PRECAUTIONS
If it becomes
necessary
to transport
or ship this unit in the
future, be sure to first remove the disc (if loaded), retract the disc
table to its closed
position
and turn the power
off. After the
"OFF" display
goes out on the display,
disconnect
the power
cord.
INSTALLING THE PLAYER
• Place the player on a stable platform
next to the television
and
stereo system to be used with the player.
.When
using
the player
with
a stereo
system,
your
speakers
should
be placed away from your television
(or TV monitor).
• Do not place heavy objects such as a television
or TV monitor
on
top of the player.
• Do not place the player on top of your TV set or TV monitor.
Also,
keep the player away from devices such as cassette decks which
are sensitive
to magnetic
fields.
When FM or AM stations
are being received,
signal noise may be
generated
if the player is turned
on. Turn off the player when not
in use. Also, ifthere
is a signal noise when receiving
radio stations
with
an indoor
antenna,
adjust
the position
or direction
of the
antenna.
INSTALL THE PLAYER IN A WELL VENTILATED PLACE
AWAY FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY
Do not install the player in a location
subject to direct sunlight,
or
near a stove or radiator, etc. This could adversely
affect the cabinet
and internal
components.
Also avoid
installing
the player
in a
humid
or dusty
location.
This could
result
in a malfunction
or
accident. Do not install near a cookstove where the player could be
affected
by smoke, steam, or heat.
AVOID SOURCES OF HEAT
Do not put the player
on sources
of heat, such as an amplifier.
When
installing
with
audio
components
on a rack,
avoid
components
that generate
heat, by placing the player below such
components
where
there
is adequate
ventilation
and not much
dust.Avoid
placing the player on surfaces such as shaggy carpets,
beds, and sofas which may block ventilation
under the player and
cause damage.
CAUTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC
LOADING
OPERATIONS
Since this player has an automatic
loading construction,
use the
button on the player or the remote control
unit for opening
and
closing
of the disc table. To avoid
damage,
be careful
not to
apply any force to the moving
disc table.
Even when the player is in the pause mode, the disc-drive
motor
is still revolving.
Since leaving the player in this condition
can
shorten the lifetime
ofthe
motor, do not leave the player in the
pause mode
for a long period
of time.
Also,
to prevent
the
damage to the screen, do not use the unit for a long period of
time under conditions
in which the screen display (monitor)
has
been displayed
characters
(for example,
power-ON
mode, CD
PLAY, PAUSE).
CAUTION WHEN INSTALLING IN A RACK HAVING A
GLASS DOOR
Be careful to install so that when the disc table is opened by remote
control it does not hit the glass door. Strong force against movement
of the disc table may cause breakdown.
Take the following
precautions
to avoid accidents!
Be careful not to catch your finger in the disc table section while
the disc table is being retracted
into the unit. Also, be careful
that children do not put their hands inside the unit while the disc
table is open. This may cause injury.
STRIPE PATTERNS APPEARING ON A TV PROGRAM
Stripe patterns
may appear during a TV program
ifthe
player unit
is turned
on, depending
on the quality
of reception
of the TV
station.
This is neither
a malfunction
of the television
nor the
player. If stripes appear while watching
TV, or when watching
TV
for a long period oftime,
turn the player off.

CONDENSATION
Moisture
will form in the operating
section of the player if the
player is brought from cool surroundings
into a warm room or if
the temperature
of the room rises suddenly. When this happens,
player's performance
will be impaired.
To prevent this, let the player stand in its new surroundings
for
about an hour before switching
it on, or make sure that the room
temperature
rises gradually.
The same
symptoms
of condensation
may be caused
during
summer,
if the
player
is exposed
to the
breeze
from
an air
conditioner.
In such cases, change the location
of the player.
POWER-CORD CAUTION
Handle the power
cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by
tugging
the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands
are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do not
place the unit, a piece of furniture,
etc., on the power cord, or pinch
the cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.
The power cords should
be routed such that they are not likely to
be stepped
on. A damaged
power cord can cause fire or give you
an electrical
shock. Check the power cord once in a while. When
you find it damaged,
ask your nearest PIONEER authorized
service
center or your dealer for a replacement.
