•Do not disassemble the cabinet — this may result in an electrical shock. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the tape deck and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources•Before operating the tape deck, check that the operating voltage of the tape deck is identical with your local power supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the tape deck.
•The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off (not applicable to European models).
•If you are not going to use the tape deck for a long time, be sure to disconnect the tape deck from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord, grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord.
•AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
On operation•Because of a safety mechanism, the function buttons will not operate if the cassette holder is not completely closed, if there is no cassette in the cassette holder, or if a cassette has been incorrectly inserted into the cassette holder.
•Be sure to stop the tape before turning off the tape deck. Otherwise, the tape may be damaged.
On placement•Place the tape deck in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat
•Do not place the tape deck:
—on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilation holes on the bottom.
—in a location near heat sources.
—in a place subject to direct sunlight.
—in an inclined position.
—in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical shock.
On cleaning the tape deckClean 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 tape deck, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

We do not recommend the use of tapes longer than 90 minutes except for a long continuous recording or playback. They are very thin and tend to stretch easily.
On handling cassettes•To prevent the heads and tape path from getting dirty, avoid touching the tape surface of a cassette.
•Place cassettes away from equipment with magnets, such as speakers and amplifiers, which may cause tape distortion or erase the recordings.
•Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight, extremely cold temperature, or moisture.
