ese are normal and not malfunctions.
Vibration or noise in the unit increases
during recording of a CD.
e hard disk rotates faster during CD
recording than during CD playback, so
the increase in vibration or noise is not a
malfunction.
e amount of vibration or noise produced
depends on the CD type.

Precautions/Specifications
Precautions
On safety
On heat buildup
Consideration for others
Keep the volume at a moderate
level out of consideration of your
neighbors, especially at night.
Completely disconnect the
power cord (mains lead) from
the wall socket (mains) if it
is not going to be used for an
extended period of time. When
unplugging the unit, always grip
the plug. Never pull the cord
itself.
Should any solid object or liquid
get into the unit, unplug the unit,
and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it
again.
Heat buildup on the unit during
operation is normal and is not
cause for alarm.
Do not touch the cabinet if it has
been used continuously at a high
volume because the cabinet may
have become hot.
Do not block the ventilation
holes on the bottom of this unit.
Doing so will prevent the heat
produced by the unit’s amplifier
to build up, which may cause the
unit to malfunction. Make sure
these holes are free from any
obstruction.
About the Hard Disk Drive
Because of its high storage
density, the hard disk can read
and write data a very high speeds.
It is, however, easily damaged by
mechanical vibration, shock, or
dust. Although the hard disk is
equipped with safety mechanisms
to prevent the lost of data due
to these factors, the following
precautions should be taken during
the handling of the unit.
e AC power cord can be
changed only by a qualified
service facility.
Do not subject the unit to strong
shocks or vibrations.
When moving the unit
On placement
Do not move the unit while a CD
is inserted. Doing so may damage
the CD.
Do not place the unit in a
location subject to mechanical
vibration or at an unstable
location.
Do not move the unit while the
power cord is connected to a
wall outlet.
Do not disconnect the power
cord while the unit is recording
or playing a track.
Do not use the unit in a place
subject to extreme changes in
temperature (a temperature
gradient greater than 18°F
(10°C)/hour).
Do not attempt to replace or
upgrade the hard disk drive by
yourself, as this may cause the
unit to malfunction.
Sony cannot provide compensation
for any loss of data caused by a
damaged hard disk drive.
Do not place the unit in an
inclined position or in locations
that are extremely hot, cold,
dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking
adequate ventilation, or subject
to vibration, direct sunlight or a
bright light.
Be careful when placing the
unit or speakers on surfaces that
have been specially treated (for
example, with wax, oil, polish) as
staining or discoloration of the
surface may result.
If the unit 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, and cause the unit to
malfunction. In this situation,
remove the disc, and leave the
unit turned on for about an hour
until the moisture evaporates.
On the speaker system
is speaker system is not
magnetically shielded, and the
picture on nearby TV sets may
become magnetically distorted. In
this situation, turn off the TV, wait
15 to 30 minutes, and turn it back
on. If there is no improvement,
move the speakers far away from
the TV.
On volume adjustment
CDs reproduce sound with
considerably less noise than vinyl
records. For this reason, if you raise
the volume while listening to a
segment containing only noise (as
you might do in the case of a vinyl
record), a sudden output of high-
volume sound may cause damage
to the speakers.
Make sure to lower the volume
before the start of playback.
ꢂꢂGB
Cleaning the cabinet
Music discs encoded with
copyright protection
technologies
Clean this unit with a soſt cloth
slightly moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Do not use
any type of abrasive pad, scouring
powder, or solvent, such as thinner,
benzine, or alcohol.
is product is designed to
playback discs that conform to
the Compact Disc (CD) standard.
Recently, various music discs
encoded with copyright protection
technologies are marketed by
some record companies. Please be
aware that among those discs, there
are some that do not conform to
the CD standard and may not be
playable by this product.
Note on the power cord
Before you unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet, make sure
that the unit is turned off. If you
unplug the power cord while the
unit is operating, data that was
recorded may be lost or the unit
may malfunction.
Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc
product which mates DVD
recorded material on one side with
digital audio material on the other
side. However, since the audio
material side does not conform to
the Compact Disc (CD) standard,
playback on this product is not
guaranteed.
Notes on CDs
Do not scratch or attach stickers
to the surface of the disc.
CDs with non-standard shapes
(e.g., a star, heart, or square)
cannot be played on this unit.
Attempting to do so may damage
the unit.
When cleaning the disc, use a
cleaning cloth and wipe the disc
from the center out to the edge.
If the disc is extremely dirty,
wipe the disc with a slightly
moistened cloth, followed by
a dry cloth. Do not clean a
disc with a benzine thinner,
commercial cleaners or anti-
static sprays intended for vinyl
LPs.
Note on MP3/WMA/AAC files
Compatibility with all MP3/WMA/
AAC encoding/writing soſtware,
recording device, and recording
media cannot be guaranteed.
Incompatible MP3/WMA/AAC
files may produce noise or
interrupted audio or may not play
at all.
Do not place discs in hot places,
including places exposed to
direct sunlight, near heat sources
such as hot air ducts, or inside
parked cars.
Do not use a rental or second-
hand disc on which glue that
spread from under the label
attached to it. If you do, there is a
chance that the disc may become
stuck to parts within the unit,
causing it to malfunction.
Do not use a commercial
cleaning disc as it may cause the
unit to malfunction.

