Information

Precautions

∙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 switching on.

∙If no power is being supplied to the unit, check the connections first. If everything is in order, check the fuse.

∙If no sound comes from the speakers of a

2-speaker system, set the fader control to the center position.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit that are not covered in this manual, please consult your nearest Sony

EN dealer.

Notes on Cassettes

Cassette care

∙Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.

∙Keep cassettes away from equipment with built-in magnets such as speakers and amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the recorded tape could occur.

∙Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, extremely cold temperatures or moisture.

∙When the tape is played back for a long period, the cassette shell may become warm because of the built-in power amplifier. However, this is not a sign of a malfunction.

Cassettes longer than 90 minutes

The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recommended except for long continuous play. The tapes used for these cassettes are very thin and tend to be stretched easily. Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes may cause them to be pulled into the cassette deck mechanism.

Maintenance

Fuse Replacement

When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one matching the amperage rating stated on the fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again after replacement, there may be an internal malfunction. In such a case, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Fuse (15 A)

Warning

Never use a fuse with an amperage rating exceeding the one supplied with the unit as this could damage the unit.

Cleaning the Connectors

The unit may not function properly if the connectors between the unit and the front panel are not clean. In order to prevent this, open the front panel by pressing (RELEASE), then detach it and clean with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol. Do not apply too much force. Otherwise, the connector may get damaged.
