To avoid fire hazard, the power cord should also be unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of time (for example, when on vacation).

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 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. Check the power cord once in a while.

Cautions on 3D Viewing

• Alf you should experience any fatigue or discomfort while viewing 3D images, stop viewing them.
• AChildren, particularly those under 6, may be more prone to sensitivity, so guardians should watch for any signs of fatigue or discomfort.
• AWhen viewing 3D images, rest periodically.
  Extended viewing of 3D images without rest periods could cause fatigue or discomfort.

Notes on Copyrights

• Because AACS (Advanced Access Content System) is approved as content protection system for Blu-ray Disc format, similar to use of CSS (Content Scramble System) for DVD format, certain restrictions are imposed on playback, analog signal output, etc., of AACS protected contents. The operation of this product and restrictions on this product may vary depending on your time of purchase as those restrictions may be adopted and/or changed by AACS after the production of this product.
• Furthermore, BD-ROM Mark and BD+ are additionally used as content protection systems for Blu-ray Disc format, which imposes certain restrictions including playback restrictions for BD-ROM Mark and/or BD+ protected contents. To obtain additional information on AACS, BD-ROM Mark, BD+, or this product, please contact an authorized Customer Service Center.
• Many BD-ROM/DVD discs are encoded with copy protection. Because of this, you should only connect your player directly to your TV, not to a VCR. Connecting to a VCR results in a distorted picture from copy-protected discs.
• Under the U.S. Copyright laws and Copyright laws of other countries, unauthorized recording, use, display, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, BD-ROM discs, DVDs, CDs and other materials may subject you to civil and/or criminal liability.

Important Notice for TV colour system

The colour system of this player differs according to currently playing discs.

For example, when the player plays the disc recorded in the NTSC colour system, the image is output as an NTSC signal.

Only the multi system colour TV can receive all signals output from the player.

• If you have a PAL colour system TV, you will see just distorted images when using discs or video contents recorded in NTSC.
• The multi system colour TV changes the colour system automatically according to input signals. In case that the colour system is not changed automatically, turn it off and then on to see normal images on screen.
• Even if the disc recorded in NTSC colour system are well displayed on your TV, these may not be recorded correctly on your recorder.

The batteries included with the player have been provided to allow you to check product operation and may not last long. We recommend using alkaline batteries that have a longer life.

WARNING

- Do not use or store batteries in direct sunlight or other excessively hot place, such as inside a car or near a heater. This can cause batteries to leak, overheat, explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the life or performance of batteries.

Caution

• Do not use any batteries other than the ones specified. Also, do not use a new battery together with an old one.

• When loading the batteries into the remote control, set them in the proper direction, as indicated by the polarity marks (⊕ and ⊖).

• Do not heat batteries, disassemble them, or throw them into flames or water.

• Batteries may have different voltages, even if they look similar. Do not use different kinds of batteries together.
• To prevent leakage of battery fluid, remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the remote control for a long period of time (1 month or more). If the fluid should leak, wipe it carefully off the inside of the case, then insert new batteries. If a battery should leak and the fluid should get on your skin, flush it off with large quantities of water.
• When disposing of used batteries, please comply with governmental regulations or environmental public institution's rules that apply in your country/area.
• When inserting the batteries, make sure not to damage the springs on the battery's (−) terminals. This can cause batteries to leak or overheat.

Caution

• Be careful not to tighten screws excessively. If excessive force is used to tighten screws, the threads of screw and/or nut may be damaged. Use a middle-sized manual screwdriver during assembly. Do not use power screwdrivers or oversized screwdrivers that may exert excessive force on the screws and nuts. Confirm that no foreign matter is stuck to the base or the lower cabinet during assembly. If the unit is assembled with foreign matter stuck between the base and lower cabinet, the unit may not be assembled securely, resulting in tipping or falling.
• Do not stand on the speaker stand base of the tall speaker to push or swing the speaker. The speaker may fall and break, or someone may be injured. Pay special attention to children.

Wall mounting the speaker for MCS-838, MCS-737

The center speaker have a mounting hole which can be used to mount the speaker on the wall.

Before mounting

Remember that the speaker system is heavy and that its weight could cause the screws to work loose, or the wall material to fail to support it, resulting in the speaker falling. Make sure that the wall you intend to mount the speakers on is strong enough to support them. Do not mount on plywood or soft surface walls.

Mounting screws are not supplied. Use screws suitable for the wall material and support the weight of the speaker.

Caution

• If you are unsure of the qualities and strength of the wall, consult a professional for advice.
• Pioneer is not responsible for any accidents or damage that result from improper installation.

Additional notes on speaker for MCS-838, MCS-737

Install the main front left and right speakers at an equal distance from the TV.

Precautions:

These speakers are not magnetically shielded and so should not be placed near a TV or monitor. Magnetic storage media (such as floppy discs and tape or video cassettes) should also not be kept close to these speakers.

Do not attach the front/surround speakers and subwoofer to a wall or ceiling. They may fall off and cause injury.

Positioning the system for MCS-838, MCS-737

The following illustration shows an example of positioning the system. Note that the illustrations in these instructions differ from the actual unit for explanation purposes. For the best possible surround sound, all the speakers other than the subwoofer should be placed at the same distance from the listening position (A).
