Troubleshooting Precautions

General

The power does not come on.

• Connect the AC power adaptor securely.

• Make sure the batteries are inserted correctly.

• Replace all the batteries with new ones if they are weak.

There is no audio.

• Unplug the headphones when listening through speakers.

Noise is heard.

• Someone is using a portable telephone or other equipment that emits radio waves near the player. tMove the portable telephone, etc., away from the player.

CD Player

The CD does not play or “– –” lights in the display even when a CD is in place.

• Place the CD with the label surface facing you.

• Clean the CD.

• Take out the CD and leave the CD compartment open for about an hour to dry moisture condensation.

• The CD-R/CD-RW was not finalized. Finalize the CD-R/CDRW with the recording device.

• There is a problem with the quality of the CD-R/CD-RW, recording device or application software.

The sound drops out.

• Reduce the volume.

• Clean the CD, or replace it if the CD is badly damaged.

• Place the player in a location free from vibration.

• Clean the lens with a commercially available blower.

• The sound may drop out or noise may be heard when using poor quality CD-Rs/CD-RWs or if there is a problem with the recording device or application software.

Lens

Radio

The audio is weak or has poor quality.

• Replace all the batteries with new ones if they are weak.

• Move the player away from the TV.

The picture of your TV becomes unstable.

• If you are listening to an FM program near the TV with an indoor antenna, move the player away from the TV.

After trying the above remedies, if you still have problems, unplug the AC power adaptor and remove all the batteries. After all the indications in the display disappear, plug the AC power adaptor and insert the batteries again. If the problem persists, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

On safety

• 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 player, unplug the player, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star) cannot be played on this player. Attempting to do so may damage the player. Do not use such discs.

Cleaning the cabinet

• Clean 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.

On power sources

• For AC operation, use the supplied AC power adaptor; do not use any other type.

• The player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player itself has been turned off.

• Unplug the player from the wall outlet when it is not to be used for an extended period of time.

• For battery operation, use four size AA (R6) batteries.

• When the batteries are not to be used, remove them to avoid damage that can be caused by battery leakage or corrosion.

• The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc. is located at the bottom.

Polarity of the plug

On placement

• Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.

• Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable place.

• Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for the player to operate properly and prolong the life of its components.

• If the player is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the player will not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.

• Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring-wound watches away from the player to prevent possible damage from the magnet.

On operation

• If the player 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 CD and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Notes on CDs

• Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight as there can be a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.

• Do not stick paper or sticker on the CD, nor scratch the surface of the CD.

• After playing, store the CD in its case.

If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it may cause tracking error.
