personnel before operating it any further.
· Do not put any foreign objects in the DC IN 4.5 V
(external power input) jack.
On power sources
When you are not using the CD player for a long time,
disconnect all power sources from the CD player.
On AC power adaptor
· Use only the supplied AC power adaptor. If your CD
player is not supplied with the one, use the optional
AC-E45HG AC power adaptor. Do not use any other
AC power adaptor. It may cause a malfunction.
Polarity of the plug
· Do not touch the AC power adaptor with wet hands.
· Connect the AC power adaptor to an easily accessible
AC outlet. Should you notice an abnormality in the AC
power adaptor, disconnect it from the AC outlet
immediately.
On rechargeable batteries and
dry batteries
· Do not charge the dry batteries.
· Do not throw the batteries into fire.
· Do not carry the batteries with coins or other metallic
objects. It can generate heat if the positive and negative
terminals of the battery are accidentally contacted by a
metallic object.

· Do not mix new batteries with old ones.
· Do not use different types of batteries together.
· When the batteries are not to be used for a long time,
remove them from the CD player.
· If battery leakage occurs, wipe off any deposit in the
battery compartment, and install new batteries. In case
the deposit adheres to you, wash it off thoroughly.
Notes on the rechargeable batteries
· To keep the original battery capacity for a long time,
charge the batteries only when they are completely
depleted.
· If the battery is new or has not been used for a long
time, it may not be charged completely until you charge
and discharge it several times.
· If the rechargeable batteries and the metallic objects get
contacted, heat or fire may occur due to a short circuit.
When to replace the rechargeable batteries
If the battery life becomes shorter by about half, replace
the batteries with new rechargeable batteries.
On the CD player
· Keep the lens on the CD player clean and do not touch
it. If you do so, the lens may be damaged and the CD
player will not operate properly.
· Do not put any heavy object on top of the CD player.
The CD player and the CD may be damaged.
· Do not leave the CD player in a location near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or sand, moisture, rain, mechanical
shock, unleveled surface, or in a car with its windows
closed.
· If the CD player causes interference to the radio or
television reception, turn off the CD player or move it
away from the radio or television.
· Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart, square, star)
cannot be played on this CD player. Attempting to do so
may damage the CD player. Do not use such discs.
Note on moisture condensation
If the CD player is suddenly moved from a cold place to a
warm place, it may result in moisture condensation on the
pickup lens and malfunction or playback difficulties.
Should this occur, leave the CD player for a few hours,
then try playback again.
On headphones
Road safety
Do not use headphones while driving, cycling, or
operating any motorized vehicle. It 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.
Preventing hearing damage
Avoid using headphones at high volume. Hearing experts
advise against continuous, loud and extended play. If you
experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or
discontinue use.
Consideration for others
Keep the volume at a moderate level. This will allow you
to hear outside sounds and to be considerate to the people
around you.
Do not immerse in water
This product is not meant to be immersed in water or
come in continuous contact with water.
· Before turning the OPEN/LOCK knob to open the lid,
be sure to wipe off water, dust or sand on the exterior of
the CD player. Open and close the lid where water or
sand cannot fall in the CD player, and make sure that
your hands are dry. If water or sand falls in the CD
player, trouble may occur.
· When closing the lid, check that there is no dust or sand
on the rubber packing around the lid. Then close the lid
firmly and lock it by turning the OPEN/LOCK knob.
· If the CD player is splashed with salt water, wipe clean
with a damp cloth, then dry with a soft dry cloth. Do not
wash under running water; do not use soap or detergent;
or do not dry with an electric hair dryer.
· The supplied headphones are not meant to be immersed
in water or come in continuous contact with water. If
they are accidentally dropped into water or get wet, dry
them with a soft cloth. Never use an electric hair dryer.
· The supplied or optional AC power adaptor is not water
resistant. To prevent shock hazard, avoid using the CD
player near water during AC operation.
· Cover the DC IN 4.5 V jack and
\ jack with the
attached rubber caps when nothing is connected to these
jacks. If the inside of the jacks are contaminated with
water or sand, rust may develop and cause trouble.
Note
Since the CD player is airtight, you may not be able to
open the lid when there is a sudden change in air pressure
inside the CD player. This happens when the CD player is
transported on a plane or moved from a warm place to a
cold place. In this case, open the rubber cap on the DC IN
4.5 V jack.
Maintenance
To clean the casing
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened in water or a mild
detergent solution. Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner.
To clean the plugs
If the plugs become dirty, there is no sound or noise is
heard. Clean them with a dry soft cloth periodically.
To remove dust or sand from the rubber
packing
Any sand or dust on the rubber packing will prevent the
lid from shutting tightly, and water may leak in. Brush off
the dust once in a while.
We recommend the replacement of the rubber packing
every year which is available optionally at an authorized
Sony service facility.
