Additional Information
Precautions
• If your car has been parked in direct sunlight,
allow the unit to cool off before operating it.
• Power antenna (aerial) will extend automatically
while the unit is operating.
Moisture condensation
On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture
condensation may occur inside the lenses and
display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit will
not operate properly. In such a case, remove the disc
and wait for about an hour until the moisture has
evaporated.
To maintain high sound quality
Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks
onto the unit or discs.
Notes on discs
• To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface.
Handle the disc by its edge.
• Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines
when not in use.
• Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature.
Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a
dashboard/rear tray.
• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/
residue. Such discs may stop spinning when used,
causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.
• Before playing, clean the discs
with a commercially available
cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc
from the center out. Do not use
solvents such as benzine,
thinner, commercially available
cleaners, or antistatic spray
intended for analog discs.
Notes on CD-R/CD-RW discs
• Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the
equipment used for its recording or the condition
of the disc) may not play on this unit.
• You cannot play a CD-R/a CD-RW that is not
finalized.
• The unit is compatible with the ISO 9660 level 1/
level 2 format, Joliet/Romeo in the expansion
format, and Multi Session.
• The maximum number of:
– folders (albums): 150 (including root and empty
folders).
– files (tracks) and folders contained in a disc: 300
(if a folder/file names contain many characters,
this number may become less than 300).
– displayable characters for a folder/file name is
32 (Joliet), or 64 (Romeo).
• When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only
the first track of the first session format is
recognized and played (any other format is
skipped). The priority of the format is CD-DA,
ATRAC CD and MP3/WMA/AAC.
– When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of
the first session is played.
– When the first track is not a CD-DA, an ATRAC
CD or MP3/WMA/AAC session is played. If the
disc has no data in any of these formats, “NO
MUSIC” is displayed.
• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers
attached.
The following malfunctions may result from using
such discs:
– Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker
peeling off and jamming the eject mechanism).
– Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g.,
playback skipping, or no playback) due to heat
shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to
warp.
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,
square, star) cannot be played on this unit.
Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not
use such discs.
• You cannot play 8 cm (3
1
/4 in) CDs.
Music discs encoded with copyright
protection technologies
This product is designed to play back discs that
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.
Recently, various music discs encoded with
copyright protection technologies are marketed by
some record companies. Please be aware that among
those discs, there are some that do not conform to
the CD standard and may not be playable by this
product.
Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which
mates DVD recorded material on one side with
digital audio material on the other side. However,
since the audio material side does not conform to
the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this
product is not guaranteed.

Maintenance
Notes on the lithium battery
• Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children.
Should the battery be swallowed, immediately
consult a doctor.
• Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good
contact.
• Be sure to observe the correct polarity when
installing the battery.
• Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers,
otherwise a short-circuit may occur.
WARNING
Battery may explode if mistreated.
Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of
in fire.
Fuse replacement
When replacing the fuse, be
sure to use one matching the
amperage rating stated on the
original fuse. If the fuse blows,
check the power connection and
replace the fuse. If the fuse
blows again after replacement,
there may be an internal
malfunction. In such a case,
consult your nearest Sony
dealer.

Cleaning the connectors
The unit may not function properly if the connectors
between the unit and the front panel are not clean. In
order to prevent this, detach the front panel (page 5)
and clean the connectors with a cotton swab. Do not
apply too much force. Otherwise, the connectors
may be damaged.
Replacing the lithium battery of the
card remote commander
Under normal conditions, the battery will last
approximately 1 year. (The service life may be
shorter, depending on the conditions of use.)
When the battery becomes weak, the range of the
card remote commander becomes shorter. Replace
the battery with a new CR2025 lithium battery. Use
of any other battery may present a risk of fire or
explosion.

RDS-Funktionen
Mit diesem Gerät stehen folgende
RDS-Funktionen automatisch zur Verfügung:
AF (Alternativfrequenzen)
In einem Netzwerk wird der Sender mit den
stärksten Signalen ausgewählt und neu
eingestellt. So können Sie auch bei einer langen
Fahrt über eine große Entfernung hinweg
ununterbrochen denselben Sender empfangen,
ohne ihn manuell neu einstellen zu müssen.
TA (Verkehrsdurchsagen)/
TP (Verkehrsfunksender)
Aktuelle Verkehrsinformationen bzw.
Verkehrsfunksender werden empfangen. Wenn
solche Informationen bzw. Sendungen
empfangen werden, wird die gerade
ausgewählte Tonquelle unterbrochen.
PTY (Programmtypauswahl)
Der gerade empfangene Programmtyp wird
angezeigt. Außerdem kann nach dem
ausgewählten Programmtyp gesucht werden.
CT (Uhrzeit)
Mit den CT-Daten (Uhrzeitdaten), die von
RDS-Sendern ausgestrahlt werden, lässt sich
die Uhr einstellen.
Hinweise
• Je nach Land bzw. Region stehen möglicherweise
nicht alle RDS-Funktionen zur Verfügung.
• Die RDS-Funktion arbeitet möglicherweise nicht,
wenn die Sendesignale zu schwach sind oder wenn
der eingestellte Sender keine RDS-Daten ausstrahlt.

Unveränderter Empfang eines
Regionalsenders — REG
Wenn die AF-Funktion aktiviert ist: Der
Empfang wird bei diesem Gerät werkseitig auf
die Regionalsender einer bestimmten Region
beschränkt, so dass nicht zu einem anderen
Regionalsender mit einer stärkeren Frequenz
gewechselt wird.
Wenn Sie den Empfangsbereich des betreffenden
Regionalsenders verlassen, stellen Sie während
des UKW-Empfangs „REG-OFF“ ein (
