Location

Install the player in a well-ventilated location where it will not be
exposed to high temperatures or humidity.

Do not install the player in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can
adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation
of the player in a damp or dusty environment may also result in a
malfunction or an accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc.,
where the player may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.)
Do not install the player on a tottered stand nor in an unstable or
inclined place.

Precautions regarding installation

÷ Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on

heat-generating sources such as amplifiers will affect perfor­mance. Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.

÷ Install this compact disc player as far as possible from tuners

and TV sets. A compact disc player installed in close proximity
to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the pic­ture.

÷ Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor an-

tenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna,
or turn off power to the compact disc player.

÷ Please place this unit on a level surface.

Condensation

When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold
surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, con­densation may form inside, and the unit may not be able to attain
its full performance. If this occurs, allow the unit to stand for about
an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.

Cleaning and handling compact discs

÷ The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the

disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but depending
on the degree of contamination, the brightness of the light
reflected from the signal surfaces may be reduced, causing
degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by
wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge to­ward the outer periphery.

÷ If a disc becomes very dirty, dip a soft cloth in water, and after

wringing it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove
any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.

÷ Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs.

Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile
solvents, since damage to the disc surface may result.

Cleaning the player

To clean the PLAYER, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn
dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution made by dilut­ing one part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well, then wipe
off the dirt. Also use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not
use volatile liquids such as benzene and thinner which are harmful
to the unit.

Storing discs

÷ Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conven-

tional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to
warp; always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding loca­tions with high heat or humidity, or extremely low tempera­tures. Avoid leaving discs in cars, since the seat of a car in
direct sunlight can become unbelievably hot.

÷ Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc

labels.

CD lens cleaner

The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use, but
if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling, consult your
nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens cleaners for CD
players are commercially available, but special care should be exer­cised in their use since some may cause damage to the lens.

<PRB1289>

With this unit, use a Compact Disc carrying the mark shown
below. Do not use other disc, for this may result in malfunc­tion or damage.

÷ When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by

the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.

÷ Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the label surfaces. Also,

do not scratch or damage the label.

÷ Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use dam-

aged (cracked or warped) discs.

CAUTION RE: USE OF SHAPED CD's

This product is designed for use with conventional, fully circular CD's
only.
Use of shaped CD's is not recommended for this product.
Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of

them into 3 categories (CUSTOM). [page 12]

For example, if you register you own discs in CUSTOM I, your
mother’s discs in CUSTOM II and your father’s discs in CUSTOM
III or if you select three kinds of music genres or artists and
register them in the three CUSTOM banks, you can play all of the
discs classified under one of the three CUSTOM banks. Addition
of discs to already-registered discs is also possible. Each of the
three CUSTOM banks can register up to 100 discs.

Single Loader slot is provided. [page 11]

If you have a disc borrowed from a friend, you can play only that
disc by loading it in this special slot (Disc No. 0), without replacing
discs stored in the rack.

Immediately access and play your favorite tracks
from among the 100 discs loaded in the player.
