Additional Information
Precautions
• If your car was parked in direct sunlight
resulting in a considerable rise in temperature
inside the car, allow the unit to cool off before
operating it.
• If no power is being supplied to the unit,

Notes on handling CDs
A dirty or defective disc may cause sound
dropouts while playing. To enjoy optimum
sound, handle the disc by its edge. To keep the
disc clean, do not touch the surface.
Do not stick paper or tape on the labeled surface.
Do not expose the discs to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air-ducts, or leave them in a
car parked in direct sunlight where there can be
a considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
Before playing, clean the discs with an optional
cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc from the center
out.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,
commercially available cleaners, or antistatic
spray intended for analog discs.
Notes on moisture condensation
On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture
may condense on the lenses inside the CD
player. Should this occur, the unit will not
operate properly. In this case, remove the disc
and wait for about an hour until the moisture
evaporates.
When you play 8 cm (3 in.) CDs
Use the optional Sony compact disc single
adapter (CSA-8) to protect the CD player from
damage.
Maintenance
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.
Warning
Never use a fuse with an amperage rating
exceeding the one supplied with the unit as this
could damage the unit.
