5 CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING 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 hot appliances or radiators. Excessive heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty environment may also result in a malfunction or an accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc., where the unit may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.) Do not install the unit on a tottered stand, nor in an unstable or inclined surface. Condensation When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously 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. If this occurs, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually. Cleaning and handling compact discs Precautions regarding installation Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on heat-generating sources such as amplifiers will affect performance. 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 picture. Such noise may be particularly noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna, or turn off power to the compact disc player. Please place this unit on a level surface. 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 toward the outer periphery. 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. Cleaning the player Record cleaning sprays Thinner Benzene To clean the PLAYER wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, wet a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution made by diluting 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. Storing discs Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conventional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to warp; always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding locations with high heat or humidity, or extremely low temperatures. 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. 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 damaged (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 malfunction may occur. ' CD lens cleaner 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 exercised in their use since some may cause damage to the lens. Re-transporting 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.

OPTICAL DIGITAL IN B Optical Fiber Cable Power cord A-2 The illustration shows the flat blade 2-pin AC plug model. A Making connections 1 Connect the OUTPUT jacks of this unit to the input jacks (CD or AUX) of the amplifier. Make sure that the white plug is connected to the left (L) jack and the red plug to the right (R) jack. Be sure not to connect this unit to the amplifier s PHONO jacks, as sound will be distorted and normal playback will not be possible. 2 Connect the power cord to a household AC wall outlet. Make sure plugs are inserted fully into the wall outlet. NOTE: Do not connect the power cord to an AC outlet on your amplifier. B Connecting the OPTICAL FIBER CABLE (PD-F50 only) This unit can be connected to an amplifier equipped with an optical digital jack. 1. Remove the protective dust cap from this unit s DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL jack. 2. Use an optical fiber cable to connect the DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL jack of this unit to the optical input jack of the amplifier. Align the plug of the optical fiber cable with the optical digital jack and fully insert the plug to make a secure connection. Use a separately sold optical fiber cable for the optical digital jack connections. Precautions concerning use of optical fiber cables Fully insert the optical fiber cable plugs all the way into the jacks. Be careful not to fold or crimp the cable. When coiling an optical fiber cable for storage, make sure the diameter of the coil is 15 cm or larger. Use an optical fiber cable with a length of m or less. Protect the optical fiber cable plugs from scratches and dust. When the unit is not connected using an optical fiber cable, be sure to keep the protective dust cap plugged into the optical digital output jack at all times. This output terminal is PD-F50 only. C System remote control with a Pioneer stereo amplifier that has the Î mark(pd-f40 only) When a Pioneer stereo amplifier bearing the Î mark is used, connect the CONTROL IN jack on the rear panel of the CD player to the CONTROL OUT jack of the amplifier. This will enable the CD player to be controlled using the remote control unit supplied with the stereo amplifier. If you do not plan to use this feature, it is not necessary to connect the CONTROL IN/OUT jacks. The remote control unit supplied with the amplifier can be used to control Play, Stop, Pause, Track/Disc Search and Disc ange operations. For instructions regarding connections and operation, refer to the operating instructions provided with your stereo amplifier. NOTES: When a control cable is connected to the player s CONTROL IN jack, direct control of the player with the remote control unit is not possible. Operate the player with the remote control unit by aiming it at the amplifier. Be sure to connect both of the control cable's plugs securely to the CONTROL IN and CONTROL OUT jacks. Do not connect only one end of the cable. Be sure to turn off the power of the amplifier before connecting the power cord and output cable. 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 an 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. eck 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. 6 CONNECTIONS En
