CAUTION

The STANDBY/ON switch on this unit will not completely shut off all power from the AC outlet. Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore, make sure the unit has been installed so that the power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power cord should also be unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of time (for example, when on vacation).

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

Start your volume control at a low setting.

Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

• Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

Decibel

Level Example

30 Quiet library, soft whispers

40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic 50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office 60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine 70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant

80Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.

THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS

UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE

90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower 100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill 120 Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap

140 Gunshot blast, jet plane

180 Rocket launching pad

About HDMI

This player incorporates High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) technology.

The conventional players can transmit a video signal with 8 bit color depth in the YCbCr 4:4:4 or RGB formats, the players supporting Deep Color can transmit a video signal with a color bit depth of greater than 8 bits per color component. Subtle color gradations can be reproduced when connected to a TV that supports Deep Color.

HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing LLC.

Audio signals that can be transferred with the player’s HDMI output terminal

Dolby TrueHD

Dolby Digital Plus

Dolby Digital

DTS-HD Master Audio

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

DTS Digital Surround

MPEG-2 AAC

Linear PCM

Linear PCM audio signals meeting the following conditions can be output:

Sampling frequency: 32 kHz to 192 kHz

Number of channels: Up to 8 (up to 6 for a 192 kHz sampling frequency)

For details, see About the audio output settings on page 50.

About the HDMI high speed transmission

This player outputs 1080/60p and Deep Color video signals. If your TV supports 1080/60p or Deep Color signals, use a High Speed HDMI™ cable in order to take advantage of the maximum performance the player and TV can offer. Also set HDMI HighSpeed Transmission to On (page 41).

High Speed HDMI™ cables are tested to carry signals up to 1080p. 1080/60i, 1080/60p, 1080/24p and 720/60p video signals that are capable of Deep Color can also be carried.

Note

Set HDMI High-Speed Transmission to Off when using an HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI™ cable (a Standard HDMI™ cable).

The following restrictions apply when HDMI High-Speed Transmission is set to Off:

Deep Color signals are not output.

If output video resolution is set to Auto, the signals are output with a resolution of 1080/60i, even if the TV’s preferred resolution is 1080/60p.

When the output video resolution is set to 480i or 480p, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio signals are not output as such. They are either output as Dolby Digital or DTS Digital Surround signals or converted into linear PCM. Also, 96 kHz and 192 kHz multi-channel linear PCM audio signals cannot be output. They are output as 2-channel signals (page 50).

When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it may not operate properly.

About HDCP

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a copyright protection system by which digital video signals are encrypted.

When connected to a DVI device

It is not possible to connect DVI devices (computer displays, for example) that are not compatible with HDCP.

No audio signals are output. Connect using an audio cable (included), etc.

This player is designed for connection with HDMI-compatible devices. When connected to a DVI device, it may not operate properly depending on the DVI device.

About HDMI Control function

02

 

When the player is connected to a Pioneer Flat Panel TV or AV system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.), supporting the HDMI Control function, it can be operated from the Flat Panel TV or AV system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.).

The Flat Panel TV’s input is switched automatically when playback is started on the player or the Home Menu or the Home Media Gallery is displayed. When the input is switched, the playback picture, the Home Menu or the Home Media Gallery appears on the Flat Panel TV (Auto-select function). If the Flat Panel TV’s power is being turned off at this time, it may turn on automatically (Simultaneous power function). When the language information from a connected Flat Panel TV is received, you can have the player’s on-screen display language change automatically to that of the Flat Panel TV (Unified language function). This function is available only when playback is stopped and the menu screen is not displayed.

Also refer to the operating instructions of the Flat Panel TV or AV system (AV receiver or amplifier, etc.).

To use the HDMI Control function

The HDMI Control function only works when outputting video signals from the HDMI terminal.

The HDMI Control function operates when HDMI Control is set to On for all devices connected with HDMI cables. Once connections and the settings of all the devices are finished, be sure to check that the player’s picture is output to the Flat Panel TV. (Also check after changing the connected devices and reconnecting HDMI cables.) The HDMI Control function may not operate properly if the player’s picture is not properly output to the Flat Panel TV.

Use High Speed HDMI™ cables when using the HDMI Control function. The HDMI Control function may not operate properly if other HDMI cables are used.

The function name of KURO LINK used on the web and in catalogues is referred to as HDMI Control in the operating instructions and on the product.

About PQLS function

The PQLS (Precision Quartz Lock System) is a transfer control technology using the HDMI Control function. The player’s output signals are controlled from the AV receiver or amplifier to achieve high quality sound playback using the quartz oscillator of AV receiver or amplifier. This eliminates the influence of the jitter generated upon transfer which can adversely affect the sound quality.

The PQLS function is only activated when the player is connected to a Pioneer AV receiver or amplifier compatible with the PQLS function via HDMI connection.

The PQLS function is activated when the player is set as follows (page 41):

HDMI Control: On PQLS: Auto

Also refer to the operating instructions of AV receiver or amplifier.
