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.

Cleaning and Maintenance
General Cleaning
Before carrying out any cleaning or manteinance work, always disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply, and allow it to cool down. When using spray cleaning products, be careful not to spread them on the heating elements or on the thermostat sensor. Never use harsh abrasives, steel wool or cleaners with bleach, as they could damage the enamel and the oven door glass.

The Oven Cavity
The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. It is advisable to wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. However, from time to time, it will be necessary to do a more complete cleaning, using a proper oven cleaner. In case of particularly tough stains, you can use stainless steel cleaning products or some warm vinegar. If cooking fruits, some over-heated natual acids can squeeze and settle on the oven enamel, causing stains quite difficult to remove. This could affect the enamel brightness, but it will have no consequence on the oven performances. To avoid these stains to be burnt out during the next cooking, carefully clean the oven cavity after all fruits cookings.
The Oven Door and its gasket
Before cleaning the oven door, we recommend you to remove it from the oven. Proceed as follows: 1) open the oven door completely; 2) find the hinges linking the door to the oven (Fig. 10); 3) unlock and turn the small levers located on the two hinges (Fig. 11); 4) handle the door by its left- and right-hand sides, then slowly turn it towards the oven until it is half-closed (Fig. 12); 5) gently pull the oven door off its site (Fig. 12); 6) place it on a steady plan. Clean the oven door glass with warm water and a softh cloth only. Once the cleaning is carried out, refit the oven door, following the procedure in reverse. The correct operation of the oven is ensured by a gasket placed round the edge of the oven cavity. � Periodically check the condition of this gasket. If necessary, clean it without using abrasive cleaning products. If the gasket shows to be damaged, call you local Service Centre. Do not use the oven until it has been repaired.
