Note
The battery life may be shorter than that
specified, depending on the temperature of the
location, the operating conditions, and the type
of battery being used.

You can operate the player without a
rechargeable battery or a dry battery.  To do
this, connect the battery-charging case with
speakers to an AC outlet through the AC
power adaptor, and then attach the player on
the battery-charging case.

B

• Make sure to keep the player in the supplied

carrying pouch.  If the terminals on the player,
battery-charging case with speakers, or the dry
battery case are accidentally brought into
contact with a metallic object, they may short-
circuit and begin to heat up.

• Keep the terminals on the player or on the dry

battery case away from metallic objects or
surfaces.  Such contact may short-circuit the
terminals and cause dangerous heat
generation.  When carrying the player with
you, always keep the battery case attached to
the supplied battery-charging case.

• When you carry the supplied rechargeable

battery, be sure to put it in the supplied
rechargeable battery carrying case.  Carrying
the rechargeable battery without the case may
cause a short-circuit with metallic objects such
as coins, key rings, or necklaces.  As a result,
heat may be generated.

• Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN

3V jack.

• Do not carry or store the dry battery or battery

case in the same place with metallic objects
such as coins, key rings, or necklaces.  This
may cause a short-circuit and the generation of
heat.

• Incorrect battery usage may cause the battery

fluid to leak or battery to burst.  To prevent
such accidents, observe the following
precautions:
— Install battery with the + and – poles

aligned correctly.

— Do not charge dry battery.

• If a battery leak should develop, carefully and

thoroughly wipe away the battery fluid in the
battery compartment before inserting a new
battery.

• If you will not use the player for a long time,

be sure to disconnect the power supply (AC
power adaptor, dry battery, rechargeable
battery, or the battery-charging case).  When
disconnecting the AC power adaptor from the
electrical outlet, grasp the adaptor plug itself;
never pull the cord.

• For use in your house:  Use the supplied AC

power adaptor or the optional AC-E30A  AC
power adaptor.  Do not use any other AC
power adaptor since it may cause the player to
malfunction.

• Connect the AC power adaptor to an easily

accessible AC outlet.  Should you notice an
abnormality in the AC power adaptor,
disconnect it from the AC outlet immediately.

• The supplied battery-charging case with

speakers can be used only with the
MZ-E810SP.  It cannot be used to charge any
other models.

• Do not use the supplied battery-charging case

with speakers to charge any other battery
besides the one designated for it.

• Charge the rechargeable battery at a

temperature of  +5°C (+41°F) to +40°C
(+104°F).  The charging time will vary
according to the surrounding temperature.

• The battery-charging case and the battery may

become hot during the charging procedure;
this, however poses no danger.

• Because of the battery’s characteristics, the

capacity of the battery may be smaller than
normal when it is used for the first time or
after a long period of disuse.  In this case,
charge and discharge the battery several times.
The normal battery life will be restored.

• If the capacity of the rechargeable battery

drops to half the normal amount, replace it
with a new one.

• As soon as the charging is complete, remove

the player from the battery-charging case and
disconnect the battery-charging case from the
electrical outlet.  Leaving it connected may
result in reduced battery performance.

• Do not drop or bump the player.  This may

cause the player to malfunction.

• Do not pull on the remote control or

headphones/earphones cords.

• Do not place the player in the following

places:
— An extremely hot place (over +60°C

(+140°F))

— A place exposed to direct sunlight or near a

heater

— In a car with the windows rolled up

(especially in the summer)

— In a damp place such as a bathroom
— Near a source of electromagnetic fields such

as a magnet, speaker, or  TV

— In a dusty place

Heat may build up in the player when it is
charging or operated for a long time.  This,
however, is not a malfunction.

The player emits mechanical noise while
operating, which is caused by the power-
saving system of the player.  This is not a
malfunction.

• Never use the player where it will be subjected

to extremes of light, temperature, moisture or
vibration.

• Never wrap the player in anything when it is

being used with the AC power adaptor.  Heat
build-up in the player may cause malfunction
or injury.

The supplied remote control is designed for
use with the MZ-E810SP only.  Note also that
the player cannot be controlled by remote
controls for other models.

• Do not touch the internal disc directly.

Forcing the shutter open may damage the
internal disc.

• When transporting a minidisc, keep it in its

case.

• Do not place the cartridge where it will be

subjected to light, temperature, moisture or
dust.

• Do not affix the label outside of the specified

area on the MD.  Make sure the label is placed
within the recessed space on the disc.

Road safety
• Do not use headphones/earphones while

driving, cycling, or operating any motorized
vehicle.  This may lead to a traffic accident and
is illegal in many areas.  It can also be
potentially dangerous to play your player at
high volumes while walking, especially at
pedestrian crossings.  You should exercise
extreme caution or discontinue using the
player in potentially hazardous situations.

• If you experience an allergic reaction to the

supplied headphones/earphones, stop using
them at once and consult a doctor or a Sony
service center.

Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones/earphones at high
volumes.  Hearing experts advise against
continuous, loud and extended play.  If you
experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the
volume or discontinue use.

Caring for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level.  This
will allow you to hear outside sounds and to
be considerate of the people around you.

The supplied dry battery case is designed for
use with the MZ-E810SP only.

• After wiping the player casing with a soft

cloth slightly moistened with water, wipe it
again with a dry cloth.  Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such
as alcohol or benzene as this may mar the
finish on the casing.

• Wipe the disc cartridge with a dry cloth to

remove dirt.

• Dust on the lens may prevent the unit from

operating properly.  Be sure to close the disc
compartment lid after inserting or ejecting an MD.

• To maintain good sound quality, use a soft

cloth to clean the plugs of the headphones/
earphones and remote control.  A dirty plug
may cause noise or intermittent breaks in the
sound during playback.

• Clean the terminals periodically with a cotton

swab or a soft cloth as illustrated.

If you have any questions or problems
concerning your player, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.  (If a trouble occurred
