WARNING
This product may contain a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, or birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
Health & Safety Code Section 25249.6 - Proposition 65
This service manual is intended for qualified service technicians; it is not meant for the casual do-ityourselfer. Qualified technicians have the necessary test equipment and tools, and have been trained
to properly and safely repair complex products such as those covered by this manual.
Improperly performed repairs can adversely affect the safety and reliability of the product and may
void the warranty. If you are not qualified to perform the repair of this product properly and safely, you
should not risk trying to do so and refer the repair to a qualified service technician.
1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following check should be performed for the
continued protection of the customer and service
technician.
LEAKAGE CURRENT CHECK
Measure leakage current to a known earth ground
(water pipe, conduit, etc.) by connecting a leakage
current tester such as Simpson Model 229-2 or
equivalent between the earth ground and all exposed
metal parts of the appliance (input/output terminals,
screwheads, metal overlays, control shaft, etc.). Plug
the AC line cord of the appliance directly into a 120 V
AC 60 Hz outlet and turn the AC power switch on. Any
current measured must not exceed 0.5 mA.
ANY MEASUREMENTS NOT WITHIN THE LIMITS
OUTLINED ABOVE ARE INDICATIVE OF A POTENTIAL
SHOCK HAZARD AND MUST BE CORRECTED BEFORE
RETURNING THE APPLIANCE TO THE CUSTOMER.
2. PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in the appliance
have special safety related characteristics. These are
often not evident from visual inspection nor the protection
afforded by them necessarily can be obtained by using
replacement components rated for voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have these special safety
characteristics are identified in this Service Manual.
Electrical components having such features are
identified by marking with a > on the schematics and on
the parts list in this Service Manual.
The use of a substitute replacement component which
does not have the same safety characteristics as the
PIONEER recommended replacement one, shown in the
parts list in this Service Manual, may create shock, fire,
or other hazards.
Product Safety is continuously under review and new
instructions are issued from time to time. For the latest
information, always consult the current PIONEER Service
Manual. A subscription to, or additional copies of,
PIONEER Service Manual may be obtained at a nominal
charge from PIONEER.

• For environmental protection, lead-free solder is used on the printed circuit boards mounted in this unit.
Be sure to use lead-free solder and a soldering iron that can meet specifications for use with lead-free solders for repairs
accompanied by reworking of soldering.
• Compared with conventional eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher melting points, by approximately 40 ºC.
Therefore, for lead-free soldering, the tip temperature of a soldering iron must be set to around 373 ºC in general, although
the temperature depends on the heat capacity of the PC board on which reworking is required and the weight of the tip of
the soldering iron.
Do NOT use a soldering iron whose tip temperature cannot be controlled.
Compared with eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher bond strengths but slower wetting times and higher melting
temperatures (hard to melt/easy to harden).
The following lead-free solders are available as service parts:
• Parts numbers of lead-free solder:
GYP1006 1.0 in dia.
GYP1007 0.6 in dia.
GYP1008 0.3 in dia.
The part listed below is difficult to replace as a discrete component part.
When the part listed in the table is defective, replace whole Assy.

How to Distinguish Causes of Failure Regarding HDMI Connection and HDMI Control
A source device that is connected via the HDMI input connector is not
recognized. (The HDMI LED is not lit.)
[Problem in use]
• Turn the source device ON.
Although some source devices output a hot-plug
(equipment connection detection) signal even
when in STANDBY mode, others don’ t and are
thus not recognized.
OFF or STANDBY
[Problem in use]
• Set the Output setting to HDMI.
On some devices, even if you do not set the HDMI
Output setting to OFF, if an output other than HDMI
is set to ON, the HDMI Output setting will be
automatically set to OFF.

Forced power-on
Forced power-on
If DC is detected even for an instant, the protection relay
(speaker relay) will be immediately turned off. Monitoring
of DC continues, and if DC is successively detected for
3 sec or more, the unit will shut itself off. If DC is detected
for less than 3 sec, the protection relay will go back ON
again and the unit will return to Play mode.
If DC is detected for less than 3 sec, the unit
can be used continuously.
With DC detection 3 sec or longer, the unit
cannot be restarted after shutdown.
The unit can be recovered by forced power-on.

The unit will stop supplying +5-V power for the BT Adaptor.
"ADP ERR" POWER OFF/ON—
"OVER HEAT" SD Set the POWER button to ON after letting
the unit sit for cool-down.
After detection, the unit will immediately shut itself off.
"OVER TEMP" TEMP Use the unit at lower volume.The volume will be decreased by 3 dB if the same high
temperature is detected again 2 min after the first
detection. In the same way, at each detection of the
high temperature, which is performed at intervals of 2 min,
the volume will be decreased by 3 dB.
After the volume falls down to -20 dB, that level will be
maintained.

Check the error history. If the error
codes are “TEMP 000,SD 001,” the
unit will shut itself off because of
excess current detection. Check the
connection at the speaker terminals
for short-circuiting.
POWER OFF
To limit the level of the signal to be input to the AMP IC,
power of the operational amp on the differential buffer
circuit is controlled.
As a result of oscillation stop of PVDD power, the PVDD
voltage is decreased, DC1_PROTECTION is activated,
then the unit shuts itself off.
