I was so happy that the owner's manual was available. It is well written and helped me to use the radio/CD player/recorder without problems. Thanks for making it available.

Thanks so much for the Owner's manual for my Sony PS - FL1. I had purchased the turntable off of eBay. It came in and looked great. Packed well and appeared to be great. I balanced and aligned the tone are and hooked it up. When trying to play a record the tone are would move to the right place and just before it would drop to play it moved back off the edge of the record before touching down. I searched the net for an answer to this issue. No luck. Then I purchased the owners manual and sure enough there was a place to adjust where the stylus touched down. That adjustment solved the problem and saved me a $35 feet to have the player checked out. The manual is well written and easy to understand. It is a must have for anyone with this front loading Sony turntable.
Some years back I pruchased a Sansui G-9000. I had it cleaned up and a problem with the left channel repaired. When I got it back I hooked it up to my tape decks, turn tables, TV and it played great. The only thing I was not really satisfied with was the performance of my Graphic Equalizer. I purchased this owner's manual had poured myself a cup of coffee. The manual is well organized and written in plain language. It also contained the solution to my dissatisfaction. By using the preamp connections coupled I was able to run everything through my graphic equalizer and now enjoy the full potential of my complete system.
An excellent service for the price, however, it would also have been handy if the troubleshooter pages were included. The manual is only sent in the language of your country, thus it looks as though there are some pages missing. Otherwise highly recommended.

External Cleaning
Wash the outer cabinet with warm soapy water. Do NOT use abrasive products. There are sharp edges on the underside of the product so care should be taken when cleaning. Once or twice a year dust the condenser (black grille) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush or vacuum cleaner, as an accumulation of dust will affect the performance of the appliance and cause excessive electricity consumption.
Changing the Light Bulb
Should the light fail to work you can change it as below: Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply. Remove the lamp cover retaining screws, then take the lamp cover off in the direction of arrow and the bulb can be changed. (Type of the bulb: 230 V, 15 W, E 14 thread) After changing bulb replace the lamp cover, and retaining screws and reconnect the appliance to the electricity supply.
Defrosting Your Appliance
The fridge compartment is defrosted automatically, when the motor stops. Defrost water from the cooling plate runs out of the drain and onto a tray on the motor compressor where it evaporates. Droplets of water on the cooling plate during defrosting are quite normal and will freeze on the plate afterwards.
When the appliance is not in use
When the appliance is not in use for long periods disconnect from the electricity supply, empty all of the food and clean the appliance, leaving the door ajar to prevent unpleasant smells.
