Troubleshooting
Incorrect operation is often mistaken for trouble or malfunction. If you think that there is
something wrong with this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may
lie in another component. Inspect the other components and electrical appliances being
used. If the trouble cannot be rectified after checking the items below, ask your nearest
Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.
The player may not operate properly due to static electricity or other external influences. In
such cases, normal operation may be restored by unplugging the power cord then plugging
it back in.

En
Check
Was the power cord unplugged
forcibly while the player's power
was on?
This is not a problem with the
player.
Are you operating from far away?
Is the remote control sensor
exposed to direct sunlight or
strong artificial light from a fluo‑
rescent bulb, etc.?
Are the batteries dead?
Remedy
The settings may be cleared if the power
cord is unplugged or if there is a power fail‑
ure while the player's power is on. Be sure
to press STANDBY/ ON on the player's
front panel or press STANDBY/ ON on
the remote control and wait for the - OFF
- indicator on the front panel display to turn
off before unplugging the power cord. Be
particularly careful when the player's power
cord is plugged into the AC outlet of another
component, since the supply of power to the
player turns off together with the power sup‑
ply of the other component. We recommend
plugging the power cord directly into a wall
outlet, etc., whenever possible.
The volume may sound different due to
differences in how the signals are recorded
on the disc.
Operate from within a distance of 7 m (23
ft.) from the remote control sensor.
The remote control signals may not be
received properly if the remote control sen‑
sor is exposed to direct sunlight or strong
artificial light from a fluorescent bulb, etc.
Replace the batteries (page 7).
