Precautions

Discs that this unit CAN play

• Audio CD
• CD-R/CD-RW (CD-DA*)
* CD-DA is the abbreviation for Compact Disc Digital Audio. It is a 

recording standard used for Audio CDs.

Discs that this unit CANNOT play

• CD-R/CD-RW other than those recorded in music CD format
• CD-R/CD-RW of poor recording quality, CD-R/CD-RW that 

has scratches or are dirty, or CD-R/CD-RW recorded with an 
incompatible recording device

• CD-R/CD-RW which is finalized incorrectly

Notes on discs

• Before playing, clean the CD with a 

cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the 
center out. If there is a scratch, dirt or 
fingerprints on the CD, it may cause 
tracking error. 

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially 

available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot 

air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can 
be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.

• Do not stick paper or sticker on the CD, nor scratch the surface of 

the CD.

• After playing, store the CD in its case.

On safety

• As the laser beam used in the CD player section is harmful to the 

eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to 
qualified personnel only.

• 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.

• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be 

played on this player. Attempting to do so may damage the player. 
Do not use such discs.

On power sources

• For AC operation, use the supplied AC power cord; do not use any 

other type. 

• The player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) 

as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself 
has been turned off.

• Unplug the player from the wall outlet when it is not to be used for 

an extended period of time.

• 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 at the bottom.

On placement

• Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, in a place 

subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock or in 
a car subject to the direct rays of the sun.

• Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable place.
• 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 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.

On operation

• If the player 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 section. Should this occur, the player will not 
operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and wait about an 
hour for the moisture to evaporate.

Cleaning the cabinet

• Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly 

moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of 
abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzine.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please 
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
