Manual de instrucciones

Thank you for purchasing this PIONEER product.

To ensure proper use, please read through this manual before using this product. It is especially important that you read and observe WARNINGs and CAUTIONs in this manual.

Please keep the manual in a safe and accessible place for future reference.

Information to User

Alteration or modifications carried out without appropriate authorization may invalidate the user’s right to operate the equipment.

For Canadian model

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

The Safety of Your Ears is in Your Hands

Get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level—a level that lets the sound come through clearly 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.

ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:

! Set your volume control at a low setting. ! Slowly increase the sound until you can

hear it comfortably and clearly, without distortion.

! Once you have established a comfortable

sound level, set the dial and leave it there.

BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:

! Do not turn up the volume so high that you

can’t hear what’s around you.

! Use caution or temporarily discontinue use

in potentially hazardous situations.

! Do not use headphones while operating a

motorized vehicle; the use of headphones may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.

Important

! When installing this unit in a vehicle without

an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition switch, failure to connect the red cable to the terminal that detects operation of the ignition key may result in battery drain.

ACC position No ACC position

! Use this unit with a 12-volt battery and nega-

tive grounding only. Failure to do so may result in a fire or malfunction.

! To prevent a short-circuit, overheating or mal-

function, be sure to follow the directions below.

— Disconnect the negative terminal of the

battery before installation.

— Secure the wiring with cable clamps or ad-

hesive tape. Wrap adhesive tape around wiring that comes into contact with metal parts to protect the wiring.

— Place all cables away from moving parts,

such as the gear shift and seat rails.

— Place all cables away from hot places,

such as near the heater outlet.

— Do not connect the yellow cable to the bat-

tery by passing it through the hole to the engine compartment.

— Cover any disconnected cable connectors

with insulating tape.

— Do not shorten any cables. — Never cut the insulation of the power cable

of this unit in order to share the power with other devices. The current capacity of the cable is limited.

— Use a fuse of the rating prescribed. — Never wire the negative speaker cable di-

rectly to ground.

— Never band together negative cables of

multiple speakers.

! When this unit is on, control signals are sent

through the blue/white cable. Connect this cable to the system remote control of an external power amp or the vehicle’s auto-antenna relay control terminal (max. 300 mA 12 V DC). If the vehicle is equipped with a glass antenna, connect it to the antenna booster power supply terminal.

! Never connect the blue/white cable to the

power terminal of an external power amp. Also, never connect it to the power terminal of the auto antenna. Doing so may result in battery drain or a malfunction.

DualDiscs

DualDiscs are two-sided discs that have a recordable CD for audio on one side and a recordable DVD for video on the other. Since the CD side of DualDiscs is not physically compatible with the general CD standard, it may not be possible to play the CD side with this unit.

Frequent loading and ejecting of a DualDisc may result in scratches on the disc. Serious scratches can lead to playback problems on this unit. In some cases, a DualDisc may become stuck in the disc loading slot and will not eject. To prevent this, we recommend you refrain from using DualDisc with this unit. Please refer to the information from the disc manufacturer for more detailed information about DualDiscs.

Disc

Folder selection sequence or other operation may differ depending on the encoding or writing software.

USB storage device

Playback sequence is the same as recorded sequence in the USB storage device. To specify the playback sequence, the following method is recommended.

1 Create a file name that includes numbers that

specify the playback sequence (e.g., 001xxx. mp3 and 099yyy.mp3).

2 Put those files into a folder. 3 Save the folder containing files on the USB

storage device.

However, depending on the system environment, you may not be able to specify the playback sequence. For USB portable audio players, the sequence is different and depends on the player.
