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 for CD players are commercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens.

Handling video tapes

Please do not use the following kinds of video tape:

-Dusty or mouldy tape

-Tape on which liquid has been spilled

-Tape which has been broken and then repaired

-Tape which has become unwound from the spools in the cassette

•Dirty heads and very long length, thin video tape can cause problems such as uneven playback.

•When using a new video tape, fast-forward to the end, then rewind it back to the start before using.

•Avoid dropping video tapes or exposing them to severe vibration.

Storing video tapes

•After using a video tape, rewind it back to the beginning and return to its case.

•Do not store tapes:

-in excessively dusty places

-in excessively hot or humid places

-in direct sunlight

-near air-conditioners or heaters

Hints on installation

We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to come, so please bear in mind the following points when choosing a suitable location for it:

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 DVD/ VCR will be exposed to direct sunlight.

Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room where it will be exposed to excessive cigarette smoke.

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 DVD/VCR 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 unit.

Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large enough to support all four of the unit's feet.
