dance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause
Interference to radio and television reception. It has been
type tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
computing device In accordance with the specifications in
Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference in a
residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turing the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient the receiving antenna
Relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver

Precautions
On safety
• Operate the unit only on 120V AC or 15V DC.
For AC operation, use the AC power cord supplied: do not
use any other type.
For battery operation, use ten size D (R20) batteries.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet when it is not to be used
for an extended period of time.
• When the internal batteries are not to be used, remove
them to avoid damage caused by battery leakage and
corrosion.
• As the laser beam used in the CD player section is harmful
to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, unplug
the unit, and have it checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
On installation
• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, or mechan
ical shock.
• If the unit is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to
choose a location in the car where the unit will not be
subject to the direct rays of the sun,
• Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the
cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for
the proper operation of the unit and to prolong the life of its
components.
• Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep per
sonal credit cards using magnetic coding or springwound
watches away from the unit to prevent possible damage
from the magnet.
• A synchronized CD starting system for recording.
• An automatic editing function—The CD player automati
cally edits the selections on a CD depending on the tape
length.
Digital clock timer
• You can listen to CD or radio at a preset time.
Others
High or normal speed tape dubbing
On operation
• If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location,
or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense
on the lenses inside the CD player section. Should this
occur, the player will not operate properly. In this case,
remove the disc and wait about an hour for the moisture to
evaporate.
• If the unit has not been used for a long time, set it in the
playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before
inserting a cassette.
• The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recom
mended except for long continuous recording or playback.
Whether you are going to operate the unit on AC power or on
batteries, make sure to insert three size AA (R6) batteries for the
clock/timer/memory functions.
• If a cassette cannot be removed
If the power was accidentally cut off (for example, the AC
power cord was disconnected, the batteries fell out or an in
terruption of the main power source occurred) after REC
or HI-SPEED DUB was pressed, it may not be possible to
eject the cassette. In this case, supply power to the unit again
and then press ■ ± to remove the cassette.
• If the cassette holder cannot be closed firmly
Press ■ ^ to remove the cassette and rei nsert it i nto the
holder. Do not attempt to play back or record when the cas
sette holder is not firmly closed. Otherwise, the cassette may
be damaged.
If you have any question or problem concerning your unit, please
consult the nearest Sony dealer.

Maintenance
Cleaning the heads and tape path
Contaminated heads cause insufficient recording or sound
drop-out in playback.
We recommend cleaning after every 10 hours of operation.
To make the best possible recordings, however, you should
clean all surfaces over which tape travels before making
each recording.
Wipe the heads, the pinch rollers and the capstans with a
cleaning tip slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol.
After cleaning the heads, rollers and tape path, insert a
cassette when the areas cleaned are completely dry.
Demagnetizing heads
After 20 to 30 hours of use, enough residual magnetism will
have built up on the heads to begin to cause loss of high
frequencies and hiss. At this time you should demagnetize
the heads and all metal parts in the tape path with a
commercially available head demagnetizer.
Cleaning the lens
If you have accidentally touched the lens of the CD player
section with dirty fingers or the dust has accumulated on the
lens, the unit will not operate properly. In such cases, clean
the lens with lens cleaning kit (not supplied).
Cleaning the cabinet
Celan 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 al
cohol or benzine.
