Using and taking care of d iscs Handling discs Hold the disc by its edges when handl ing so as not to leave fingerprints, dir t or scratches on either side of the disc . Damaged or dirty discs can affect playba ck performance . If a disc becomes marked with fingerp rints, dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry clot h. Wipe lightly from the ce nter of the disc using straight strokes. D on’t wipe the disc surface with circular strokes. If necessary, use a cloth soak ed in alcohol, or a commercially available CD /DVD cleaning kit to clean a disc more tho roughly. Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents suc h as those designed for cleanin g vinyl records. Storing discs Avoid leaving discs in excessivel y cold, humid, or hot enviro nments (including under dir ect sunlight ). Don’t glu e paper or pu t stickers o nto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-poi nt pen or other sharp-t ipped writin g instrum ent. These co uld all dam age the disc.

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. Although lens cleaners are co mmercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens. Problems with condensation Condensation may form inside the play er if it is brought into a warm room from outside, or if the temperature of the r oom rises quickly. Although the condensati on won’t damage the player, it may temporaril y impair perf ormance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer tempera ture for about an ho ur before switching on. Moving the system unit If you need to move the main unit, first remove a disc if there’s one in the player, then press  STANDBY/ON on the fro nt pa nel to turn the system off. Wait for GOOD BYE to disappear from the display, th en unplug the power cord. 1 Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs rotate at high speeds and may damage. Screen sizes and disc formats DVD-Video discs come in different screen aspects, ranging from TV pr ograms, which are generally 4:3, to CinemaSco pe widescreen movies 2 , with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3. Note 1 Unplugging the u nit before GOOD BYE disappears from the display may cause the sy stem to return to the fact ory settings. 2 Many widescreen discs override the system’s settings so that th e disc is shown in letterbox format regardless of the setting.

Note 1• U s i n g t h e 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or one of the 4:3 settings with a wi descreen TV, will result in distortion. • 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. • Some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even with a widescreen TV, thes e discs will still play in a ‘letterbox’ styl e. 2 Most models of the newly developed count down PAL TV system detect 50 Hz (PAL )/60 Hz (NTSC) and automatically switch vertical amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical shri nkage. However, in some cases, the image may appear without color. If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold c ontrol, you may not be able t o wa tch NTSC discs because of picture roll. If the T V has a V-Hold control, adjust it until the picture stops rolling. On some TVs, the picture may shrink vertically, leaving black bands at the top and bottom of the screen.
