Precautions

On safety

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.

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

For battery operation, use four 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 at the bottom.

On placement

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 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.

If the player is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the player will not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.

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 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.

Notes on cassettes
