Note

When you connect via the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL) connector, noise may occur when you play CD software other than music, such as a CD-ROM.

If you have a Sony component with the CONTROL A1 jack

Connect the component via the CONTROL A1 jack. You can simplify the operation of audio systems composed of separate Sony components. For details, refer to the supplementary “S-LinkTM/CONTROL-A1 Control System” instructions.

When using another Sony CD player together with this player

You can make the supplied remote effective only for this player.

•When using the player equipped with the COMMAND MODE selector:

Set the COMMAND MODE selector of this player to CD 1 and that of another player to CD 2 or CD 3. Then set the CD 1/2/3 switch on the remote supplied for each player accordingly.

•When using the player not equipped with the COMMAND MODE selector:

The command mode of the player without the COMMAND MODE selector is set to CD 1. Set the COMMAND MODE selector of this player to CD 2, and set the CD 1/2/3 switch on the remote to CD 2.

Setting the voltage selector (voltage selector equipped models only)

Check that the voltage selector on the rear panel of the player is set to the local power line voltage. If not, set the selector to the correct position using a screwdriver before connecting the AC power cord to a wall outlet.
