the wall outlet (mains) if it is not going to be used 

for an extended period of time. When unplugging the 

unit, always grip the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Should any solid object or liquid get into the system, 

unplug the system, and have it checked by qualified 

personnel before operating it again.

The AC power cord can be changed only by a qualified 

service facility.

On placement

Do not place the system in an inclined position or in 

locations that are extremely hot, cold, dusty, dirty, or 

humid or lacking adequate ventilation, or subject to 

vibration, direct sunlight or a bright light.

Be careful when placing the unit or speakers on 

surfaces that have been specially treated (for example, 

with wax, oil, polish) as staining or discoloration of the 

surface may result.

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 CD player, and 

cause the system to malfunction. In this situation, 

remove the disc, and leave the system turned on for 

about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

On heat buildup

Heat buildup on the unit during operation is normal 

and is not cause for alarm.

Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used 

continuously at a high volume because the cabinet may 

have become hot. 

Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

On the speaker system

This speaker system is not magnetically shielded, and 

the picture on nearby TV sets may become magnetically 

distorted. In this situation, turn off the TV, wait 15 to 

30 minutes, and turn it back on. 

If there is no improvement, move the speakers far away 

from the TV.

Cleaning the cabinet

Clean this system with a soft cloth slightly moistened 

with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of 

abrasive pads, scouring powder, or solvents, such as 

thinner, benzine, or alcohol.




To change the play mode

Press PLAY MODE 

 repeatedly. You can select Normal 

Play mode (playback in sequence of all files on the 

USB device), Folder Play mode (“ ” for all files in the 

specified folder on the USB device), or Shuffle Play mode 

(“SHUF”).

Notes on the play mode

When you select Shuffle Play mode “SHUF,” the system shuffle-plays 

all audio files in the connected USB device in random order. Shuffle 

Play mode may play the same file repeatedly.

When the play mode is set to Folder Play mode, “REP1” is not 

available.

When the play mode is set to Shuffle Play mode, the repeat function 

is not available.

When repeat play is set, Shuffle Play mode is not available. When 

repeat play is set to “REP1,” Folder Play mode is not available.

When you turn off the system, the selected Shuffle Play mode 

(“SHUF”) is cleared and the play mode returns to Normal Play 

mode.

Note on Repeat play

If you select “REP” when the system is in Normal Play mode, the 

system executes repeat play of all audio files in the USB device until 

you stop playback. If you select “REP” when the system is in Folder 

Play mode, the system executes repeat play of all audio files in the 

selected folder until you stop playback.

Notes

When USB cable connection is necessary, connect the USB cable 

supplied with the USB device to be connected. See the operation 

manual supplied with the USB device to be connected for details on 

the operation method.

It may take about 10 seconds before “Reading” appears depending 

on the type of USB device connected.

Do not connect the system and the USB device through a USB hub.

When the USB device is inserted, the system reads all the files on the 

USB device. If there are many folders or files on the USB device, it 

may take a long time to finish reading the USB device.

With some connected USB devices, after an operation is performed, 

there may be a delay before it is performed by this system.

Compatibility with all encoding/writing software cannot be 

guaranteed. If audio files on the USB device were originally encoded 

with incompatible software, those files may produce noise or 

interrupted sound, or may not be played back at all.

This system cannot play audio files on the USB device in the 

following cases;

 when the total number of audio files in a folder exceeds 100.

 when the total number of audio files on a USB device exceeds 

10000.

 when the total number of folders on a USB device exceeds 100 

(including the “ROOT” folder and empty folders).

  These numbers may vary depending on the file and folder structure. 

Do not save other types of files or unnecessary folders on a USB 

device that has audio files.

The system can play back to a depth of 8 folders only.

This system does not necessarily support all the functions provided 

in a connected USB device.

Folders that have no audio files are skipped.

The audio formats that you can listen to with this system are as 

follows:

 MP3: file extension “.mp3”

 WMA: file extension “.wma”

 AAC: file extension “.m4a”

  Note that even when file name has the correct file extension, if the 

actual file differs, the system may produce noise or may malfunction.
