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 compo-
nents and speakers:
Do...
✔ Use in a well-ventilated room.
✔ Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table, shelf or stereo rack.
✔ Leave at least 10cm either side of the unit, 15cm at the back, and 25cm
overhead for proper ventilation.
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 fan on the rear of the unit. Don’t cover the unit with cloth,
or use on thick carpet, etc.
✗ Place the display unit on or very near a television, monitor or analog clock.
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.
Be sure to leave enough space for
proper ventilation above, either
side and at the rear of the unit.

CAUTION! Handling power cords
Always handle the power cord by the plug - don’t pull out the plug
from the wall socket by the wire. Avoid touching the plug or cord with
wet hands. Do not place this unit, furniture, etc. on top of the power
cord, and route it in such a way that it is unlikely to be stepped on or
tripped over. Never tie the power cord together with other cords, or
knot it in any way.
A damaged power cord can cause fire or give you an electric shock.
Check the power cord occasionally—if it’s damaged ask a Pioneer
authorized service centre or your dealer for a replacement.
