Plugging in the receiver

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

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.

•Do not use any power cord other than the one supplied with this unit.

•Do not use the supplied power cord for any purpose other than that described below.

•The receiver should be disconnected by removing the mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular use (for example, when on vacation).

1Plug the supplied power cord into the AC IN socket on the back of the receiver.

About the AC outlet

Power supplied through this outlet is turned on and off by the receiver's OFF ON and STANDBY/ON buttons. Total electrical power consumption of connected equipment should not exceed 100 W.

Caution

•Do not connect a TV set, monitor, heater, or similar appliance to this unit's AC outlet.

•Do not connect appliances with high power consumption to the AC outlet in order to avoid overheating and fire risk. This can also cause the receiver to malfunction.

•Since a subwoofer can exceed the 100W maximum when playing sources at high volumes, it is best not to connect a subwoofer to the AC outlet.
