PARTS INSIDE. REFER
SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified
by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or
sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used,
use caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel. Servicing is required when
the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as power-supply cord or plug

moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped.
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.
WARNING
Before plugging in for the first time, read the
following section carefully.
The voltage of the available power supply
differs according to country or region. Be
sure that the power supply voltage of the area
where this unit will be used meets the required
voltage (e.g., 230 V or 120 V) written on the
rear panel.
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.

Guía de Operaciones
If the AC plug of this unit does not match
SW-8
the AC outlet you want to use, the plug must
(320 mm x 320 mm)
be removed and appropriate one fitted.
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on
the power supply cord of this unit should be
performed only by qualified service personnel.
If connected to an AC outlet, the cut-off plug
can cause severe electrical shock. Make
sure it is properly disposed of after removal.
The equipment should be disconnected by
removing the mains plug from the wall socket
when left unused for a long period of time (for
example, when on vacation).
CAUTION
The POWER switch on this unit will not completely
shut off all power from the AC outlet. Since the
power cord serves as the main disconnect
device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from
the AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore,
make sure the unit has been installed so that the
power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC
outlet in case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard,
the power cord should also be unplugged from
the AC outlet when left unused for a long period
of time (for example, when on vacation).
This product is for general household purposes.
Any failure due to use for other than household
purposes (such as long-term use for business
purposes in a restaurant or use in a car or ship)
and which requires repair will be charged for
even during the warranty period.
WARNING: Handling the cord on this product
or cords associated with accessories sold
with the product may expose you to chemicals
listed on proposition 65 known to the State
of California and other governmental entities
to cause cancer and birth defect or other
reproductive harm.
