Taking care of your player and

discs

General

Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole
and edge.
When you're not using a disc, return it to its
case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in
excessively cold, humid, or hot environments
(including under direct sunlight).
Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do
not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-
tipped writing instrument to write on the disc.
Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as
these can cause the disc to warp slightly
during playback causing distortion in the
picture and/or sound.

Damaged and shaped discs

Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or
otherwise damaged discs as they may damage
the player.
This player is designed to be used only with
conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use
shaped discs. Pioneer disclaims all liability
arising in connection with the use of shaped
discs.

Cleaning discs

Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect
playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry
cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to
the outside edge as shown below.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or
a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit
to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use
benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents,
including products designed for cleaning vinyl
records.

Cleaning the unit’s exterior

Unplug the unit before cleaning.
Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the
surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth
dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or
six times with water and wrung out well, then
wipe again with a dry cloth.
Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never
use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or
other chemicals on or near this unit.
If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning
cloth, read the instructions carefully before
use. These cloths may leave smear marks on
half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens,
finish with a dry cloth.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty
in normal use, but if for some reason it should
malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your
nearest Pioneer-authorized service center. We
do not recommend using commercially
available lens cleaners for CD players.
