CAUTION:
TO PREVENT THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CLEANING — Unplug this product from the wall outlet
before cleaning. The product should be cleaned only
with a polishing cloth or a soft dry cloth. Never clean
with furniture wax, benzine, insecticides or other
volatile liquids since they may corrode the cabinet.
ATTACHMENTS — Do not use attachments not
recommended by the product manufacturer as they
may cause hazards.
WATER AND MOISTURE — Do not use this product
near water — for example, near a bathtub, wash
bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement;
or near a swimming pool; and the like.
ACCESSORIES — Do not place this product on an
unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The
product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or
adult, and serious damage to the product. Use only
with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with
the product. Any mounting of the product should
follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should
use a mounting accessory recommended by the
manufacturer.
CART — A product and cart combination should be
moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and
uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart
combination to overturn.
VENTILATION — Slots and openings in the cabinet are
provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable
operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must not be
blocked or covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug,
or other similar surface. This product should not be
placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or
rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the
manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.
POWER SOURCES — This product should be operated
only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supply to your home, consult your product
dealer or local power company.
LOCATION – The appliance should be installed in a
stable location.
NONUSE PERIODS – The power cord of the appliance
should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION
If this product is equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than
the other), it will fit into the outlet only one way. This
is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
If this product is equipped with a three-wire
grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding)
pin, it will only fit into a grounding type power outlet.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding type plug.
POWER-CORD PROTECTION — Power-supply cords
should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them, paying particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the product.
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING — If an outside
antenna or cable system is connected to the product,
be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so
as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information
with regard to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and
requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure
A.
LIGHTNING — For added protection for this product
during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended
and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from
the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable
system. This will prevent damage to the product
due to lightning and power-line surges.
POWER LINES — An outside antenna system should
not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines
or other electric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care
should be taken to keep from touching such power
lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
OVERLOADING — Do not overload wall outlets,
extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles
as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY — Never push objects of
any kind into this product through openings as they
may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out
parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
SERVICING — Do not attempt to service this product
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE — Unplug this product
from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into
the product.
If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls
that are covered by the operating instructions as an
improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the product to its
normal operation.
If the product has been dropped or damaged in any
way.
When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance — this indicates a need for service.
REPLACEMENT PARTS — When replacement parts
are required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or
have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.
SAFETY CHECK — Upon completion of any service or
repairs to this product, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the product
is in proper operating condition.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING — The product should
not be mounted to a wall or ceiling.
HEAT — The product should be situated away from heat
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or
other products (including amplifiers) that produce
heat.

Install the unit away from equipment that may be affected
by magnetism, such as a cassette deck.
7 CAUTION: WHEN PLACING THE UNIT
IN A STEREO RACK WITH GLASS
DOORS
Be sure there is ample space between the unit and the
glass doors when opening the disc table using the remote
control. If the disc table opens against strong resistance,
such as a closed glass door, damage to the unit may result.
7 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.
Condensation may also form during the summer if the player
is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases,
change the location of the player.
7 AVOID INSTALLING IN A PLACE THAT
IS:
÷
÷
÷
÷
÷
÷

Exposed to humidity or where ventilation is poor
Extremely hot or cold
Exposed to vibration
Exposed to dust
Exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat (for example, a
kitchen)
7 DO NOT PLACE AN OBJECT ON TOP
7 SWITCH POWER OFF WHEN NOT
USING THE UNIT
Depending on the strength of the TV or radio broadcast signal,
having the TV or radio ON while power to the unit is ON may
result in stripes on the TV screen or noise. However, this is

