components to this receiver, including the
speakers.
CAUTION
!
Handle the power cord by the plug part. 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
electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of
furniture, or other object on the power cord or
pinch the cord in any other way. Never make
a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables.
The power cords should be routed so that they
are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged
power cord can cause a fire or give you an
electric shock. Check the power cord once in a
while. If you find it damaged, ask your nearest
Pioneer authorized independent service
company for a replacement.

supplied with this unit.

removing the mains plug from the wall
socket when not in regular use, e.g., when on
vacation.
1 Plug the supplied power cord into the
AC IN socket on the back of the receiver.
