09Additional information

Switching the speaker impedance

We recommend using speakers of 8 Ω with this system, but it is possible to switch the imped- ance setting if you plan to use speakers with a 6 Ω impedance rating.

•With the receiver in standby, press 

STANDBY/ON while holding down the QUICK SETUP button.

Each time you do this, you switch between the impedance settings:

•SP 6 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are rated at 6 Ω.

•SP 8 OHM – Use this setting if your speakers are rated at 8 Ω or more.

Power cord caution

Audio section

•Input (Sensitivity/Impedance)

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 an 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.
