General
• Use the unit on a firm, level surface free from vibration.
• Keep the unit away from direct sunlight, strong magnetic
fields, excessive dust, humidity and electronic/electrical
equipment (home computers, facsimiles, etc.) which
generate electrical noise.
• Do not place anything on top of the unit.
• Do not expose the unit to moisture, to temperatures
higher than 60 °C (140 °F) or to extremely low
temperatures.
• If your system does not work properly, disconnect the AC
power lead from the wall socket. Plug the AC power lead
back in, and then turn on your system.
• In case of an electrical storm, unplug the unit for safety.
• Hold the AC power plug by the head when removing it
from the wall socket, as pulling the lead can damage
internal wires.
• The AC power plug is used as a disconnect device and
shall always remain readily operable.
• Do not remove the outer cover, as this may result in
electric shock. Refer internal service to your local
PIONEER service facility.
• The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the
ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers,
tablecloths, curtains, etc.
• No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should
be placed on the apparatus.
• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects
of battery disposal.
• The apparatus is designed for use in moderate climates.
• Do not touch this stereo receiver’s bottom panel while the
power is on or just after it is turned off. The bottom panel
becomes hot when the power is on (or right after it is
turned off) and could cause burns.
CAUTION
• The voltage used must be the same as that specified on
this unit. Using this product with a higher voltage other
than that which is specified is dangerous and may result
in a fire or other type of accident causing damage.
PIONEER will not be held responsible for any damage
resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than
that which is specified.
Loading the batteries
The batteries included with the unit are to check initial
operations; they may not last over a long period. We
recommend using alkaline batteries that have a longer life.
CAUTION
• Incorrect use of batteries may result in such hazards as
leakage and bursting. Observe the following precautions:
-
Never use new and old batteries together.
- Insert the plus and minus sides of the batteries
properly according to the marks in the battery case.
- Batteries with the same shape may have different
voltages. Do not use different batteries together.
-
When inserting the batteries, make sure not to
damage the springs on the battery’s (–) terminals.
This can cause batteries to leak or overheat.
- When disposing of used batteries, please comply with
governmental regulations or environmental public
institution’s rules that apply in your country/area.
WARNING
• Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight or other
excessively hot place, such as inside a car or near a
heater. This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode
or catch fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of
batteries.
