BEFORE YOU USE THE PLAYER
HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN DO!
Im m ediately access and play your favorite tracks
from am ong the 100 discs loaded in the player.
[page 16]
The Best Selection Memory function lets you store and play
favorite tracks with the touch of a single button (up to 20 tracks).
Up to 100 CDs can be registered by classifying
them into 3 categories (CUSTOM). [page 12]
For example, if you register you own discs in CUSTOM I, your
mother’s discs in CUSTOM II and your father’s discs in CUSTOM
III or if you select three kinds of music genres or artists and
register them in the three CUSTOM banks, you can play all of the
discs classified under one of the three CUSTOM banks. Addition
of discs to already-registered discs is also possible. Each of the
three CUSTOM banks can register up to 100 discs.
Easy access to the disc(s) you've listened to
recently. [page 16]
The Previous Disc Scan function recalls the last disc you played
and then moves one by one through the previously played discs
(auto-memory of last 20 discs played).
Single Loader slot is provided. [page 11]
If you have a disc borrowed from a friend, you can play only that
disc by loading it in this special slot (Disc No. 0), without replacing
discs stored in the rack.

CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING
Location
Condensation
Install the player in a w ell-ventilated location w here it w ill not be
exposed to high tem peratures or hum idity.
When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold
surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, con-
densation may form inside, and the unit may not be able to attain
its full performance. If this occurs, allow the unit to stand for about
an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.
Do not install the player in a location which is exposed to direct
rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can
adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation
of the player in a damp or dusty environment may also result in a
malfunction or an accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc.,
where the player may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.)
Do not install the player on a tottered stand nor in an unstable or
inclined place.
Cleaning and handling com pact discs
÷
The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the
disc will not directly affect the recorded signals, but depending
on the degree of contamination, the brightness of the light
reflected from the signal surfaces may be reduced, causing
degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by
wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge to-
ward the outer periphery.
Precautions regarding installation
÷
÷
Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on
heat-generating sources such as amplifiers will affect perfor-
mance. Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.
Install this compact disc player as far as possible from tuners
and TV sets. A compact disc player installed in close proximity
to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the pic-
ture.
÷
Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor an-
tenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna,
or turn off power to the compact disc player.
÷
÷
If a disc becomes very dirty, dip a soft cloth in water, and after
wringing it out well, wipe the dirt away gently, and then remove
any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.
Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs.
Also, never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile
solvents, since damage to the disc surface may result.
÷ Please place this unit on a level surface.

Thinner
Cleaning the player
To clean the PLAYER, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn
dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution made by dilut-
ing one part detergent to 5 or 6 parts water, wring well, then wipe
off the dirt. Also use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not
use volatile liquids such as benzene and thinner which are harmful
to the unit.
With this unit, use a Compact Disc carrying the mark shown
below. Do not use other disc, for this may result in malfunction
or damage.
÷
÷
÷
÷
When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by
the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.
Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the label surfaces. Also,
do not scratch or damage the label.
Discs rotate at high speed inside the player. Do not use dam-
aged (cracked or warped) discs.
Do not play a CD with a special shape (having other shape than
a circular disc, such as a heart shaped disc). Otherwise mal-
function may occur.
Storing discs
÷
÷
Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conven-
tional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to
warp; always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding loca-
tions with high heat or humidity, or extremely low tempera-
tures. Avoid leaving discs in cars, since the seat of a car in
direct sunlight can become unbelievably hot.
Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc
labels.
'
CD lens cleaner
Re-transporting
The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use, but
if for some reason it should malfunction due to soiling, consult your
nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens cleaners for CD
players are commercially available, but special care should be exer-
cised in their use since some may cause damage to the lens.
When re-transporting this unit in the future, remove all discs from the
rack. Turn off the STANDBY/ON switch, wait for "OFF" to go out from
the display, and unplug 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 manufac-
turer 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
40
50
60
70
80
Quiet library, soft whispers
Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
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
100
120
140
180
Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
Rock band concert in front of speakers, thunderclap
Gunshot blast, jet plane
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.
Rocket launching pad
Information courtesy of the Deafness Research Foundation.
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.
