OperationDetailed

•When connecting to a component bearing the Pioneer Î mark:

If you use a commercially available cord with a mini plug (no resistance) to connect this player’s CONTROL IN jack to the CONTROL OUT jack of another component bearing the Î mark, you can control the player as though it were a component in a system (system control).

•If you connect for system control, you cannot operate the player directly by pointing the remote control at it and pressing buttons. Point the remote control unit at the component (AV amplifier etc.) connected to the CONTROL OUT jack for operation.

•When controlling as a system, be sure to make connection to the amplifier using an audio cord or a video cord even when

using only digital components.
