Sony MHC-GT111 Manual Do Utilizador

• The unit is not disconnected from the mains as 

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

• Completely disconnect the power cord (mains 

lead) from the wall socket (mains) if it is not 
going to be used for an extended period of 
time. When unplugging the unit, always grip 
the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

• Should any solid object or liquid get into the 

system, unplug the system, and have it 
checked by qualified personnel before 
operating it again.

• AC power cord must be changed only at the 

qualified service shop.

• Do not place the system in an inclined 

position or in locations that are extremely hot, 
cold, dusty, dirty, or humid or lacking 
adequate ventilation, or subject to vibration, 
direct sunlight or a bright light.

• Be careful when placing the unit or speakers 

on surfaces that have been specially treated 
(for example, with wax, oil, polish) as staining 
or discoloration of the surface may result.

• 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 unit, and cause the system to 
malfunction. In this situation, remove the 
disc, and leave the system turned on for about 
an hour until the moisture evaporates.

• Heat buildup on the unit during operation is 

normal and is not a cause for alarm.

• Do not touch the cabinet if it has been used 

continuously at a high volume because the 
cabinet may have become hot.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

This speaker system is not magnetically 
shielded, and the picture on nearby TV sets may 
become magnetically distorted. In this situation, 
turn off the TV, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and turn 
it back on. If there is no improvement, move the 
speakers far away from the TV.

Clean this system with a soft cloth slightly 
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do 
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring 
powder, or solvent, such as thinner, benzine, or 
alcohol.

Break off the tape’s overwrite protection tab 
from side A or B as illustrated.

To later reuse the tape for recording, cover the 
broken tab with adhesive tape.

The use of the tape with more than 90 minutes 
of play time is not recommended except for 
long, continuous recording or playback.

Use a dry- or wet-type cleaning tape (available 
separately) after every 10 hours of use, before 
you start an important recording, or after 
playing an old tape. Failure to clean the tape 
heads can cause degraded sound quality or an 
inability of the unit to record or play tapes. For 
details, refer to the instructions of the cleaning 
tape.

Use a demagnetizing tape (available separately) 
after every 20 to 30 hours of use. Failure to 
demagnetize the tape heads can cause an 
increase in noise, a loss of high frequency 
sound, and an inability to completely erase 
tapes. For details, refer to the instructions of the 
demagnetizing tape.
