FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - Walkman WM-FS395 SONY

Comment insérer une cassette ?

Ouvrez le couvercle du compartiment à cassette en appuyant sur le loquet. Placez la cassette avec la bande visible vers l'extérieur et la face souhaitée vers le haut. Refermez le couvercle jusqu'au déclic.

Que faire si la bande se coince ?

Arrêtez immédiatement la lecture. Ouvrez le compartiment et retirez la cassette délicatement. Si la bande est emmêlée, utilisez un crayon pour la rembobiner manuellement. Vérifiez que les galets sont propres.

Comment enregistrer avec le microphone intégré ?

Insérez une cassette vierge. Appuyez sur la touche 'Record' (souvent rouge) tout en maintenant 'Play' enfoncé. Parlez dans le microphone intégré situé sur le dessus. Pour arrêter, appuyez sur 'Stop'.

Quel type de piles utiliser ?

Utilisez deux piles AA (LR6) alcalines ou rechargeables. Les piles rechargeables offrent une autonomie moindre. Respectez la polarité indiquée dans le compartiment.

Comment nettoyer les têtes de lecture ?

Éteignez l'appareil et retirez les piles. Ouvrez le compartiment à cassette. Utilisez un coton-tige légèrement imbibé d'alcool isopropylique pour nettoyer délicatement les têtes de lecture et les galets en rotation. Laissez sécher avant utilisation.

Pourquoi le son est-il faible ou déformé ?

Vérifiez le volume et la propreté des têtes. Nettoyez les têtes si nécessaire. Assurez-vous que la cassette n'est pas usée. Testez avec un autre casque. Si le problème persiste, les piles peuvent être faibles.

Peut-on brancher des haut-parleurs externes ?

Non, la sortie audio est conçue uniquement pour des écouteurs ou un casque avec une impédance de 16 à 32 ohms. Brancher des haut-parleurs peut endommager l'appareil.

Comment utiliser le clip ceinture ?

Le clip rotatif se trouve à l'arrière de l'appareil. Faites-le pivoter à 90 degrés pour le déplier, puis fixez-le à votre ceinture ou à une bande. Assurez-vous qu'il est bien verrouillé.

Que faire si la touche 'Play' ne fonctionne pas ?

Vérifiez que la cassette est correctement insérée et que les piles sont chargées. Si le problème persiste, il peut y avoir une obstruction mécanique. N'essayez pas de forcer ; contactez un service de réparation.

Comment régler la vitesse de la bande ?

La vitesse de lecture est fixe (4,76 cm/s). Un réglage est possible uniquement via un potentiomètre interne à l'aide d'un tournevis d'horloger, mais cela n'est pas recommandé sans compétence technique.

Precautions

Notes on Headphones

Concerning road safety

Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or operating any motorized vehicle. It may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas. It can also be potentially dangerous to play your headsets at high volume while walking, especially at pedestrian crossings. You should exercise extreme caution or discontinue use in potentially hazardous situations.

Preventing hearing damage

Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others

Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people around you.

Taking Care of Your Walkman

- Before opening or closing the cassette holder, be sure to wipe off water, dust or sand on the exterior of the Walkman.

- Avoid exposing the Walkman to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or mechanical shock. Never leave the Walkman in a car parked in the sun.

- Since water in the headphones jack may cause rust, cover it with the attached rubber cap when the headphones are not in use.

• The supplied headphones are not meant to be immersed in water or come in continuous contact with water. If they are accidentally dropped into water or get wet, dry them with a soft cloth. Never use an electric hair dryer.

- If the Walkman or the headphones are immersed in salt water, be sure to wash them in non-running fresh water. Never wash them under running water, and never use soap or detergent.

- Prolonged use may contaminate the tape head. If sound drop-out or excessive noise occurs, clean the head and tape path with alcohol.

- Clean the headphones plug periodically for optimum sound.

- Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner to clean the case.

About the rubber packing

- Any sand or dust on the rubber packing will prevent the cassette holder from closing tightly, and water may leak in. Brush off the dust once in a while.

• We recommend the packing to be changed every year. Replacement packing is available at an authorized Sony Service Facility.

If you have any question or problem concerning your Walkman, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
