Additional Information Precautions On operating voltage Before operating the unit, check that the operating voltage of your unit 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 unit from the wall outlet (mains) if it is not to be used for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord (mains lead), pull it out by the plug. Never pull the cord itself. • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the component, unplug the unit and have the component checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further. • For customers in United States One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the purpose of safety and will fit to the wall outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer. • The AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop. On placement • Do not place the unit in an inclined position. • Do not place the unit in locations where it is: - extremely hot or cold - dusty or dirty - very humid - vibrating - subject to direct sunlight • 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 build-up • Although the unit heats up during operation, this is not a malfunction. • Place the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the unit. If you use this unit at a large volume, the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not touch the cabinet. To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation hole for the cooling fan. If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit, please consult your nearest Sony dealer. On operation • If the unit 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 unit will not operate properly. Remove the CD and leave the unit turned on for about an hour until the moisture evaporates. • When you move the unit, take out any discs. Notes on CDs • Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out. • Do not use solvents. • Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat sources. • 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. Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies This product is designed to playback discs that conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, various music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies are marketed by some record companies. Please be aware that among those discs, there are some that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable by this product. Note on CD-R/CD-RW playback Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may not be played back because of scratches, dirt, recording conditions or the drive's characteristics. Besides, the discs which are not yet finalized at the end of recording, cannot be played back. Cleaning the cabinet Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. To save a tape permanently To prevent a tape from being accidentally recorded over, break off the cassette tab. Refer to the instructions of the tape. Before placing a cassette in the tape deck Take up any slack in the tape. Otherwise the tape may get entangled in the parts of the tape deck and become damaged. continued Additional Information 33GB MHC-GN800 4-244-569-13 (3)
