On the speaker system  
This speaker system is not magnetically shielded and  
the picture on TV sets may become magnetically  
distorted. In such a case, turn off the TV set once, and  
after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on again.  
If there seems to be no improvement,  
locate the speaker system further away from the TV  
set. Also, be sure not to place objects in which magnets  
are attached or used near the speaker system, such as  
audio racks, TV stands and toys. These way cause  
magnetic distortion to the picture due to their  
interaction with the system.  
Additional Information  
Precautions  
On operating voltage  
Before operating the system, check that the operating  
voltage of your system is identical with the voltage of  
your local power supply.  
On safety  
• 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.  
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it  
is not to be used for an extended period of time. To  
disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out by  
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system,  
unplug the system and have it checked by qualified  
personnel before operating it any further.  
• AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified  
service shop.  
On operation  
• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a  
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,  
moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD  
player. Should this occur, the system will not operate  
properly. Remove the disc and leave the system  
turned on for about an hour until the moisture  
evaporates.  
• When you move the system, take out any disc.  
If you have any questions or problems concerning your  
system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
• The nameplate is located on the bottom exteror.  
Notes on discs  
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.  
Wipe the disc from the center out.  
• Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray  
intended for vinyl LPs.  
On placement  
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.  
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;  
– Extremely hot or cold  
– Dusty or dirty  
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat  
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car  
parked in direct sunlight.  
– Very humid  
– Subject to vibrations  
– Subject to direct sunlight.  
• Do not use discs encircled with a protection ring.  
This may cause a malfunction to the system.  
• When using discs that have glue or similar tacky  
substance on the label side of the disc or that used a  
special ink when the label was printed, there is a  
chance that the disc or label may become attached to  
parts inside this unit. When this occurs, it may not be  
possible to remove the disc, and may also cause this  
unit to malfunction. Be sure to check that the label  
side of the disc is not sticky before using.  
The following types of disc should not be used:  
– Rental or used discs with attached seals where the  
glue extends beyond the seal. The perimeter of the  
seal on the disc is tacky.  
• Use caution when placing the unit or speakers on  
surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax,  
oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the  
surface may result.  
On heat buildup  
• Although the system heats up during operation, this  
is not a malfunction.  
• Place the system in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.  
• If you continuously use this system at a high volume,  
the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom  
rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not  
touch the cabinet.  
– Discs that have labels printed using a special ink  
that feels tacky when touched.  
• To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the  
ventilation hole.  
• 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.
