How to use this manual  
This manual mainly explains operations using  
the remote, but the same operations can also be  
performed using the buttons on the system  
having the same or similar names.  
• CD-ROMs  
• CD-Rs/CD-RWs other than those recorded in  
the following formats:  
– music CD format  
– MP3 format that conforms to ISO 9660*  
Level 1/Level 2, Joliet or Multi Session**  
• A disc that has a non-standard shape (e.g.,  
card, heart).  
• A disc with paper or stickers on it.  
• A disc that has the adhesive, cellophane tape,  
or a sticker still left on it.  
Playable discs  
You can play back the following discs on this  
system. Other discs cannot be played back.  
List of playable discs  
Format of discs  
Disc logo  
* ISO 9660 Format  
The most common international standard for the  
logical format of files and folders on a CD-ROM.  
There are several specification levels. In Level 1,  
file names must be in the 8.3 format (no more than  
8 characters in the name, no more than 3 characters  
in the extension “.MP3”) and in capital letters.  
Folder names can be no longer than 8 characters.  
There can be no more than 8 nested folder levels.  
Level 2 specifications allow file names and folder  
names up to 31 characters long. Each folder can  
have up to 8 trees.  
Audio CDs  
CD-R/CD-RW  
(audio data/MP3 files)  
For Joliet in the expansion format (file and folder  
names can have up to 64 characters), make sure of  
the contents of the writing software, etc.  
**Multi Session  
This is a recording method that enables you to add  
data using the Track-At-Once method.  
Conventional CDs begin at a CD control area called  
the Lead-in and end at an area called Lead-out. A  
Multi Session CD is a CD having multiple sessions,  
with each segment from Lead-in to Lead-out  
regarded as a single session.  
CD-Extra: This format records audio (audio CD  
data) on the tracks in session 1 and data on the tracks  
in session 2.  
Mixed CD: This format records data on the first  
track and audio (audio CD data) on the second and  
subsequent tracks of a session.

Notes on CD-R and CD-RW  
Music discs encoded with  
copyright protection  
technologies  
• Some CD-Rs or CD-RWs cannot be played  
on this system depending upon the recording  
quality or physical condition of the disc, or  
the characteristics of the recording device.  
Furthermore, the disc will not play if it has not  
been correctly finalized. For more  
information, see the operating instructions for  
the recording device.  
This product is designed to playback discs that  
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.  
Recently, various music discs encoded with  
copyright protection technologies are marketed  
by some record companies. Please be aware that  
among those discs, there are some that do not  
conform to the CD standard and may not be  
playable by this product.  
• Discs recorded on CD-R/CD-RW drives may  
not be played back because of scratches, dirt,  
recording condition or the driver’s  
characteristics.  
Cautions when playing a disc  
that is recorded in Multi  
Session  
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in Multi  
Session that have not ended by “closing the  
session” are not supported.  
• The system may be unable to play MP3  
format files that do not have the extender  
“.MP3”.  
• If the disc begins with a CD-DA session, it is  
recognized as a CD-DA (audio) disc, and  
MP3 sessions are played back without sound.  
• If the disc begins with an MP3 session, it is  
recognized as an MP3 disc, and CD-DA  
sessions are played back without sound.  
• The playback range of an MP3 disc is  
determined by the tree structure of files  
produced by analyzing of the disc.  
• Attempting to play non-MP3 format files that  
have the extender “.MP3” may result in noise  
or malfunction.  
• With formats other than ISO 9660 Level 1 and  
2, folder names or file names may not be  
displayed correctly.  
• The following discs take a longer time to start  
playback.  
• A disc with a mixed CD format will be  
recognized as a CD-DA (audio) disc.  
– a disc recorded with complicated tree  
structure.  
– a disc recorded in Multi Session.  
– a disc to which data can be added (non-  
finalized disc).

non-MP3 audio tracks on the disc, it may take a long  
time for play to begin or for the next MP3 audio track  
to start play.  
• Do not save unnecessary albums or audio tracks  
other than MP3 ones in the disc to be used for MP3  
listening. We recommend that you do not save other  
types of audio tracks or unnecessary albums on a disc  
that has MP3 audio tracks.  
• An album that does not include an MP3 audio track  
is skipped.  
• Maximum album number: 150 (including root album  
and empty albums)  
• The maximum number of MP3 audio tracks and

• Playback is possible up to 8 trees.  
• Depending on the encoding/writing software,  
recording device, or the recording media used at the  
time an MP3 audio track is recorded, you may  
encounter such problems as disabled playback,  
sound interruptions and noise.  
• When playing back an MP3 audio track, the playback  
elapsed time indication may differ from the actual  
time in the following cases.  
– When you play back a VBR (variable bit rate)

