Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.
Please read through these operating instructions so that you will know how to operate your model
properly. After you have finished reading the instructions,
Depending on the size and characteristics of
your room, you can place your speakers in one
of two ways using this system. For the speaker
configuration, see the Setup Guide.
5 spot/4 spot speaker layout
This is a standard multichannel surround
sound speaker setup for optimal 5.1 channel
home theater sound.
3 spot/2 spot speaker layout
This setup is ideal when rear surround speaker
placement isn’t possible or you want to avoid
running long speaker cables in your listening
area.
Preparing the speakers
Preparation common to all models
Attaching non-skid pads
•Attach the smaller non-skid pads to the
base of each of the speakers. The four large
non-skid pads are for the subwoofer.
Use the supplied adhesive to attach 3 or 4 pads to
the base (flat surface) of each speaker.
Preparation for the HTZ280DVD/
HTZ280DVD-AP/HTZ282DVD/
HTZ282DVD-AP
The layouts of the 5-spot speaker and 3-spot
speaker are the same:
Assembling the speaker stands
•Attach the speaker stand bases to the
stems using the screws provided.
Once you have aligned the stem and base,
secure with the small screws at the points see
the Setup Guide. Note that the speaker should
face in the direction of the base of the isosceles
triangle.

CAUTION
• Be careful not to tighten screws
excessively.
• If excessive force is used to tighten screws,
the threads of screw and/or nut may be
damaged. Use a middle-sized manual
screwdriver during assembly.
• Do not use power screwdrivers or oversized
screwdrivers that may exert excessive force
on the screws and nuts.
• Confirm that no foreign matter is stuck to
the stand base or the tall speaker during
assembly.
• If the unit is assembled with foreign matter
stuck between the stand base and the tall
speaker the unit may not be assembled
securely, resulting in tipping or falling.
• Do not stand on the speaker stand base of
the tall speaker to push or swing the
speaker. The speaker may fall and break, or
someone may be injured. Pay special
attention to children.
Securing your front and surround
speakers
•Secure each of the front and surround
speakers using the plastic catch provided.
Screw two supporting hooks into the wall behind
the speaker. Pass a thick cord around the hooks
and through the plastic catch so that the speaker
is stabilized (make sure to test that it supports the
weight of the speaker). After installing, make sure
the speaker is securely fixed.
Sufficiently thick
cord
Plastic catch

CAUTION
• The plastic catch is not a mounting fixture,
and the speaker should not be hung
directly from the wall using this catch.
Always use a cord when stabilizing the
speaker.
• Pioneer disclaims all responsibility for any
losses or damage resulting from improper
assembly, installation, insufficient
strength of the installation materials,
misuse, or natural disasters.
• When placing this unit, ensure that it is
firmly secured and avoid areas where it

• Make sure to tighten the supplied screw as
securely as possible when attaching the
bracket to the back of the speaker.
• Please do not attach the brackets to the
center speaker.
Bracket screw
(supplied)
• When using the 5 spot speaker layout,
install the surround speakers slightly
above ear level for optimum effect.
Precautions:
• When installing the center speaker on top
of the TV, be sure to secure it with tape or
some other suitable means. Otherwise, the
speaker may fall from the TV due to
external shocks such as earthquakes,
endangering those nearby or damaging
the speaker.
• 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.
• The front, center and surround speakers
supplied with this system are magnetically
shielded. However, depending on the
installation location, color distortion may
occur if the speaker is installed extremely
close to the screen of a television set. If this
case happens, turn the power switch of the
television set OFF, and turn it ON after
15 min. to 30 min. If the problem persists,
place the speaker system away from the
television set.
• The subwoofer is not magnetically shielded
and so should not be placed near a TV or
monitor. Magnetic storage media (such as
floppy discs and tape or video cassettes)
should also not be kept close to the
subwoofer.
• Do not attach the center speaker (only of
the HTZ180DVD) the front (of the HTZ280/
282DVD)/surround speaker (only of the
HTZ282DVD) and subwoofer to a wall or
ceiling. They may fall off and cause injury.
• Do not place the surround speaker on the
top of the front speaker, as it may injure
someone in the event that it falls (only for
the HTZ280DVD).

1 • The component video output is switchable between interlaced and progressive formats. See
• While the player is connected using HDMI cable, the component video output cannot be switched between Interlace and
Progressive formats. When HDMI Resolution is set to 720x480i (NTSC)/720x576i (PAL), Interlace format is automatically
selected, and Progressive format is automatically selected in other settings.
2 Consumers should note that not all high-definition television sets are fully compatible with this product and may cause
artifacts to be displayed in the picture. In case of 525 progressive scan picture problems, it is recommended that the user switch
the connection to the ‘standard definition’ output (Interlace). If there are questions regarding our TV set compatibility with this
model, please contact our customer service center.
3 • An HDMI connection can only be made with DVI-equipped components compatible with both DVI and High Bandwidth
Digital Content Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector, you will need a separate adaptor (DVIHDMI)
to do so. A DVI connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult your local audio dealer for more information.
• Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.
• When you change the component connected to the HDMI output, you will also need to change the HDMI settings to match
the new component (see Video Output settings on page 35 to do this).

