Additional Information
Compatible devices
Compatible USB devices
Compatibility requirements for the USB devices are
as follows. Before using a device with this unit,
check that it meets the requirements.
Compliance with USB 2.0 (Full Speed)
Supports Mass Storage mode*
* Mass Storage mode is a mode that allows a USB device
to become accessible to a host device, enabling file
transfers. Most USB devices support Mass Storage
mode.
Notes on the USB device
When a USB device is connected, the unit reads all the
files on the device. If there are many folders or files on the
device, it may take a long time for the unit to finish
reading them.
Do not connect a USB device to the unit through a USB
hub.
With some connected USB devices, after an operation is
performed, there may be a delay before it is performed by
this unit.
This unit may not support all the functions provided with
a connected USB device.
The playback order on this unit may differ from the
playback order on a connected USB device.
Compatible BLUETOOTH devices
Compatibility requirements for the devices are as
follows. Before using a device with this unit, check
that it meets the requirements.
Devices must conform to BLUETOOTH Standard
version 2.1 + EDR.
Devices must support A2DP (Advanced Audio
Distribution Profile) and AVRCP (Audio/Video
Remote Control Profile).
NFC capability (required only when using the NFC
pairing function of the unit).
What is BLUETOOTH wireless
technology?
BLUETOOTH wireless technology is a short-range
wireless technology that enables wireless data
communication between digital devices, such as a
computer and digital camera. BLUETOOTH wireless
technology operates within a range of about 10 m
(33 feet).
Connecting two devices as necessary is common,
but some devices can be connected to multiple
devices at the same time.
You do not need to use a cable for connection, nor is
it necessary for the devices to face one another,
such is the case with infrared technology. For
example, you can use such a device in a bag or
pocket.
BLUETOOTH standard is an international standard
supported by thousands of companies all over the
world, and employed by various companies
worldwide.
Maximum communication range
Maximum communication range may shorten under
the following conditions.
There is an obstacle such as a person, metal, or
wall between the unit and BLUETOOTH device.
A wireless LAN device is in use near the unit.
A microwave oven is in use near the unit.
A device that generates electromagnetic radiation
is in use near the unit.
The unit is placed on a shelf made of steel.

Interference from other devices
Because BLUETOOTH devices and wireless LAN
(IEEE802.11b/g/n) use the same frequency,
microwave interference may occur and resulting in
communication speed deterioration, noise, or invalid
connection if the unit is used near a wireless LAN
device. In such a case, perform the following.
Use the unit at least 10 m (33 feet) away from the
wireless LAN device.
If the unit is used within 10 m (33 feet) of a
wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless LAN
device.
Use the BLUETOOTH device as close to the unit as
possible.
Interference to other devices
Microwaves emitting from a BLUETOOTH device may
affect the operation of electronic medical devices.
Turn off the unit and other BLUETOOTH devices in
the following locations, as it may cause an accident.
where inflammable gas is present, in a hospital,
train, airplane, or a gas station
near automatic doors or a fire alarm
Notes
To be able to use the BLUETOOTH function, the
BLUETOOTH device to be connected requires the same
profile as the unit’s.
Note also that even if the same profile exists, devices may
vary in function depending on their specifications.
Due to the characteristic of BLUETOOTH wireless
technology, the sound played on the unit is slightly
delayed from the sound played on the BLUETOOTH device
during listening to the music.
This unit supports security capabilities that comply with
the BLUETOOTH standard to provide a secure connection
when the BLUETOOTH wireless technology is used, but
security may not be enough depending on the setting. Be
careful when communicating using BLUETOOTH wireless
technology.
We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of
information during BLUETOOTH communication.
A device featuring the BLUETOOTH function is required to
conform to the BLUETOOTH standard specified by
Bluetooth SIG, and be authenticated. Even if the
connected device conforms to the above mentioned
BLUETOOTH standard, some devices may not be
connected or work correctly, depending on the features or
specifications of the device.
Noise or sound skips may occur depending on the
BLUETOOTH device connected with the unit, the
communication environment or the usage environment.
Precautions
Discs that this unit CAN play
Audio CD (CD-DA*
1
tracks)
CD-R/CD-RW that contains MP3/WMA files and
is finalized*
2
correctly.
*1
CD-DA is the abbreviation for Compact Disc Digital Audio.
It is a recording standard used for audio CDs.
*2
Finalizing is the process to make the CD-R/CD-RW discs
playable on the consumer disc player products, and the
finalizing can be enabled or disabled as optional settings
during disc creation in most recording software.
Discs that this unit CANNOT play
CD-R/CD-RW other than those recorded in audio
CD format or formats conforming to ISO 9660
Level 1/Level 2 or Joliet
CD-R/CD-RW of poor recording quality, CD-R/
CD-RW with scratches or that is dirty, or CD-R/
CD-RW recorded using an incompatible recording
device
CD-R/CD-RW that is unfinalized or finalized
incorrectly
Notes on discs
Clean the CD with a cleaning cloth if
the disc is dirty. Wipe the disc from
the center out. If there are scratches,
dirt or fingerprints on the disc, a
tracking error may occur.
Do not use solvents such as
benzine, thinner, commercially
available cleaners or anti-static
spray intended for vinyl LPs.
Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight or heat
sources such as hot air ducts, or leave it in a car
parked in direct sunlight as there can be a
considerable rise in temperature inside the car.
Do not stick paper or a sticker on the CD, or
scratch the surface of the CD.
After playing, store the CD in its case.
Note on DualDiscs
A DualDisc is a two sided disc product which
mates DVD recorded material on one side with
digital audio material on the other side. However,
since the audio material side does not conform to
the Compact Disc (CD) standard, playback on this
product is not guaranteed.
Music discs encoded with copyright
protection technologies
This product is designed to playback discs that
conform to the Compact Disc (CD) standard.
Recently, various music discs encoded with
copyright protection technologies are marketed
by some record companies. Please be aware that
among those discs, there are some that do not
conform to the CD standard and may not be
playable by this product.
On safety
As the laser beam used in the CD player section is
harmful to eyes, do not attempt to disassemble
the casing. Refer servicing to qualified personnel
only.
Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit, and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
Discs with non-standard shapes (e.g., heart,
square, star) cannot be played on this unit.
Attempting to do so may damage the unit. Do not
use such discs.
On power sources
For AC operation, use the supplied AC power cord;
do not use any other cord.
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to
be used for an extended period of time.
When not using the batteries, remove them to
avoid damage that can be caused by battery
leakage or corrosion.
On placement
To avoid malfunction, do not leave the unit under
the following conditions.

On operation
If the unit 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 CD
player section. Should this occur, the unit will not
operate properly. In this case, remove the CD and
wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.
On handling the unit
Do not leave the CD compartment open to avoid
dust and debris contamination.
On cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls using 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.
If you have any questions or problems concerning
your unit, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
