Taking care of your player and discs
General
Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole and edge.
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 on to discs. Do not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped
writing instrument to write on the disc.
Damaged and shaped discs
Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged discs as they may damage the player.
Cleaning discs
Fingerprints and dist on discs can affect playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry cloth, wiping
the disc lightly from the center to the outside edge as shown below.
Cleaning the unit’s exterior
Unplug the unit before cleaning.
Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped
in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with
a dry cloth.
Do not use use furniture wax or cleaners. Never use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or other
chemicals on or near this unit.
If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning cloth, read the instructions carefully before use. These
cloths may leave smear marks on half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens, finish with a dry cloth.
Cleaning the pickup lens
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. We do not
recommend using commercially available lens cleaners for CD players.
Condensation
Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the
temperature of the room rises quickly. Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it may
temporarily impair its performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour
before switching on.
Moving the player
If you need to move the player, first press STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the player off.
Wait for -OFF- to disappear from the display, then unplug the power cable. Never lift or move the unit
during playback—discs rotate at a high speed and may be damaged.
Screen sizes and disc formats
DVD-Video discs come in several different screen aspect ratios, ranging from TV programs, which
are generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.
Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.
Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen setting (page 18) of this player should be set to 16:9
(Wide).
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV controls to select how the picture
is presented. Your TV may offer various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came with
your TV for details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even though you have a
widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a ‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and bottom
of the screen.
Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen setting (page 18) of this player should be set to 4:3 (Letter
Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan), depending on which you prefer.
Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as
these can cause the disc to warp slightly during
playback causing distortion in the picture and/or
sound.
This player is designed to be used only with
conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use
shaped discs. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising
in connection with the use of shaped discs.
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.
Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are
shown with black bars top and bottom.
Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are
shown with the left and right sides cropped.
Although the picture looks larger, you don’t
actually see the whole picture.
