STEP 3 Connecting the

Power

Connect the mains lead to a wall outlet after you have made all the above connections.

STEP 1

Note

Do not install the woofer close to the unit, and do not place the woofer above or below the unit. Otherwise, the vibration from the woofer may cause mechanical noise or “skipping”.

When installing the speakers on either side of the main unit

Place the superwoofer between the two satellite speakers.

2 Install the superwoofer between the

satellite speakers with its front panel facing upward.

to a wall outlet

Installing the Speakers

Proper speaker positioning is essential in order to achieve directional effects and diffused ambience. When you install the speakers, refer to the following instructions. Once you have determined the final placement, fasten the speakers to the speaker stands.

When installing the satellite speakers away the superwoofer 1 Insert the supplied stand into the rear of

the superwoofer.

When installing the satellite speakers away from each other

Position the satellite speakers so they face toward your listening position.

1 Open the lid.

2 Insert two R6 (size AA) batteries.

Match the + and – indications to the diagram in the battery compartment.

3 Close the lid.

Battery life

You can expect the remote to operate for about six months (using Sony SUM-3 (NS) batteries) before the batteries run down. When the batteries no longer operate the remote, replace both batteries with new ones.

Precautions

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

On safety

•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.

•Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord (mains lead), pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

•Should any solid object or liquid fall into the component, unplug the stereo system and have the component checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

•The mains lead must be changed only at the qualified service shop.

On installation

Place the stereo system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat buildup in the stereo system.

On condensation in the CD player component

If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD player. Should this occur, the CD player will not operate. Remove the CD and leave the system turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates.

To save a tape permanently

To prevent a tape from being accidentally recorded over, break off the cassette tab from side A or B as illustrated. If you later want to reuse the tape for recording, cover the broken tab with adhesive tape.

Side A

Troubleshooting Guide

If you run into any problem using the stereo, use the following check list and first check the following points:

• The mains lead is connected firmly.

• The speakers are connected correctly and firmly.

Should any problem persist after you have made the checks below, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

➔There is an obstacle between the

remote and the system. Remove the obstacle.

Restoring the Factory Settings

Unplug the mains lead and then plug it back into the wall outlet. Keep DISPLAY and FUNCTION pressed and press TAPE.

Maintenance

To clean the tape heads and tape path

Contaminated tape heads cause poor recording or sound drop-out in playback. We recommend cleaning after every 10 hours of operation.

Open the tape compartment and wipe the heads, the pinch rollers and the capstans with a cleaning swab slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol. Wipe the parts shown below.

Deck A

Cleaning swab

Capstan

Pinch roller

Playback head

Deck B

Cleaning swab

Insert a tape when the areas cleaned are completely dry.

Erase head

Capstan

Pinch roller

Record/playback head

To demagnetize the tape 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, demagnetize the heads and all metal parts in the tape path with a commercially available tape head demagnetizer. Refer to the instructions of the demagnetizer.

To clean the cabinet

Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution.

To clean the CD

When a CD is dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the centre out.

Notes on CD

•Do not use solvents such as benzene,

thinner, commercially available cleaners, or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

•If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on

the CD, it may cause a tracking error.
