Precautions

• If your car has been parked in direct sunlight,

allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

• Power aerials 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

condensation may occur inside the lenses and

display of 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 sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks

onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

• To keep the disc clean, do not touch the surface.

Handle the disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc

magazines when not in use.

Do not subject the discs to heat/high

temperature. Avoid leaving them in parked cars

or on dashboards/rear trays.

• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky

ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning

when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin

the disc.

• Do not use discs with any labels or stickers

attached.

The following malfunctions may result from

using such discs:

– Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or

sticker peeling off and jamming the eject

mechanism).

– Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g.,

playback skipping, or no playback) due to

heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a

disc to warp.

• 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.

• You cannot play 8 cm CDs.

• Before playing, clean the discs with a

commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe

each disc from the centre out. Do not use

solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially

available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended

for analogue discs.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW discs

• You can play CD-Rs (recordable CDs)/CD-

RWs (rewritable CDs) designed for audio use

on this unit.

Look for these marks to distinguish CD-Rs/

CD-RWs for audio use.

These marks denote that a disc is not for audio

use.

• Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the

equipment used for its recording or the

condition of the disc) may not play on this unit.

• You cannot play a CD-R/a CD-RW that is not

finalized*.

*A process necessary for a recorded CD-R/CD-RW
