• Make sure the time on the clock is correct.

• Check and change the preset start/stop time if

The remote does not function.

Remote

Replace all the batteries in the remote with new ones if they are weak (page 64).

Make sure that you are pointing the remote at the remote sensor on the player.

Remove any obstacles in the path of the remote and the player.

Make sure the remote sensor is not exposed to strong light such as direct sunlight or fluorescent lamp light.

Move closer to the player when using the remote.

Operation may become unstable depending on the power supply or other causes because this player employs a microcomputer to link each operation. If other troubles not described above occur, disconnect the mains lead from the wall outlet, then connect it again after about 20 seconds. If the problem still occurs, press the RESET button at the bottom of the player with a pointed object (in this case, clock set, timer or preset radio stations are reset to the initial settings. Set these items again if you need). If the problem persists, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
