On cleaning

•After wiping the recorder casing with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water, wipe it again with a dry cloth. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzene as this may mar the finish on the casing.

•Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth to remove dirt.

•Dust on the lens may prevent the unit from operating properly. Be sure to close the disc compartment lid after inserting or ejecting an MD.

•To maintain good sound quality, use a soft cloth to clean the plugs of the headphones/ earphones. A dirty plug may cause noise or intermittent breaks in the sound during playback.

•Clean the terminals periodically with a cotton swab or a soft cloth as illustrated.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your recorder, please consult your nearest Sony dealer. (If a trouble occurred when the disc was in the recorder, we recommend that the disc be left in the recorder when you consult your Sony dealer so that the cause of trouble may be better understood.)

When consulting your Sony dealer, be sure to bring the recorder and the headphones/ earphones.
