Notes on battery
Incorrect battery usage may lead to leakage of 
battery fluid or bursting battery. To prevent 
such accidents, observe the following 
precautions:
• Install the + and – poles of the battery 
correctly.
• Do not try to recharge dry battery.
• When the recorder is not to be used for a long 
time, be sure to remove the battery.
• If a battery leak should develop, carefully and 
thoroughly wipe away battery fluid from the 
battery compartment before inserting new 
ones.
Note on mechanical noise
The recorder gives off mechanical noise while 
operating, which is caused by the power-saving 
system of the recorder and it is not a problem.
To protect a recorded MD
To record-protect an MD, slide open the tab at 
the side of the MD. In this position, the MD 
cannot be recorded or edited. To record again, 
slide the tab back so the tab is visible.
Note on digital recording
This recorder uses the Serial Copy 
Management System, which allows only first-
generation digital copies to be made from 
premastered software. You can only make 
copies from a home-recorded MD by using the 
analog connections.
If you have any questions or problems 
concerning your recorder, please consult your 
nearest Sony dealer. (If a trouble occurred when 
the disc was in the recorder, we recommend that 
the disc be left in the recorder when you consult 
your Sony dealer so that the cause of trouble 
may be better understood.)
