Zone Zone is not canceled even if the disc is ejected, and it will be activated when a disc is inserted again. Notes on the lithium battery
Keep the lithium battery out of the reach of children. Should the battery be swallowed, immediately consult a doctor.
Wipe the battery with a dry cloth to assure a good contact.
Be sure to observe the correct polarity when installing the battery.
Do not hold the battery with metallic tweezers, otherwise a short-circuit may occur. WARNING Battery may explode if mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble, or dispose of in fire. Fuse replacement When replacing the fuse, be sure to use one matching the amperage rating stated on the original fuse. If the fuse blows, check the power connection and replace the fuse. If the fuse blows again after replacement, there may be an internal malfunction. In such a case, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

To keep a disc clean, do not touch its surface. Handle the disc by its edge.
Keep your discs in their cases or disc magazines when not in use.
Do not subject discs to heat/high temperature. Avoid leaving them in a parked car or on a dashboard/rear tray.
Do not attach labels, or use discs with sticky ink/residue. Such discs may stop spinning when used, causing a malfunction, or may ruin the disc.
Do not use any discs with labels or stickers attached. The following malfunctions may result from using such discs:
Inability to eject a disc (due to a label or sticker peeling off and jamming the eject mechanism). Inability to read audio data correctly (e.g., playback skipping, or no playback) due to heat shrinking of a sticker or label causing a disc to warp.
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.
You cannot play 8 cm (3 1/4 in) discs.
Before playing, clean the discs with a commercially available cleaning cloth. Wipe each disc from the centre out. Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, or antistatic spray intended for analog discs. 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. MP3, which stands for MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3, is a music file compression format standard. It compresses audio CD data to approximately 1/10 of its original size.
The unit is compatible with the following standards. For CD ISO 9660 level 1/level 2 format, Joliet/Romeo in the expansion format Multi Session For DVD UDF Bridge format (combined UDF and ISO 9660) For CD/DVD ID3 tag version 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4
The maximum number of:
folders (albums): 256 (including root and empty folders). MP3 files (tracks) and folders contained in a disc: 1,000 (if a folder/file names contain many characters, this number may become less than 1,000). displayable characters for a folder/file name is 128; ID3 tag is 126 characters. Notes
Be sure to finalize the disc before using on the unit.
When naming an MP3 file, be sure to add the file expansion .mp3 to the file name.
If you play a high-bit-rate MP3, such as 320 kbps, sound may be intermittent.
During playback of a VBR (variable bit rate) MP3 file or fast-forward/reverse, elapsed playing time may not display accurately.
When the disc is recorded in Multi Session, only the first track of the first session format is recognized and played (any other format is skipped). The priority of the format is CD-DA and MP3. When the first track is a CD-DA, only CD-DA of the first session is played. When the first track is not a CD-DA or MP3 session is played. If the disc has no data in any of these formats, NO MUSIC is displayed.
The unit cannot play back Multi Border recorded MP3.
MP3 files not recorded at 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz sampling rate and 64 to 320 kbps bit rate cannot be played. Note on wireless transmission The unit transmits audio/video at FM 2.4 GHz. Simultaneous use with other 2.4 GHz equipment may cause image interference or audio noise. This is not a malfunction, but a result of equipment sharing the same operating frequency. 41 MEX-R5 2-581-681-41 (1) 01US02CD-U.fm masterpage:Left 00US+00cov-U.book Page 42 Friday, May 27, 2005 9:58 AM Specifications AUDIO POWER SPECIFICATIONS POWER OUTPUT AND TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION 23.2 watts per channel minimum continuous average power into 4 ohms, 4 channels driven from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with no more than 5% total harmonic distortion.

The data capacity of a single-layer and single-
sided DVD is 4.7 GB (Giga Byte), which is 7 times that of a CD. The data capacity of a double-layer and single-sided DVD is 8.5 GB, a single-layer and double-sided DVD is 9.4 GB, and double-layer and double-sided DVD is 17 GB. The picture data uses the MPEG 2 format, one of the worldwide standards of digital compression technology. The picture data is compressed to about 1/40 (average) of its original size. The DVD also uses a variable rate coding technology that changes the data to be allocated according to the status of the picture.
