Power cord caution

 

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 independent service

 

company for a replacement.

Note that if you use this feature, make sure that you also have at least one set of analog audio or video jacks connected to another component for grounding purposes.
