Home theater sound setup
Depending on the size and characteristics of your room, you can place your speakers in one of two ways using this system:
- Standard surround 5-spot setup - This is a standard multichannel surround sound speaker setup for optimal 5.1 channel home theater sound.

- Front surround 3-spot setup - This setup is ideal when rear surround speaker placement isn't possible or you want to avoid running long speaker cables in your listening area. Use this setup together with the Front Surround modes to take advantage of wall and ceiling reflections for a very realistic surround effect.

After placing your speakers, complete Setting the channel levels below then refer to Speakers settings on page 21 to complete your surround sound setup.
Setting the channel levels
Set the relative channel levels from your main listening position.2
1 Press SHIFT+TEST TONE.
The test tone is output in the following order (from the speakers active in the current listening mode):
L-Front left speaker

R-Front right speaker
- SR - Right surround speaker
- SL - Left surround speaker
- SW - Subwoofer3
2 Use the VOLUME + / - button to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.
3 Use the / (cursor up/down) buttons to adjust the speaker levels in turn.

Chapter 4
More tuner features: RDS
An introduction to RDS
Radio Data System (RDS) is a system used by most FM radio stations to provide listeners with various kinds of information—the name of the station and the kind of show they're broadcasting, for example.
One feature of RDS is that you can search by type of program. For example, you can search for a station that's broadcasting a show with the program type, JAZZ.
You can search the following program types:
NEWS - News
AFFAIRS - Current Affairs
INFO - General Information
SPORT-Sport
EDUCATE - Educational
DRAMA - Radio plays, etc.
CULTURE - National or regional culture, theater, etc.
SCIENCE - Science and technology
VARIED - Usually talk-based material, such as quiz shows or interviews.
POP M - Pop music
ROCK M - Rock music
EASY M - Easy listening
LIGHT M - 'Light' classical music
CLASSICS - 'Serious' classical music
OTHER M - Music not fitting above categories
WEATHER - Weather reports
FINANCE - Stock market reports, commerce, trading, etc.
CHILDREN - Programs for children
SOCIAL - Social affairs
RELIGION - Programs concerning religion
PHONE IN - Public expressing their views by phone
TRAVEL-Holiday-type travel rather than traffic announcements
LEISURE - Leisure interests and hobbies JAZZ-Jazz
COUNTRY - Country music NATION M - Popular music in a language other than English
OLDIES - Popular music from the '50s and '60s FOLK M - Folk music
DOCUMENT - Documentary
Displaying RDS information
Use the DISPLAY button to display the different types of RDS information available.2
Press DISPLAY for RDS information.
Each press changes the display as follows:
- Radio Text (RT) - Messages sent by the radio station. For example, a talk radio station may provide a phone number as RT.
- Program Service Name (PS) - The name of the radio station.
- Program Type (PTY) - This indicates the kind of program currently being broadcast.
SEARCH-PTY search (see below) - Current tuner frequency
Searching for RDS programs
You can search for a program type listed above.
1 Press the TUNER button for the FM band.3
2 Press DISPLAY repeatedly until SEARCH appears in the display.
3 Use / (cursor left/right) to select the program type you want to hear.
4 Press ENTER to start the search.
The system searches the station presets for a match. If it finds one, searching stops for 5 sec.
5 If you want to keep listening to the station, press ENTER within the 5 seconds.
If you don't press ENTER, searching resumes.

Note
In addition, there are three other program types, TEST, ALARM, and NONE. ALARM and TEST are used for emergency announcements. You can't search for these, but the tuner will switch automatically to this RDS broadcast signal. NONE appears when a program type cannot be found.
2 If any noise is picked up while displaying the RT scroll, some characters may be displayed incorrectly.
- If you see NO RADIO TEXT DATA in the RT display, it means no RT data is sent from the broadcast station. The display will automatically switch to the PS data display (if no PS data, the frequency is displayed).
- In the PTY display, NO DATA or NONE may be shown. In this case, the PS display is shown after a few seconds. 3 RDS is only possible in the FM band.

About DivX® VOD content
In order to play DivX VOD (video on demand) content on this player, you first need to register the player with your DivX VOD content provider. You do this by generating a DivX VOD registration code, which you submit to your provider.2

Important
- DivX VOD content is protected by a DRM (Digital Rights Management) system. This restricts playback of content to specific, registered devices.
- If you load a disc that contains DivX VOD content not authorized for your player, the message Authorization Error is displayed and the content will not play.
Displaying your DivX VOD registration code
1 Press HOME MENU and select 'Initial Settings'.

Note
1- Not all discs use Parental Lock, and will play without requiring the password first.
If you forget your password, you'll need to reset the player to register a new password. (see Resetting the system on page 36). 2 Resetting the player (as described in Resetting the system on page 36) will not cause you to lose your registration code.
2 Select 'Options', then 'DivX VOD'.

