CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING
Location
Install the player in a well ventilated location where
it will not be exposed to high temperature or humidity.
Do not install the player in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near to hot appliances or radiators. Excessive
heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. In-
stallation of the player in a damp or dusty environment may result
in malfunction or accident. (Also avoid installation near cookers etc.,
where the player may be exposed to smoke from oil, steam or heat.)
| Precautions regarding installation
@ Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on
heat-generating sources such as amplifiers will affect perfor-
mance.
Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.
@ Install this compact disc player as far as possible from tuners
and TV sets. A compact disc player installed in close proximity
to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the pic-
ture. Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor
antenna is used. In such a case, make use of an outdoor anten-
na, or turn off power to the compact disc player.
@ Please place this unit on a level surface.
When the player is brought into a warm room from previously cold
conditions or when the room temperature is suddenly increased,
condensation may form inside and the player may not be able to
attain its full performance. In cases like this, allow the unit to stand
for about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.
| Cleaning discs
@ The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the
disc will not directly affect the recorded signals; but depending
on the degree of contamination,
the brightness
of the light
reflected from the signal surfaces
may
be reduced,
causing
degradation of sound quality.
Always keep your discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft
cloth from the inner edge toward the outer perimeter.
Hf |f a disc becomes very dirty, wet a soft cloth in water. After
wringing it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove
any water drops with another soft dry cloth.
@ Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs.
Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile
solvents which may cause damage to the disc surface.

| Storing discs
@ Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conven-
tional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to warp;
always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding locations
with high heat or humidity, or extremely low temperatures. Avoid
leaving discs in cars and on the seats being exposed to direct
sunlight since this can be harmful.
@ Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on the
disc labels.
| Cleaning the player
To clean the front panel and unit housing, wipe with a soft, dry
cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent so-
lution, wring well, then wipe off the dirt. Also use
a dry cloth to
wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene
or thinner which are harmful to the unit.
CD lens cleaner
The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use,
but if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling, ask your
nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens cleaners for CD
players are commercially available, but special care should be ex-
ercised in their use since some may cause damage to the lens.