Using the Radio Data  
System (RDS)  
(European model only)  
What is the Radio Data  
System?  
Radio Data System (RDS) is a broadcasting  
service that allows radio stations to send  
additional information along with the regular  
program signal. RDS is available only on FM  
stations.*  
Note  
RDS may not work properly if the station you are tuned  
in is not transmitting the RDS signal properly or if the  
signal is weak.  
* Not all FM stations provide RDS service, nor do they  
provide the same types of services. If you are not  
familiar with the RDS system, check with your local  
radio stations for details on RDS services in your  
area.  
Receiving RDS broadcasts  
Simply select a station from the FM band.  
When you tune in a station that provides RDS  
services, the station name appears in the display.  
To check the RDS information  
Each time you press DISPLAY, the display  
changes cyclically as follows:  
Station name* t Frequency t Clock display  
t Bass level t Treble level  
* If the RDS broadcast is not properly received, the  
station name may not appear in the display.

In case color irregularity is observed  
on nearby a TV screen  
With the magnetically shielded type of speaker system,  
the speakers can be installed near a TV set. However,  
color irregularity may still be observed on the TV  
screen depending on the type of your TV set.  
Additional Information  
Precautions  
On operating voltage  
Before operating the system, check that the operating  
voltage of your system is identical with the voltage of  
your local power supply.  
If color irregularity is observed…  
Turn off the TV set once, then turn it on after 15 to 30  
minutes.  
If color irregularity is observed  
again…  
On safety  
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power  
source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall  
outlet, even if the unit itself has been turned off.  
• Unplug the system from the wall outlet (mains) if it  
is not to be used for an extended period of time. To  
disconnect the power cord (mains lead), pull it out by  
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.  
Place the speakers farther away from the TV set.  
On operation  
• If the system is brought directly from a cold to a  
warm location, or is placed in a very damp room,  
moisture may condense on the lens inside the CD  
player. Should this occur, the system will not operate  
properly. Remove the disc and leave the system  
turned on for about an hour until the moisture  
evaporates.  
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system,  
unplug the system and have it checked by qualified  
personnel before operating it any further.  
• When you move the system, take out any disc.  
• AC power cord must be changed only at the qualified  
service shop.  
If you have any questions or problems concerning your  
system, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.  
On placement  
• Do not place the system in an inclined position.  
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;  
– Extremely hot or cold  
Notes on discs  
• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth.  
Wipe the disc from the center out.  
– Dusty or dirty  
• Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner,  
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray  
intended for vinyl LPs.  
– Very humid  
– Subject to vibrations  
– Subject to direct sunlight.  
• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat  
sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car  
parked in direct sunlight.  
• Use caution when placing the unit or speakers on  
surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax,  
oil, polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the  
surface may result.  
• Do not use discs encircled with a protection ring.  
This may cause a malfunction to the system.  
• When using discs that have glue or similar tacky  
substance on the label side of the disc or that used a  
special ink when the label was printed, there is a  
chance that the disc or label may become attached to  
parts inside this unit. When this occurs, it may not be  
possible to remove the disc, and may also cause this  
unit to malfunction. Be sure to check that the label  
side of the disc is not sticky before using.  
On heat buildup  
• Although the system heats up during operation, this  
is not a malfunction.  
• Place the system in a location with adequate  
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the system.  
• If you continuously use this system at a high volume,  
the cabinet temperature of the top, side and bottom  
rises considerably. To avoid burning yourself, do not  
touch the cabinet.  
The following types of disc should not be used:  
– Rental or used discs with attached seals where the  
glue extends beyond the seal. The perimeter of the  
seal on the disc is tacky.  
• To prevent a malfunction, do not cover the  
ventilation hole.  
– Discs that have labels printed using a special ink  
that feels tacky when touched.  
• 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.

Be sure to clean the tape heads before you start an  
important recording or after playing an old tape.  
Use a separately sold dry-type or wet-type cleaning  
cassette. For details, refer to the instructions of the  
cleaning cassette.  
Demagnetizing the tape heads  
Demagnetize the tape heads and the metal parts that  
have contact with the tape after every 20 to 30 hours of  
use with a separately sold demagnetizing cassette. For  
details, refer to the instructions of the demagnetizing  
cassette.  
• CD-R and CD-RW discs recorded in multi-session  
mode are not supported.  
Music discs encoded with copyright  
protection technologies  
This product is designed to playback discs that  
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently,  
various music discs encoded with copyright protection  
technologies are marketed by some record companies.  
Please be aware that among those discs, there are some  
that do not conform to the CD standard and may not be  
playable by this product.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth  
slightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not  
use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or  
solvent such as thinner, benzene or alcohol.  
To save a tape permanently  
To prevent a tape from being accidentally recorded  
over, break off the cassette tab from side A or B as  
illustrated.  
Break off the  
cassette tab
