Sony cmt-sd1 User Manual

This speaker system is magnetically shielded and
can be used near TV sets. However, the picture on
certain TV sets may become magnetically
distorted.In such a case, turn off the power of the TV
set once, and after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on again.
If there seems to be no improvement, locate the
speaker system further away from the TV set. Also,
be sure not to place objects in which magnets are
attached or used near the TV set, such as audio
racks, TV stands and toys. These may cause
magnetic distortion to the picture due to their
interaction with the system.

• Do not use a CD with tape, stickers, or paste on it

as this may damage the player.

• Before playing, clean the CD with a cleaning cloth.

Wipe the CD from the center out. Do not use
solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for
vinyl LPs.

• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat

sources such as hot air ducts, nor leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight.

Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild
detergent solution.

• The system is not disconnected from the mains as

long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if
the system itself has been turned off.

• Unplug the system from the wall outlet if it is not

to be used for an extended period of time. To
disconnect the mains lead, pull it out by the plug.
Never pull the cord itself.

• 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.

• The mains lead must be changed only at a

qualified service shop.

• When you connect the mains lead to mains, even

though the power is off, the system begins
charging for remote and timer functions.
Therefore the surface of this unit becomes warm,
this is normal.

• The nameplate indicating operating voltage,

power consumption, etc. is located at the bottom.

• Make sure the system fan is on during use.

Place the system in a location with adequate air
circulation, and do not place anything on the
system.

• Place the system in a location with adequate

ventilation to prevent heat build up.

• Do not place the system in an inclined position.
• Do not place the system in locations where it is;

– Extremely hot or cold
– Dusty or dirty
– Very humid
– Subject to vibrations
– Subject to direct sunlight.

When you move the system, remove the CD.

• 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 CD and leave the
system turned on for about 2 hours until the
moisture evaporates.

• When you move the system, take out any discs.

If you have any questions or problems concerning
your system, please consult your nearest Sony
dealer.
