Connecting using the component video output
If your TV has component video inputs, you can use these instead of the standard video output
to connect this system to your TV.2 This should give you the best quality picture from the three types of video output available.

About progressive scan video
Compared to interlace video, progressive scan video effectively doubles the scanning rate of the picture, resulting in a very stable, flickerfree image. Progressive scan video is available only from the component video output.
Compatibility of this player with progressive-scan and high-definition TVs.
This player is compatible with progressive video Macro Vision System Copy Guard.1
Connecting the power
After making sure that everything is connected properly, plug in the power cord to the AC inlet, and the other end to a mains power outlet.
AC IN
Congratulations! You’re done setting up.
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.
Connecting auxiliary components
This system has stereo analog inputs which you can use to connect external components, such as a VCR, MD player, or your TV.
• Connect the LINE IN jacks on the rear panel to an auxiliary playback component.
Connect using RCA pin-plug stereo cables.
Note
1 Consumers should note that not all high-definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this model, please contact our customer service center.
