Lithium battery life

Replace the lithium battery once about a year. When the battery becomes weak, the date and time display may flash or the clock may lose time. Note that the built-in clock normally loses about 2 minutes a month. Replace the battery only with one of the same type and rating.

After replacing the lithium battery

If necessary, reset the clock (page 10). If you use the recorder without resetting the clock, the correct date and time will not be recorded with the recording.

Notes on lithium battery

• Keep the lithium battery and the

recorder 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, as a short-circuit may occur.

WARNING

Battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble or dispose of in fire.

Precautions

On the AC power adaptor

• Use only the AC-NT2 AC power adaptor (supplied). Do not use any other AC power adaptor.

Polarity of the plug

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

• If you are not going to use this recorder for a long time, be sure to disconnect the power supply (AC power adaptor, dry battery). To remove the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet, grasp the adaptor plug itself: never pull the cord.

On installation

Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.

On handling

Do not drop or hit the unit. Doing so may cause a malfunction in the unit.

On battery

Incorrect battery usage may lead to leakage of battery fluid or bursting batteries. To prevent such accidents, observe the following precautions:

• Install the + and – poles of the battery correctly.

• Do not try to recharge the battery.

• When the unit will not be used for a long time, be sure to remove the battery.

• If a battery leak should develop, carefully and thoroughly wipe away battery fluid from the battery compartment before inserting a new one.

• Batteries and metal should not be put together. If the + and – poles of the battery touch metal, a short circuit may result.

24-EN

On tape

• Keep an NT cassette tape out of the reach of children. Should the tape be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.

• On cassettes longer than 90 minutes The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is not recommended except for long continuous playback.

On the headphones

Road safety

Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your recorder at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or discontinue use. Use the AVLS function to avoid excessive pressure to your ears.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate of the people around you.

On moisture condensation

If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside the unit. In this condition, the tape may adhere to the head drum and be damaged, or the unit may not operate correctly. Always remove the cassette tape when the unit is not being used.

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

For your information

To prevent accidental erasure

After recording, push the red tab on the side of the tape you want to protect using a pointed object. If you try to record with the tab pushed down, “PROTECT” appears in the display and the recorder does not enter the recording mode. To record over the previous recording, push the white tab on the opposite side of the cassette with a pointed object (page 31).

25-EN

Maintenance

Cleaning the tape head

Prolonged operation will cause contamination of the tape head. To result in the best possible recording and playback, we recommend cleaning the tape head periodically (after a 10-hour run), using the Sony NTC-10CL cleaning cassette (supplied). If the recorder was not used for a long time, clean the tape head before operation.

How to use the cleaning cassette

1 Insert the cleaning cassette as you do with an NT cassette tape. 2 Set DIR MODE to A. 3 Press œ. About 15 seconds later, press p. 4 Remove the cleaning cassette without rewinding it.

Proceed with recording and playback with a regular NT cassette tape to check the sound quality.

Notes on the cleaning cassette

• The cleaning cassette cannot be used for recording and playback.

• Do not clean the tape head with the cleaning cassette more than five times

continuously. Cleaning the tape head continuously for too long a period of time may cause wear to the tape head.

• Do not rewind the cleaning cassette each time you use it. When the cleaning cassette tape is taken up completely, turn it over and use the other side.

Cleaning the cabinet

Clean the cabinet, panels, 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 the tape shield of an NT cassette tape

The NT cassette tape has a tape shield to prevent dust from entering the tape. The tape shield opens and closes automatically when inserted and removed. Do not force the tape shield open or touch the tape inside.
