a CD player, using an optional audio cable.

4

LEVEL switch: Sets the recording level.
LEVEL[1](recording with the normal volume level): To record from the line out
jack or headphone jack of a device such as a portable music player.
LEVEL[2](recording with the volume lowered): To record from the line out jack
of a device that has a high sound output level, such as a component audio system.
(Using LEVEL[1] in this case may result in distortion of the audio signal.)

using the USB cable (supplied with the Walkman).

Note

If a device other than a computer is to be connected, refer to the operating
instructions supplied with the device.

• If the cradle is connected to a wall outlet, the Walkman will be charged from the wall outlet.
• Even if the cradle is not connected to a wall outlet, the Walkman can be charged via

the USB cable. If the cradle is connected to a laptop computer which is not connected
to a wall outlet, the Walkman will deplete the battery of the laptop computer.

• A Walkman will not be recognized by a computer if the cradle is connected to

the computer by the DC charging cord.

• If the Walkman is disconnected from the cradle while data is being transferred

from the computer, attach the Walkman to the cradle and transfer the data again.

• Do not disconnect the USB cable, DC charging cord and AC power cord while

transferring data from the computer; otherwise the data transfer will be
interrupted. If this occurs, detach the Walkman from the cradle, and transfer
the data after attaching the Walkman to the cradle again.

Recording to a Walkman

Refer to Illustration F.
By connecting a music player, such as a CD player, to the AUDIO IN jack of the cradle

Hint

Sound levels during recording can be changed by setting the LEVEL switch. For
details, refer to “LEVEL switch” under “Parts and controls”.

Notes

• If the audio cable is connected to the AUDIO OUT jack, sound during recording is output

from an audio output device, such as an active speaker. If nothing is connected to the AUDIO
OUT jack, sound during recording is output from the headphone jack of the Walkman.

• For customers in Europe:

If you record to the NW-S700F / S600 series Walkman model using the cradle
to monitor sound during recording from the headphone jack of the Walkman,
disconnect the DC charging cord from the DC IN jack of the cradle beforehand.

from the AUDIO OUT jack. If this occurs, detach the Walkman from the
cradle, and start playback after attaching the Walkman to the cradle again.

• While the cradle is connected to the computer, sound may not be output from the AUDIO

OUT jack of the cradle. If this occurs, disconnect the USB cable from the computer.

• Sound from the computer is not output from the AUDIO OUT jack of the cradle.
• While the cradle is connected to an audio output device, no sound is output

from the headphone jack of the Walkman.

• If the recording level of audio data played back on the Walkman is too high, the

output sound quality from the Walkman via the cradle to a device, such as an
active speaker, may not meet the user customized settings, e.g., “Equalizer” etc.
