Before Installation  
The unit should be installed in an area with  
good reception.  
Installing the Unit Under a  
Cabinet  
The unit can be installed without the spacer.  
Im p ro vin g t h e Re ce p t io n

the supplied template. Use a drill to  
make the holes (diameter size-6.5 mm  
dia., 9/32 inch).  
FM: The AC power cord functions as an FM

Window.  
Mounting  
screw  
2 Press CLOCK for a few seconds.  
You will hear a beep and the hour digits  
will start to flash in the Clock Display  
Window.

the correct hour appears in the Clock  
Display Window.  
4 Press CLOCK (or ENTER) once.  
Cautions  
The minute digits will flash.  
• Since the unit is quite heavy, be careful when  
installing the unit.  
• Hold the unit horizontally when installing it,  
since the disc tray may open if the unit is shaken.  
• To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any  
heating or cooking appliance beneath this unit.  
• Install the unit so that its AC power cord can be  
connected directly to a wall outlet. Do not use a  
converter or extension cord.  
• Be sure that the AC power cord has no slack  
when using the unit, since the cord acts as an FM  
wire antenna. If the AC power cord has some  
slack, wind up the slack on the cord hook.  
• The unit has a built-in ferrite bar antenna for AM  
radio reception. Check the condition of AM  
reception before fixing in position.

seconds start counting from zero.  
Tips  
• Install the unit as far as possible from a source of  
noise (for example, refrigerator, microwave  
oven, fluorescent lamp, etc.).  
• To set the current time rapidly, hold down  
RADIO TUNE/TIME SET –, m(fast reverse) or +,  
M(fast forward).  
• To set the current time exactly to the seconds,  
adjust the minute function in step 6 and then  
press CLOCK (or ENTER) to synchronize it with a  
time signal (such as the telephone time signal).  
• In the 12-hour system: “AM 12:00” = midnight.

Notes on discs  
• To keep the disc clean, do not touch the  
surface. Handle the disc by its edge.  
• Keep your discs in their cases or disc  
magazines when not in use. Do not subject  
the discs to heat/ high temperature. Avoid  
leaving them in parked cars or on  
dashboards/ rear trays.  
Preparing the Remote  
Control  
In st a llin g t h e b a t t e rie s in t o t h e  
re m o t e co n t ro l  
Insert two size AA (R6) batteries (not  
supplied).  
• Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky  
ink/ residue. Such discs may stop spinning  
when used, causing a malfunction, or may  
ruin the disc.  
x
• Do not use any discs with labels or stickers  
attached.  
The following malfunctions may result from  
using such discs:  
— Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or  
sticker peeling off and jamming the eject  
mechanism).  
— Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g.,  
playback skipping, or no playback) due to  
heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing  
a disc to warp.  
• Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,  
square, star) cannot be played on this player.  
Attempting to do so may damage the player.  
Do not use such discs.  
Wh e n t o re p la ce t h e b a t t e rie s  
With normal use, the batteries should last for  
about six months. When the remote control no  
longer operates the kitchen clock radio, replace  
all the batteries with new ones.  
Notes  
• Do not charge the dry batteries.  
• When you are not going to use the remote  
control for a long time, remove the batteries to  
avoid any damage caused by leakage and  
corrosion.  
• Before playing, clean the discs with a  
commercially available 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.

causing serious injury to a child or an adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only a cart,  
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by Sony.  
-An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and  
uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.  
Wa ll o r Ce ilin g Mo u n t in g  
If your appliance can be mounted to a wall or ceiling, mount it only as recommended by Sony.  
USE  
Po w e r So u rce  
This appliance should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label.  
If you are not sure of the type of electrical power supplied to your home, consult your dealer or local  
power company. For those appliances designed to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer  
to the operating instructions.  
Gro u n d in g o r Po la riza t io n  
This appliance is equipped with a polarized AC power cord plug (a plug having one blade wider than  
the other), or with a three-wire grounding type plug (a plug having a third pin for grounding). Follow  
the instructions below:  
-Fo r t h e a p p lia n ce w it h a p o la rize d AC p o w e r co rd p lu g :  
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to  
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact  
your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized  
plug by forcing it in.  
-Fo r t h e a p p lia n ce w it h a t h re e -w ire g ro u n d in g t yp e AC p lu g :  
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to  
insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat  
the safety purpose of the grounding plug.  
Ove rlo a d in g  
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since  
this can result in fire or electric shock.  
Wh e n n o t in u se  
Unplug the power cord of the appliance from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.  
To disconnect the cord, pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the plug out by the cord.  
Po w e r-Co rd Pro t e ct io n  
Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or  
against them, paying particular attention to the plugs, receptacles, and the point where the cord exits  
from the appliance.  
Lig h t n in g  
For added protection for this appliance during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and  
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable  
system. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning and powerline surges.  
Ob je ct a n d Liq u id En t ry

ANTENNAS  
Ou t d o o r An t e n n a Gro u n d in g  
If an outdoor antenna or cable system is installed, follow the precautions below.  
An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other  
electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.  
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN  
TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM  
IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.  
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and  
built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect  
to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an  
antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection  
to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
