  Under normal conditions, this tempered glass is more shock resistant and able to bear more weight than ordinary glass. This glass, however, may shatter if it receives a sharp blow or if it is scratched.
• The system is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the system itself has been turned off.
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet 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 system, unplug the system and have it checked by qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• The AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified service shop.
• When you connect the AC power cord to the wall outlet (mains), even though the power is off, the system begins charging for remote and timer functions. Therefore the surface of this unit becomes warm, this is normal.

On placement

• Make sure the system fan is on during use. Place the system in a location with adequate air circulation, and do not place anything on the system.
• Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent heat build up.
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;
  — Extremely hot or cold
  — Dusty or dirty
  — Very humid
  — Subject to vibrations
  — Subject to direct sunlight.

On installing

When you move the system, remove the CD.

On operation

If the system 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 system will not operate properly. Remove the CD and leave the system turned on for about 2 hours until the moisture evaporates.

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

On the speaker system

This speaker system is magnetically shielded and can be used near TV sets. However, the picture on certain TV sets may become magnetically distorted. In such a case, turn off the power of the TV set once, and after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on again.

If there seems to be no improvement, locate the speaker system further away from the TV set. Also, be sure not to place objects in which magnets are attached or used near the TV set, such as audio racks, TV stands and toys. These may cause magnetic distortion to the picture due to their interaction with the system.

Notes on CDs

• Do not use a CD with tape, stickers, or paste on it as this may damage the player.
• Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic 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.

Cleaning the cabinet

Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution.

Troubleshooting

If you have any problem using this system, use the following checklist.

First, check that the AC power cord is connected firmly and that the speakers are connected correctly and firmly.

Should any problem persist, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

General

There is no sound.

• Press VOL +.
  • Make sure the headphones are not connected.
• Check the speaker connections.

There is severe hum or noise.

- A TV or VCR is placed too close to the system. Move the system away from the TV or VCR.

"0:00" (or "12:00AM") flashes in the display.

- A power failure occurred. Set the clock and timer settings again.

The timer does not function.

- Set the clock correctly.

The remote does not function.

• There is an obstacle between the remote and the system.
• The remote is not pointing in the direction of the system's sensor.
• The battery has run down. Replace the battery.
• Do not place the system in locations where it is near an electric inverter system.

CD Player

The CD cannot be read.

- The CD was not placed in the disc tray properly. Place a CD vertically in the tray.

The CD will not eject.

• The CD has tape, stickers, or paste on it.

The CD will not play.

• The CD is dirty. Clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.
- The face of the CD is scratched. Exchange the CD.
• The CD is facing the wrong way.
- Moisture condensation has built up. Remove the CD and leave the system turned on for about 2 hours until the moisture evaporates.

Play does not start from the first track.

- The player is in program or shuffle play mode. Press PLAY/TUNING MODE repeatedly until "SHUF" and "PGM" disappear.

"-OVER-" is displayed.

- By pressing ▶▶, the last track on the disc has been exceeded. Press and hold (or press repeatedly) ◀◀ or ◀◀ to return to a track where playing can begin.

Troubleshooting (continued)

Tuner

Severe hum or noise ("TUNED" or "STEREO" flashes in the display).

• Remove the FM antenna from the rear panel and place the antenna outside the cabinet. Adjust the antenna.
• The signal strength is too weak. Connect an external antenna.
  • Make sure the antenna is connected properly.
• The AM antenna wire is detached from the stand.

A stereo FM program is not received in stereo.

- Press STEREO/MONO so that "STEREO" appears.

If other problems not described above occur, reset the system as follows:

1 Unplug the AC power cord.
2 Hold down I/☐, then plug the AC power cord into the wall outlet again.

The system is reset to the factory settings. All the settings you made, such as the preset stations, clock, and timer are cleared. You should set them again.
