Operating precautions
Operating precautions
<Your CD8454 will perform well over a long period of time through correct
handling and care.>
Notes on operation
• For your safety, play only at volume levels that allow outside sounds to be
heard.
• We recommend using with this player a disc with
the logo shown to the left.
• You can play music CDs(CD-R/CD-RW) on this
player. Be sure to use discs that have been
properly processed.
Depending on the editing equipment used, some
discs may not play properly.
• Do not insert anything other than a CD and a
Memory Stick into the disc slot.
Do not insert any foreign objects, such as coins or
credit cards, into the disc slot. Be especially
watchful of children’s mischief in this regard.
• Avoid severe mechanical shock.
When the player is subjected to severe vibration
while traveling over a rough surface, playback
may be intermittent. When a situation like this
occurs, resume playback after returning to a
smoother road.
• About dew condensation.
In cold or rainy weather, just as the interior glass
surface gets fogged, dew (water condensation)
may also settle on the deck. When this occurs,
disc playback may become intermittent or
impossible. Dehumidify the air in the vehicle for a
while before resuming playback.
• Cleaning the disc slot.
The disc slot tends to get dusty. Clean it
occasionally to prevent accumulated dust from
scratching the discs.
• With the front panel open, many functions will not
operate, therefore, the front panel will need to be
closed during operation.
12
Operating precautions
About compact discs
• The signal recorded on a compact disc is read by a laser beam, so
nothing touches the disc surface. A scratch on the recorded surface or a
badly warped disc may cause deteriorated sound quality or intermittent
playback. Observe the following precautions to ensure high quality sound
performance:
• Do not leave an ejected disc in the disc slot
for very long; the disc may warp. Discs
should be stored in their cases and kept
away from high temperature and humidity.
• Do not stick a piece of paper or tape on, nor
write on or scratch either side of a disc.
• Discs spin at a high speed inside the deck.
Keep cracked or warped discs out of the
player to avoid damaging it.
• Avoid touching the recorded surface when
handling a disc; handle discs by their edges.
13
Operating precautions
About brand new CDs
About CD accessories
• You may notice that some brand
new discs are rough around the
center hole or outside edge.
Remove the rough edges with
the side of a ballpoint pen, etc.
Rough edges may prevent
proper loading in the deck.
Flakes from the rough edges
may also stick to the recorded
surface and interfere with
playback.
• Do not use accessories
(stabilizers, protective seals, laser
lens cleaners, etc.) sold for
“improving sound performance”
or “protecting CDs.” The changes
in CD thickness or outside
dimensions made by these
accessories may cause problems
in the player.
Rough Edges
Ballpoint
pen
• Please be sure NOT to attach any
ring-shape protector (or other
accessory) to your discs. Those
protectors are commercially
available and said to protect disc
and to improve sound quality
(and antivibration effect), but they
can do more harm than good in
regular uses. The most common
problems are disc insertion, disc
ejections, and won't play
problems due to the protector
ring that came off in the disc
mechanism.
Rough
Edges
Flakes

14
Operating precautions
About borrowed CDs
About irregularly-shaped CDs
• Specially-shaped CDs, like
heart-shaped or octagonal CDs,
cannot be played. Do not
attempt to play them, even with
an adapter, since they may
damage the player.
• Do not use a CD with glue or
remnants of adhesive tape or
labels. They may cause the CD
to get stuck inside or damage
the deck.
How to remove CDs
• When removing the ejected disc,
pull it straight out along the slot.
Pressing downward in the
process may scratch the
recorded surface of the disc.
OKAY
About cleaning a CD
• Use a commercially available compact disc
cleaner to clean a CD, wiping lightly from the
center to the edge.
• Do not use benzine, thinner, LP record spray
or other cleaners on CDs. They may damage
a CD’s finish.
XXXX
15
Operating precautions
About Memory Sticks
• Do not store Memory Sticks in places that are
subject to static electricity and electrical
interference, otherwise the data they contain may
become corrupted.
• In order to protect the player, the player's
functions will be stopped automatically if a
problem occurs. If the player cannot be operated
even after following the instructions that appear
on the screen, the unit is malfunctioning, and you
should ask the place of purchase for further
advice.
• If using a Memory Stick Duo, you will need to use
it with a Memory Stick Duo adapter.
• Only Memory Sticks with a capacity of up to 128
MB can be used in the unit.
• Memory Stick PRO types of Memory Stick cannot
be used.
• If MG Memory Stick is not being used for
prolonged time, remove it from the unit.
• MG Memory Sticks bearing one of the marks at
the left can be used.
• Memory Sticks bearing one of the marks at left
can be used for writing and reading data other
than music data.
MagicGate Memory Stick
and Memory Stick
are
trademarks of Sony Corporation.
• If the write protection switch on a MG Memory
Stick or Memory Stick is at the lock position, audio
recordings and other data cannot be saved onto it.
• Do not remove a MG Memory Stick while it is
being accessed for playback or recording,
otherwise the data on the MG Memory Stick may
become corrupted. If the data becomes
corrupted, it can no longer be retrieved.
• Please format the MG Memory Stick on this deck.
A MG Memory Stick formatted by another this
deck may not be playback or record data.
• When a Memory Stick is formatted, all data on that
Memory Stick will be erased. (Included Memory
Stick security recorded data and sound quality
data)
16
Operating precautions
• MG Memory Stick supplied is not formatted. MG
Memory Stick must be formatted prior to use.
"Formatting MG Memory Stick (quick format)" on
page 86 for instructions on formatting MG Memory
Sticks.
• It may not be possible to use MG Memory Sticks
that have just been purchased. If this happens,
use the unit to format the MG Memory Stick. Refer
to "Formatting MG Memory Stick (quick format)"
on page 86 for instructions on formatting MG
Memory Sticks.
• Some recordings and other data may not be
played back or writing/reading, depending on the
device that was used to save the data.
• Do not use Memory Sticks with labels that are
peeling off or that have name tags (labels)
attached.
• Store Memory Sticks in places away from direct
sunlight and high humidity, otherwise the Memory
Sticks may become unusable.
• Place Memory Sticks in their protective cases
during transportation and storage.
• Do not touch the terminals with your hands or with
metallic objects.
• When removing the ejected Memory Stick, pull it
straight out along the slot. Pressing downward in
the process may scratch the recorded surface of
the Memory Stick.
OKAY
17
Operating precautions
About cleaning the Memory Sticks
• In order to maintain good audio performance from
Memory Sticks, periodically wipe the cartridge
clean of any dust and other contamination with a
dry cloth.

settings.
• Memory Stick security (See page 26)
You can record a Memory Stick and a secret code (security code)
with the deck, and this Memory Stick or secret code (security
code) can then be matched with the deck to set and cancel the
security settings.
• ACC security (See page 35)
This method can only be used when Memory Stick security has
already been set. When ACC security is set, button operations are
disabled when the ignition switch is turned to OFF and then back
