Maintenance

Replacing the lithium battery of the
card remote commander
Under normal conditions, the battery will last
approximately 1 year. (The service life may be
shorter, depending on the conditions of use.)
When the battery becomes weak, the range of the
card remote commander becomes shorter.
Replace the battery with a new CR2025 lithium
battery. Use of any other battery may present a
risk of fire or explosion.

Should the battery be swallowed, immediately
consult a doctor.
• Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good
contact.
• Be sure to observe the correct polarity when
installing the battery.
• Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers,
otherwise a short-circuit may occur.

Fuse replacement

When replacing the fuse, be
sure to use one matching the
amperage rating stated on the
original fuse. If the fuse
blows, check the power
connection and replace the
fuse. If the fuse blows again
after replacement, there may
be an internal malfunction. In
such a case, consult your
nearest Sony dealer.

front panel (page 4) and clean the connectors
