CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING

LOCATION

Install the player in a well ventilated location where it will
not be exposed to high temperatures or humidity.
Do not install the player 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. Also,
installation of the player in a damp or dusty environment may
result in a malfunction or accident.

PRECAUTIONS REGARDING INSTALLATION

÷ Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources such as

amplifiers.

÷ Install this compact disc player as far as possible from

tuners and TV sets. Noise may be particularly noticeable
when an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, make use
of an outdoor antenna, or turn off power to the compact disc
player.

÷ Please place this unit on a level surface.

CLEANING THE PLAYER AND THE MAGAZINE

To clean the PLAYER and the MAGAZINE, wipe with a soft,
dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild
detergent solution made by diluting one part detergent to 5 or
6 parts water, wring well, then wipe off the dirt. Use a dry cloth
to wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as
benzene and thinner which are harmful to the unit.

STORING DISCS

Be careful not to allow discs to warp; always store discs in
their cases vertically, avoiding locations with high heat or
humidity, or extremely low temperatures.

CD LENS CLEANER

The player’s pickup lens should not become dirty in normal
use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to
soiling, consult your nearest PIONEER authorized service
center. Lens cleaners for CD players are commercially available,
but special care should be exercised in their use since some
may cause damage to the lens.

CONDENSATION

When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously
cold surroundings or when the room temperature rises
suddenly, condensation may form inside, and the unit may not
be able to attain its full performance. If this occurs, allow the
unit to stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature
gradually.

CLEANING AND HANDLING COMPACT DISCS

÷ Always keep your discs clean by wiping them gently with a

soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer periphery.

÷ If a disc becomes very dirty, dip a soft cloth in water, and

after wringing it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and
then remove any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.

÷ Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on

discs. Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or
other volatile solvents, since damage to the disc surface
may result.

÷ With this player, use discs which display the mark shown

below. (Optical audio digital discs.)

÷ When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces (the

side reflecting a “rainbow” pattern, opposite the label side).
Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.

÷ Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the label surfaces.

Also, do not scratch or damage the label.

÷ Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use

damaged (cracked or warped) discs.

÷ Do not play a CD with a special shape (having other shape

than a circular disc, such as a heart shaped disc). Otherwise
malfunction may occur.

NOTES:

÷

In order to play an 8 cm (3 inch) CD you will need a special
Multi-Play Magazine (JD-M108, JD-M308) which is sold
separately. Be sure to thoroughly read the Operating
Instructions before using it.

÷

8 cm (3 inch) CD Adapters:
It is possible that even an adapter which meets
recommended standard CD specifications will not be usable
with the CD player. It is recommended that the special
Multi-Play Magazine (JD-M108, JD-M308) be used.

÷

Never load an 8 cm (3 inch) CD or its adapter into a standard
12 cm (5 inch) magazine. This may seriously damage the CD
player.

÷

Do not insert only an 8 cm (3 inch) disc and adapter into the
supplied magazine.
