sure of the type of power supply to your home,

consult your product dealer or local power

company.

LOCATION The appliance should be installed

in a stable location.

NONUSE PERIODS The power cord of the

appliance should be unplugged from the

outlet when left un-used for a long period of

time.

GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

If this product is equipped with a polarized

alternating current line plug (a plug having one

blade wider than the other), it will fit into the outlet

only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try

reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,

contact your electrician to replace your obsolete

outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

polarized plug.

If this product is equipped with a three-wire

grounding type plug, a plug having a third

(grounding) pin, it will only fit into a grounding type

power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact

your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.

Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding

type plug.

POWER-CORD PROTECTION -- Power-supply cords

should be routed so that they are not likely to be

walked on or pinched by items placed upon or

against them, paying particular attention to cords

at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the product.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING -- If an outside

antenna or cable system is connected to the

product, be sure the antenna or cable system is

grounded so as to provide some protection against

voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article

810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA

70, provides information with regard to proper

grounding of the mast and supporting structure,

grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna

discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,

location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to

grounding electrodes, and requirements for the

grounding electrode. See Figure A.

LIGHTNING -- For added protection for this product

during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the

antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage

to the product due to lightning and power-line

surges.

POWER LINES -- An outside antenna system should

not be located in the vicinity of overhead power

lines or other electric light or power circuits, or

where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.

When installing an outside antenna system,

extreme care should be taken to keep from

touching such power lines or circuits as contact

with them might be fatal.

OVERLOADING -- Do not overload wall outlets,

extension cords, or integral convenience

receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or

electric shock.

OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY -- Never push

objects of any kind into this product through

openings as they may touch dangerous voltage

points or short-out parts that could result in a

fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any

kind on the product.

SERVICING -- Do not attempt to service this

product yourself as opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltage or other

hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE -- Unplug this

product from the wall outlet and refer servicing

to qualified service personnel under the

following conditions:

When the power-supply cord or plug is

damaged.

If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen

into the product.

If the product has been exposed to rain or

water.

If the product does not operate normally by

following the operating instructions. Adjust only

those controls that are covered by the operating

instructions as an improper adjustment of other

controls may result in damage and will often

require extensive work by a qualified technician

to restore the product to its normal operation.

If the product has been dropped or damaged in

any way.

When the product exhibits a distinct change in

performance -- this indicates a need for service.

REPLACEMENT PARTS -- When replacement

parts are required, be sure the service technician

has used replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer or have the same characteristics

as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions

may result in fire, electric shock, or other

hazards.

SAFETY CHECK -- Upon completion of any service

or repairs to this product, ask the service

technician to perform safety checks to

determine that the product is in proper operating

condition.

WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING -- The product

Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is

only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you

can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manu-

facturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics

Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe

level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without

annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting

your sensitive hearing.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts

to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud

and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment

at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.

To establish a safe level:

÷ Start your volume control at a low setting.

÷ Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and

clearly, and without distortion.

Once you have established a comfortable sound level:

÷ Set the dial and leave it there.

Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or

loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun

and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetect-

able until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries

Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid pro-

longed exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for

your protection.

CAUTION

This product contains a laser diode of higher class than 1.

To ensure continued safety, do not remove any covers

or attempt to gain access to the inside of the product.

Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.

The following caution label appears on your unit.

Location: rear of the unit

Energy-saving design

This system is designed to use less than 1W of electric-

ity when power is switched to Standby.

Regarding the exact value of the Power Consumption

in standby mode, refer to specifications on page 59.

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.
