Troubleshooting
! Incorrect operation is often mistaken for trouble or malfunction. If you think that there is something wrong with this component, check the points below. Sometimes
the trouble may lie in another component. Inspect the other components and electrical appliances being used. If the trouble cannot be rectified after checking the
items below, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.
! The CDJ-2000 may not operate properly due to such external causes as static electricity. If this happens, normal operation can sometimes be restored by turning the
power off, waiting for the disc to stop completely, then turning the power back on.
!
Non-finalized (partial discs) CD-R/ -RW, DVD-R/ -RW, DVD+R/ +RW and DVD±R dual layer discs cannot be played on the CDJ-2000.
! Irregularly shaped discs other than standard 12 cm discs cannot be played on the CDJ-2000 (doing so will lead to damage or accidents).
! The BPM measured by the CDJ-2000 may differ from the BPM indicated on the disc or that of a Pioneer DJ mixer, etc. This is due to the different methods used for
measuring the BPM, and is not a malfunction.
