What is the Radio Data
System?
Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting
service that allows radio stations to send
additional information along with the regular
program signal.
Note
RDS may not work properly if the station you have
tuned in is not transmitting the RDS signal properly
or if the signal is weak.
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do
they all provide the same types of services. If you
are not familiar with the RDS system, check with
your local radio stations for details on RDS services
in your area.

Additional Information
Important
If you connect an external antenna, connect the

To prevent a gas explosion, do not connect the ground
wire to a gas pipe.
Precautions
The nameplate is located on the bottom exterior.
On safety
• The glass over the display window on the cover is
made of tempered glass.
Under normal conditions, this tempered glass is
more shock resistant and able to bear more weight
than ordinary glass. This glass, however, may
shatter if it receives a sharp blow or if it is
scratched.
• The system is not disconnected from the AC power
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall
outlet, even if the system itself has been turned off.
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet if it is not to
be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the cord (mains lead), pull it out by the
plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
system, unplug the system and have it checked by
qualified personnel before operating it any further.
• The AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
• When you connect the AC power cord to the wall
outlet (mains), even though the power is off, the
system begins charging for remote and timer
functions. Therefore the surface of this unit
becomes warm, this is normal.
On placement
• Make sure the system fan is on during use. Place the
system in a location with adequate air circulation,
and do not place anything on the system.
• Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build up.
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;
— Extremely hot or cold
— Dusty or dirty
— Very humid
— Subject to vibrations
— Subject to direct sunlight.
On installing
When you move the system, remove the CD.

Precautions (continued)
On operation
Troubleshooting
If you have any problem using this system, use the
following checklist.
If the system is brought directly from a cold to a
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,
moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD
player. Should this occur, the system will not operate
properly. Remove the CD and leave the system turned
on for about 2 hours until the moisture evaporates.
First, check that the AC power cord is connected
firmly and that the speakers are connected
correctly and firmly.
Should any problem persist, consult your nearest
Sony dealer.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
General
On the speaker system
This speaker system is magnetically shielded and can
be used near TV sets. However, the picture on certain
TV sets may become magnetically distorted. In such a
case, turn off the power of the TV set once, and after
15 to 30 minutes turn it on again.
If there seems to be no improvement, locate the
speaker system further away from the TV set. Also,
be sure not to place objects in which magnets are
attached or used near the TV set, such as audio racks,
TV stands and toys. These may cause magnetic
distortion to the picture due to their interaction with
the system.
There is no sound.
• Press VOL +.
• Make sure the headphones are not connected.
• Check the speaker connections.
There is severe hum or noise.
• A TV or VCR is placed too close to the
system. Move the system away from the TV
or VCR.

Notes on CDs
• Do not use a CD with tape, stickers, or paste on it as
this may damage the player.
• Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.
Wipe the CD from the center out. Do not use
solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for
vinyl LPs.
• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight.
The timer does not function.
• Set the clock correctly.
The remote does not function.
• There is an obstacle between the remote and
