loaded), and retract the disc table to its closed position.
Then the power off, and, after the “OFF” indicator
stops blinking on. the display, disconnect the power
cord.
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.

<VRB1070>
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. If stripes appear while watching the TV, or
when watching the TV for long 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 fram an air
conditioner. In such cases change the location of the player.
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 in such a way 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 regularly.
When you find it damaged, ask your nearest PIONEER
authorized service center or your dealer for a replacernent.
CLEANING CARE rn
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.
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.

With the built-in surround system, you can enjoy the surround
sound, even when only front speakers are used.
Last Memory Function
With this function, if you turn the power switch off during
playback of an LD, a playback position slightly ahead of the
last frame to be played is stored in memory (last memory).
When the power is turned back on, playback begins from
the memorized position by pressing PLAY/PAUSE.
Auto Loading and Automatic Dise Discrimination
Functions
This unit has a built-in motor-driven auto loading mechanism
which automatically opens and closes the disc table and
makes disc loading easy.
Also, once a disc is placed on the table and the table is
retracted into the player, the player automatically detects
which type of disc (LD, CD, or CDV) is loaded.
High-Speed Pulse Flow D/A Converter
Pursuing crystal clear sound to match the laser picture, this
unit adopts the high-speed pulse flow D/A converter,
previously found only in top-of-the-line component CD
players. The result: outstanding digital audio output with
high S/N ratio and fow distortion.
Multi-mode Disc table
Up to 5 CDs or CDVs can be loaded at a time. Also, an LD
can be loaded and played without removing CDs or CDVs.

CD VIDEO SYSTEM (*1)
The CD VIDEO SYSTEM is the standard name for the
“optical video disc with digital audio” system that
encompasses both LDs and CDV discs.
The following mark is the standard mark for the CD VIDEO
SYSTEM and is found on ail players and discs which conform
to the CD VIDEO SYSTEM format.
The following systems are included in the CD VIDEO
SYSTEM:
CD VIDEO
@ CDV (CD VIDEO CDV) discs
@ LaserVision Discs (CD VIDEO LDs) containing digital
sound with sub-codes
@ Compatible players which can play CDs and CDV discs
@ Compatible players which can play CDs, CDV discs, and
LDs
CD VIDEO LDs (*4)
ACD VIDEO LD is an LD with digital audio which is encoded
with sub-codes (data such as TOC and track number data,
excluding audio and video signals).
LDs (LASERDISCS)
With this unit, only play LaserDiscs which bear the following
mark.
Vlg or f bof
LASER DISC
This mark is the standard mark for LaserDiscs.
Players and discs which bear the LaserVision mark are
mutually compatible as long as they conform to the same
television system.
Two types of standard LaserDisc are available — standard
play (CAV) (*5) discs and extended play (CLV) (*3) discs —
which differ with respect to their signal recording systems.
CAV (*5) DISCS
The jackets and labels of these discs are marked with a
“Standard Play Disc CAV” or “Standard Play” indication.
Frames are recorded on these discs at a ratio of one frame
per disc revolution, and the discs are played at a fixed
rotational speed (CAV = Constant Angular Velocity) of 1,800
rpm. This system is well suited to special playback modes
such as still frame playback and multi-speed playback. One
side of a CAV disc can have a playback time of up to 30
minutes (for a 12-inch disc), which is equivalent to 54,000
frames. Each frame — from frame 1 to frame 54,000 — is
encoded with its own frame number.
* Playback tirne varies according to the contents of the
disc.
8
<VRB1070>
CLY {*3) DISCS
The jackets and labels of these discs are marked with a
“Extended Play Disc CLV" or “Extended Play” indication.
Signals are recorded on these discs at a constant linear
velocity (CLV), and the rotational speed during playback
varies from 1,800 rpm for the innermost track to 600 rprn
for the outermost track. As a result, one side of a CLV disc
can have a playback time of up to 60 minutes (for a 12-inch
disc), which is twice as long as a standard play (CAV) disc.
CLV discs are encoded with time numbers which correspond
to the elapsed play time from the beginning of the disc.
* Playback time varies according to the contents of the
disc.
LASERVISION DISCS WITH DIGITAL AUDIO (*6)
The jackets and labels of these discs bear the following
mark.
Geial digital
These are LaserDiscs which contain digital audio signals in
addition to conventional analog audio signals. This feature
allows the high image quality of LaserDiscs to be enjoyed
together with the superior quality of digital sound. The
digital and analog audio signals are recorded on the disc
using different frequency bands.
LASERVISION MULTI AUDIO DISCS WITH DIGITAL
AUDIO
The jackets and labels of these discs bear the following
mark.
digital MULTIAUDIO or Sgl2/MULTI AUDIO
These are LaserDiscs in which the recorded digital and
analog audio signals differ in content. This allows the user
to enjoy two different audio soundtracks by switching
between the digital and analog sound.
CDV (COMPACT DISC WITH VIDEO)
DISCS
These are compact discs which also contain video signals,
Of the total 25-minute playback time of a CDV disc, 20
minutes is encoded with conventional CD digital audio
signals (the “audio part”). The remaining 5 minutes is
encoded with both video and digital audio signals (the “video
part”).

CARE OF DISCS
How to hoid discs
When loading or removing discs, try not to touch their
playing surfaces.
OQ ®
Cleaning
Fingerprints or other dirt on the disc may affect sound and
picture quality.

Teturn it to its jacket. Then store it standing upright away
from heat and humidity.
@ 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 car,
which may become excessively hot.
if an LD disc is warped...
ff an LD disc is warped, put the disc into its protective
envelope, and then place it between two flat plates of glass.
Then place heavy books on top of the plates so that
approximately 4 to 5 kgs (10 lbs) is applied. Leave the disc
