This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

The nameplate indicating operating voltage, power
consumption, etc., is located on the rear exterior.
• Before operating the system, be sure that the operating

voltage of the system is identical with that of your local
power supply.

U.S.A./Canada

120 V AC, 60 Hz

Other countries

100 – 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz

• Use only the supplied AC power adaptor.
• After operating the system with the AC power adaptor,

disconnect the AC power adaptor from the wall outlet if
the system is not to be used for an extended period of time.
Just switching the POWER switch to STANDBY does not
turn the AC power adaptor off.

• Do not open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified

personnel only.

• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the system, have

the system checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.

• Although this system is magnetically shielded, do not

leave recorded tapes, watches, personal credit cards, or
floppy disks with magnetic coding in front of the system
for an extended period of time.

Although this system is magnetically shielded, there may be
cases that the picture on some TV sets/personal computer
sets may become magnetically distorted. In such a case, turn
off the power of the TV set/personal computer set once, and
after 15 to 30 minutes turn it on again. For the personal
computer set, take the appropriate measures such as data
storage before turning it off.
When there seems to be no improvement, locate the system
further away from the TV set/personal computer set.
Furthermore, be sure not to place objects in which magnets are
attached or used near the TV set/personal computer set, such as
audio racks, TV stands, toys etc. These may cause magnetic
distortion to the picture due to their interaction with the system.

• Do not set the speaker in an inclined position.
• Do not leave the system in a location near heat sources, or

in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust,
moisture, rain or mechanical shock.

Do not use alcohol, benzine, or thinner to clean the cabinet.

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

(See fig. B)

When the batteries are weak, the POWER/CHARGE
indicator will start flickering and become faint, or the
playback sound will become distorted or unstable. In such a
case, replace all the batteries with new ones.

Installing the attachment according to the Walkman
you are using
Use the dedicated attachment for either NW-A1000 or
NW-A3000 series. The corresponding model number is
marked on the rear of the attachment. Exchange attachments,
as shown.

(See fig. E)

When the system is connected to the monaural jack
of a radio, etc., the sound may not come through the right
speaker. In such a case, use the optional* plug adaptor PC-
234S or PC-236MS.

Use the optional* plug adaptor PC-234S/PC-236MS or
connecting cord RK-G136/RK-G138.

* The above optional accessories are not provided in some areas.

Notes
• NW-A1000/A3000 series use the multiple connector (Walkman

connection).

• Do not carry the speaker with a Walkman set on the multiple

connector, as malfunction may result.

(See fig. F)

Adjust VOLUME to minimum to avoid any sudden loud
sounds that may hurt your ears and set the volume of the
connected device to a moderate level.

• When a USB cable is connected between the speaker

and a personal computer, no sound will be heard from
a Walkman set on the multiple connector, as data
transfer mode takes place. Sound from the device
connected to INPUT will be heard instead.

The POWER/CHARGE indicator lights up.

Adjust VOLUME accordingly.
• When both a Walkman set on the multiple connector

and a device connected to INPUT are used, both
sounds can be heard. Control on/off on the connected
device itself.

The POWER/CHARGE indicator goes off.

Notes
• If connecting the speaker to a device with built-in a radio or

tuner, radio reception may not occur or sensitivity may be
reduced significantly.

• Release the bass boost function of the connected Walkman, etc.,

to avoid distortion.

• The USB cable connecting the speaker with personal computer

is used for transferring Walkman’s data and recharging. When
playing back sound of a personal computer using the speaker,
connect through the INPUT.

• If the connected device’s headphone output has a line switch,

better sound will be heard if it is set to on. See the operating
instructions of the connected device.

A Walkman set on the multiple connector can be recharged
by either the AC power adaptor (supplied), or by using a USB
cable (supplied with the Walkman) connected to a computer.

Notes
• See the Operation Guide of the Walkman for details on

recharging and its related settings.

• When the POWER switch is set to STANDBY, the POWER/

CHARGE indicator lights up red while recharging. When the
LIGHT switch is set to ON, the bottom of the speaker will be
illuminated. After completing recharging, the POWER/
CHARGE indicator and the illumination go off.

• Data transfer and recharging cannot be performed

simultaneously.

• Playback and recharging can be done at the same time.

Recharging time will be longer during playback.

• Charging time varies depending on use of the AC power adaptor

or USB cable. For details, see the Operation Guide of the
Walkman.

Set the LIGHT switch to ON.
While charging the Walkman or when the POWER switch is
set to ON, the bottom of the speaker is illuminated.
At higher volumes, illumination may flicker. This is not a
malfunction, but should it bother you, you may turn off the
illumination.

By connecting a USB cable (supplied with the Walkman) to a
computer, you can transfer data to it from the Walkman set on
the multiple connector. For details, see the Operation Guide
of the Walkman.
