WARNING

Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product, and to protect it from overheating. To prevent fire hazard, the openings should never be blocked or covered with items (such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains) or by operating the equipment on thick carpe or a bed.

D3-4-2-1-7b*_A1_E

CAUTION

The 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).

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 restaurant or use in a car or ship) and which requires repair will be charged for even during the warranty period.

CAUTION

This product is a class 1 laser product classified under the Safety of laser products, IEC 60825-1:1993 + A1:1997 + A2:2001, but this product contains a laser diode higher than Class 1. To ensure continued safety, do not remove any covers or attempt to gain access to the inside of the product. Refer all servicing

to qualified personnel.

The following caution label appears on your unit. Location: Inside of the unit

Condensation

If the player is moved suddenly from a cold place into a warm room (in winter, for example) or if the temperature in the room in which the player is installed rises suddenly due to a heater, etc., water droplets (condensation) may form inside (on operating parts and the lens). When condensation is present, the player will not operate properly and playback is not possible. Let the player stand at room temperature for 1 or 2 hours with the power turned on (the time depends on the extent of condensation). The water droplets will dissipate and playback will become possible. Condensation can also occur in the summer if the player is exposed to the direct wind from an air-conditioner. If this happens, move the player to a different place.

Precautions

n General

l Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration. l Place the speakers at least 30 cm away from any CRT

TV to avoid color variations across the TV screen. If the variations persist, move the speakers further away from the TV. LCD TV is not prone to such variation.

l Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong

magnetic fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which generate electrical noise.

l Do not place anything on top of the unit. l Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures

higher than 60°C (140°F) or to extremely low temperatures.

l If your system does not work properly, disconnect the

AC power lead from the wall socket. Plug the AC power lead back in, and then turn on your system.

l In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safety. l Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it

from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage internal wires.

l The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and

shall always remain readily operable.

l Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result

in electric shock. Refer internal service to your local PIONEER service facility.

Controls and indicators

l The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the

ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.

l No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles,

should be placed on the apparatus.

l Attention should be drawn to the environmental

aspects of battery disposal.

l The apparatus is designed for use in moderate

climates.

Warning:

The voltage used must be the same as that specified on this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other than that which is specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other type of accident causing damage. PIONEER will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than that which is specified.

n Volume control

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

n DAB/FM aerial connection

Supplied DAB/FM aerial:

Connect the DAB/FM aerial wire to the DAB/FM 75 ohms socket and position the DAB/FM aerial wire in the direction where the strongest signal can be received.

External DAB/FM aerial:

Use an external DAB/FM aerial (75 ohms coaxial cable) for better reception. When an external DAB/FM aerial is used, disconnect the supplied DAB/FM aerial wire.

Note:

Placing the aerial on the unit or near the AC power lead may cause noise pickup. Place the aerial away from the unit for better reception.

n Speaker connection

l Twist exposed wire strands

together.

l Connect the red wire to the plus

(+) terminal, and other wire to the minus (–) terminal.

l Use speakers with an impedance

of 4 ohms, as lower impedance speakers can damage the unit.

l These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE

voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.

l Do not attach these speakers to the wall or ceiling, as

they may cause injury in the event of a fall.

l Do not mistake the right and the left channels. The right

speaker is the one on the right side when you face the unit.

l Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other. l Do not allow any objects to fall into or to be placed in

the bass reflex ducts.

l Do not stand or sit on the speakers. You may be

injured.

l Do not connect the supplied speakers with any other

amplifier. This may result in malfunction or fire.

n Connecting your TV

Photo and video files from iPod, iPhone and DVD videos can be viewed by connecting the system to TV/monitor. If the TV/monitor has a video input, connect it to the VIDEO OUT socket at the back of the unit and set the TV Out on the iPod or iPhone unit to “ON” position.

Notes:

l Please make sure to set iPod unit to either NTSC or

PAL to match your TV signal. Please visit Apple’s homepage for further information.

l You can also use S-Video, component video, or HDMI

cable. (page 11)

n AC power connection

After checking all the connections have been made correctly, plug the AC power lead of this unit into the wall socket.

Note:

Unplug the AC power lead from the wall socket if the unit will not be in use for a prolonged period of time.

Caution:

l Handle the power cord by the plug part. 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, or other object on the power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables. The power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electric shock. Check the power cord once in a while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service company for a replacement.

l Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied

with this unit.

l Do not use the supplied power cord for any purpose

other than that described above.

n Connect your TV (Enjoying DVD or iPod

video)

For better quality, you can also connect with S-video using the S-VIDEO OUT jack. If your TV also has a component video input or HDMI input, you can connect this too.

Using the component video jacks:

Component video should deliver superior picture quality when compared to composite video. A further advantage is progressive-scan video, which delivers a very stable, flicker-free picture. See the manuals that came with your TV to check whether they are compatible with progressivescan video.

Using HDMI terminal:

If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped TV, you can connect it to this receiver using a commercially available HDMI cable.

Note:

If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try adjusting the resolution settings on your TV. Note that some video contents have resolutions that may not be displayed. In this case, use a (analog) composite connection.
