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.

PUT BATTERIES INTO THE REMOTE CONTROL UNIT (PD-M427 only)

English

Open the lid of the battery compartment on the rear of the remote control unit, and insert the batteries ( size "AAA" (IEC R03)), taking care to align the ª and · polarities correctly.

NOTES:

÷In order to prevent battery leakage, remove the batteries when not using the remote control unit for an extended period (one month or more). If leakage occurs, carefully wipe away any battery fluid inside the compartment, and replace the batteries with new ones.

÷Do not allow books or other objects to rest on top of the remote control unit, since the buttons may be depressed, causing faster exhaustion of the batteries.

Incorrect use of batteries may cause leakage or rupture. Always be sure to follow these guidelines:

A.Always insert batteries into the battery compartment correctly matching the positive ª and negative ·polarities, as shown by the display inside the compartment.

B.Never mix new and used batteries.

C.Batteries of the same size may have different voltages, depending on brand. Do not mix different brands of batteries.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATIONS (PD-M427 only)

The remote control unit can be used within a range of about 7 meters (23 feet) from the remote sensor, and within angles of up to about 30 degrees.
