Hints on installation

We want you to enjoy using this unit for years
to come, so please bear in mind the following
points when choosing a suitable location for
it:
Do...
Use in a well-ventilated room.

as a table, shelf or stereo rack.
Don't...
Use in a place exposed to high

En
Erase-protect tab (For side A)
Place directly on top of an amplifier, or
other component in your stereo system
that becomes hot in use.
Use near a television or monitor as you
may experience interference—especially
if the television uses an indoor antenna.
Use in a kitchen or other room where the
player may be exposed to smoke or steam.
Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with
cloth—this may prevent proper cooling of
the unit.
Place on an unstable surface, or one that
is not large enough to support all four of
the unit's feet.

Cleaning the pickup lens

The DVD player's lens should not become
dirty in normal use, but if for some reason it
should malfunction due to dust or dirt,
consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized
service center. Although lens cleaners for CD
players are commercially available, we do not
recommend using them since some may
damage the lens.

Problems with condensation

Condensation may form inside the player if it
is brought into a warm room from outside, or
if the temperature of the room rises quickly.
Although the condensation won't damage the
player, it may temporarily impair its
performance. For this reason you should
leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature
for about an hour before switching on and
using.
