aerosol or alcohol-based cleaning products.

Water or Moisture – Avoid operating or locating this drive near water or other sources of fluid.

Installation – Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall and

be seriously damaged.

Ventilation – Slots and openings in the chassis are for cooling and proper operation of the unit. Do NOT

block or cover the openings. Do NOT place this unit on a bed, rug, etc. as this can block the openings.

This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation unless properly ventilated.

Operation – Avoid moving, lifting or reorienting this drive while a disc is rotating inside.

Environment – Avoid installing this drive in a location with exposure to large quantities of dust, high

temperatures, high humidity, or subject to excessive vibrations or shocks.

Power Sources – Operate this drive only from the recommended power sources. If you are unsure of the

power source, consult an authorized Pioneer representative.

Power-Cord Protection – When unplugging the unit, pull on the plug – not on the cord. Do not handle

the cord or plug with wet hands; doing so could cause an electric short or shock. Do not allow anything

to pinch or rest on the power cord and do not place in a walkway.

Power – Turn OFF the system before installing this or any other hardware device.

Overloading – Avoid connecting too many devices to a single wall socket or power source as this can

cause fires or short circuits.

Object & Liquid Entry – Never push inappropriate objects in to the device. Avoid spilling any liquids in

to or on the outside of the drive.

Condensation – Moisture can form in the operating section of the product if the drive is taken from cool

surroundings to a room with a warmer temperature. Let the drive stand for one to two hours in the new

location before turning it ON.

Servicing – Opening or removing the cover exposes you to possible electrical shock or other danger.

Contact a Pioneer authorized service representative for repairing this drive (refer to the enclosed Service

& Support Card).

Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the unit and refer servicing to qualified service personnel in the

following situations:

• When the power cord, plug, or chassis is damaged.

• If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the video product.

• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

• If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust only

those controls that are covered by the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other

controls may result in damage and can require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore

the unit to its normal operation.

• When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance – this indicates a need for service.

About DualDisc Playback – DualDisc is a two-sided disc with one side containing DVD video/audio/etc.

content and the opposite side containing non-DVD content such as digital audio material. The non-DVD

audio side is not compliant with the CD Audio Specification; therefore, may not play. The DVD side of

DualDisc media plays in this unit. For more details about the DualDisc specification, please refer to the

disc manufacturer or your retailer.

Note

Some discs may not be playable due to different recording formats or the physical condition of the

disc at the time of recording or playback.

• Avoid touching or scratching the signal surface (shiny side) of the

disc.

• Hold the disc by the edges or by the center hold and one edge.

• Do not affix paper or labels to the disc.

• Discard warped or cracked discs as they may cause damage to

the drive.

• Avoid specially shaped discs such as hearts or polygons.

• Remove dust or lint from the disc with a soft cloth by wiping from

the inside to the outside edge rather than in a circular motion.

• Do not use record-cleaning or anti-static agents as the solutions

may cause damage to a disc.

Always be sure to store your discs in proper disc storage cases

when not in use, and always be sure to check for dirt or dust

on discs (especially on the recording side) before use.
