Getting Started
Inserting Batteries Into
the Remote Control
You can control the player using the supplied
remote.
Insert two R6 (size AA) batteries by matching
the + and – on the batteries to the diagram
inside the battery compartment.
Insert the negative (–) end first, then push in
and down until the positive (+) end clicks into
position.
When using the remote, point it at the remote
sensor

Tip
When the remote no longer operates the system,
replace both batteries with new ones.
Note
• Do not leave the remote near an extremely hot or
humid place.
• Do not drop any foreign object into the remote
casing, particularly when replacing the batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct sunlight
or lighting apparatuses. Doing so may cause a
malfunction.
• If you don’t use the remote for an extended period
of time, remove the batteries to avoid possible
damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
Hooking Up the System
Hookups
This section describes how to hook up the CD
player to an amplifier. Be sure to turn off the

amplifier using the remote comes with this player.
Press ANALOG OUT LEVEL +/– on the remote.
You can reduce the output level up to –20 dB.
When you reduce the analog output level, “FADE”
appears in the display.
• If you have a Sony component with the CONTROL
A1II jack, connect the component via the
CONTROL A1II jack. You can simplify the
operation of audio systems composed of separate
Sony components. For details, see “Using the
CONTROL A1II control system” on page 20.

on the disc are deleted from the program, and the
rest of the program is played in the programmed
order.
• For the recording to the A side or B side of the
cassette tape, you can pause Program Play.
Note
The total playing time doesn’t appear when:

Notes
• The portion with the highest level may differ every
time you try the adjustment on the same disc. The
difference is, however, so slight that you won’t
find any problem in adjusting the recording level
precisely.
• Peak Search does not operate while you open the
disc tray by pressing the EX-CHANGE button.

Storing Information About CDs (Custom Files)
What You Can Do With the
Custom Files
The player can store the information called
“Custom Files” for each disc. By using this
function, you can label discs using up to 12

Once you have stored Custom Files for a disc,
the player automatically recalls what you have
stored whenever you select the disc. Note that
Custom Files will be erased if you do not use
the player for about one month.
Where are Custom Files stored?

Playing Alternately (No-Delay Play/X-

Using the CONTROL A1II
control system
This player is compatible with the CONTROL
A1II Control System.
The CONTROL A1II control system was
designed to simplify the operation of audio
systems composed of separate Sony
components. CONTROL A1II connections
provide a path for the transmission of control
signals that enable automatic operation and
control features usually associated with
integrated systems.
Currently, CONTROL A1II connections
between a Sony MD deck, CD player, amplifier
(receiver), and cassette deck provide automatic
function selection and synchronized recording.
In the future the CONTROL A1II connection
will work as a multifunction bus allowing you
to control various functions for each
component.
Note
The CONTROL A1II control system is designed to
maintain upward compatibility as the control system
is upgraded to handle new functions. In this case,
however, older components will not be compatible
with the new functions.
