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.
