If your portable audio device has separate settings for headphone and LINE  
OUT, set the portable audio device to the headphone setting. Sound may be  
distorted if it is connected to LINE OUT.  
With this unit, you can enjoy listening to audio played on portable audio devices  
through a car FM radio. Music from portable audio devices such as an HDD,  
flash memory, MD or CD WALKMAN*, etc., is transmitted to the car’s FM  
radio via FM radio waves.

AVERTISSEMENT  
After setup, reception from this unit declines while driving.  
c FM broadcast reception may be poor in certain locations, such as  
underground parking, behind tall buildings, etc. If the car radio and this unit  
were set up in such a location; due to poor FM broadcast reception, the  
frequency you set for this unit may be already occupied. If so, the occupying  
FM broadcast station is received when its reception conditions improve (as  
you drive) resulting in interference with this unit’s same set frequency. In  
this case, reset the car radio and this unit to another open frequency in a  
location where the FM broadcast reception is better.  
Pour éviter tout risque d’incendie ou de choc électrique, n’exposez  
pas l’appareil à la pluie ou à l’humidité.  
Pour éviter tout choc électrique, n’ouvrez pas le boîtier. Confiez l’entretien à un  
technicien qualifié exclusivement.  
N’installez pas l’appareil dans un espace confiné, tel qu’une bibliothèque ou une  
armoire encastrée.  
Pour éviter tout risque d’incendie ou de choc électrique, ne placez pas d’objets  
remplis de liquide, tels que des vases, sur l’appareil.  
Stable clear sound  
• Using the flexible transmitting antenna cable, it is possible to transmit a stable  
FM radio wave in any kind of car. The flexible transmitting antenna cable has a  
magnet to anchor itself to a metal part inside the car.  
• Digital frequency selection, rather than analog, assures a more stable and clear  
transmission.

The small design of this unit allows it to be used in the cigarette lighter socket.  
This unit is designed so as its protruding part is in one direction only, and when  
installed can be rotated in order to avoid any obstructions around the cigarette  
lighter socket.  
Remarque  
c FM broadcast reception conditions vary from one location to another. After  
setting an open frequency in one location, as you move to other areas, that  
frequency may become occupied by a broadcast station’s signal. In this case,  
reset the frequency on both the car radio and this unit to another open  
frequency.

• Unplug this unit from the cigarette lighter socket whenever the engine of the  
car is not running. Depending on the car type, even if the ignition key is off, the  
power supply may not turn off automatically. In this case, this may cause  
unnecessary car battery consumption.  
• When not in use, unplug this unit from the cigarette lighter socket and store in a  
safe place where it will not interfere with your driving or become entangled in  
parts of the car interior (seat, door, etc.).

Remarques  
• Pour plus de détails sur les réglages de l’autoradio, reportez-vous au mode  
d’emploi de celui-ci.  
• Baissez le volume avant de régler l’autoradio.  
The selected frequency appears in the frequency display window. The  
mark appears at the transition point between a low frequency band  
(88.1 MHz~88.9 MHz) and a high frequency band (106.7 MHz~107.9 MHz).  
The mark is a border between high frequency and low frequency.  
• Be sure to fully secure the portable audio device connected to the unit to avoid  
moving when braking.  
• Route the antenna cable or signal cable properly so that they will not interfere  
with your driving or become entangled in parts of the car interior (seat, door,  
etc.).  
• Never yank or pull the antenna cable or signal cable. This may cause  
malfunctions or wire breaks.  
• Do not drop or hit the unit. This may cause malfunctions.  
Notes  
• Route the antenna cable close to the car antenna. This may help to improve  
the reception from this unit.  
• For details about the car radio antenna, refer to the car operating  
instructions.

About the antenna cable magnet  
The antenna cable is supplied with a magnet attached at the end. It  
is used to anchor the cable to a metal part of the car, such as a  
passenger’s seat rail (see illustration below). The magnet at the end  
of the antenna cable is to anchor the antenna’s best reception  
position and prevents it being moved, for example, when  
passengers get in or out of the car.  
Troubleshooting  
Should any problem persist after you have made the following checks, consult  
your nearest Sony dealer.
