VENTILATION CAUTION (Receiver subwoofer)
When installing this unit, make sure to leave space
around the unit for ventilation to improve heat
radiation (at least 5 cm at top, 5 cm at rear, and 5
cm at each side).
VENTILATION CAUTION (DVD Recorder)
When installing this unit, make sure to leave space
around the unit for ventilation to improve heat
radiation (at least 10 cm at top, 10 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,

D3-4-2-1-7b_A_En
CAUTION
The
STANDBY/ON 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).
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.
S002_En
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).

for DVD recording.
· Long time recording
12 hours recording/Video mode

Sub-woofer with 5.1ch receiver function
This unit includes a subwoofer equipped with 5.1
channel amplifier and FM/AM tuner with RDS support.
The receiver is equipped with Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro
Logic II, and DTS decoders for the ultimate in live
listening presence.
Advanced surround modes are also provided to allow you
to select your own uniquely designed listening
environment (page 22).
3
Includes a separate display for greater freedom
in installation layout.
The separate display makes it easy to choose the
optimum layout for your installation location. Choose the
setting that provides the best storage and viewing
position.
The separate display is provided with control buttons,
allowing you to perform basic operations at the display
alone, without using the remote. On the other hand, the
separate display is also equipped with a remote control
receiver, allowing you to operate the unit by pointing the
remote at the display instead of at the DVD recorder or
subwoofer (page 20).
4
Three-spot front surround setting allows two
kinds of speaker placement
In addition to the conventional 5.1ch speaker placement,
the rear (surround) speakers can be placed in the front if
desired, thus producing a 3-spot front surround setting
with the same kind of sound field as the normal 5.1ch
arrangement. This provides greater freedom in speaker
placement to match different sound environments and
room conditions.
For example, the 3-spot front setting can be used in cases
where the listening room has no space for the placement
of surround (rear) speakers, or in cases where speaker
wiring to the rear would be particularly difficult.
To produce the most lifelike ambience from the 3-spot
front setting, original surround modes (Front Surround
Movie / Front Surround Music / Extra Power) are provided
thus allowing you to create genuine 5.1ch audio
ambience and a sense of spatial movement not possible
with conventional virtual surround systems (page 6).
5
Connect a wide range of sources
Three digital input connector systems and one analog
input connector system are provided, allowing you to
connect sound from a variety of television monitors,
satellite tuners and other components (page 29).
6
Environmentally conscious design
The subwoofer with its 5.1ch amplifier consumes less
than 0.5W of energy in standby mode, providing
economic, environmentally conscious operation.
