Precautions

On power sources

• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet (mains) if you do

not intend to use it for an extended period of time. To

disconnect the cord, pull it out by the plug, never by

the cord.

On placement

• Place the system in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.

• At high volume, over long periods of time, the cabinet

becomes hot to the touch. This is not a malfunction.

However, touching the cabinet should be avoided. Do

not place the system in a confined space where

ventilation is poor as this may cause overheating.

• Do not block the ventilation slots by putting anything

on the system. The system is equipped with a high

power amplifier. If the ventilation slots are blocked,

the system can overheat and malfunction.

• Do not place the system on surfaces (rugs, blankets,

etc.) or near materials (curtains, draperies) that may

block the ventilation slots.

• Do not install the system near heat sources such as

radiators, or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct

sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration, or

shock.

• Do not install the system in an inclined position. It is

designed to be operated in a horizontal position only.

• Keep the system and discs away from components

with strong magnets, such as microwave ovens, or

large loudspeakers.

• Do not place heavy objects on the system.

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 lenses inside the unit. Should

this occur, the system may not operate properly. In

this case, remove the disc and leave the system turned

on for about half an hour until the moisture

evaporates.

• If anything falls into the cabinet, unplug the unit and

have it checked by qualified personnel before

operating it any further.

On adjusting volume

• Do not turn up the volume while listening to a section

with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you

do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level

section is suddenly played.

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 system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

On cleaning discs, disc/lens

cleaners

• Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens cleaners

(including wet or spray types). These may cause

the apparatus to malfunction.

On your TV’s color

• If the speakers should cause your TV screen to have

color irregularity, turn off the TV then turn it on after

15 to 30 minutes. If color irregularity should persist,

place the speakers further away from your TV set.

On moving the system

• Before moving the system, make sure that there is no

disc inserted, and remove the AC power cord (mains

lead) from the wall outlet (mains).

Additional Information

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Caution: This system is capable of holding a still

video image or on-screen display image on your

television screen indefinitely. If you leave the still

video image or on-screen display image displayed

on your TV for an extended period of time you risk

permanent damage to your television screen.

Projection televisions are especially susceptible to

this.

Additional Information

On handling discs

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its

edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or

heat sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in

a car parked in direct sunlight as the

temperature may rise considerably inside the

car.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

On cleaning

• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning

cloth.

Wipe the disc from the center out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,

commercially available cleaners, or anti-static

spray intended for vinyl LPs.

This system can only play a standard circular

disc. Using neither standard nor circular discs

(e.g., card, heart, or star shape) may cause a

malfunction.

Do not use a disc that has a commercially

available accessory attached, such as a label or

ring.
