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. 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.
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.

Notes on CDs

On handling CDs
To keep the disc clean, handle the disc carefully. Do not stick paper or tape on the disc.

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 player is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the player 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. AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
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 as there can be considerable rise in temperature inside the car. After removing a disc from the disc slot, store the disc in its case.

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 cleaning

Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out.

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. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

COMPACT DISC PLAYER

MICROFILM

Laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for Class 1. This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product. The CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on the rear exterior. The following caution label is located inside of the unit.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer: Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, metallized knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage. Check leakage as described below. LEAKAGE The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth Ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers). Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods. 1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers instructions to use these instruments. 2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245 digital multimeter is suitable for this job. 3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The limit indication is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)

CAUTION

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. Notes on chip component replacement Never reuse a disconnected chip component. Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be damaged by heat. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing Keep the temperature of soldering iron around 270C during repairing. Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit board (within 3 times). Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or unsoldering.
