WARNING!!
WHEN SERVICING, DO NOT APPROACH THE LASER
EXIT WITH THE EYE TOO CLOSELY. IN CASE IT IS
NECESSARY TO CONFIRM LASER BEAM EMISSION,
BE SURE TO OBSERVE FROM A DISTANCE OF
MORE THAN 25 cm FROM THE SURFACE OF THE
OBJECTIVE LENS ON THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.
SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0OR DOTTED LINE
WITH MARK 0ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND IN
THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE OPERATION.
REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH SONY PARTS WHOSE
PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS SHOWN IN THIS MANUAL
OR IN SUPPLEMENTS PUBLISHED BY SONY.
1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-sol-
dered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder
splashes and bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are
“pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transis-
tors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them
out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
CAUTION:
The use of optical instrument with this product will increase eye
hazard.
Unleaded solder
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size.)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
•Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40°C higher than
ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350°C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
•Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than
ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur
such as on IC pins, etc.
•Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recom-
mend their replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
MARKING is located on the bottom of the unit.
This CD/DVD player is a CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT.
This label is located on the bottom of the unit.

Precautions
Road safety
Do not use the monitor unit and headphones
while driving, cycling, or operating any
motorized vehicle. Doing so may create a
traffic hazard and is illegal in some areas. It
can also be potentially dangerous to play your
headsets at high volume while walking,
especially at pedestrian crossings. You
should exercise extreme caution or
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations.
On safety
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the
cabinet, unplug the player and have it
checked by qualified personnel before
operating it any further.
On power sources
•The player is not disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
player itself has been turned off.
•If you are not going to use the player for a
long time, be sure to disconnect the player
from the wall outlet. To disconnect the AC
power cord (mains lead), grasp the plug
itself; never pull the cord.
•Do not touch the mains lead or the AC
adaptor with wet hands. Doing so may
cause shock hazard.
On temperature increases
Heat may build up inside the player during
charging or if it is being used for a long time.
This is not a malfunction.
On placement
•Place the player in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the
player.
•Do not place the player on a soft surface
such as a rug that might block the
ventilation holes.
•Do not place the player in a confined space
such as a bookshelf or similar unit.
•To reduce the risk of fire, do not cover the
ventilation of the apparatus with
newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
•Do not place the player in a location near
heat sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust, sand, moisture,
rain, or mechanical shock, or in a car with
its windows closed.
On operation
•If the player is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, or is placed in a very
damp room, moisture may condense on the
lenses inside the player. Should this occur,
the player may not operate properly. In this
case, remove the disc and leave the player
turned on for about half an hour until the
moisture evaporates.
•When you move the player, take out any
discs. If you don’t, the disc may be
damaged.
•Keep the lens on the player clean and do not
touch it. Touching the lens may damage the
lens and cause the player to malfunction.
Leave the disc lid closed except when you
insert or remove discs.
On Liquid Crystal Display
•Although manufactured with high precision
technology, the LCD may occasionally
display dots of various colours. That is not a
malfunction.
•Do not wipe the LCD surface with wet
cloth. If water enters, a malfunction may
result.
•Do not place or drop any object onto the
LCD surface. Also, do not apply pressure
from hands or elbows.
•If the player is brought directly from a cold
to a warm location, moisture may condense
over the LCD surface. In which case, wipe
out the moisture with tissue paper, etc.,
before use.
However, moisture condensation will
continue if the LCD surface is cold. Wait
until the surface warms to room
temperature.
On AC adaptor
•Use the supplied AC adaptor for this player,
as other adaptors may cause a malfunction.
Install this system so that the mains lead can
be unplugged from the wall socket
immediately in the event of trouble.
,continued 4
•Do not confine the AC adaptor in a closed
place such as a bookshelf or an AV cabinet.
•Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
traveler’s electric transformer, which may
generate heat and cause a malfunction.
On battery pack
•Certain countries may regulate disposal of
the battery used to power this product.
Please consult with your local authority.
•Because of the battery’s limited life, its
capacity gradually deteriorates over time
and repeated use. Purchase a new one when
the battery holds about only half the normal
period.
•The battery may not be charged to its fullest
capacity when charged for the first time, or
when it has not been used for a long time.
The capacity recovers after being charged
and discharged several times.
•Do not leave the battery pack in a car or
direct sunlight, where temperature goes up
above 60 ºC.
•Do not expose to water.
•Avoid short-circuiting the battery
connecting jacks (A) located on the bottom
of the player and the connecting jacks (C)
on the battery pack with metal objects such
as a necklace.
•Make sure dust or sand does not enter the
battery connecting jacks (A) and the guide
holes (B) located on the bottom of the
player, and the connecting jacks (C) and the
guide holes (D) on the battery pack.
On car adapter
•Use the supplied car adaptor for this player,
as other adaptors may cause a malfunction.
•Do not dissemble or reverse-engineer.
•Do not drop or apply shock.
•Do not touch the metal parts, as it may
cause a short and damage the car adaptor,
especially if touched by other metal objects.
•Do not place the car adaptor in a location
near heat sources, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight or mechanical shock, or in a
car with its windows closed.
On adjusting volume
Do not turn up the volume while listening to
a section with very low level inputs or no
audio signals. If you do, the speakers may be
damaged when a peak level section is played.
On headphones
•Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones at high volumes.
Hearing experts advice against continuous,
loud, and extended play. If you experience a
ringing in your ears, reduce the volume or
discontinue use.
•Showing consideration for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This
will allow you to hear outside sounds and still
be considerate to the people around you.
On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls 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 alcohol or benzine.
On cleaning discs, disc/lens cleaners
Do not use cleaning discs or disc/lens
cleaners (including wet or spray types).
These may cause the apparatus to
malfunction.
If you have any questions or problems
concerning your player, please consult your
nearest Sony dealer.
