Do not install in the following locations
÷Location exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial
light
÷Location exposed to high humidity, or poorly ventilated
location
VENTILATION: When installing this unit, make sure to

These Operating Instructions are written for the XR-NM1 stereo CD cassette deck receiver and -NM1/ -NM5-LR speaker system.
Thank you for buying this Pioneer product.
Please read through these operating instructions so you will know how to operate your model properly. After you have finished
reading the instructions, put them away in a safe place for future reference.
In some countries or regions, the shape of the power plug and power outlet may sometimes differ from that shown in the explana-
tory drawings. However, the method of connecting and operating the unit is the same.
Location
Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not be
exposed to high temperatures or humidity.
Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can
adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installa-
tion of the unit in a damp or dusty environment may also result
in a malfunction or an accident (avoid installation near cookers,
etc., where the unit may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or
heat).
Precautions regarding installation
¶Placing and using the unit for long periods on heat-
generating sources will affect performance. Avoid placing the
unit on heat-generating sources.
¶Install the unit as far away as possible from your TV.
Installation in close proximity to such equipment may cause
noise or degradation of the picture.
¶uch noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor
antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor
antenna, or turn off the power to the unit.
¶Please place this unit on a level surface.

compartment
2 Insert two AA/R6P batteries
Take care to put it in the right way up, matching ª
and ·as shown below.
3 Close the battery compartment, and your
remote is ready for use
• Make sure not to damage the controller by inserting
the battery holder incorrectly (check the diagram
above).
• Make sure that the plus and minus sides of the
battery match the indications on the battery
compartment.
• Remove batteries from equipment that isn’t going to
be used for a month or more.
• When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental regulations or environmental public
instruction’s rules that apply in your country or area.

Discs compatible with this system
Any disc that displays the following logo should play in
this system. Other discs (such as CD-ROMs) will not play
in this unit.
Single sided / Single layer. 12 cm or 8cm (5" or 3")
discs. Linear PCM digital audio.
Finding a suitable location
We want you to enjoy using your new stereo system for
years to come, so please bear in mind the following
points when choosing a suitable location for the system
components and speakers:
Do
✔Use in a well-ventilated room.
✔Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table,
shelf or stereo rack.
Don’t
✗Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or
humidity, including near radiators and other heat-
generating appliances.
✗Place on a window sill or other place where any of
the components or speakers will be exposed to direct
sunlight.
✗Use in an excessively dusty or damp environment.
✗Place directly on top of any appliance which 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 unit may
be exposed to smoke or steam.
✗Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large
enough to support all four of the unit’s feet, or the
whole footprint of each speaker.
✗Block the cooling vents on the rear and top side of
the unit. Don’t cover the unit with cloth, or use on
thick carpet, etc.
✗Put objects above or on top of the system or speakers.
Avoiding condensation problems
Condensation may form inside the unit 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 unit, 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.
Proper ventilation for the unit
When installing, make sure to leave space around the
unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at least
30 cm at top, 30 cm at
rear, and 30 cm at
each side). If there
isn’t enough space
between the unit and
walls or other
equipment, heat will
build up inside,
interfering with
performance or
causing malfunctions.
For this reason, don’t place the unit on a thick carpet,
bed, sofa, or a pile of fabric. Also make sure not to cover
the unit with fabric or any other covering. Anything that
blocks ventilation will cause internal temperature to
rise, which may lead to breakdown or a fire hazard.
•Remotes for different devices can interfere with each
other. Avoid using remotes for other equipment
located nearby this unit.
•Replace the battery when you notice a fall off in the
operating range of the remote.

123
Connecting the speakers
Use the supplied speaker cords to connect the speakers to
the amplifier. To get the best sound from the system, it’s
important that you connect the two strands of speaker
cord for each speaker to the correct speaker terminal.
The terminals and cords are color-coded to help you
match them up.
Make sure that the bare speaker wires cannot touch each
other, or come into contact with other metal parts once
the unit is switched on.
To connect a speaker cord to a
terminal
1 Pull off the protective covers on the ends
of each cord, then twist the exposed wire
strands together
2 Push the tab to open, then insert the
twisted wire fully into the terminal
Insert the wire with the blue stripe into the red (ª)
terminal and the other wire into the black (·)
terminal.
3 Release the tab to secure the speaker
cord
Tug the wire lightly to make sure it’s secure.

Note
If you plan to mount the AM antenna to a wall or other
surface, secure the stand with screws (fig C) before
clipping the loop to the stand. Make sure the reception is
clear.
5 Place the AM antenna on a flat surface
and point in the direction giving the best
reception
Avoid placing near computers, television sets or other
electrical appliances and do not let it come into contact
with metal objects.
6 Connect the FM wire antenna in the same
way as the AM loop antenna
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a
wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled
up. You can use thumbtacks to hold the antenna arms
extended widely.
The supplied FM antenna is a simple means of receiving
FM stations; using a dedicated, outdoor FM antenna will
usually give you better reception and sound quality. See
Connecting external antennas on the next page for
connection details.
The signal ground (H) is designed to reduce noise
that occurs when an antenna is connected. It is not an
electrical safety ground.
1 Pull off the protective shields of both AM
antenna wires
2 Push open the tabs, then insert one wire
fully into each terminal
3 Release the tabs to secure the AM
antenna wires
4 Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached
stand
To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction
indicated by the arrow (fig A) then clip the loop onto
the stand (fig B).
Connecting the radio antennas
Connecting the supplied antennas will allow you to
listen to both AM and FM radio broadcasts. If you find
that reception quality is poor, an outdoor antenna
should give you better sound quality—see Connecting
external antennas below for more on how to do this.
Before making or changing antenna connections, make
sure that the power is switched off and the unit
disconnected from the wall power outlet.
