CAUTION

The /I 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).

D3-4-2-2-2a*_A1_En

This product is for general household purposes. Any
failure due to use for other than household purposes
(such as long-term use for business purposes in a

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.

Loading the batteries

The batteries included with the unit have been provided to
allow you check product operation and may not last long. We
recommend using alkaline batteries that have a longer life.

•

Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight or other
excessively hot place, such as inside a car or near a heater.
This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch
fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of batteries.

•

Incorrect use of batteries may result in such hazards as
leakage and bursting. Observe the following precautions:

-

Never use new and old batteries together.

-

Insert the plus and minus sides of the batteries properly
according to the marks in the battery case.

-

Batteries with the same shape may have different
voltages. Do not use different batteries together.

-

When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental regulations or environmental public
institution’s rules that apply in your country/area.

-

When inserting the batteries, make sure not to damage
the springs on the battery’s (–) terminals. This can cause
batteries to leak or overheat.
