IMPORTANT NOTICE!

Safe and efficient use

Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly

approved by Sony may void the user’s authority to

operate the equipment.

Please check for exceptions, due to national

requirement or limitations, in usage of Bluetooth

equipment before using this product.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular

user guide for detailed safety instructions.

Radio frequency exposure

RF signals may affect improperly installed or

inadequately shielded electronic systems in cars,

such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic

antiskid (antilock) braking systems, electronic speed

control systems or air bag systems. For installation

or service of this device, please consult with the

manufacturer or its representative of your car. Faulty

installation or service may be dangerous and may

invalidate any warranty that may apply to this

Check regularly that all wireless device equipment

in your car is mounted and operating properly.

Emergency calls

This Bluetooth car handsfree and the electronic

device connected to the handsfree operate using

radio signals, cellular, and landline networks as well

as user-programmed function, which cannot

guarantee connection under all conditions.

Therefore do not rely solely upon any electronic

device for essential communications (such as

medical emergencies).

Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the

handsfree and the electronic device connected to the

handsfree must be switched on in a service area with

adequate cellular signal strength.

Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular

phone networks or when certain network services

and/or phone features are in use.

Check with your local service provider.

To change display items A, press (DSPL).

RDS services

This unit automatically provides RDS services as

follows:

* except during a call

Notes

• Depending on the country/region, not all RDS

functions may be available.

• RDS will not work if the signal strength is too weak,

or if the station tuned to is not transmitting RDS

data.

Setting AF and TA

1 Press (AF/TA) repeatedly until the

desired setting appears.

Storing RDS stations with the AF and

TA setting

You can preset RDS stations along with the AF/

TA setting. If you use the BTM function, only

RDS stations are stored with the same AF/TA

setting.

If you preset manually, you can preset both RDS

and non-RDS stations with the AF/TA setting for

each.

1 Set AF/TA, then store the station with BTM or

manually.

Receiving emergency

announcements

With AF or TA on, the emergency

announcements will automatically interrupt the

currently selected source.*

* except during a call

Tip

If you adjust the volume level during a traffic

announcement, that level will be stored into memory

for subsequent traffic announcements, independently

from the regular volume level.

Staying with one regional program

— REG

When the AF function is on: this unit’s factory

setting restricts reception to a specific region, so

you will not be switched to another regional

station with a stronger frequency.

If you leave this regional program’s reception

area, set “REG-OFF” in setup during FM

reception (

page 17).

Note

This function does not work in the UK and in some

other areas.

Local Link function (UK only)

This function enables you to select other local

stations in the area, even if they are not stored on

your number buttons.

AF (Alternative Frequencies)

Selects and retunes the station with the

strongest signal in a network. By using this

function, you can continuously listen to the

same program during a long-distance drive

without having to retune the same station

manually.

TA (Traffic Announcement)/TP (Traffic

Program)

Provides current traffic information/programs.

Any information/program received, will

interrupt the currently selected source.*

PTY (Program Types)

Bluetooth function

Bluetooth operations

To use the Bluetooth function, the following

procedure is necessary.

1 Pairing

When connecting Bluetooth devices for the

first time, mutual registration is required. This

is called “pairing.” This registration (pairing)

is required only for the first time, as this unit

and the other devices will recognize each

other automatically from the next time. You

can pair up to 9 devices. (Depending on the

device, you may need to input a passcode for

each connection.)

2 Connection

Sometimes pairing allows to connect

automatically. To use the device after pairing

is made, start the connection.

3 Handsfree talking/Music streaming

You can talk handsfree and listen to music

when the connection is made.

Pairing

First, register (“pair”) a Bluetooth device

(cellular phone, etc.) and this unit with each

other. You can pair up to 9 devices. Once pairing

is established, there is no need for pairing again.

1 Place the Bluetooth device within 1 m

(3 ft) of this unit.

2 Press and hold (BT) until “ ” flashes

(about 5 seconds).

The unit enters pairing standby mode.

3 Set the Bluetooth device to search for

this unit.

A list of detected devices appears in the

display of the connecting device. This unit is

displayed as “XPLOD” on the connecting

device.

Additional Information

Precautions

• If your car has been parked in direct sunlight,

allow the unit to cool off before operating it.

• Power antenna (aerial) will extend automatically

while the unit is operating.

Moisture condensation

On a rainy day or in a very damp area, moisture

condensation may occur inside the lenses and

display of the unit. Should this occur, the unit will

not operate properly. In such a case, remove the disc

and wait for about an hour until the moisture has

evaporated.

To maintain high sound quality

Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks

onto the unit or discs.

Notes on discs

• To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface.

Handle the disc by its edge.

• Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines

when not in use.

• Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature.

Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a

dashboard/rear tray.

• 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.

• 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 unit.

Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not

use such discs.

• You cannot play 8 cm (3

1

/4 in) CDs.

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.

Notes on CD-R/CD-RW discs

• Some CD-Rs/CD-RWs (depending on the

equipment used for its recording or the condition

of the disc) may not play on this unit.

• You cannot play a CD-R/a CD-RW that is not

finalized.

• The unit is compatible with the ISO 9660 level 1/

level 2 format, Joliet/Romeo in the expansion

format, and Multi Session.

• The maximum number of:

– folders (albums): 150 (including root and empty

– files (tracks) and folders contained in a disc: 300

(if folder/file names contain many characters,

this number may become less than 300).

– displayable characters for a folder/file name is

32 (Joliet), or 64 (Romeo).

• When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only

the first track of the first session format is

recognized and played (any other format is

skipped). The priority of the format is CD-DA and

MP3/WMA.

– When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of

the first session is played.

– When the first track is not a CD-DA, the MP3/

WMA session is played. If the disc has no data

in any of these formats, “NO MUSIC” is

displayed.
