Notes on discs

• To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface.

Handle the disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc

magazines when not in use.

• Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature.

Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a

dashboard/rear tray.

• 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 any discs with 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 (3 in) CDs.

• Before playing, clean the discs with a

commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe

each disc from the center 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/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.

Additional Information

Maintenance

Fuse replacement

When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one

matching the amperage rating stated on the

original fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power

connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse blows

again after replacement, there may be an internal

malfunction. In such a case, consult your nearest

Sony dealer.

Warning

Never use a fuse with an amperage rating

exceeding the one supplied with the unit as this

could damage the unit.

Cleaning the connectors

The unit may not function properly if the

connectors between the unit and the front panel

are not clean. In order to prevent this, detach the

front panel (page 8) and clean the connectors

with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol. Do not

apply too much force. Otherwise, the connectors

may be damaged.

Notes

• For safety, turn off the ignition before cleaning the

connectors, and remove the key from the ignition

switch.

• Never touch the connectors directly with your fingers

or with any metal device.
