Additional

Information

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 switching on.

• If no power is being supplied to the unit,

check the connections first. If everything is in

order, check the fuse.

• If no sound comes from the speakers of a

2-speaker system, set the fader control to the

center position.

If you have any questions or problems

concerning your unit that are not covered in

this manual, please consult your nearest Sony

dealer.

Notes on Cassettes

Cassette care

• Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as

any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.

• Keep cassettes away from equipment with

built-in magnets such as speakers and

amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the

recorded tape could occur.

• Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,

extremely cold temperatures or moisture.

• When the tape is played back for a long

period, the cassette shell may become warm

because of the built-in power amplifier.

However, this is not a sign of a malfunction.

Cassettes longer than 90 minutes

The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes is

not recommended except for long continuous

play. The tapes used for these cassettes are

very thin and tend to be stretched easily.

Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes

may cause them to be pulled into the cassette

deck mechanism.

Maintenance

Fuse Replacement

When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one

matching the amperage rating stated on the

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,

open the front panel by pressing (RELEASE),

then detach it and clean with a cotton swab

dipped in alcohol. Do not apply too much

force. Otherwise, the connector may get

damaged.
