Handling and Care of the Disc
Some basic precautions are necessary when
handling your discs.
DVD Map Discs
• Do not use discs other than those intended for
this product. Use only discs approved by Pio-
neer.
❒
If you wish to use other DVD Map Discs,
first check that they are compatible with
this equipment and approved by Pioneer.
DVD drive and care
• Use only normal, round discs. If you insert
irregular, non-round shaped discs they may
jam in the DVD drive or not play properly.
• Check all discs for cracks, scratches or warp-
age before playing. Discs that have cracks or
scratches, or those that are warped may not
play properly. Do not use such discs.
• Avoid touching the recorded (non-printed side)
surface when handling the disc.
• Store discs in their cases when not in use.
• Keep discs out of direct sunlight and do not
expose the discs to high temperatures.
• Do not attach labels to, write on or apply chem-
icals to the surface of the discs.
• To clean dirt from a disc, wipe the disc with a
soft cloth outward from the centre of the disc.
• If the heater is used in cold weather, condensa-
tion may form on components inside the DVD
drive. Condensation may cause the DVD drive
to operate incorrectly. If you think that conden-
sation is a problem, turn off the DVD drive for
an hour or so to allow the DVD drive to dry out,
and wipe any damp discs with a soft cloth to
remove the moisture.
• Road shocks may interrupt disc playback.

• With some DVD-Video discs, it may not be pos-
sible to use certain functions.

Video discs.
