Playing Using a Timer

You can start playing a disc at any time you want by

connecting a timer (not supplied). Please also refer to

the instructions for the timer if you need help.

Last Mode Memory

The player remembers the settings last time you used

the player even if you turn off the player. When you

turn on the player again, the player is ready to play the

disc in the same way. The player remembers the

following settings:

— Play mode (Continue [page 8], Program* [page 11]

or Shuffle [page 16])

— Repeat mode (Repeat, Repeat 1 or Repeat off [page

10])

— Fading time (page 12)

— Repeating time of the Rehearsal function (page 13)

— Shift increment of the Rehearsal function (page 13)

— Playing speed (page 15)

— Setting of the VARI SPEED ON/OFF button (page

15)

* The player remembers the programmed tracks unless you

replace the disc. When you turn on the player again, you

can play the same program.

The player also remembers all the menu option

settings. For details on menu options, see page 18.

Notes on CDs

On handling CDs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not

touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

Not this way

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources

such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car parked in direct

sunlight as there can be considerable rise in temperature

inside the car.

• Do not use any commercially available stabilizer and/or

disc protector. If you do, the disc and the player may be

damaged.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe

the disc from the center out.

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 player and have it checked by qualified

personnel before operating it any further.

On power sources

• Before operating the player, check that the operating

voltage of the player is identical with your local power

supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate

at the rear of the player.

• The player is not disconnected from the AC power source

(mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if

the player itself has been turned off.

• If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be

sure to disconnect the player 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 player in a location with adequate ventilation to

prevent heat build-up in the player.

• Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug that

might block the ventilation holes on the bottom.

• Do not place the player in a location near heat sources, or in

a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or

mechanical shock.

On operation

• If the player 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 player. Should this occur,

the player may not operate properly. In this case, remove

the disc and leave the player turned on for about an hour

until the moisture evaporates.

On adjusting volume

• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion with

very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the

speakers may be damaged when a peak level portion is

played.

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

player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray

intended for vinyl LPs.