3 Select 'Display'.
Your 8-digit registration code is displayed.

Make a note of the code as you will need it when you register with a DivX VOD provider.
Playing DivX® VOD content
Some DivX VOD content may only be playable a fixed number of times. When you load a disc containing this type of DivX VOD content, the remaining number of plays is shown on-screen and you then have the option of playing the disc (thereby using up one of the remaining plays), or stopping. If you load a disc that contains expired DivX VOD content (for example, content that has zero remaining plays), the message Rental Expired is displayed.
If your DivX VOD content allows an unlimited number of plays, then you may load the disc into your player and play the content as often as you like, and no message will be displayed.

Connecting external antennas
For an external AM antenna, use 5-6 meters of vinyl-insulated wire and set up either indoors or outdoors. Leave the loop antenna connected.

Note
-
When Recording mode is on, most sound features cannot be used. The display will briefly blink REC MODE if you try and use a prohibited function while Recording mode is on.
-
When Recording mode is off, the audio from the AV CONNECTOR output may be interrupted, depending on the operation.
The Recording mode switches off if you change the input function (DVD/CD, TUNER, etc.) or switch the power off.
For an external FM antenna, Use a PAL connector to hook up an external FM antenna.

Using the SCART AV output
There are two different kinds of video outputs you can use to connect this system to your TV. The SCART output should give you better picture quality than the standard composite video output. The SCART AV connector functions as both a video and audio output.
- Use a commercially available SCART cable to connect the AV CONNECTOR to your TV.

Hold the disc by its edges when handling so as not to leave fingerprints, dirt or scratches on either side of the disc. Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback performance.
If a disc becomes marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean using a soft, dry cloth.

Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using straight strokes. Don't wipe the disc surface with circular strokes.
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 such as those designed for cleaning vinyl records.
Storing discs
Avoid leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments (including under direct sunlight). Don't glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could all damage the disc.
Discs to avoid
Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If a disc is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged, don't risk using it in your player— you could end up damaging the unit.
This unit is designed for use with conventional, fully circular discs only. Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of shaped discs.
Installation and maintenance
Hints on installation
We want you to enjoy using this system for years to come, so please bear in mind the following points when choosing a location:
Do...
Use in a well-ventilated room.
Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table, shelf or stereo rack.
Don't...
X Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or humidity, including near radiators and other heat-generating appliances.
× Place on a window sill or other place where the system will be exposed to direct sunlight.
× Use in an excessively dusty or damp environment.
× Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other component in your stereo system that becomes hot in use.
X Use near a television or monitor as you may experience interference—especially if the television uses an indoor antenna.
X Use in a kitchen or other room where the system may be exposed to smoke or steam.
X Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth—this may prevent proper cooling of the system unit.
× Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large enough to support all four of the system unit's feet.
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 commercially available, we do not recommend using them since some may damage the lens.
Problems with 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 performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour 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 front panel to turn the system off. Wait for GOOD BYE to disappear from the display, then unplug the power cord. 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 programs, which are generally 4:3, to CinemaScope widescreen movies1, with an aspect ratio of up to about 7:3. Televisions also come in different aspect ratios; 'standard' 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.2

Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are shown with black bars top and bottom.

Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widespread discs are shown with the left and right sides cropped. Although the picture looks larger, you don't actually see the whole picture.
TV system setting
The default setting of this system is AUTO, and unless you notice that the picture is distorted when playing some discs, you should leave it set to AUTO. If you find picture distortion with some discs, set the TV system to match your country or region's system. However, this may restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. See the table for the kinds of discs compatible with each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).
1 Switch the unit into standby, then press SHIFT+SYSTEM SETUP.
2 Press ENTER.
The display briefly shows WELCOME and then the new TV system setting, AUTO, NTSC or PAL. The player then switches on.
If you need to switch the TV system setting again, switch the player into standby and repeat the process.
| Disc Player setting Type Format NTSC PAL AUTO | |||
| DVD/Super VCD/ Video CD/DivX Video | NTSC PAL | NTSC PAL | NTSC PAL |
| NTSC PAL | |||
| CD/MP3/WMA/ JPEG/no disc | — | NTSC PAL | NTSC or PAL |
Note
1 Many widescen discs overide the system's settings so that the disc is shown in letterbox format regardless of the setting.
2 • Some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so even with a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a 'letterbox' style.
Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a standard 4:3 TV, or one of the 4:3 settings with a widenscreen 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.
3 Most models of the newly developed countdown PAL TV system detect 50Hz (PAL)/60 Hz (NTSC) and automatically switch vertical amplitude, resulting in a display without vertical shrinkage. However, in some cases, the image may appear without color. If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you may not be able to watch NTSC discs because of picture roll. If the TV 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.
Troubleshooting
Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is something wrong with this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in another component. Investigate the other components and electrical appliances being used. If the trouble cannot be rectified even after exercising the checks listed below, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.
- If the system does not operate normally due to external effects such as static electricity disconnect the plug from the outlet and insert again to return to normal operating conditions.
General
| Problem | Remedy |
| The power does not turn on, or switches off suddenly (an error message may be displayed at startup). | ·Leave the unit plugged in, wait for one minute, then switch back on. ·Make sure there are no loose strands of wire touching the unit. This could cause the system to shut off automatically. ·Check that the speakers are connected correctly. ·Make sure the voltage of the mains power source is correct for the model. ·Try reducing the volume level. ·If the problem persists, take it to your nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer for servicing. |
| No sound is output when a function is selected. | ·If you're using the line input, make sure the component is connected correctly (see Connecting auxiliary components on page 24). ·Press MUTE on the remote control to turn muted off. |
| No image is output when playing discs. | ·Make sure the TV is connected correctly (refer to the Setup Guide). |
| No sound from surround or center speakers. | ·Refer to Setting the channel levels on page 5 to check the speaker levels. ·When TUNER or LINE is selected, you can only hear the source in stereo. Switch the input source to DVD/CD for multichannel sound. ·Check that the Recording mode hasn't been switched on (see Recording mode on page 24). ·Check that you haven't selected the STEREO mode (see Listening in surround sound on page 10). ·Connect the speakers properly (refer to the Setup Guide). |
| Can't operate the remote control. | ·Replace the batteries (refer to the Setup Guide). ·Operate within 7 m, 30° of the remote sensor (refer to the Setup Guide). ·Remove any obstacles or operate from another position. ·Avoid exposing the remote sensor on the front panel to direct light. |

DVD/CD/Video CD player
| Problem | Remedy |
| The disc is ejected automatically after loading. | • Clean the disc and align the disc properly in the disc guide. • If the region number on a DVD-video disc does not match the number on the player, the disc cannot be used (see DVD Video regions on page 31). • Allow time for any condensation inside the player to evaporate. Avoid using the player near an air-conditioning unit. |
| Playback not possible. | • If the disc is loaded upside down, reload the disc with label side face up. |
| Picture playback stops and buttons cannot be used. | • Press (stop), then play to start playback again. • Switch the power off once, then on again using the front panel STANDBY/ON button. |
| Settings are canceled. | • When the power is cut, settings will be canceled. |
| No picture/No color. | • Check that connections are correct and that plugs are inserted fully. • Check the manual of the TV/monitor to make sure the settings are correct. |
| Screen is stretched or aspect doesn't change. | • The TV Screen setting is incorrect. Set the TV Screen option to match the TV/monitor you're using (see Video Output settings on page 20). |
| When recorded on a VCR or passed through an AV selector, there is disturbance in the playback picture. | • This system uses copy-protection technology which may prevent recording or cause picture problems when connected through a VCR or AV selector. This is not a malfunction. |
| Picture disturbance during playback or dark. | • This player is compatible with Macro-Vision System copy guard. Some discs include a copy prevention signal, and when this type of disc is played back, stripes etc., may appear on some sections of the picture depending on the TV. This is not a malfunction. • Discs respond differently to particular player functions. This may result in the screen becoming black for a brief instant or shaking slightly when the function is executed. These problems are largely due to differences between discs and disc content and are not malfunctions of this player. |
| Noticeable difference in DVD and CD volume. | • DVDs and CDs use different recording methods. This is not a malfunction. |
| CD-ROM disc is not recognized by the system. | • Make sure that the CD-ROM was recorded using the ISO 9660 disc format. See Disc compatibility table on page 29 for other disc compatibility information. |
| Files don't show up in the Disc Navigator/ Photo Browser. | • The files on the disc must be named with the correct file extension: .mp3 for MP3 files; .wma for WMA files; .jpg for JPEG files (upper or lower-case is OK). See Disc compatibility table on page 29 for more on this. |
| Can't play WMA files. | • The files were recorded using DRM (digital rights management). This is not a malfunction. |
Tuner
| Problem | Remedy |
| Considerable noise in radio broadcasts. | ·Connect the AM antenna (refer to the Setup Guide) and adjust the direction and position for best reception. You may also connect an additional internal or external AM antenna (refer to Connecting auxiliary components on page 24). ·Fully extend the FM wire antenna, position for best reception, and secure to a wall. You may also connect an outdoor FM antenna (see Connecting external antennas on page 24). ·Turn off other equipment that may be causing the noise or move it further away. |
| Auto tuning does not pick up some stations. | ·The radio signal is weak. Auto tuning will only detect radio stations with a good signal. For more sensitive tuning, connect an outdoor antenna. |
