PRECAUTIONS
If it becomes necessary to transport or ship this unit
in the future, be sure to first remove the disc (if
loaded), and retract the disc table to its closed position
and turn the power off. After the "OFF" display goes
out on the display, disconnect the power cord.
INSTALLING THE PLAYER
Place the player on a stable platform next to the television
and stereo system to be used with the player.
When using the player with a stereo system you rspeakers
should be placed away from your television (orTV monitor).
Do not place heavy objects such as a television or TV
monitor on top of the player.
Do not place the player on top of your TV set or TV
monitor. Also, keep the player away from devices such
as cassette decks which are sensitive to magnetic fields.
Take the following precautions to avoid accidentst
Be careful not to catch your finger in the disc table
section while the disc table is being retracted into the
unit. Also, be careful that children do not put their
hands into the inside of the unit while the disc table
is open. This may cause injury.
STRIPE PATTERNS APPEARING ON A TV
PROGRAM
Stripe patterns may appear during a TV program if the player
unit is turned on, depending on the quality of reception of
the TV station. This is neither a malfunction of the television
nor the player. If stripes appear while watching the TV, or
when watching the TV for long periods of time, turn the
player off.
When FM or AM stations are being received, signal noise
may be generated if the player is turned on. Turn off the
player when not in use. Also, if there is signal noise when
receiving radio stations with an indoor antenna, adjust the
position or direction of the antenna.
INSTALL THE PLAYER IN A WELL VENTILATED
PLACE AWAY FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY
Do not install the player in a location subject to direct sunlight,
or near a stove or radiator etc. This could adversely affect the
cabinet and internal components. Also avoid installing the
player in a humid or dusty location. This could result in a
malfunction or accident. Do not install near a cookstove
where the player could be affected by smoke, steam, or heat.
AVOID SOURCES OF HEAT
Do not put the player on sources of heat, such as an
amplifier. When installing with audio components on a rack,
avoid components that generate heat, by placing the player
below such components where there is adequate ventilation
and not much dust. Avoid placing the player on surfaces
such as shaggy carpets, beds, and sofas which may block
ventilation under the player and cause damage.
CAUTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC LOADING
OPERATIONS
Since this player has an automatic loading construction,
use the button on the player or the remote control unit
for opening and closing of the disc table. To avoid
damage, be careful not to apply any force to the moving
disc table.
Even when the player is in the pause mode, the disc-drive
motor is still revolving. Since leaving the player in this condition
can shorten the lifetime of the motor, do not leave the player
in the pause mode for long periods of time. Also, to prevent the
damage to the screen, do not use the unit for long periods of
time under conditions in which the screen display (monitor) has
been displayed characters (for example, power-ON mode, CD
PLAY, PAUSE)
CONDENSATION
Moisture will form in the operating section of the player
if the player is brought from cool surroundings into a
warm room or if the temperature of the room rises
suddenly. When this happens, player's performance will
be impaired.
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new
surroundings for about an hour before switching it on,
or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.
The same, symptoms of condensation may be caused during
summer, if the player is exposed to the breeze from an air
conditioner. In such cases change the location of the player.
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 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 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.
