Connecting up for analog playback & recording

Before you start, make sure that all the components are switched off and disconnected from the wall outlet.

Next, connect this unit to your amplifier/receiver using the two sets of supplied audio leads—one set for playback, the other for recording. On the rear panel of your amplifier find an unused set of inputs/outputs for a tape/md recorder (check the instruction manual that came with your amplifier if you’re unsure about which terminals to use).

Using this set up you can make recordings from any other component connected to the amplifier, via the analog inputs of this unit.

Connecting other Pioneer ë components

If you are using a Pioneer amplifier or receiver that has this feature, you can control this unit with the multi-remote controller that came with your amplifier/receiver. The advantage of this is that you can use a single remote control to operate several components. Check the instruction manual that came with your amplifier or receiver for more informa- tion on using its remote as a multi-controller.

Use a commercially available cord with a mono mini-plug at either end to connect the CONTROL OUT terminal of the amplifier/receiver to the CONTROL IN terminal of this unit.

Note: Make sure that at least one set of analog terminals is connected to the amplifier when using ëcontrol cords.

POWER-CORD CAUTION

Handle the power cord by the plug part. 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, or other object on the power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause a fire or give you an electric 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.
