Installing the Amplifier
Ventilation
• When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around the unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at
least 60 cm at the top, 10 cm at the rear, and 30 cm at each side). If not enough space is provided between
the unit and walls or other equipment, heat will build up inside, interfering with performance or causing
malfunctions.
• Do not place on a thick carpet, bed, sofa or fabric having a thick pile. Do not cover with fabric or other
covering.
Anything that blocks ventilation will cause the internal temperature to rise, which may lead to breakdown or
fire hazard.
Opening the Front Panel
To open the front panel push gently on the lower third of the panel with your finger.
Before You Start
The PIONEER SR System: Operating other PIONEER components
Connecting an optional control cord allows you to operate other PIONEER components simply by pointing the
amplifier’s remote control at the remote sensor on the front panel of the amplifier. The amplifier then sends the
remote control signals to the other devices via the CONTROL OUT terminal.
• You can also control PIONEER components (and those made by other manufacturers) by pointing the
receiver's remote control directly at the respective component. This type of operation does not re-
quire control cords. All you have to do is recall the appropriate the stored settings (see p. 52).
• If you use a remote control hooked up via the CONTROL IN jack with a control cord, you won't be able
to use this unit's remote control.
