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.

S002*_A1_En

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).

CAUTION

This product is a class 1 laser product classified under the Safety of laser products, IEC 60825-1:2007.

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.

Loading the batteries

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

•

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 or area.

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.

Operating range of remote control

The remote has a range of about 7 m at an angle of about 30° from the remote sensor.

Keep in mind the following when using the remote control:

•

Make sure that there are no obstacles between the remote and the remote sensor on the receiver.

•

Remote operation may become unreliable if strong sunlight or fluorescent light is shining on the receiver's remote sensor.

•

Remote controllers for different devices can interfere with each other. Avoid using remotes for other equipment located close to this receiver.

•

Replace the batteries when you notice a fall off in the operating range of the remote.

WLAN antenna connection

Connect the WLAN antenna to the WLAN ANTENNA terminal. Please always use the supplied WLAN antenna.

Speaker connection

•

The provided speaker wire with the red tube is for the plus (+) terminal. Connect the wire with red tube to the plus (+) terminal, and other wire to the minus (–) terminal.

•

Use speakers with an impedance of 4 ohms as lower impedance speakers can damage the receiver.

•

The receiver is not magnetically shielded and so should not be placed near a TV or monitor, as the interaction of magnetic materials can cause distortion of the colors on your TV screen. Magnetic storage media (such as floppy discs and tape or video cassettes) should also not be kept close to the receiver.

•

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.

•

Do not mistake the right and the left channels. The right speaker is the one on the right side when you face the receiver.

•

Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other.

•

Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel, it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Cleaning the glossy finish of the speaker (X-HM81 only)

•

If you use a dusty or hard cloth or if you rub the screen hard, the finish of the product will be scratched.

•

If you clean the surface of the speaker system with a wet cloth, water droplets on the surface may enter into the product, resulting in malfunction.

•

When cleaning the finish of the speaker system, gently wipe it with a dry soft cloth.

Applying non skid pads (X-HM81 only)

The use of non skid pads is recommended depending on the installation location. Apply the pads to the four corners of the side of the speaker which will be on the bottom. Note that depending on the location, the pads may not provide fully sufficient traction to prevent slipping, so care should be taken not to install the speakers in conditions where they may be prone to side.

•

When applying non skid pads, laid down the speaker on the soft cloth etc. to avoid working with unstable position.

If not using the provided speaker wire

Twist exposed wire strands together.

Loosen terminal and insert exposed wire.

Tighten terminal.

X-HM81 and X-HM71 only:

•

Do not install your speakers overhead on the ceiling or wall. The grill is designed to be detachable, and as such it may fall and cause damage or personal injury if installed overhead.

•

Do not allow any objects to fall into or to be placed in the bass reflex ducts.

•

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

Using other subwoofer

You can connect a subwoofer with an amplifier to the SUBWOOFER PREOUT socket.

•

No sound is heard from the subwoofer without a built-in amplifier.

Connecting a TV, etc.
