Precautions
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall
into the cabinet, unplug the deck and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
On power sources
• Before operating the deck, check that
the operating voltage of the deck is
identical with your local power
supply. The operating voltage is
indicated on the nameplate at the rear
of the deck.
• 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 deck
for a long time, be sure to disconnect
the deck 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 operation
If the deck 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 deck.
Should this occur, the deck may not
operate properly. In this case, remove
the MD and leave the deck turned on
for about an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
On the MiniDisc cartridge
• Do not open the shutter to expose the
MD.
• Do not place the cartridge where it
will be subject to extremes of
sunlight, temperature, moisture or
dust.
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 deck, please consult
your nearest Sony dealer.
Welcome!
