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.

Setting the SLEEP Timer
(Using the Remote Control) Use the Sleep Timer to turn the System off after a certain number of minutes when it is playing. By setting the Sleep Timer, you can fall asleep to music and know that your System will turn off by itself rather than play all night. s You can only set the Sleep Timer when the System is on and a source is playing.

� Each time you press the SLEEP button, it changes the number of minutes shown on the display in this sequence: 10 = 20 = 30 = 60 = 90 = 120 = Cancelled = (back to the beginning)
The selected number of minutes for the Sleep Timer will stop blinking five seconds later and the display returns to the original one before setting the Sleep Timer. (The display is dimmed.) The System is now set to turn off after the number of minutes you set. To Confirm the Sleep Time: When the SLEEP button is pressed, the remaining sleep time is displayed. Wait until the display returns to the original display. To Cancel the SLEEP Timer Setting: Press the SLEEP button until the �SLEEP� indicator goes out on the display.
