Switching the AM frequency interval

As its default setting, the tuner jumps in steps of 10kHz when tuning in AM stations. If you find that this is unsuitable in your area (if you can’t tune into stations successfully), you can change the tuning interval to 9kHz for AM. Here’s how to switch the setting.

3Press the 2 or 3 button until you see AM

STEP in the display.

4Use the 5 and ∞ buttons to select 9kHz or 10kHz.

• When set to 9kHz, the FM tuning interval becomes 50kHz. This should not affect tuning into FM stations.

Taking care of your system

To clean this unit, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution made by diluting one part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well, then wipe off the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene and thinner which may damage the surfaces.

Disc lens cleaner

The disc pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dirt or dust, 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.

Taking care of your discs

When holding discs, take care not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by the center hole and edge. Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback performance. Take care also not to scratch the label side of the disc. Although not as fragile as the recorded side, scratches can still result in a disc becoming unusable.

Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as shown on the next page. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD or DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning vinyl records.

•Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using straight strokes.

•Don’t wipe the disc surface using circular strokes.
