Features
This player has been designed to provide CD/DVD playback features and functions demanded by professional disco club DJs and VJs. It is a professional DVD player equipped with operational ease, sound quality, and functions superior to those found on the professional analog players conventionally used by DJs.
JOG DIAL
Large-diameter (206 mm) dial for operating sensitivity exceeding that possible with conventional analog turntables
PITCH BEND
Changes playback pitch in proportion to the direction and speed of jog dial rotation.
- SCRONTH PLAY
In VINYL mode, when the top surface of the jog dial is touched, playback stops and starts in response to the direction and speed of jog dial rotation. The user can also adjust the sensitivity of start-up when the jog dial is touched and released, making possible new DJ techniques.
- FRAME SEARCH
When the jog dial is rotated during pause, the pause position is changed in units of individual frames (1/75th second).
SUPER FAST SEARCH
When the jog dial is rotated while depressing the manual search button, track search button or title search button, the search will be performed more quickly than the conventional search or track search (or title/chapter search) functions.
- HYPER JOG MODE
In VINYL mode, when the jog dial is rotated, the amount of sound or image change corresponding to the dial rotation doubles. Performance possibilities are enhanced by employing this function together with the ordinary mode.
ON JOG DISPLAY
The center of the jog dial is furnished with a display providing variety of information, including disc status, cue point position, audio/video memory status, jog touch detect display, and VINYL mode.
WAVE DISPLAY
With an analog record, the user could look for the breaks in the grooves to use as mix points and end points. In the same way, the WAVE display reveals track breaks in advance, allowing the DJ to use them as break points.
CUE/LOOP MEMORY
Cue points and loop points can be recorded for each disc on the external SD memory cards, and called up later as desired.
HOT CUE
Up to 3 hot cue points (A, B, C) can be recorded in advance and called up later for instant playback from those points. Hot cues can be used not only to record normal cue points, but also for loop point playback.
REVERSE PLAY
By pulling the DIRECTION select switch toward the front (REV position), tracks can be played in reverse.
TEMPO CONTROL
High-performance 100mm slider for precise adjustment of track speed
Using a digital display with 0.02% increments (within control range ± 6% ), the user can accu rately match the tempos of playback tracks.
TEMPO CONTROL RANGE
Four tempo control ranges are provided: ± 6% , ± 10% , ± 16% , and WIDE.
TEMPO CONTROL RESET
This control allows tempo to be reset to the default 0 % status instantly, regardless of the slider position.
- MASTER TEMPO
Allows pitch to be maintained while changing track speed.
CUE
- BACK CUE
By previously recording a cue point, it can be returned to instantly by pressing the CUE button during subsequent playback, thus starting playback again from that point.
- AUTO CUE
This function cues a track by skipping the non-recorded portion before the beginning of music, setting the player to standby mode immediately before music begins. In this way, playback can begin instantly when the PLAY/PAUSE (▶/II) button is pressed.
CUE POINT SAMPLER
This function allows one-touch playback from the cue points stored in memory, a convenient function for confirming cue points and sampling the points stored.
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP
Allows simple setting and canceling of playback loops. Loops can be set quickly during track playback; also allows quick setting of a loop immediately before the end of a track, thus preventing the track from ending. Finally, an ADJUST mode has been added to allow one-touch changing of loop-out points.
RELOOP
Once set, a loop can be returned to any number of times
After canceling loop play, pressing the RELOOP/EXIT button causes playback to return and begin again from the previously set loop. Turning the function ON/OFF in time with the track's rhythm allows a variety of new performance possibilities.
EMERGENCY LOOP
Pressing the EMERGENCY LOOP button causes the current position (the point where the button was pressed) to act as a loop-in point, with a loop-out point being set automatically for loop play.
PLAYING ADDRESS
With an analog record, the position of the stylus gives the operator an immediate grasp of the progress of playback. In the same way, the play address display shows a bar graph that provides an immediate visual grasp of the track's playback progress. The current position in the track is indicated by the length of the bar; in addition, the bar flashes to warn that playback is approaching the end of the track.
FADER START
When the player is connected to a DJ mixer (DJM-600, DJM-300, DJM-909, DJM-707, DJM-500 or DJM-3000 (all sold separately)), the mixer's fader operation can be used to perform quick start and back cue.
MULTI READ
Discs readable on this player include CD-R/CD-RW (recorded in audio CD format), and DVD-R/DVD-RW (recorded in video format). However, since this player uses high-speed data read for the purposes of its DJ operations, some discs may not play back properly depending on the characteristics of the disc and the recorder, as well as a result of dirt or scratches on the disc, etc.
PREVIEW MONITOR OUTPUT
This is an auxiliary video output that produces an overlay display of operating information on the main video output screen, and provides the DJ with a visual aids when operating the unit. During use of DVD play, cue points, loop points, and hot cue points are displayed on a small screen overlain on the main output, making possible interactive DJ operations.
PROGRESSIVE OUTPUT
This player is equipped with a progressive scan output connector which supports video signals with 525p frequency (component output connector). When connected to a television monitor equipped with a component video input connector for progressive scan (525p), high definition images will be output, with twice the data produced by conventional interlaced scan televisions.
LEGATO PRO
The player is equipped with a digital filter that uses up-sampling technology (DVD: 48 kHz → 192 kHz; CD: 44.1 kHz → 176.4 kHz) for reproducing audio information lost in some disc (DVD, CD) formats.
HI-BIT
This function extends the bit length of audio data. By transforming 16-bit or 20-bit data to 24-bits, even minute signals can be reproduced with smooth, finely defined sound.
About DVD playback in DJ mode
Since various special operations are supported in DJ mode, certain limitations are placed on normal playback functions such as SCAN. For this reason, operations which are possible in the NORMAL mode may be limited or disabled when attempted in DJ mode. In short, if you wish to use all ordinary DVD play functions, use the NORMAL mode.
Limited or disabled functions (when in DJ mode)
- Cannot play sub-pictures (can't display subtitles or onscreen buttons)
- Cannot use password input command (when using interactive commands, the same operations may not produce the same results as when in NORMAL mode).
- May only play midway through titles.
- May skip certain parts of titles.
- Playback may be temporarily interrupted when switching audio functions.
- Playback may be temporarily interrupted when changing viewing angle.
- Cannot use pan-and-scan function.
- The title itself may disallow use of DJ operations. In this case, DJ operations are prohibited, and the same operations are performed as when in NORMAL mode.
Handling Precautions
Installation location
- Placing and using the player for long periods on heat-generating sources such as amplifiers or near spotlights, etc. will affect product performance. Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.
- Install this player as far as possible away from tuners and TV sets. The player installed in close proximity to such equipment may cause noise or degradation of the picture.
Noise may be noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. In such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna or turn off power to the player.
- When the unit is used in a loud-sound environment, e.g., near a speaker, sound skip may occur. Install the unit away from the speaker or reduce the listening volume.
- Place this unit on a level surface and a stable platform.
Take adequate note of the following precautions when preparing a place for installation:
Be sure the player, including its video, audio and power supply cords, does not touch vibrating materials. Any vibration other than that transmitted through the insulators may cause the disc to skip. Take special care when using the player while it is installed in a carrying case.

