Precautions
• Play the unit on the power source specified in
"Specifications."
• To disconnect the AC power cord (mains
lead), pull it out by the plug, not the cord.
• 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.
• Do not leave the unit in a location near a heat
source such as a radiator or airduct, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
mechanical vibration, or shock.
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent
internal heat build-up. Do not place the unit on
a surface (a rug, a blanket, etc.) or near
materials (a curtain) which might block the
ventilation holes.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
unit, unplug the unit and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
• To clean the casing, use a soft cloth dampened
with a mild detergent solution.
• Never touch the wire of the external FM
antenna during a thunderstorm. Furthermore,
immediately disconnect the AC power cord
(mains lead) from the radio.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
