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.
