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.

Electrical connection
The appliance is designed to be connected to 230 V monophase electricity supply. The connection must be carried out in compliance with the laws and regulations in force. Before the appliance is connected: 1) check that the main fuse and the domestic installation can support the load (see the rating label); 2) check that the power supply is properly earthed in compliance with the current rules; 3) check the socket or the double pole switch used for the electrical connection can be easily reached with the appliance built in the forniture unit. The appliance is supplied with a connection cable. This has to be provided with a proper plug, able to support the load marked on the identification plate. To connect the plug to the cable, follow the recommendation given in Fig. 3. The plug has to be fitted in a proper socket. If connecting the appliance directly to the electric system, it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply, with a minimum gap of 3 mm. between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current rules. The connection cable has to be placed in order that, in each part, it cannot reach a temperature 90 °C higher than the room temperature. The brown coloured phase cable (fitted in the terminal block contact marked with "L") must always be connected to the network phase.

Replacement of the voltage cable
The connection of the voltage cable to the appliance's terminal block is of type "Y". This means that its replacement requires the specific equipment of a technician. In this case, only cable type H05V2V2-F T90 must be used. The cable section must be suitable to the voltage and the working temperature. The yellow/green earth wire must be approximately 2 cm. longer than the phase wires (Fig. 3). To open the terminal block and reach the terminals, proceed as follows: " insert the point of a screwdriver into the visible protrunding part of the terminal block; " exert a light pressure and lift (Fig. 4).
