Before making or changing the connections,
switch off the power switch and disconnect
the power cord from the AC outlet. This pre-
caution should also be taken when changing
the IN & OUT LEVEL switch.
÷
When connections are made to the phone jack inputs and a
monaural signal cord is connected to the L (MONO) termi-
nal, inputs can be made to both the L and R channels.
÷
After all other connections are made, connect the power cord
to a household wall outlet or to the auxiliary AC power take-
off on your amplifier.
÷
Make sure plugs are fully inserted into the jacks and wall
outlet.

Cleaning the unit
BASIC CONNECTIONS
1. Connecting the SEND/RETURN Terminals
on the DJ Mixer (on DJ mixer provided
with SEND and RETURN terminals)
÷
Make connections using cables with 1/4-inch/6.3 mm in diam-
eter phone plugs.
÷
Set the DJ mixer so that the SEND and RETURN terminals can
be used. (Make sure that the EFFECT SELECTOR, CH SELEC-
TOR and EFFECT ON/OFF on the DJM-500 are correctly set).
CAUTION: Do not make any connections that may create
signal loops as this will cause circuit oscillations
which could damage the speakers.
Example of connections that must not be performed.
¶
Do not connect the output of the DJ Mixer to the input ter-
minal of the Effector and the output of the Effector to the
input terminal of the same mixer.
¶
Do not connect the SEND output of the DJM-500 to the in-
put terminal of the Effector and the output of the Effector to
the input terminal of the DJM-500 (except for the RETURN
terminal).
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 a 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.
