Precautions
Cleaning Care of the Unit
∞ Normal cleaning should consist of dry wiping the unit with
a soft cloth. In the event of severe soiling, make a dilution
of 1 part neutral deutergent in 5 or 6 parts water. Dip a
soft cloth in the solution and wring well, then wipe away
the dirt, followed by a gentle wiping with a soft dry cloth.
∞ Avoid contact of the unit with alcohol, thinner, benzene,
insecticides or other similar chemicals, since they may
cause the unit’s labeling or finish to peel.
∞ Avoid long term contact of the unit with rubber or vinyl
objects, since damage to the cabinet finish may result.
∞ When using a chemically impregnated cleaning cloth,
read the instructions accompanying the cloth and follow
all cautionary notes.
∞ Disconnect the power cord from its outlet before
performing cleaning.
Cleaning the pickup lens
The DVD recorder’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 available, we do not recommend using them
since some may damage the lens.
Disc Precautions
7 Recommended Discs
÷ Use only recommended disc media in order to assure
stable recording and playback.
÷ Consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized service center
regarding recommended disc media.
7 Handling of Discs
Discs may become incapable of recording and playback
when scratched, or when soiled with fingerprints or dust.
Always handle discs as noted below:
÷ Never touch the recording surface (mirror surface) when
handling discs. Hold discs between their edges, or
between one edge and one finger in the center hole.
÷ Do not apply adhesive tapes or labels to discs.
÷ Do not use cracked or warped discs, since they may
shatter dangerously at high rotation speeds.
÷ Do not use non-standard discs, since they may cause
adverse affects to the player and other components.
÷ Do not use discs shaped in non-circular shapes (hearts,
polygons, etc.), since they may cause malfunctions.
÷ To clean fingerprints from a soiled disc, wipe gently
from the center hole radially toward the circumference.
Do not wipe in a circular motion.
÷ Do not use anti-static or other record sprays. Also, never
use benzene, thinner or toher volatile cleaners to clean
the surface of discs, since such chemicals may melt or
otherwise damage the surface.
Always store discs in their protective cases; before
use, check the recording surface for fingerprints or
other soiling.

External Hard Disk (USB HDD)
÷ Although we confirm the USB hard disk drive is in
working order at time of shipment, it is not covered by the
Pioneer Warranty.
÷ Do not connect/disconnect the USB connectors when the
unit is on as this may cause data loss and result in
unstable operation. Connect the USB HDD before turning
on the unit. A USB HDD equipped with a power switch
should be turned on before turning on the unit. The unit
should also be turned off before removing the USB HDD.
÷ Do not connect two or more USB HDDs to the unit.
÷ Refer to the instruction manual supplied with the USB
HDD for information on USB HDD precautions.
÷ Data backed up on the hard disk may be corrupted if the
USB HDD is damaged. Save important data to DVD-R/
RW as DVD-Video disc.
