Notes on VOR (Voice Operated Recording)
• The VOR system is affected by the environmental recording conditions.
When you use the system in a noisy place, the unit will stay in the
recording mode. If the sound is too soft, on the contrary, the unit will
not start recording. If you cannot get the results you want, set it to OFF.
• The VOR system may not record the beginning of the sound you want
to record because it starts recording only after it catches the sound. For
an important recording, set it to OFF.
Notes
• The unit will play back normally for a while, even after the E lamp
flashes. However, replace the batteries as soon as you can. Otherwise,
the built-in speaker may emit a loud noise and recordings may not be
made correctly.
• In the following cases you do not need to replace the batteries:
– if the E lamp flashes with the playback sound when you turn up the
volume.
– if the E lamp lights momentarily when the tape starts running or at
the end of the tape.
– if the E lamp flashes during FF/ REW or CUE/ REVIEW.

To m o n it o r t h e so u n d
Connect an earphone (not supplied) to the EAR jack. The
monitor volume cannot be adjusted by VOL.
• Do not leave the unit in a location near heat sources, or in a
place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical
shock.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the unit, remove the
batteries or disconnect the AC power adaptor, and have the
unit checked by qualified personnel before operating it any
further.
• Keep personal credit cards using magnetic coding or spring-
wound watches, etc. away from the unit to prevent possible
damage from the magnet used for the speaker.
• When you do not use the unit for long, remove the batteries to
avoid damage caused by battery leakage and subsequent
corrosion.
• If the unit has not been used for long, set it in the playback
mode and warm it up for a few minutes before inserting a
cassette.

Note
The battery life may be shorter depending on the operating condition, the
surrounding temperature and battery type.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your unit,
please consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Notes
• When you are going to record something that you may not have an
opportunity to record again, test the unit first before you actually start
recording.
• When recording with an external microphone, the VOR system may not
work properly because of the difference in sensitivity.
For maximum performance we recommend that you use
alkaline batteries.
