Precautions
On safety
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.
Caution – The use of optical instruments with this
product will increase eye hazard.
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.
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, grasp
the plug itself; never pull the cord.
AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
On condensation
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 MD and
leave the recorder turned on for several hours until the
moisture evaporates.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with 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.
Handling MDs
The MD is enclosed in a cartridge to protect the disc
from debris or fingerprints and to make it easy to
handle. However, the presence of debris or a warped
cartridge may inhibit the disc from operating properly.
To ensure that you can always listen to the highest
quality music, follow the precautions below:
Do not touch the internal disc directly. Forcing the
shutter open may damage the internal disc.
Be sure to stick the labels supplied with the md to
the appropriate positions. The shape of the labels
may vary depending on the MD brand.
Where to keep thge MDs
Do not place the cartridge where it may be exposed to
direct sunlight or extremely high heat and humidity.
Regular maintenance
Wipe dust and debris from the surface of the cartridge
with a dry cloth.
