WARNING
Batteries or batteries installed apparatus shall
not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire or the like.
The nameplate and important information
concerning safety are located on the bottom
exterior.
Precautions
• Operate the unit only on 3 V DC with two R6/
LR6 (size AA) batteries.
• Avoid exposure to temperature extremes,
direct sunlight, moisture, sand, dust or
mechanical shock. Never leave in a car parked
under the sun.
• Should anything fall into the unit, remove the
batteries, and have the unit checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
• Since a strong magnet is used for the
speaker, keep personal credit cards using
magnetic coding or spring-wound watches
away from the unit to prevent possible
damage from the magnet.
• When the casing becomes soiled, clean it
with a soft dry cloth moistened with mild
detergent solution.
• Never use abrasive cleansers or chemical
solvents, as they may deform the casing.
• Make sure not to splash water on the unit.
This unit is not waterproof.
• Listening with this unit at high volume may
affect your hearing. For traffic safety, do not
use this unit while driving or cycling.
• Under certain circumstances, especially when
the air is very dry, it is not uncommon to
experience a discharge of static electricity, or
shock, when your body comes in contact with
another object, in this case the ear buds
touching your ear(s). The energy from this
natural discharge is extremely small and is
not emitted by your product but rather a
natural environmental occurrence.
• Depending on the strength of radio signals,
the TUNE (tuning) indicator may not light up
even if a broadcast is being received.
Furthermore, the indicator may light up
incorrectly due to extraneous noise even
when a broadcast is not being received. Use
the TUNE indicator as a reference.

When to replace the batteries
Replace all batteries with new ones when the
BATT (battery) indicator becomes dim or the
sound becomes weak.
Notes on batteries
• Do not mix an old battery with a new one or
mix different type of batteries.
• When you are not going to use the unit for a
long time, remove the batteries to avoid
damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
• Check if the batteries are inserted in the
correct orientation ( and ) when the radio
does not turn on after battery replacement.
• Batteries have a recommended use-by date
for proper use. When using expired batteries,
battery life will be extremely short. Check the
use-by date on the batteries and if they are
expired, replace them with new ones.
If the battery compartment cover comes
off
Insert the right hook tab
of the lid into the right
hole, then put the left
hook tab on the edge of
the opening and slide it
slowly until it fits into the
left hole.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