About CDs
The unit CAN play the following
discs
CDs:
Music CDs, CD-Rs and CD-RWs
MP3 files:
CD-Rs and CD-RWs (recorded
in a format conforming to the
ISO 9660 Level 1 or 2, or Joliet
standards). Multisession CDs are
supported.
Notes
If the disc begins with a CD-DA
(or MP3) session, it is recognized
as a CD-DA (or MP3) disc, and
other sessions are not played
back.
A disc with a mixed CD format
is recognized as a CD-DA
(audio) disc.
Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs may
not be played on this unit,
depending on its characteristics
and the recording conditions.
CD-RWs may require some time
before they begin to play. is
is because they have a lower
reflection index than other kinds
of discs.
In the case of discs containing
more than 511 tracks of audio
data, the unit will not recognize
track 512 or above.
Discs with many directories
or a complicated structure
may require some time before
they start playing. When
recording albums to a disc, it is
recommended that recording
will be done no deeper than the
sub-directory 2 level.
Tip
For details on writing data to a
disc, refer to the operating manual
supplied with the CD-R/RW drive
or soſtware for burning data.

Glossary
Bit rate
e bit rate is a measure of data
volume expressed in bits per
second (bps).
MP3
DAB (Digital Audio
Broadcasting)-related
terms (UK model only)
Abbreviation of MPEG-1 Audio
Layer3. It is a standard for audio
file compression determined by the
MPEG (Motion Picture Experts
Group), an ISO (International
Organization for Standardization)
working group. It enables
compression of audio files to about
1/10 of the data size of a standard
compact disc. Since the MP3
encoding algorithm is disclosed,
there are various encoders/
Dynamic label segment
e text data transmitted for each
channel or service.
Byte
One of the fundamental units
used to express digitized data
in computers. Digitized data is
commonly expressed in binary
digits (zeros and ones). A single
unit of data is one bit. One byte
consists of eight bits.
Ensemble label
In DAB, multiple digital radio
channels are transmitted using
a single radio transmission or
frequency. A group of channels sent
this way is called an “ensemble”
and “ensemble label” is the name of
such a group.
decoders that are compliant with
this standard. e MP3 standard
is therefore widely used in the
computer field.
Condensation
Condensation occurs inside the
unit during where there is a quick
rise in temperature, as when a
heater is turned on. If condensation
occurs, keep the unit turned off
until the moisture evaporates.
Service label
e name of an individual digital
radio channel or service.
Sampling frequency
When audio sources are converted
from analog to digital data, they
must be changed into numbers
(digitized). is process is called
sampling, and the sampling
frequency refers to the number of
times per second that the signals
are measured for the recording.
Music CDs are sampled at 44,100
times per second, so the sampling
frequency is expressed as 44.1 kHz.
Generally, the higher the sampling
frequency, the higher the fidelity of
the recording.
