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.

Problem English
You cannot select all of the channels and the P+/- or Arrow up/down buttons do not always work. You cannot access a particular channel, even using the number buttons.
Possible cause
Some channels have been selected as favourites and the favourites mode is on. The parental lock has been activated on this channel and an OSD message prompts you for your PIN code.
Action
Use the <FAV> button to select another Favourite list. Use the All TV Channel list to see all available TV channels. Enter your parental code to access the channel or unlock the channel. See paragraph 5.7 for more details. When prompted for your PIN code, enter the Master PIN code.This will allow you to proceed as well as reset the PIN code to the default PIN code of the receiver (default is 1234). The Master PIN Code is 0112. Note: Keep this code secret to prevent your children from using it.
You have forgotten your PIN code.
