Trouble Check

Cause The microphone plug is not connected. � The buckles are not fastened. � The waterproof gasket is not set correctly . � There are scratches or cracks on the waterproof gasket. � The battery pack is run out. � The tape has run out. � The safety tab on the cassette is set to unrecordable position.

Note on the Waterproof Gasket
� Check that there are no scratches or cracks on the waterproof gasket as they may allow water to leak in. If there are scratches or cracks, replace the damaged waterproof gasket with a new one. Do not remove the waterproof gasket with a metal tool or a tool with a sharp point. � Put the waterproof gasket in the grooves evenly, with the tapering side up. Never twist it. (See illustration L) � Remove foreign materials such as dust, sand or hair from the waterproof gasket, the groove and from any surface the gasket touches. If the body is closed with such materials present, these areas may be damaged and water may leak in. � After checking that there are no cracks or dust on the waterproof gasket, coat it slightly with the supplied grease using your finger. This will prevent wearing. While applying the grease, recheck for cracks or dust. Never use cloth or paper for greasing as the fibers may cling. Do not use any type of grease other than that supplied, as it may damage the waterproof gasket. � The useful life of the waterproof gasket depends upon the maintenance and the frequency of use, but we recommend changing it once a year. To replace the waterproof gasket, please consult the nearest Sony dealer. Be sure to check the water leakage after replacing the waterproof gasket.
