SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!
COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0 OR DOTTED
LINE WITH MARK 0 ON 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 PUB-
LISHED BY SONY.
Features
- Small body almost the size of a MiniDisc
jacket
Ideal weight and size; fits in your shirt
pocket.
-Personalized sound through Digital
Sound Preset functions
You can store two sets of sound quality
adjustments (made during playback) to
two switches.
- Low power-consumption design enables
extended battery life.
- Simple One-Touch Eject function for
easy MiniDisc handling
A single press of the OPEN button causes
the player lid to open and the MiniDisc to
eject.
- Easy-to-operate headphones remote
control with backlit LCD
The LCD displays disc and track
information, playback mode as well as
battery condition. Keep the main unit in
your pocket and operate the MiniDisc
player through the slim stick remote
control.
- Shock-resistant memory offsets up to 40
seconds of o
ptical read errors.

NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down because of the potential difference generated
by the charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human
body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
Never look into the laser diode emission from right above when
checking it for adjustment. It is feared that you will lose your sight.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP BLOCK
(LCX-2E)
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electro-
static break-down easily. When handling it, perform soldering
bridge to the laser-tap on the flexible board. Also perform mea-
sures against electrostatic break-down sufficiently before the op-
eration. The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled
with care.

SERVICING NOTES
- When repairing this set with the power on, if you remove the
upper panel assy, this set stops working.
In this case, you can work without the set stopping by fastening
the hook of the open/close detect switch (SW board (S809))
with tape.
- This set is designed to perform automatic adjustment for each
adjustment and write its value to EEPROM. Therefore, when
EEPROM (IC802) has been replaced in service, be sure to per-
form automatic adjustment and write resultant values to the new
EEPROM.
After EEPROM (IC802) is replaced, digital sound preset set-
ting value for display is changed to 00. Please make sure to
check that digital sound preset setting value for display is 01.
(Refer to page 14)
- Replacement of CXD2661GA-2 (IC601) and CXR701080-
010GA (IC801) used in this set requires a special tool. There-
fore, they cannot be replaced.

Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
- Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 ËšC dur-
ing repairing.
- Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
- Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
Notes on chip component replacement
- Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
- Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat. CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.
