Precautions
Thank you for purchasing this Sony Cassette
Player. This unit lets you enjoy a variety of
features using the following controller
accessory:
Optional accessory
Rotary commander RM-X4S
In addition to the cassette playback and radio
operations, you can expand your system by
connecting an optional CD/MD unit*1.
When you operate this unit or a connected
optional CD unit with the CD TEXT function,
the CD TEXT information will appear in the
display when you play a CD TEXT disc*2.
*1You can connect a CD changer, an MD changer,
a CD player, or an MD player.
2
A CD TEXT disc is an audio CD that includes
*
information such as the disc name, artist name,
and track names.
This information is recorded on the disc.
• If your car was parked in direct sunlight
resulting in a considerable rise in
temperature inside the car, allow the unit to
cool off before operating it.
• If no power is being supplied to the unit,
check the connections first. If everything is in
order, check the fuse.
• If no sound comes from the speakers of a
two-speaker system, set the fader control to
the centre position.
• When a tape is played back for a long period,
the cassette may become warm because of
the built-in power amplifier. However, this is
not a sign of malfunction.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit that are not covered in
this manual, please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
To maintain high quality sound
If you have drink holders near your audio
equipment, be careful not to splash juice or
other soft drinks onto the car audio. Sugary
residues on this unit or cassette tapes may
contaminate the playback heads, reduce the
sound quality, or prevent sound reproduction
altogether.
Cassette cleaning kits cannot remove sugar
from the tape heads.

Notes on Cassettes
Cassette care
• Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as
any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.
• Keep cassettes away from equipment with
built-in magnets such as speakers and
amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the
recorded tape could occur.
• Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,
extremely cold temperatures, or moisture.
• Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be
caught in the machine. Before you insert the
tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the
reel and take up any slack.
Slack
• Distorted cassettes and loose labels can cause
problems when inserting or ejecting tapes.
Remove or replace loose labels.
Cassettes longer than 90 minutes
The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is
not recommended except for long continuous
play. The tape used for these cassettes is very
thin and tends to stretch easily. Frequent
playing and stopping of these tapes may cause
them to become entangled in the cassette deck
mechanism.
• The sound may become distorted while
playing the cassette. The cassette player head
should be cleaned after each 50 hours of use.

traffic announcements even if you are listening
to other programme sources.
Press (TA) repeatedly until “TA-ON”
appears.
The unit starts searching for traffic
information stations. “TP” appears in the
display when the unit finds a station
broadcasting traffic announcements.

traffic announcement is over.
Tip
If the traffic announcement starts while you are
listening to another programme source, the unit
automatically switches to the announcement and
goes back to the original source when the
announcement is over.
Notes
“NO TP” flashes for five seconds if the received
•
station does not broadcast traffic announcements.
Then, the unit starts searching for a station that
broadcasts it.
• When “EON” appears with “TP” in the display,

announcements by other stations in the same
network.
12
To cancel the current traffic
announcement
Press (TA).
To cancel all traffic announcements, turn off
the function by pressing (TA) until
“TA-OFF” appears.

announcement starts, the volume will be
automatically adjusted to the preset level.
1 Press the volume button to adjust the
desired volume level.
2 Press (TA) for two seconds.
“TA” appears and the setting is stored.
Receiving emergency
announcements
If an emergency announcement comes in while
you are listening to the radio, the programme
will automatically switch to it. If you are
listening to a source other than the radio, the
emergency announcements will be heard if
you set AF or TA to on. The unit will then
automatically switch to these announcements
no matter which source you are listening to at
the time.
Presetting the RDS
stations with the AF and
TA data
When you preset RDS stations, the unit stores
each station’s data as well as its frequency, so
you don’t have to turn on the AF or TA
function every time you tune in the preset
station. You can select a different setting (AF,
TA, or both) for individual preset stations, or
the same setting for all preset stations.
Presetting the same setting for all
preset stations
1 Select an FM band (page 9).
2 Press (AF) and/or (TA) to select “AF-ON”
and/or “TA-ON.”
Note that selecting “AF-OFF” or “TA-OFF”
stores not only RDS stations, but also nonRDS stations.
3 Press (SENS) (BTM) until “BTM” flashes.
Presetting different settings for
each preset station
1 Select an FM band, and tune in the
desired station.
2 Press (AF) and/or (TA) to select “AF-ON”
and/or “TA-ON.”
3 Press the desired number button until
“MEM” appears.
Repeat from step 1 to preset other stations.

Bezpečnostní opatření
•Bylo-li vaše auto zaparkováno na přímém
slunci a došlo-li k velkému zvýšení teploty
uvnitř auta, nechte přístroj vychladnout, než
ho uvedete do provozu.
•Není-li přístroj pod proudem, zkontrolujte
napřed jeho zapojení. Je-li vše v pořádku,
zkontrolujte pojistku.
•Jestliže se z reproduktorů neozývá žádný
zvuk, když jsou zapojené 2 reproduktory,
nastavte vyvážení reproduktorů do středové
polohy.
•Jestliže delší dobu posloucháte kazetu,
může se stát, že se zahřeje od
zabudovaného zesilovače. Není to však
znakem poruchy.
Vyskytnou-li se další otázky nebo problémy
týkající se vašeho přístroje, které nejsou
popsány v tomto návodu k použití, obrate se
na nejbližší zastoupení firmy Sony.
Udržení vysoké kvality zvuku
Jestliže jsou v blízkosti vašeho rádia umístěné
držáky na nápoje, dbejte na to, aby se do
vašeho autorádia nedostaly ovocné šávy, ani
jiné nápoje. Zbytky cukru na tomto přístroji
nebo na kazetách by mohly zašpinit hlavy pro
přehrávání, snížit kvalitu zvuku nebo
všeobecně zhoršit reprodukci zvuku.
Soupravy na čistění kazet nemohou odstranit
cukr z hlav na přehrávání.
2
Poznámky ke kazetám
Péče o kazety
•Nedotýkejte se povrchu pásku v kazetě,
protože by případné nečistoty nebo vlhkost
zašpinily hlavy.
•Nepřibližujte kazety do blízkosti zařízení se
silnými zabudovanými magnety, jako jsou
reproduktory a zesilovače, protože by mohlo
dojít k vymazání nebo poškození nahrávky
na nahraném pásku.
•Nevystavujte kazety přímému slunečnímu
záření, extrémně nízkým teplotám, ani
vlhkosti.
•Případné smyčky na pásku by mohly
způsobit zamotání pásku v přístroji. Než
vložíte kazetu, napněte pásek za pomoci
tužky nebo podobného předmětu - otáčením
jednoho z koleček.
Smyčka
•Zdeformované kazety nebo částečně
odlepené nálepky mohou způsobovat
problémy při zasouvání a vysouvání kazet.
Odstraňte, příp. nahrate uvolněné nálepky.
Kazety delší než 90 minut
Nedoporučujeme přehrávání kazet delších než
90 minut s výjimkou dlouhého souvislého
přehrávání. Pásky užívané pro tyto kazety jsou
velmi slabé, proto může snadno dojít k jejich
natažení. Jejich časté přehrávání a
zastavování může vést k tomu, že se navinou
na hlavy mechaniky.
•Může se stát, že bude zvuk při přehrávání
kazety rušený. Hlavy magnetofonu by měly
být čistěny po každých 50 hodinách
provozu.
