AC adapter caution
• Make sure to grasp the body of the AC adapter
when removing it from the power outlet. If you pull
the power cord, it may become damaged which
could lead to fire and/or electrocution.
• Do not attempt to plug in or remove the AC
adapter with wet hands. This may result in
electrocution.
• Insert the prongs of the AC adapter all the way into
the power outlet. If the connection is incomplete,
heat may be generated which could lead to fire.
Furthermore, contact with the connected prongs
of the adapter may result in electrocution.
• Do not insert the AC adapter into a power outlet
where the connection remains loose despite
inserting the prongs all the way into the outlet.
Heat may be generated which could lead to fire.
Consult with the retailer or an electrician
regarding replacement of the power outlet.
• 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 AC adapter
and power cord can cause a fire or give you an
electrical shock. Check the AC adapter and 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.
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.

Plugging in
CAUTION
• Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied
with this unit.
• Do not use the supplied power cord for any purpose
other than that described below.
• The cord on the AC adaptor is 1.5 m long. Make sure that
the body of the AC adaptor is not suspended off the
ground during use, as this will place unnecessary force
on the DC plug.
• When inserting the AC adapter into a wall socket, make
sure that there is no gap between the AC adaptor and the
wall socket. Such a gap may cause a poor connection,
and metal items like coins or paperclips falling into it
may cause a short circuit and start a fire.
Connect the AC adaptor into a wall socket. Only connect the
AC adapter when all other connections to the unit have been
completed.

About downloading MP3/WMA
There are many music sites on the internet that you can
download MP3/WMA music files. Follow the instructions
from the website on how to download the music files. You can
then play back these downloaded music files by burning them
to a CD-R/RW disc.
• Your downloaded song/files are for personal use only.
Any other usage of the song without owner’s permission,
is against the law.
About folder playback order
If MP3/WMA files are recorded in several folders, a folder
number will be set to each folder automatically.
These folders can be selected by the FOLDER on the remote
control. If there is no supported file formats inside the
selected folder, the folder is skipped and the next folder will be
selected.
Example: How the folder numbers are assigned if MP3/WMA
format files are recorded are as shown below.
1ROOT folder is set as FOLDER 1.
2As for folders inside ROOT folder (FOLDER A
and FOLDER B), the folder which is recorded
earlier on the disc will be set as FOLDER 2 and
FOLDER 3.
3As for folder inside FOLDER A (FOLDER C and
FOLDER D), the folder which is recorded earlier
on the disc will be set as FOLDER 4 and FOLDER
5.
4FOLDER E that is inside FOLDER D will be set
as FOLDER 6.
• The folder and file order information which is recorded
on the disc depends on the writing software. There
maybe possibilities that this unit will playback the files
not according to our expected playback order.
• From a disc with MP3/WMA files up to 255 folders and
999 files (including non playable files) can be read.

Notes for RDS operation
If any of the following events occur, it does
not mean that the unit is faulty:
• “PS”, “No PS” and a station name appear alternately,
and properly.
• If a particular station is not broadcasting properly or a
station is conducting tests, the RDS reception function
may not work properly.
• When you receive an RDS station whose signal is too
weak, information like the station name may not be
displayed.
• “No PS”, “No PTY” or “No RT” will flash for about 5

Notes for radio text:
• The first 8 characters of the radio text will appear and
then they will scroll across the display.

About DAB+ (Digital Audio
Broadcasting)
Digital Audio Broadcasting is a digital transmission system
where audio signals are converted to digital signals for
broadcasting. DAB+ is broadcast as a group of data called
multiplex (ensemble) which may contain one or more stations
(services). Each station contains a primary service and there
may be one or more secondary services. This allows several
programmes or services to be transmitted on a single
frequency.
After the scan:
The stations will be stored in alphanumeric order and the first
station on the list will be selected and you will hear it through
the speakers.
• To listen to other stations, see Selecting a station in the station list below.
Note
• If no station is found, "NO SIG" appears.
• Up to 100 appears for total received stations.

Do not place objects on this unit
Do not place any objects on top of this unit.
Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.
Do not use this unit on shaggy rugs, beds, sofas, etc., or
wrapped in cloth, etc. Doing so will prevent the heat from
dispersing, leading to damage.

About condensation
If this unit is moved suddenly from a cold place into a warm
room (in winter, for example) or if the temperature in the room
in which this unit is installed rises suddenly due to heater
operation, etc., water droplets (condensation) may form
inside (on operating parts and the lens). When condensation
is present, this unit will not operate properly and playback is
not possible. Let this unit 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 this unit is directly exposed to the air flow
from an air-conditioner. If this happens, move this unit to a
different place.
Cleaning the product
• Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when
cleaning this unit.
• Clean this unit using a soft cloth. For tough dirt, apply
some neutral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts water to a
soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then
wipe again with a soft, dry cloth.
• Alcohol, thinner, benzene, insecticides , etc., could cause
the print or paint to peel off. Also, leaving rubber or vinyl
products in contact with this unit for long periods of time
could mar the cabinet.
• When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read the
cautions included with the wipes carefully.
Cleaning the lens
• This unit’s lens should not become dirty in normal use,
but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust
or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized service
center. Although lens cleaners for players are
commercially available, we advise against using them
since some may damage the lens.
Handling discs
Storing
• Always place discs in their cases and store them
vertically, avoiding hot, humid places, places exposed to
direct sunlight and extremely cold places.
• Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.
Cleaning discs
• Discs may not play if there are fingerprints or dust on
them. In this case, use a cleaning cloth, etc., to gently
wipe the disc from the inside towards the outside. Do not
use dirty cleaning cloths.
• Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile chemicals.
Also do not use record spray or antistatic agents.
• For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth, wring out
thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off the moisture
with a dry cloth.
• Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
• Do not let the signal surface of discs get scratched or
dirty.
• Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to discs. Doing
so could warp discs, making it impossible to play them.
Also note that rental discs often have labels attached to
them, and the label’s glue may have oozed out. Check
that there is no glue around the edges of such labels
before using rented discs.
About specially shaped discs
