INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Install the unit in a well ventilated location where it
will not be exposed to high temperature or humidity.
Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near hot appliances or radiators. Excessive
heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal compo-
nents. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty environment
may also result in a malfunction or an accident. (Avoid instal-
lation near cookers etc., where the unit may be exposed to oily
smoke, steam or heat.)
Do not install the unit on a tottered stand, nor on an unstable
or inclined surface.
VENTILATION
÷
When installing this unit, make sure to leave space around
the unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at least 60
cm at top, 10 cm at 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 internal tem-
perature to rise, which may lead to breakdown or fire
hazard.
MAINTENANCE OF EXTERNAL SUR-
FACES
÷
Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt.
÷
When the surfaces are dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped
in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with
water, and wrung out well, and then wipe again with a dry
cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners.
÷
Never use thinners, benzine, insecticide sprays or other
chemicals on or near this unit, since these will corrode the
surfaces.
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.

Advanced Direct Energy MOS Power Amp
Pioneer incorporates highest quality amp circuitry featur-
ing Advanced Direct Energy MOS FET devices which can
achieve higher performance. Together with Pioneer’s origi-
nal Wide Range Linear Circuit technology they reduce
power consumption while maintaining the power output of
current models.
In terms of performance, this technology contributes to flat
damping factor characteristics across the audio spectrum.
It also allows a wide range and especially ultra␣ high fre-
quencies to be reproduced more accurately and improves
power linearity.
