Software Update
Use this procedure to update the receiver’s 
software and check the version. There are two 
ways to update: via the Internet and via a USB 
memory device.
Updating via the Internet is performed by 
accessing the file server from the receiver and 
downloading the file. This procedure is only pos-
sible if the receiver is connected to the Internet.
Updating via a USB memory device is per-
formed by downloading the update file from a 
computer, reading this file onto a USB memory 
device then inserting this USB memory device 
into the USB port on the receiver’s front panel. 
With this procedure, the USB memory device 
containing the update file must first be inserted 
into the USB port on the receiver’s front panel.
!  If an update file is provided on the Pioneer 
website, download it onto your computer. 
When downloading an update file from the 
Pioneer website onto your computer, the file 
will be in ZIP format. Unzip the ZIP file before 
saving it on the USB memory device. If there 
are any old downloaded files or downloaded 
files for other models on the USB memory 
device, delete them.
