Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.
This manual is immaculate in it's accuracy. Everything is written very clearly and easy to understand. Written by a professional who wants to convey a clear and easy to understand message!!

NOTE: When setting the time of day with the selector knob in the 'Time Setting' position only, this will activate the timer for seven seconds after selection. This means that when setting the time of day in this function the time can only be set by using the right hand knob within a seven second period. After seven seconds have elapsed from when the correct time of day has been set, the timer ceases to be active and subsequent operation of the right hand knob will not change the time setting.
11. CHECKING THE MAIN OVEN
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Set the clock as described above, the clock is now ready for manual operation. Turn the oven thermostat knob to Mk 9 and press the ignition button. As soon as the burner is alight the button can be released. There should now be a low gas rate to the burner, which is the F.S.D. by pass rate. When the F.S.D. phial has heated up it opens the F.S.D. valve which allows the main gas supply to the oven burner. After 1 minute check that the flame covers the full width of the burner and is stable. Set the oven control to Mk 2, close the oven door and check that after about 10 minutes the flame size has reduced. Turn off the control and check that the oven flames go out.
12. CHECKING THE SECOND OVEN
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Turn the second oven thermostat control knob anticlockwise to Mk8 and press the ignition button. As soon as the burner is alight the button can be released. When the oven burner lights up there should be a low gas rate at first to the oven burner which is the F.S.D. by-pass rate. When the F.S.D. phial has heated up it opens the F.S.D. valve and the main gas stream flows to the burner. After 1 minute check that the flame covers the full width of the burner and is stable. Set the oven control to Mk. 2, close the oven door and check that after approx. 10 minutes the flame size has reduced. Turn off the control knob and check that the oven flames go out.
