SET UP Introductory Information Operating range of remote control unit Point the remote control toward the remote sensor Î on the front panel of this unit to operate. The remote control unit will operate the receiver for up to a distance of 23 feet (7 m) within 30° angle on each side of the sensor of the remote sensor as illustrated below. Operating other PIONEER components Connecting an optional control cord allows you to operate other PIONEER components simply by pointing the receiver's remote control at the remote sensor on the front panel of the receiver. The receiver then sends the remote control signals to the other devices via the CONTROL OUT terminal. 30 30 23 feet(7m) memo Remote control may not function properly if : • There are obstacles between the remote control and the remote sensor. • Direct sunlight or fluorescent light is shining onto the remote sensor. • The receiver is located near a device emitting infrared rays. • Operated simultaneously with another remote control which uses infrared rays.

This type of operation does not require control cords. All you have to do is recall the appropriate preset code (Refer to "Recalling preset codes" on page 22). • Do not place objects directly on top of this unit. It will prevent proper heat dispersal. • When installing in a rack, etc., be sure to leave more than 8 inches of space above the receiver. Leave more than 8 inches (20 cm) Receiver memo It is recommended that you place the receiver to the left of your cassette and/ or video decks. This will prevent noise caused by leakage flux from the transformer in the receiver. If you experience noise during playback of your cassette and/or video decks, move them farther away from the receiver. When Making Cable Connections Be careful not to arrange cables in a manner that bends the cables over the top of this unit as shown in the illustration. If the cables are brought over this unit, the magnetic field produced by the transformers in this unit may cause a humming noise to come from the speakers. OPERATION 7
