The lightning flash with arrowhead, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
CAUTION
IMPORTANT
CAUTION:
TO PREVENT THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
READ INSTRUCTIONS ­ All the safety and operating
instructions should be read before the appliance is
operated.
RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS ­ The safety and operating
instructions should be retained for future
reference.
HEED WARNING ­ All warnings on the appliance and
in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS ­ All operating and use in-
structions should be followed.
WATER AND MOISTURE ­ The appliance should not
be used near water ­ for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.
LOCATION ­ The appliance should be installed in a
stable location.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING ­ The appliance
should not be mounted to a wall or ceiling.
VENTILATION ­ The appliance should be situated so
that its location or position does not interfere with
its proper ventilation. For example, the appliance
should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or
similar surface that may block the ventilation
openings; or, placed in a built-in installation, such
as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the
flow of air through
the ventilation openings.
HEAT ­ The appliance should be situated away from
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers)
that produce heat.
POWER SOURCES ­ The appliance should be con-
nected to a power supply only of the type de-
scribed in the operating instructions or as marked
on the appliance.
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. Pay particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the appliance.
GROUNDING-TYPE PLUG ­ This product is equipped
with a three-wire grounding-type plug, a plug
having a third (grounding) pin.
This plug 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.
CLEANING ­ The appliance should be cleaned only
with a polishing cloth or a soft dry cloth. Never
clean with furniture wax, benzine, insecticides or
other volatile liquids since they may corrode the
cabinet.
OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING ­ If an outside
antenna is connected to the antenna terminal, be
sure the antenna system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges
and built-up static charges.
In the U.S.A. section 810 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with
respect 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
Fig. A.
CART ­ An appliance and cart combination should be
moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force,
and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and
cart combination to overturn.
POWER LINES ­ An outdoor antenna should be located
away from power lines.
NONUSE PERIODS ­ The power cord of the appliance
should be unplugged from the outlet when left un-
used for a long period of time.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY ­ Care should be taken
so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled
into the enclosure through openings.
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE ­ The appliance
should be serviced by a Pioneer authorized service
center or qualified service personnel when:
÷ The power-supply cord or the plug has been
damaged.
÷ Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into
the appliance.
÷ The appliance has been exposed to rain.
÷ Theappliancedoesnotappeartooperatenormally
or exhibits a marked change in performance.
÷ The appliance has been dropped or the enclosure
damaged.
SERVICING ­ The user should not attempt to service
the appliance beyond that described in the
operating instructions. All other servicing should
be referred to qualified service personnel.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
­ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
­ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
­ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
­ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

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
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic
Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend
you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound
levels is included for your protection.

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 manufacturer 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.

Location
Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will
not be exposed to high temperatures or humidity.
Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to
direct rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Exces-
sive heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal com-
ponents. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty envi-
ronment may also result in a malfunction or accident. (Avoid
installation near cookers etc., where the unit may be ex-
posed to oily smoke, steam or heat.)
Condensation
When this unit is brought into a warm room from previ-
ously cold surroundings or when the room temperature
rises sharply, condensation may form inside, and the unit
may not be able to attain its full performance. In cases like
this, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise the
room temperature gradually.
