Plugging in the receiver

Only plug in after you have connected all your components to this receiver, including the speakers.

•Plug the AC power cord into a convenient AC power outlet.

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 cables. 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. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent service company for a replacement.

•The receiver should be disconnected by removing the mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular use, e.g., when on vacation.

•Make sure the blue  STANDBY/ON light has gone out before unplugging.

Note

1 Do not use any antennas other than the supplied AM loop antenna.
