Precautions
If your car was parked in direct sunlight, allow
the unit to cool off before operating it.
If no power is being supplied to the unit, check
the connections first. If everything is in order,
check the fuse.
If no sound comes from the speakers of a two-
speaker system, set the fader control to the
centre position.
When a tape is played back for a long period,
the cassette may become warm because of the
built-in power amplifier. However, this is not a
sign of malfunction.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your unit that are not covered in this
manual, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
To maintain high quality sound
Be careful not to splash juice or other soft drinks
onto the unit or tapes.
Notes on Cassettes
Cassette care
Do not touch the tape surface of a cassette, as
any dirt or dust will contaminate the heads.
Keep cassettes away from equipment with
built-in magnets such as speakers and
amplifiers, as erasure or distortion on the
recorded tape could occur.
Do not expose cassettes to direct sunlight,
extremely cold temperatures, or moisture.
Slack in the tape may cause the tape to be
caught in the machine. Before you insert the
tape, use a pencil or similar object to turn the
reel and take up any slack.
Distorted cassettes and loose labels can cause
problems when inserting or ejecting tapes.
Remove or replace loose labels.
The sound may become distorted while playing
the cassette. The cassette player head should be
cleaned after each 50 hours of use.
The use of cassettes longer than 90 minutes
is not recommended except for long
continuous play
The tape used for these cassettes is very thin and
tends to stretch easily.
Frequent playing and stopping of these tapes
may cause them to become entangled in the
cassette deck mechanism.

with the regular radio programme signal. For
example, one of the following will be displayed
upon receiving a station with RDS capability.
RDS services
RDS data offers you other conveniences, such as:
Automatic retuning of a programme, helpful
during long-distance drives. — AF t page 11
Receiving traffic announcements, even
when enjoying another programme/source.
TA t page 12
Selecting stations by the type of programme
it broadcasts. — PTY t page 13
Automatic clock time setting. — CT t page

Notes
Depending on the country or region, not all of the
RDS functions are available.
RDS may not work properly if the signal strength is
weak or if the station you are tuned to is not
transmitting RDS data.
Automatic retuning for best
reception results
— AF (Alternative Frequencies)
The AF function allows the radio to always tune

2 Press (AF) repeatedly until “AF-ON”
appears.
The unit starts searching for an alternative
frequency with a stronger signal in the same
network.
If “NO AF” flashes, the currently tuned into
station does not have an alternative frequency.
Note
When there is no alternative frequency in the area or
when you do not need to search for one, turn the AF
function off by selecting “AF-OFF.
