Welcome!

Thank you for purchasing the Sony CD

changer system. This unit lets you enjoy CD

sound with the changer.

The CDX-454XRF/454RF is a compact disc

changer system comprised of the wired remote

commander, the relay box, and the CD

changer. The CD changer modulates the audio

signal into the RF (Radio Frequency) signal so

that it can be received by the existing FM tuner

of your car audio. Therefore you will be able to

enjoy CD play with your car audio even if it

has no input terminals for a compact disc

player.

•Compact and space saving CD changer for

vertical, horizontal, suspended, or inclined

installation in your car.

•Supplied wired remote enables you to

control the CD changer installed in the trunk

room of your car.

•Repeat play function for playing a track or a

disc repeatedly.

•Shuffle play function for playing tracks of

one disc or of all discs in random order.

•D-BASS function for dynamic bass boot.

For the cust omers in the USA
