MDX-CA580

FM/MW/LW MiniDisc Player

Welcome !

Thank you for purchasing the Sony MiniDisc

Player. This unit lets you enjoy a variety of

features using the following controller

accessories:

Optional accessories

Rotary commander RM-X4S

Card remote commander RM-X91

In addition to the MD playback and radio

operations, you can expand your system by

connecting optional CD/MD units*1.

When you operate this unit or a connected

optional CD unit with the CD TEXT function,

the CD TEXT information will appear in the

display when you playback a CD TEXT disc*2.

*1You can connect MD changers, CD changers, MD

players, or CD players.

*2A CD TEXT disc is an audio CD that includes

information such as the disc name, artist name

and track names.

This information is recorded on the disc.

Precautions

• If your car was parked in direct sunlight

resulting in a considerable rise in

temperature inside the car, allow the unit to

cool off before operating it.

• If no power is being supplied to the unit,

check the connections first. If everything is in

order, check the fuse.

•If your car is equipped with a power aerial, it

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 may condense on the lenses inside

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 quality sound

If you have drink holders near your audio

equipment, be careful not to splash juice or

other soft drinks onto the unit and MD. Sugary

residues on the unit or MD may contaminate

the lenses inside the unit, reduce the sound

quality, or prevent sound reproduction

altogether.

Notes on MDs

Since the disc itself is housed in a cartridge,

free from accidental contact with your fingers

and dust, MDs can withstand a certain degree

of the rough handling. However, dirt or dust

on the surface of the cartridge or a warped

cartridge may cause a malfunction. Observe

the following for best results.

Never touch the surface of the disc itself by

deliberately opening the shutter on the

cartridge.

When you eject the MD, the shutter may be

open. In such a case, close the shutter

immediately.

Do not expose the MD to direct sunlight or

heat sources such as hot air-ducts. Do not leave

it in a car parked in direct sunlight where there

can be a considerable rise in temperature.

Make sure the MD is not left on the dashboard

or rear tray of a car, etc. where the temperature

can also be excessive.

Notes on attaching labels

Be sure to attach labels on cartridges correctly,

as failing to do so may cause the MD to

become stuck in the unit.

•Attach the label in a suitable position.

•Remove old labels before putting new ones

on.

•Replace labels that are beginning to peel

away from the MD.

Cleaning

Wipe the surface of the cartridge from time to

time with a soft dry cloth.
