Precautions

On safety
• Do not disassemble the cabinet — this may result in an
electrical shock. Refer servicing to qualified personnel
only.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the tape deck and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
On power sources
• Before operating the tape deck, check that the operating
voltage of the tape deck is identical with your local power
supply. The operating voltage is indicated on the

• If you are not going to use the tape deck for a long time,
be sure to disconnect the tape deck from the wall outlet.
To disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead), grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified
service shop.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
(mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the unit itself has been turned off.
On operation
• Because of a safety mechanism, the function buttons will
not operate if the cassette holder is not completely closed,
if there is no cassette in the cassette holder, or if a cassette
has been incorrectly inserted into the cassette holder.
• Be sure to stop the tape before turning off the tape deck.
Otherwise, the tape may be damaged.
On placement
• Place the tape deck in a location with adequate ventilation
to prevent heat build-up in the tape deck.
• Do not place the tape deck:
— on a soft surface such as a rug that might block the
ventilation holes on the bottom.
— in a location near heat sources.
— in a place subject to direct sunlight.
— in an inclined position.
— in a place subject to excessive dust or mechanical shock.
On cleaning the tape deck
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent
such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
tape deck, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
