Precaution regarding use
Installation
÷Install the player in a level and stable location.
Do not use in shaky, unstable locations, or locations exposed to much vibration.
÷Do not impair the player’s cooling functions. Avoid placing on long- pile carpets, etc.. Also do not wrap or cover with towels or cloths when in use. Such coverings can impede the player’s cooling func- tion and result in internal damage.
÷Do not place objects on top of the player.
÷Install in a location which is not exposed to heat sources. Avoid in- stalling the player above an amplifier or other
÷If the player is installed in a rack, care must be taken to avoid internal temperature buildup. Position it so that the ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the player are not obstructed.
As a rule, install so that there is no heat from below and leave a gap of 10 cm or more at the left and right and above so that air can flow
around the device by natural convection at a room temperature of 35° C or less. If installation is necessary in any other circumstances,
ensure that the air temperature at a point 5 cm above the center of the player in a sufficiently warmed up state is no higher than 35° C. When necessary, use forced air cooling.
÷When multiple players are connected in parallel, a high surge cur- rent will be impressed on the units when external power is first turned on. Please consult your Pioneer dealer regarding ratings for the power switch to be used.
÷Do not install the player in a closed rack. An internal temperature builts up and results in internal damage.
Operating Environment
Operating environment temperature and humidity:
+5°C - +35°C ; less than 85% RH (cooling vents not blocked)
7Do Not Install in the Following Locations:
÷Locations exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light
÷Locations exposed to dust or smoke
÷Locations subject to vibration
÷Locations subject to strong
÷Near sources of heat.
÷Locations exposed to high levels of electronic noise
÷Locations subject to electrostatic noise
÷Locations exposed to high humidity, or poorly ventilated locations
÷A closed rack
Moving the Player
When transporting this player to a new location, be sure to use the packaging provided and avoid subjecting the player to vibration, shock, or dropping. During transport, protect the player from exposure to heat or water.
Before packaging the player, remove any disc loaded, since moving the player with a loaded discs may cause damage to the disc or play- er’s internal parts.
Special Precautions!
Never attempt to move the player while a disc is playing. Discs rotate at very high speeds during play, and lifting or moving the player at such times could cause damage to the disc. Also, subjecting the player to strong impact or vibration when a disc is loaded may cause damage to disc or player. Be sure the player is stopped and no disc is loaded before moving the player. Also be sure that no disc is loaded when lifting the player.
This component is built using precision optical parts. Be sure to take care to control temperature and dust inside the room where this player is installed.

Handling the discs
7Handling
÷Never play clacked, scratchesd or warped disc. This may damage the player or cause it to malfunction.
÷Do not damage or dirty the signal surface of the disc.
÷Do not affix paper and seals to the disc.
÷Too much glue will cause a malfunction. Many rental discs, particu- larly, have labels affixed to them, and use the disc after confirming that there is no glue.
7Stacking
÷Store the discs carefully. If you store discs at an angle, or stacked on top of each other, discs may become warped even when in their jackets.
÷Read the operating instructions included in discs.
7Cleaning
÷Fingerprints or other dirt on the disc may affect sound and pic- ture quality.To remove dirt or finger prints, wipe gently from the inside toward the outer edges. (Do not wipe in a circular direc- tion.)
÷Discs must not be cleaned with record cleaning sprays, or static pre- vention sprays, etc. Also do not use volatile liquids such as benzine, or thinner, etc.
÷To clean your discs, use a soft clean cloth to wipe them. If necessary, moisten a soft cloth with diluted neutral detergent to remove heavy dirt or fingerprints.
7Discs with special shapes
Discs with special shapes (heart shaped discs, hexagonal discs, etc.) cannot be played on this set.
Attempting to do so may damage the set. Do not use such discs.
Lens cleaning
The player’s pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use but if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling, contact your near- est PIONEER authorized service centre. Lens cleaners are commer- cially available but special care should be exercised in their use since some may cause damage to the lens.
Condensation
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, player’s performance will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the player is ex- posed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the
location of the player.
