Using the Radio Data
System (RDS)
(European model only)
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 type 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.
Receiving RDS broadcasts
Simply select a station from the FM band.
When you tune in a station that provides RDS
services, the station name appears in the
display.
To check the RDS information
Each time you press DISPLAY on the remote,
the display changes as follows:
Station name* t Frequency t Clock display
t Station name* t ......
* If the RDS broadcast is not properly received, the
station name may not appear in the display.

Additional Information
Notes on CDs
• Before playing a CD, clean the CD surface with a
cleaning cloth. Wipe the CD from the center out.
• Do not play a CD with tape, stickers, or adhesives
on any of its surfaces as this may damage the
system.
• Do not use solvents.
• Do not expose the CDs to direct sunlight or heat
sources.
Precautions
On operating voltage
Before operating the system, check that the operating
voltage of your system is identical with the voltage of
your local power supply.
On safety
Cleaning the cabinet
• 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.
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it
will not be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the power 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.
• AC power cord must be changed only at the
qualified service shop.
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as thinner, benzene or alcohol.
To save a tape permanently
To prevent a tape from being accidentally recorded
over, break off the cassette tabs from side A or side B
as illustrated.
Break off the
cassette tab
On placement
• 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
If you later want to reuse the tape for recording, cover
the broken tab with adhesive tape.
— Subject to direct sunlight
Before placing a cassette in the tape
deck
On heat buildup
Take up any slack in the tape. Otherwise the tape
may get entangled in the tape deck’s playing
mechanism and become damaged.
• Although the unit heats up during operation, this is
not a malfunction.
• Place the system in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.
If you continuously use this system at a large volume,
the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom
rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not
touch the cabinet.
When using a tape longer than 90
minutes
The tape is very elastic. Do not change the tape
operations such as play, stop, and fast-winding etc.
too frequently. The tape may get entangled in the
tape deck’s playing mechanism.
To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the ventilation
hole for the cooling fan.
Cleaning the tape heads
On operation
Clean the tape heads after every 10 hours of use.
Make sure to clean the tape heads before making an
important recording or after playing an old tape. Use
a commercially available dry-type or wet-type
cleaning cassette. For details, refer to the instructions
of the cleaning cassette.
• If the system is brought directly from a cold place
to a warm place, 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 an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
Demagnetizing the tape heads
• When moving the unit, remove any disc that may be
on the disc tray.
Demagnetize the tape heads and the metal parts that
have contact with the tape after every 20 to 30 hours
of use with a commercially available demagnetizing
cassette. For details, refer to the instructions of the
demagnetizing cassette.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Speakers
Troubleshooting
Sound comes from only one channel, or the left
and right volumes are unbalanced.
Should you encounter a problem with your
system, do the following:
• Check the speaker connections and placement.
1 Make sure the power cord and speaker cords
are correctly and firmly connected.
2 Find your problem in the troubleshooting
checklist below and take the indicated
corrective action.
CD Player
The CD will not play.
• The CD is dirty.
If the problem persists after doing all of the
above, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
• The surface of the CD is scratched. Replace the
CD.
• The CD is loaded with the label side down.
General
