About condensation
If the player is moved suddenly from a cold place into
a warm room (in winter, for example) or if the tempera-
ture in the room in which the player is installed rises
suddenly due to a heater, etc., water droplets (conden-
sation) may form inside (on operating parts and the
lens). When condensation is present, the player will not
operate properly and playback is not possible. Let the
player stand at room temperature for 1 or 2 hours with
the power turned on (the time depends on the extent
of condensation). The water droplets will dissipate and
playback will become possible. Condensation can also
occur in the summer if the player is exposed to the
direct wind from an air-conditioner. If this happens,
move the player to a different place.
Cleaning the product
Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when
cleaning the player.
Clean the player using a soft cloth. For tough dirt,
apply some neutral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts
water to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off
the dirt, then wipe again with a soft, dry cloth.
Alcohol, thinner, benzene, insecticides, etc., could
cause the print or paint to peel off. Also, leaving rub-
ber or vinyl products in contact with the player for
long periods of time could mar the cabinet.
When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read
the cautions included with the wipes carefully.
Caution for when the unit is
installed in a rack with a glass
door
Do not press
OPEN/CLOSE
on the remote control to
open the disc tray while the glass door is closed. The
door will hamper the movement of the disc tray, and the
unit could be damaged.
Cleaning the lens
The player’s lens should not become dirty in normal
use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due
to dust or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer authorized
service center. Although lens cleaners for players are
commercially available, we advise against using them
since some may damage the lens.

Handling discs
Storing
Always place discs in their cases and store them ver-
tically, avoiding hot, humid places, places exposed
to direct sunlight and extremely cold places.
Be sure to read the cautions included with the disc.
Cleaning discs
Discs may not play if there are fingerprints or dust
on them. In this case, use a cleaning cloth, etc., to
gently wipe the disc from the inside towards the
outside. Do not use dirty cleaning cloths.
Do not use benzene, thinner or other volatile
chemicals. Also do not use record spray or antistatic
agents.
For tough dirt, apply some water to a soft cloth,
wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, then wipe off
the moisture with a dry cloth.
Do not use damaged (cracked or warped) discs.
Do not let the signal surface of discs get scratched
or dirty.
Do not place two discs in the disc tray, one on top of
the other.
Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to discs.
Doing so could warp discs, making it impossible
to play them. Also note that rental discs often have
labels attached to them, and the label’s glue may
have oozed out. Check that there is no glue around
the edges of such labels before using rented discs.
About specially shaped discs
Specially shaped discs (heart-shaped, hexagonal, etc.)
cannot be played on this player. Do not attempt to play
such discs, as they could damage the player.
