Additional Information Synchronized recording This function lets you conduct synchronized recording between the CD and the recording component. 1 Set the source selector on the amplifier (or receiver) to the CD. 2 Set the CD to playing pause mode (make sure both the H and X indicators light together). 3 Set the recording component to recording pause mode. 4 Press X on the deck. The CD is automatically released from pause mode, and recording begins shortly thereafter. When play ends from the CD, recording stops. Tip Certain recorder components may be equipped with a special synchronized recording function that uses the CONTROL A1II Control System; like "CD Synchro Dubbing." In this case, refer to the Operating Instructions supplied with the recorder component. Note Do not set more than one component to the pause mode. Precautions On safety • Caution - The use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye hazard. • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet, unplug the player and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. On power sources • Before operating the player, check that the operating voltage of the player is identical with your local power supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the nameplate at the rear of the player. • 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. • If you are not going to use the player for a long time, be sure to disconnect the player from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug itself; never pull the cord. • The AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop. On placement • Place the player in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the player. • Do not place the player on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the ventilation holes on the bottom. • Do not place the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock. On operation • If the player 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 player. Should this occur, the player may not operate properly. In this case, leave the player turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates. On adjusting volume • Do not turn up the volume while listening to a portion with very low level inputs or no audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be damaged when a peak level portion is 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. On transportation • When transporting the player, open the front cover then remove all the discs from the player and turn the power off. If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer. 34US
