Precautions
On safety
• Caution — The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
cabinet, unplug the recorder 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 unit. Attempting to
do so may damage the unit. Do not use such discs.
On power sources
• Before operating the recorder, check that the
operating voltage of the recorder is identical with
your local power supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the
recorder.
• 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.
• Be sure to turn off the recorder before
disconnecting the power cord.
• If you are not going to use the recorder for a long
time, be sure to disconnect the recorder from the
wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord
(mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the
cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On placement
• Place the recorder in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the recorder.
• Do not place the recorder on a soft surface such as a
rug that might block the ventilation holes on the
bottom.
• Do not place the recorder in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or mechanical shock.
• Do not place heavy objects such as an amplifier,
deck, etc. on top of the recorder.
On operation
• If the recorder 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
recorder. Should this occur, the recorder may not
operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and
leave the recorder turned on for about an hour until
the moisture evaporates.
On cleaning
• 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.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your recorder, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
Notes on CDs
On handling CDs
• To keep the CD clean, handle the CD by its edge.
Do not touch the surface.
• Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.
• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat
source 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.
• If there is glue or a similar substance on the CD,
remove it completely before using the CD.
• After playing, store the CD in its case.
On cleaning
• Fingerprint or dust on the CD may cause poor
sound reproduction or sound dropout.
• Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the CD from the centre out.
• If the CD is still dirty after being wiped with a
cleaning cloth, wipe it again with a slightly
moistened cloth. Then wipe off the residual
moisture with a dry cloth.
• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray
intended for vinyl LPs.
