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 carpet or a bed.

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).

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.

n General

l Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
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.

Connect the black wire to the minus (–) terminal, and the
red wire to the plus (+) terminal.

Caution:

l Use speakers with an impedance of 6 ohms or more, 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.

Incorrect

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. If you plug in the unit first, the unit will enter the stand-by mode.

Note:

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

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.
