PRECAUTIONS
If it becomes necessary to transport or ship this unit
in the future, be sure to first remove the disc {if
present), retract the disc table to its closed position
and turn the power off. After the “OFF” indicator
stops blinking on the display, disconnect the power
cord. Then tighten the transit screw.
INSTALLING THE PLAYER
@ Place the player on a stable platform next to the television
and stereo system to be used with the player.
@ When using the player with a stereo system, your
speakers should be placed away from your television (or
TV monitor).
@ Do not place heavy objects such as a television or TV
Monitor on top of the player.
@ Do not place the player on top of your TV set or TV
monitor, Also, keep the player away from devices such
as cassette decks which are sensitive to magnetic fields.
When FM or AM stations are being received, signal noise
may be generated if the player is turned on. Turn off the
player when not in use. Also, if there is signal noise when
receiving radio stations with an indoor antenna, adjust the
position or direction of the antenna.
INSTALL THE PLAYER IN A WELL VENTILATED
PLACE AWAY FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY
Do not install the player in a location subject to direct
sunlight, or near a stove or radiator etc. This could adversely
affect the cabinet and internal components. Also avoid
installing the player in a humid or dusty location. This could
result in a malfunction or accident. Do not install near a
cookstove where the player could be affected by smoke,
steam, or heat.
AVOID SOURCES OF HEAT
Do not put the player on sources of heat, such as an
amplifier. When installing with audio components on a rack,
avoid components that generate heat, by placing the player
below such components where there is adequate ventilation
and not much dust. Avoid placing the player on surfaces
such as shaggy carpets, beds, and sofas which may block
ventilation under the player and cause damage.
CAUTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC LOADING
OPERATIONS
Since this player has an automatic loading construction,
use the button on the player or the remote control
unit for opening and closing of the disc table. To avoid
damage, be careful not to apply any force to the
moving disc table.

STRIPE PATTERNS APPEARING ON A TV
PROGRAM
Stripe patterns may appear during a TV program if the player
unit is turned on, depending on the quality of reception of
the TV station. This is neither a malfunction of the television
nor the player. {f stripes appear while watching the TV, or
when watching the TV for tong periods of time, turn the
player off.
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.
The same, symptoms of condensation may be caused during
summer, if the player is exposed to the breeze from an air
conditioner. In such cases change the location of the player.
POWER-CORD CAUTION
Handle the power cord by the piug. 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 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.
CLEANING CARE
Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. For stubborn dirt, soak
the cloth in a weak detergent solution; wring well first
and wipe. Use 2 dry cloth to wipe it dry. Do not use any
volatile agents such as benzine or paint thinner, as it may
damage the surface of the player.
Abnormal functioning of this unit may be caused by
lightning, static electricity, or other external inter-
| ference. To restore normal operation, turn the power
| off and then on again, or unplug the AC power cord
and then plug it in again.

1-Bit DLC D/A Converters
(D/A
Converters
with
Double-Step
Noise
Shaping)
D/A
converters
are
devices
for
transforming
digital
signals
into
analog
signals.
The
D/A
converter
used
in
this
player
employs
an
advanced
1-bit
conversion
system.
Compared
to
conventional
converters,
this
system
has
the
following
advantages.
@
Theoretically
no
zero
cross
distortion
is
generated,
e
The
system
is
free
of
non-linear
distortion
throughout
the
frequency
range
@
High-precision
operation
can
be
obtained
without
adjustments.
With
this
type
of
conversion,
there
is
no
loss
of
music
quality
even
at
minute
signal
levels.
Moreover,
the
noise
shaping
function
necessary
for
1-bit
conversion
is
implemented
using
a
double-step
noise
shaping
system.
This
system
carries
out
noise
shaping
once
in
the
preliminary
digital
filter
stage
and
then
again
in
the
D/A
converter
section,
thus
minimizing

noise
and
providing
extremely
high-precision
conversion.
Furthermore,
two
of
these
D/A
converters
are
used
independently
for

and
right
channels,
realizing
a
high
signal-to-noise
