D3-4-2-1-7c_A_En
WARNING
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.
D3-4-2-1-4_A_En
Before plugging in for the first time, read the following
section carefully.
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.
K041_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).
D3-4-2-2-1a_A_En
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
VENTILATION CAUTION
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).
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.
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).

Speaker Setup Guide
Safety precautions when setting up
When assembling the speakers, lay them down flat on
their side to avoid accidents or injury. Make sure to use a
stable surface when assembling, setting up, and placing
the speakers.
If the speakers are to be used in a stacked configuration,
always use the provided brackets to secure them
together (page 5, 6).
Home theater sound setup
Most 5.1 channel home theater systems are designed so
that speakers are placed to surround the listener's
position as shown in the illustration. Such designs,
however, produce the undesirable effect of forcing the
center speaker to be mounted above or below the
television monitor, and require room for the surround
speakers.
The present system, however, features Pioneer's
proprietary New Front Surround technology and Dual
Center Speakers, using only two speaker positions (to
right and left of television as shown in the illustration) in
order to provide full home theater sound while greatly
simplifying the issue of speaker placement.
Front surround setup (recommended)
This recommended method places the surround
speakers in front, to simplify the issue of speaker
placement in the room. The center speakers can be
placed in independently in the center if desired.

1
Attach the smaller non-skid pads to the base of
each of the front, center and surround speakers. The
four large non-skid pads are for the receiver
subwoofer (as shown).
Use the adhesive side of the pads to attach them to the
base (flat surface) of each speaker.
2
Stack the speakers and fix with the brackets.
Each speaker is provided with a color-coded indicator on
the model label on the rear side to assist identification.
Refer to the color indicators and install the speakers
correctly.
As shown in the illustration, stack the speakers from the
bottom up in the order front speaker, center speaker,
surround speaker. Align the bracket with the respective
upper screw hole on the back of the front speaker, the
two screw holes on the center speaker, and the bottom
screw hole on the surround speaker, and fasten the
screws securely.
When placing the center speakers independently, stack
the front speaker on the bottom and the surround
speaker on top, then align the 1st and 3rd screw holes
from the top of the bracket with the upper screw holes on
the back of the speakers, and fasten the two securely.
Caution
· Do not attempt to carry the speakers when they are
connected with the bracket. Doing so may cause
damage to the bracket or worsen damage to the
bracket and speakers in the event they are dropped.
3
Connect the speaker system.
Refer to Connecting up to connect the speakers properly.
After connecting everything, place the speakers as
shown in the diagram above for optimal surround sound.
After placing the speakers, run the Auto MCACC setup
(page 15) to complete your surround sound setup.
