CAUTION
The POWER 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).
POWER-CORD CAUTION
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed such that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement.

02 Connecting up
1 Connect the VIDEO OUT and AUDIO OUT L/R jacks to a set of A/V inputs on your TV.
Use the supplied audio/video cable, connecting the red and white plugs to the audio outputs and the yellow plug to the video output. Make sure you match up the left and right audio outputs with their corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound.
See below if you want to use a component or S-video cable for the video connection.
2 Connect the supplied AC power cable to the AC IN inlet, then plug into a power outlet.
Note
•Before unplugging the player from the power outlet, make sure you first switch it into standby using either the front panel STANDBY/ON button, or the remote control, and wait of the -OFF- message to disappear from the player’s display.
•For the above reasons, do not plug this player into a switched power supply found on some amplifiers and AV receivers.
Connecting using a SCART AV cable
A SCART-type AV connector is provided for connection to a TV or AV receiver. The video output is switchable between ordinary composite and RGB. See AV Connector Out on page 34 for how to set it.
The SCART AV connector also outputs analog audio, so there is no need to also connect the
AUDIO OUT L/R jacks.

Watching progressive scan video from the component video outputs
This player can output progressive scan video from the component video output. Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free image.
To set up the player for use with a progressive scan TV, see Video Output settings on page 34. When the player is set to output progressive scan video, the PRGSVE indicator lights in the front panel display.
Important
•If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and switch the player to progressive, you will not be able to see any picture at all. In this case, switch everything off and reconnect using the supplied video cable (see Easy connections on page 11), then switch back to Interlace (see below).

Resume and Last Memory
When you stop playback of a DVD, CD, Video CD/Super VCD or DivX video discs, RESUME is shown in the display indicating that you can resume playback again from that point.

With DVDs and Video CD/ Super VCDs, if you take the disc out of the player after stopping playback, the last play position is stored in memory. If the next disc you load is the same one, the display shows LAST MEM and playback will resume. For DVD-Video discs, the player stores the play position of the last five discs. When one of these discs is next loaded, you can resume playback.
Note
•The Last Memory function doesn’t work with VR format DVD-RW discs.
•If you don’t need the Last Memory function when you stop a disc, you can press OPEN/CLOSE to stop playback and open the disc tray.

FAQ
•After I load a DVD disc, it ejects automatically after a few seconds!
Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for your player. The region number should be printed on the disc; check it against the region number of the player (which you can find on the rear panel). See also DVD-Video regions on page 40.
If the region number is OK, it may be that the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc and look for signs of damage. See also
Taking care of your player and discs on page 38.
•Why won’t the disc I loaded play?
First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side up), and that it’s clean and undamaged. See Taking care of your player and discs on page 38 for information on cleaning discs.
If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s probably an incompatible format or disc type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See
Disc/content format playback compatibility on page 7 for more on disc compatibility.
•I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when I play some discs?
Some movie formats are such that even when played on a widescreen TV, black bars are necessary at the top and bottom of the screen. This is not a malfunction.
•I have a standard (4:3) TV and set the player to show widescreen DVDs in pan & scan format, so why do I still get black bars top and bottom with some discs?
Some discs override the display preferences of the player, so even if you have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those discs will still be shown in letter box format. This is not a malfunction.
