Before Use
Regarding installation
• Use this component in a level and steady location. Avoid
using in wobbly or unstable locations, or places subject to
vibration.
• Do not interrupt the ventilation functions of the compo-
nent. Do not use when set on shaggy or long-pile carpets,
or covered with cloths or other coverings, since the venti-
lation functions may be impaired, resulting in malfunction.
• Do not set other objects on top of this unit.
• Do not install this component in locations exposed to heat.
Avoid installing this component above amplifiers or other
heat-generating devices. When using in an audio rack or
other vertical installation, install in a well-ventilated loca-
tion below amplifiers or other heat-generating compo-
nents, to avoid adverse affects from heat.
• When multiple players are simultaneously turned ON/OFF
from an external controller, a large surge current is pro-
duced. Consult your Pioneer dealer regarding power switch
ratings for such uses. Consult the “Specifications” (page
99) for details regarding the current values for each unit.
Important
When mounting this unit on an EIA rack, the rack mount kit
CB-A802 (sold separately) must be used. See the instruc-
tions accompanying the kit for details on how to install the
kit. Attempting to use other installation methods may result
in damage to the unit or personal injury.
¶ The rack mount size for this unit is 2U.
¶ The rack mount kit supports both EIA universal pitch and
wide pitch sizes.

is protected by U.S. patents and other intellectual property

Transporting the player
When transporting this unit, always use the original packag-
ing and avoid exposing the unit to vibrations, impacts, or drop-
ping. During transport, do not allow the unit to be exposed to
heat or moisture.
Also, before moving the unit, be sure to remove any disc and
disconnect all cables and wires. Transporting the player with
a disc loaded may result in damage to the disc or internal
parts of the player. Moving the unit with cables attached may
result in damage to connectors.
Special Precautions
Never move the player when it is operating. During play,
discs rotate at very high speeds; lifting or moving the player
at such times will result in damage to the disc. Likewise,
subjecting the player to strong vibration or impact when a
disc is loaded may result in damage to the player or disc.
Whenever moving the player, stop playback and remove
the disc first. Likewise stop playback and remove the disc
before lifting or carrying the player.
This player is equipped with precision optical parts. Take
adequate precautions to control temperature and dust in
the room where it is installed.
Cleaning the pickup lens
The DVD player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use,
but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust or
dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized service center.
Although lens cleaners for CD players are commercially avail-
able, we do not recommend using them since some may
damage the lens.
Condensation
Condensation may form on internal parts of the player (me-
chanical parts and optical lenses) if it is brought into a warm
room from a cool outdoors, or if the temperature of the room
is raised too quickly. If condensation is left as is, the player
will not operate properly, thus preventing playback. If internal
condensation occurs, turn on the power and leave the player
unused for 1 to 2 hours to allow it to acclimatize to the room
temperature. This will allow the internal parts to rise to the
same temperature as the room, thus evaporating any con-
densation and allowing it to be played once again.
Condensation may also occur in summer, if the outlet from
an air cooler is allowed to direct its flow directly onto the
player. In this event, change the installation location to avoid
the flow from the air cooler.
