¶Static electricity and other external effects may cause this unit to malfunction. In this case, set the POWER switch to OFF, then switch it on again after the disc has come to a complete stop.

¶This unit cannot playback unfinalized (partial discs) CD-R or CD-RW discs.

¶This component is designed to play 12cm discs and 8cm discs with a commercially available adaptor, eccentrically shaped discs cannot be played since damage or malfunc- tion may result.

¶When using an 8cm disc with an adaptor, compared to a 12cm disc, the speed may be slower in the scratch and reverse modes etc. This component rotates at a very high speed to generate high performance, however, in the interest of safety, the speed is lowered when an 8cm disc and adaptor are used. This is NOT a malfunction.

¶The BPM value measured by the CDJ-1000 may differ from the BPM value recorded on a CD or from our DJ mixer, but this difference is a result of differences in the BPM value measurement method; not a result of a fault with the player.

The Multimedia Card (MMC) is not covered by warranty so we recommend you obey the instructions for use and periodically make back up copies.

It is not the responsibility of PIONEER if the component or MMC malfunctions due to outside interference of static electricity etc. and if data on the MMC is damaged or lost or incidental damage occurs no indemnification will be made.
