MP3/WMA/JPEG CD Information  
This player can play back MP3/WMA/JPEG files recorded  
on a CD-R or CD-RW.  
MP3isanaudiofileformat, whichcompressesrecordedmusic.  
It was developed by Fraunhofer Gesellschaft in collaboration  
with Thomson Inc. The main advantage of the MP3 format is  
that it means CD-quality music tracks can be stored on a  
personal computer.  
WMA (Windows Media Audio) is another audio file format  
developed by Microsoft.  
JPEG files are image files.  
To create these files you need a Windows-PC with CD-ROM  
drive and MP3/WMA/JPEG-encoding software (not supplied).  
The Apple-HFS-System cannot be played.

To display video on the TV screen, the conventional  
scanning method is called “Interlaced scanning.” With this  
method, only half of the horizontal lines are displayed at a  
time. So two fields complete a single picture (frame); i.e.,  
the first field, containing all the odd-numbered lines, is  
displayed followed by the second field, containing all the  
even-numbered lines.  
The Progressive scanning system scans all horizontal  
lines at a time, so you can double the number of lines  
compared with the interlaced scanning, resulting in a  
high-density, flicker-free picture.

When you playback the CD disc, the status display will

To enjoy a progressive scanned video, the TV connected  
to the unit must have Progressive inputs.  
Dynamic Range Control  
Depending on the material source format, DVD discs can  
be classified into two categories; film and video (note that  
some DVD discs contain both a film source and a video  
source). Film sources are recorded as 24-frame-per-  
second information, while (NTSC) video sources are  
recorded as 30-frame-per second (60-field-per-second  
interlaced) information.  
When the unit plays back a film source material,  
uninterlaced progressive output signals are created using  
the original information. When a video source material is  
played back, the unit interleaves lines between the  
interlaced lines on each to create the interpolated picture  
and outputs as the progressive signal.  
DRC (Dynamic Range Control) enables you to control  
the dynamic range so as to achieve a suitable sound  
for your equipment.

• Some discs may not be played back with the progressive scan-

Video head cleaning  
Video head clogging  
The video heads are the means by which the DVD/VCR reads the  
picture from the tape during playback. In the unlikely event that the  
heads become dirty enough to be clogged, no picture will be played  
back. This can easily be determined if, during playback of a known  
good tape, there is good sound, but no picture (picture is extremely  
snowy). If this is the case, have the DVD/VCR checked by qualified  
service personnel.  
Normal  
When head is dirty  
NOTES:  
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE TOP COVER.  
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced when they fail to produce clear pictures.  
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.  
We do not recommend using wet-type head-cleaning cassettes as they may damage the unit.

Handling discs  
When holding discs of any type, take care not to leave  
fingerprints, dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the  
disc by its edge or by the center hole and edge.  
Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback and recording  
performance. Take care also not to scratch the label side of  
the disc. Although not as fragile as the recorded side,  
scratches can still result in a disc becoming unusable.  
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust, etc.,  
clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the  
center to the outside edge as shown in the diagram below.

Appearance  
The program is  
shown in widescreen  
with black bars at the  
top and bottom of the  
screen.  
The sides of the  
4:3 (Pan Scan)  
program are cropped  
so that the picture fills  
the whole screen.  
Please note that many  
widescreen discs override the player's  
settings so that the disc is shown in letter  
box format regardless of the setting.  
The program appears  
squashed. Set to  
either 4:3 (Letter box)  
or 4:3 (Pan Scan).

If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a  
commercially available CD/DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc  
more thoroughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other  
cleaning agents, including products designed for cleaning  
vinyl records.  
The program is  
presented correctly  
on either setting.

Storing discs  
Although CDs and DVD discs are more durable than vinyl  
records, you should still take care to handle and store discs  
correctly. When you're not using a disc, return it to its case  
and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold,  
humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight).  
Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a  
pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing

manual that came with  
the TV for details.  
For more detailed care information see the instructions that  
come with discs.  
Do not load more than one disc into the player.  
Damaged discs  
NOTE:  
Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If you can see  
that a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise  
damaged, don't risk using it; you could end up damaging the  
player.  
• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or  
either of the 4:3 settings with a widescreen TV, will result in  
a distorted picture.  
This player is designed for use with conventional, fully  
circular discs only. Use of shaped discs is not recommended  
for this product. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in  
connection with the use of shaped discs.

Cleaning the pickup lens  
Hints on installation  
The DVD player's lens should not become dirty in normal  
use, but if for some reason it should malfunction due to dust  
or dirt, consult your nearest Pioneer-authorized service  
center. Although lens cleaners for CD players are  
commercially available, we do not recommend using them  
since some may damage the lens.  
We want you to enjoy using this unit for years to come, so  
please bear in mind the following points when choosing a  
suitable location for it:  
Do...  
Use in a well-ventilated room.  
Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table,  
shelf or stereo rack.  
Handling video tapes  
Don't...  
Please do not use the following kinds of video tape:  
- Dusty or mouldy tape  
Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or  
humidity, including near radiators and other heat-  
generating appliances.  
Place on a window sill or other place where the DVD/  
VCR will be exposed to direct sunlight.  
Use in a dusty or damp environment or in a room where it  
will be exposed to excessive cigarette smoke.  
Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other component in  
your stereo system that becomes hot in use.  
Use near a television or monitor as you may experience  
interference-especially if the television uses an indoor  
antenna.  
- Tape on which liquid has been spilled  
- Tape which has been broken and then repaired  
- Tape which has become unwound from the spools  
in the cassette  
Dirty heads and very long length, thin video tape can  
cause problems such as uneven playback.  
When using a new video tape, fast-forward to the  
end, then rewind it back to the start before using.  
Avoid dropping video tapes or exposing them to  
severe vibration.  
Use in a kitchen or other room where the DVD/VCR  
may be exposed to smoke or steam.  
Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth-this  
may prevent proper cooling of the unit.  
Storing video tapes  
After using a video tape, rewind it back to the  
beginning and return to its case.  
Do not store tapes:  
Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large  
enough to support all four of the unit's feet.  
- in excessively dusty places  
- in excessively hot or humid places  
- in direct sunlight  
- near air-conditioners or heaters  
- near strong magnetic fields  
Moving the DVD/VCR  
If you need to move this unit, first remove the disc and the  
cassette, if they are loaded, and close the disc tray. Next  
press STANDBY/ON to switch the power to standby. Lastly,  
disconnect the power cord.

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.  
Decibel  
Level Example  
30 Quiet library, soft whispers  
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic  
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office  
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine  
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant  
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock  
at two feet.  
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.  
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS  
UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE  
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower  
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill  
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers,  
thunderclap  
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.  
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane  
180 Rocket launching pad  
Once you have established a comfortable sound  
level:  
• Set the dial and leave it there.  
Information courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.  
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.
