Using and taking care of discs
DVD Video regions
All DVD Video discs carry a region mark that
indicates which region(s) of the world the disc
is compatible with. Your DVD system also has
a region mark (on the rear panel). Discs from
incompatible regions will not play in this
player. Discs marked
ALL
play in any player.
Handling discs
Hold the disc by its edges when handling so as
not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on
either side of the disc. Damaged or dirty discs
can affect playback performance.
If a disc becomes marked with fingerprints,
dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth.
Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using
straight strokes. Don’t wipe the disc surface
with circular strokes.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to
clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use
benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents such
as those designed for cleaning vinyl records.
Storing discs
Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid,
or hot environments (including under direct
sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers onto
the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other
sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could
all damage the disc.
Discs to avoid
Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If a
disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise
damaged, don't risk using it in your player—
you could end up damaging the unit.
This unit is designed for use with conventional,
fully circular discs only. Pioneer disclaims all
liability arising in connection with the use of
shaped discs.
Using cassette tapes
The tape of a cassette is quite easily damaged
and loose tape can jam in the tape deck
mechanism. If the tape has become unwound,
use a pen or pencil to wind it back on to the
spool.
When not using cassettes, always store in the
case. Store cassettes away from magnetic
fields, excessive heat, humidity, dust or oil.
Before recording on a tape, wind the tape on
past the leader tape (about the first 3 or 4
seconds of each side).
Tapes you should avoid
Since tapes longer than 90 minutes are so thin,
they are more susceptible to jamming in the
tape deck mechanism and other trouble such
as irregular winding. Avoid using cassette
tapes longer than 90 minutes.
Protecting your recordings
You can protect an important recording
against accidental erasure by breaking the
erase-protect tab(s) with a small screwdriver.
