IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The serial number for the equipment is located

on the rear of the product. Please write this

serial number on the warranty sheet and keep

it in a secure area for future reference.

VENTILATION CAUTION

When installing this unit, make sure to leave

space around the unit for ventilation to improve

heat radiation (at least 25 cm at top, 15 cm at

rear, and 10 cm at each side)

.

WARNING

Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided

for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of

the product, and to protect it from overheating.

To prevent fire hazard, the openings should

never be blocked or covered with items (such

as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains) or by

operating the equipment on thick carpet or

a bed.

WARNING

To prevent a fire hazard, do not place any

naked flame sources (such as a lighted candle)

on the equipment.

WARNING

This equipment is not waterproof. To prevent a

fire or shock hazard, do not place any container

filled with liquid near this equipment (such as

a vase or flower pot) or expose it to dripping,

splashing, rain or moisture.

POWER-CORD CAUTION

Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull

out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch

the power cord when your hands are wet as this

could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Do

not place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on the

power cord, or pinch the cord. Never make a knot

in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power

cords should be routed such that they are not

likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord

can cause a fire or give you an electrical shock.

Check the power cord once in a while. When

you find it damaged, ask your nearest PIONEER

authorized service center or your dealer for a

replacement.

WARNING

Before plugging in for the first time, read the

following section carefully.

The voltage of the available power supply

differs according to country or region. Be

sure that the power supply voltage of the area

where this unit will be used meets the required

voltage (e.g., 230 V or 120 V) written on the

rear panel.

If the AC plug of this unit does not match

the AC outlet you want to use, the plug must

be removed and appropriate one fitted.

Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on

the power supply cord of this unit should be

performed only by qualified service personnel.

If connected to an AC outlet, the cut-off plug

can cause severe electrical shock. Make

sure it is properly disposed of after removal.

The equipment should be disconnected by

removing the mains plug from the wall socket

when left unused for a long period of time (for

example, when on vacation).

CAUTION

The POWER switch on this unit will not completely

shut off all power from the AC outlet. Since the

power cord serves as the main disconnect

device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from

the AC outlet to shut down all power. Therefore,

make sure the unit has been installed so that the

power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC

outlet in case of an accident. To avoid fire hazard,

the power cord should also be unplugged from

the AC outlet when left unused for a long period

of time (for example, when on vacation).

This product is for general household purposes.

Any failure due to use for other than household

purposes (such as long-term use for business

purposes in a restaurant or use in a car or ship)

and which requires repair will be charged for

even during the warranty period.

WARNING:

Handling the cord on this product

or cords associated with accessories sold

with the product may expose you to chemicals

listed on proposition 65 known to the State

of California and other governmental entities

to cause cancer and birth defect or other

reproductive harm.
