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.

Starting a washing programme
1. Check that the baskets have been loaded correctly and that the spray arms can rotate freely 2. Turn on the water tap 3. Close the dishwasher door 4. Setting and starting the programme
Turn the programme selector dial until the marker on the dial corresponds with the desired programme (see "Washing programmes" chart). The On/Off indicator light illuminates. The indicator lights of the phases foreseen for the programme start flashing. Press the Start/Cancel button, the programme starts automatically and the Start/Cancel indicator light illuminates. The indicator light of the phase in progress is illuminated. NOTE: during the running of the programme, it is not possible to change the selection made by positioning the programme selector dial in correspondence of another programme. If you want to change the running washing programme you must cancel the selection made (see "To cancel a washing programme in progress").
5. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress
Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it�s absolutely necessary. Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Open the door carefully.
To interrupt a washing programme in progress
Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted.
To cancel a washing programme in progress
Press the Start/Cancel button for about 5 seconds. The Start/Cancel indicator light turns off and the phase indicator lights are flashing. The running programme has been cancelled and it is now possible to set a new washing programme. If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser.
6. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will stop automatically. The illumination of the End indicator light indicates that the programme has ended. Switch off the dishwasher by returning the programme selector dial to the Off position. The On/Off indicator light turns off. Open the dishwasher�s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
Set the "Delay Start" of a programme:
Once the washing programme has been set, press the "Delay Start" button. The corresponding indicator light illuminates. Press the Start/Cancel button, the countdown of the delay start begins automatically. The indicator lights of the phases turn off. The opening of the door will not modify or interrupt the countdown. Once the delay start has elapsed the washing programme will start automatically, the delay start indicator light turns off and the indicator light of the phase in progress illuminates.
7. Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance. Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one. Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.
To cancel a delay start in progress
Press the Start/Cancel button for about 5 seconds, the indicator lights of Start/Cancel and Delay Start buttons turn off while the indicator lights of the phases start flashing. To start the selected washing programme press the Start/Cancel button.
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
NOTE: the washing programme or the countdown of the delay start will begin only after having pressed the Start/Cancel button. Until that moment it is possible to modify the selection made.