About HDMI
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)
supports both video and audio on a single
digital connection for use with DVD players,
DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI
was developed to provide the technologies of
High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI)
in one specification. HDCP is used to protect
digital content transmitted and received by DVIcompliant displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard,
enhanced, or high-definition video plus
standard to multichannel surround-sound
audio. HDMI features include uncompressed
digital video, a bandwidth of up to five
gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals), one
connector (instead of several cables and
connectors), and communication between the
AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition
Multimedia Interface are trademarks or
registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing, LLC.
Connecting external antennas
For an external AM antenna, use 5 m to 6 m of
vinyl-insulated wire and set up either indoors or
outdoors. Leave the loop antenna connected.
Only use the included AM loop antenna.
For an external FM antenna, use a PAL
connector to hook up an external FM antenna.

Using and taking care of discs
Handling discs
Hold the disc by its edges when handling so as
not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on
either side of the disc. Damaged or dirty discs
can affect playback performance.
If a disc becomes marked with fingerprints,
dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth.
Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using
straight strokes. Don’t wipe the disc surface
with circular strokes.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use
benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents such
as those designed for cleaning vinyl records.
Storing discs
Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid,
or hot environments (including under direct
sunlight). Don’t glue paper or put stickers onto
the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other
sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could
all damage the disc.

Note
Discs to avoid
Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If a
disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise
damaged, don’t risk using it in your player —
you could end up damaging the unit.
This unit is designed for use with conventional,
fully circular discs only. Pioneer disclaims all
liability arising in connection with the use of
shaped discs.
DVD Video regions
All DVD Video discs carry a region mark that
indicates which region(s) of the world the disc
is compatible with. Your DVD system also has
a region mark (on the rear panel). Discs from
incompatible regions will not play in this
player. Discs marked ALL play in any player.
When you insert a disc that cannot be played
on this player, one of the following messages is
displayed:

Installation and maintenance
Hints on installation
We want you to enjoy using this system for
years to come, so please bear in mind the
following points when choosing a location:
Do...
Use in a well-ventilated room.
Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a
table, shelf or stereo rack.
Don’t...
Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or
humidity, including near radiators and other
heat-generating appliances.
Place on a window sill or other place where the
system will be exposed to direct sunlight.
Use in an excessively dusty or damp
environment.
Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other
component in your stereo system that becomes
hot in use.
Use near a television or monitor as you may
experience interference — especially if the
television uses an indoor antenna.
Use in a kitchen or other room where the system
may be exposed to smoke or steam.
Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth
— this may prevent proper cooling of the system
unit.
Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not
large enough to support all four of the system
unit’s feet.
Cleaning the pickup lens
The DVD player’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 are commercially
available, we do not recommend using them
since some may damage the lens.
Problems with condensation
Condensation may form inside the player if it is
brought into a warm room from outside, or if
the temperature of the room rises quickly.
Although the condensation won’t damage the
player, it may temporarily impair performance.
Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature
for about an hour before switching on.
Moving the system unit
If you need to move the main unit, first remove
a disc if there’s one in the player, then press
STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the
system off. Wait for -OFF- to disappear from
the display, then unplug the power cord.
Never lift or move the unit during playback —
discs rotate at high speeds and may damage.
1
1 Unplugging the unit before -OFF- disappears from the display may cause the system to return to the factory settings.

Screen sizes and disc formats
DVD-Video discs come in different screen
aspects, ranging from TV programs, which are
generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen
1
movies
, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.
Televisions also come in different aspect ratios;
‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.
Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen
setting (page 35) of this player should be set
to 16:9 (Wide) or 16:9 (Compressed).
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format
with the 16:9 (Wide) setting, you can use the
TV controls to select how the picture is
presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and
stretch options; see the instructions that came
with your TV for details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are
wider than 16:9, so even though you have a
widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a
‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen.
Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen
setting (page 35) of this player should be
set to 4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan & Scan),
depending on which you prefer.
Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen
discs are shown with black bars top
and bottom.
2
Set to 4:3 (Pan & Scan), widescreen
discs are shown with the left and right
sides cropped. Although the picture
looks larger, you don’t actually see
the whole picture.
Please note that many widescreen discs
override the player’s setting so that the disc
is shown in letter box format regardless of the
setting.
TV system setting
The default setting of this system is AUTO, and
unless you notice that the picture is distorted
when playing some discs, you should leave it
set to AUTO. If you find picture distortion with
some discs, set the TV system to match your
country or region’s system. However, this may
restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. See
the table for the kinds of discs compatible with
each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).

include a copy prevention signal, and when this type of disc is played back, stripes
etc., may appear on some sections of the picture depending on the TV. This is not a
malfunction.
• Discs respond differently to particular player functions. This may result in the
screen becoming black for a brief instant or shaking slightly when the function is
executed. These problems are largely due to differences between discs and disc
content and are not malfunctions of this player.
• DVDs and CDs use different recording methods. This is not a malfunction.
• Make sure that the CD-ROM was recorded using the ISO 9660 disc format. See
Disc compatibility table on page 47 for more on disc compatibility.
• Make sure that the DVD-ROM was recorded using the UDF bridge format. See Disc compatibility table on page 47 for more on disc compatibility.
