Use the AC power source whenever you record since recording consumes much power.

AC IN Battery compartment to a wall outlet

Tip

Only for the customers supplied with an AC plug adaptor:

Use the supplied AC plug adaptor if the plug of the AC power cord does not match your outlet.

Note

When you operate the player with the batteries, you cannot turn on the player using the remote.

Connecting the AC power cord

Insert one end of the supplied AC power cord to the AC IN socket located at the rear of the player, and the other end to the wall outlet.

Adjusting the voltage (CFD-V25/V34/V37 only)

Be sure to set the VOLTAGE SELECTOR (at the bottom) to your local power supply.

With normal use, the batteries should last for about six months. When the remote no longer operates the player, replace all the batteries with new ones.

Tip

Replace the batteries when the OPR/BATT indicator dims or when the player stops operating. Replace all the batteries with new ones. Before you replace the batteries, be sure to take out the CD from the player.

Using the player on batteries

Insert six R20 (size D) batteries (not supplied) into the battery compartment.

To use the player on batteries, disconnect the AC power cord from the player.

Precautions

On safety

  • As the laser beam used in the CD player section is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
  • Should any solid object or liquid fall into the player, unplug the player, and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.

On power sources

- For AC operation, check that the player's operating voltage is identical with your local power supply (see "Specifications") and use the supplied AC power cord; do not use any other type. The voltage selector is located at the bottom of the player (CFD-V25/V34/V37 only).

- 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.

- For battery operation, use six R20 (size D) batteries.

- When the batteries are not to be used, remove them to avoid damage that can be caused by battery leakage or corrosion.

- The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power consumption, etc. is located at the bottom.

On placement

  • Do not leave the player in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical shock.
  • Do not place the player on an inclined or unstable place.
  • Do not place anything within 10 mm of the side of the cabinet. The ventilation holes must be unobstructed for the player to operate properly and prolong the life of its components.
  • If the player is left in a car parked in the sun, be sure to choose a location in the car where the player will not be subjected to the direct rays of the sun.
  • Since a strong magnet is used for the speakers, keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring-wound watches away from the player to prevent possible damage from the magnet.

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 CD player section. Should this occur, the player will not operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
  • If the player has not been used for a long time, set it in the playback mode to warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a cassette.

If you have any questions or problems concerning your player, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Precautions (continued)

Notes on CDs

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

SONY CFD-V25 - Notes on CDs - 1

  • Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.
  • Do not expose the CD 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 a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
  • Do not stick paper or sticker on the CD, nor scratch the surface of the CD.
    • After playing, store the CD in its case.

If there is a scratch, dirt or fingerprints on the CD, it may cause tracking error.

Notes on cassettes

- Break off the cassette tab from side A or B to prevent accidental recording. If you want to reuse the tape for recording, cover the broken tab with adhesive tape.

Side A Tab for side B Tab for side A

- The use of a cassette with more than 90 minutes of play time is not recommended except for long, continuous recording or playback.

After trying the above remedies, if you still have problems, unplug the AC power cord and remove all the batteries. After all the indications in the display disappear, plug the power cord and insert the batteries again. If the problem persists, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Maintenance

Cleaning the lens

If the lens becomes dirty, it may cause a skipping of sound during CD operation. Clean with a commercially available blower.

Cleaning the tape heads and tape path

Wipe the heads, the pinch roller and the capstan with a cleaning swab slightly moistened with cleaning fluid or alcohol after every 10 hours of operation for optimum playback and recording quality. To make the best possible recording, however, we recommend that you clean all surfaces over which tape travels before each recording.

Record/playback head Erase head Pinch roller Capstan Lens

After cleaning, insert a tape when the areas cleaned are completely dry.

Demagnetizing the tape heads

After 20 to 30 hours of use, enough residual magnetism will have built up on the tape heads to begin to cause loss of high frequency sound and hiss. At this time, you should demagnetize the heads and all metal parts in the tape path with a commercially available tape head demagnetizer.

Cleaning the cabinet

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.