Downloaded From Disc-Player.com Pioneer Manuals
66
For Proper and Long Use
When the DVD player's audio output is connected to a TV, VCR,
or other component's audio input, excessively high signal input from a MIC when enjoying karaoke may result in distortion
and other adverse effects. If this happens, turn MIC volume
down, or switch the Attenuator switch on the rear of the player
ON. (See P.62)
CLEANING CARE
CARE OF DISCS
How to hold discs
When loading or removing discs, try not to touch their playing surfaces.
Gently wipe from the
inside toward the outer edge.
Discs must not be cleaned with record cleaning sprays, or static
prevention sprays, etc. Also do not use volatile liquids such as benzine,
or thinner, etc.
Notes on using the optional
optical cable
÷ Do not route cords around sharp angles. When storing,
wind the cords so that they have a diameter of at least 15
cm (6 in.).
÷ When connecting, push all the way into the terminal.
÷ Do not use cords with a length of over 3m (10 ft.).
÷ If moisture or dust has collected on the plug, wipe it with
a soft cloth before connecting.
Karaoke
Operation
Do not wipe in a circular
direction
(Concentric scratches in the disc
groove tend to cause noise.)
The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal
use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling,
contact your nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens
cleaners are commercially available, but special care should
be exercised in their use since some may cause damage to
the lens.
Detailed
Operation
To clean your discs, use a soft clean cloth to wipe them. If necessary,
moisten a soft cloth with diluted neutral detergent to remove heavy
dirt or fingerprints.
Lens cleaner
Basic
Operation
Cleaning
Fingerprints or other dirt on the disc may affect sound and picture
quality.
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. For stubborn dirt, soak the
cloth in a weak detergent solution; wring well first and wipe.
Use a dry cloth to wipe it dry. Do not use any volatile agents
such as benzine or paint thinner, as they may damage the
surface of the player.
NEVER PLAY CRACKED OR WARPED DISCS.
7 The disc revolves in the player at high speed when it is played.
Never play a cracked, scratched or warped disc. This may damage
the player or cause it to malfunction.
÷ Store discs carefully. If you store discs at an angle, or stacked on
top of each other, discs may become warped even when in their
jackets.
÷ Do not leave discs in locations such as the seat of a car, which
may become excessively hot.
This product is designed for use with conventional, fully
circular CD's only.
Use of shaped CD's is not recommended for this product.
Pioneer disclaims all liability aring in connection with the use
of shaped CD's.
POWER-CORD CAUTION

TOC
Dolby digital (AC-3)*
Dolby Digital(AC-3) delivers up to 5.1 channels of discrete multichannel audio. This is the same system that is used for
surround sound in Dolby Digital equipped movie theaters.
TOC (Table Of Contents) information is data other than audio
signal data, recorded at the beginning of a disc. As the name
implies, it’s like the list of contents in a book, with information
such as the number of songs and playback time.
DOLBY
D I G I T A L
For DVD discs, the digital output PCM/Ÿ jack (coaxial or optical)
must be connected to the amplifier or processor’s digital input
AC-3/PCM jack.
PCM
PCM stands for Pulse Code Modulation and is digital audio.
The digital audio of CD or DVD discs is PCM.
DTS
DTS stands for Digital Theater System. DTS is a surround
system different to the Dolby Digital (AC-3) system. In order
to enjoy the benefits of DTS discs, the digital output jack (either
coaxial or optical) of this player needs to be connected to the
DTS input jack of an amplifier or processor.
Video CDs
These discs provide MD quality sound, and VHS quality video
images. Thanks to MPEG1, the digital signal compression
system, a single disc provides up to 74 minutes of continuous
digital audio and video. There are also Video CDs with Playback
Control (PBC) that let you select playback of desired scenes
using menus, and view still images.
Playback Control (PBC)
This refers to signals recorded on a Video CD (Version 2.0)
enabling playback control.
You can use menus recorded on discs with PBC for easy,
interactive search for desired scenes, and playback.
You can also enjoy viewing high-resolution/standard resolution
still images.
High-resolution images
MPEG
Short for Moving Picture Experts Group. This is an international
standard for compression of moving images. On some DVDs
digital audio has been compressed and recorded in this format.
Title number
Title numbers refer to titles of movies etc. As DVD discs have
a large capacity, many movies can be recorded on one disc.
For example, when 3 different movies are recorded on a disc,
they are divided into TITLE 1, TITLE 2 and TITLE 3. Playback
can be operated by selecting the title number.
Chapter number
Chapter numbers are the numbers assigned to sections on a
title of the disc, similar to chapters in a book. If the disc includes
these numbers, you can locate the section you want very
quickly using chapter search and other functions.
If the high-resolution still images are recorded on the Video
CD, you can enjoy viewing them with four times the resolution
of moving images.
Multi-angle
When you watch regular TV programs you are watching the
image filmed through the TV camera. Because of this the
picture is displayed on your TV from the view point of the TV
camera’s position. In a TV studio the image is filmed by many
cameras at the same time, and one of those images is selected
by the program director and transmitted to your TV. If all the
filmed images were transmitted to your TV you would be able
to select the camera image you want. Some DVD discs are
recorded with the angles of all camera’s used for filming and
these can be selected using this player. These types of discs
are called multi-angle discs.
Aspect
Time number
The time number is the playback lapse time of a title in the
disc from its beginning. The scene you want to locate can be
searched for with the time number using the time number
function etc..

Want You
LISTENING
For A Lifetime
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just
purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time
to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your
equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries
Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most
out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the
sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or
distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive
hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level”
adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can
actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
÷ Start your volume control at a low setting.
÷ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and
clearly, and without distortion.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of
fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend
you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound
levels is included for your protection.
