Precautions

• If your car has been parked in direct sunlight,

allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

• Power antennas will extend automatically

while the unit is operating.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your unit that are not covered in this

manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture

condensation may occur inside the lenses and

display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit

will not operate properly. In such a case, remove

the disc and wait for about an hour until the

moisture has evaporated.

To maintain high sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks

onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

• To keep the disc clean, do not touch the surface.

Handle the disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc

magazines when not in use.

Do not subject the discs to heat/high

temperature. Avoid leaving them in parked cars

or on dashboards/rear trays.

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky

ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning

when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin

the disc.

• Do not use discs with any labels or stickers

attached.

The following malfunctions may result from

using such discs:

– Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or

sticker peeling off and jamming the eject

mechanism).

– Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g.,

playback skipping, or no playback) due to

heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a

disc to warp.

• 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.

• You cannot play 8 cm CDs.

7

• Before playing, clean the discs with a

commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe

each disc from the centre out. Do not use

solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially

available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended

for analog discs.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW discs

• You can play CD-Rs (recordable CDs)/CD-

RWs (rewritable CDs) designed for audio use

on this unit.

Look for these marks to distinguish CD-Rs/

CD-RWs for audio use.

These marks denote that a disc is not for audio

use.

• Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the

equipment used for its recording or the

condition of the disc) may not play on this unit.

• You cannot play a CD-R/a CD-RW that is not

finalized*.

* A process necessary for a recorded CD-R/CD-RW

disc to be played on the audio CD player.

Radio

The unit can store up to 6 stations per band

(FM1, FM2, FM3, AM1, and AM2).

Caution

When tuning in stations while driving, use Best

Tuning Memory to prevent accidents.

Storing stations

automatically

— Best Tuning Memory (BTM)

The unit selects the stations with the strongest

signals within the selected band, and stores them

in the order of their frequency.

1 Press (SOURCE) repeatedly to select

the radio.

2 Press (MODE) repeatedly to select the

band.

3 Press (MENU), then press either side

of (DISC/PRESET) repeatedly until

“BTM” appears.

4 Press (ENTER).

A beep sounds when the setting is stored.

Notes

• If only a few stations can be received due to weak

signals, some number buttons will retain their former

settings.

• When a number is indicated in the display, the unit

starts storing stations from the one currently

displayed.

Receiving the stored stations

1 Press (SOURCE) repeatedly to select

the radio.

2 Press (MODE) repeatedly to select the

band.

3 Press the number button ((1) to (6))

on the card remote commander on

which the desired station is stored.

Tip

Press either side of (DISC/PRESET) to receive the

stations in the order they are stored in the memory

(Preset Search function).

If preset tuning does not work

Press either side of (SEEK) to search

for the station (automatic tuning).

Scanning stops when the unit receives a

station. Repeat until the desired station is

received.

Tips

• If automatic tuning stops too frequently, turn on the

Local Seek to limit seek to stations with stronger

signals (see “Changing the sound and display

settings” on page 18).

• If you know the frequency of the station you want to

listen to, press and hold either side of (SEEK) to

locate the approximate frequency, then press

(SEEK) repeatedly to fine adjust to the desired

frequency (manual tuning).

If FM stereo reception is poor

Select monaural reception mode

(see “Changing the sound and display

settings” on page 18).

The sound improves, but becomes monaural

(“ST” disappears).

Note

If interference occurs, this unit will automatically

narrow the reception frequency to eliminate noise (IF

AUTO function). In such cases, some FM stereo

broadcasts may become monaural while in the stereo

reception mode.

Tips

• To always hear FM stereo broadcasts in stereo, you

can change the IF AUTO setting and widen the

frequency signal reception (see “Changing the

sound and display settings” on page 18). Note that

some interference may occur in this setting.

• If FM broadcasts are difficult to hear, set DSO to

OFF (page 19).
