08 Chapter 8 Additional information Taking care of your player and discs General Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole and edge. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do not use a pencil, ballpoint pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument to write on the disc. Don't use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as these can cause the disc to warp slightly during playback causing distortion in the picture and/or sound. Damaged and shaped discs Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged discs as they may damage the player. This player is designed to be used only with conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use shaped discs. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs. Cleaning discs Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as shown below. Cleaning the unit's exterior Unplug the unit before cleaning. Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit. If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning cloth, read the instructions carefully before use. These cloths may leave smear marks on half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens, finish with a dry cloth. 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. We do not recommend using commercially available lens cleaners for CD players. Condensation Condensation may form inside the player 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 player, it may temporarily impair its performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before switching on. Moving the player If you need to move the player, first press  STANDBY/ON on the front panel or remote control to turn the player off. Wait for "-OFF-" to disappear from the display, then unplug the power cable. Never lift or move the unit during playback - discs rotate at a high speed and may be damaged. Caution for when the unit is installed in a rack with a glass door Do not press the  OPEN/CLOSE button on the remote control to open the disc table while the glass door is closed. The door will hamper movement of the disc table, and the disc table could be damaged. If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning vinyl records. 40 En