Leave space to allow for heat dissipation.

Moving the unit
■ Never move the unit during playback!
During playback, a disc rotates at very high speed; moving the player during playback may result in scratches or other damage to the disc.
■ When moving the unit is necessary
Before moving the unit, remove any disc and disconnect the power. Malfunctions or damage may result if the unit is moved with a disc loaded.
About the carrying case
The upper surface of the jog dial is equipped with a touch-sensitive switch. When placing the player in its carrying case, avoid placing any pressure on the jog dial.
Condensation
When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside the unit and impair its performance. In such cases, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise the room temperature gradually.
Cleaning the player
To clean the player wipe with a polishing or a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, moisten a soft cloth with a weak solution of neutral detergent (diluted in five to six parts water), wring the cloth well, and wipe away the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which will damage the unit.
About the lens cleaner
The player's pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use. If for some reason, the lens becomes soiled and malfunctions, contact your nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens cleaners for DVD (CD) players are commercially available, but special care should be exercised in their use as some may cause damage to the lens.
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. When you find it damaged, ask your nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement.
Regarding data recorded on memory cards
It is the users responsibility to make regular backups of important memory card data. Pioneer disclaims any responsibility for damage to or loss of memory card data, or other incidental damages arising from incompatibilities of the player and memory card, static electricity or other external causes.

Regarding copyright
- Unauthorized copying, broadcasting, public performance, or rental of copyrighted discs is prohibited by law.
- This product incorporates copyright protection technology that is protected by method claims of certain U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights owned by Macrovision Corporation and other rights owners.

Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.
Disc composition
Digital Versatile Discs (DVD)
DVD video, DVD-R or DVD-RW discs are recorded in units called "titles," with each title being divided into one or more sub-divisions called "chapters." Further, some, discs are furnished with menus for navigating the disc, but menus may not be included with all titles. In the case of commercial films, a single movie normally corresponds to a single title. On so-called "karaoke" discs, each song track composes a single title, although there are some exceptions to this rule, so care is needed when using search functions.

Compact Discs (CD)
In the case of compact discs, each disc is divided into units of individual tracks (normally, each song is contained on a single track). In addition, tracks may have sub-divisions called index numbers.

Handling discs
- When holding discs, do not touch their signal surfaces. Hold by the edges, or by one edge and the center hole.

- Do not affix gummed labels or tape to the disc surface. Also, do not scratch or damage the label.

Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Do not use damaged, cracked or warped discs.

■ Do not play a disc with a special shape
- Do not play a disc having other shape than a circular disc, such as heart shaped disc. Otherwise malfunction may occur.


Storing discs
- Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conventional analog audio records. Be careful not to allow discs to warp. Always store discs in their cases vertically, avoiding locations with high heat, humidity, or extremely low temperatures. Avoid leaving discs in cars; the interior of a car in direct sunlight can become extremely hot.
- Always read and abide by the precautionary notes listed on disc labels.
■ Cleaning discs
- Always keep your discs clean by wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer edge.
- When cleaning discs, the use of a commercial CD/DVD cleaning kit is recommended.

- If a disc becomes very dirty, dampen a soft cloth with water, (be sure to wring it out well) and wipe the away dirt gently. Remove any water drops with another soft, dry cloth.
- Do not use record cleaning sprays or anti-static agents on discs. Never clean discs with benzene, thinner, or other volatile solvents or damage to the disc surface may result.
Regarding DVD-R/RW, CD-R/RW discs
- Due to the unique construction of DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs, leaving them for extended periods of time in the pause (or cue standby) mode at a single point may result in the discs' becoming difficult to play at that place. The same symptom may also occur if the loop function is used to play back a single point on the disc excessively.
As a result, users are advised to construct backup archive discs when playing discs containing important data.

Playing images from the DVJ-X1 on a television set
The example shown here is an illustration meant to depict the general display contents, and may differ somewhat from actual monitor appearance.
This unit is equipped with both main video output (VIDEO OUT) and preview video output (PREVIEW OUT) connectors.
In NORMAL mode, both Video OUT and Preview OUT produce the same video signals.
In DJ mode, the outputs of the two connectors are different, as indicated below. Even in DJ mode, however, if a non-supported DJ operation is attempted, the outputs will be the same as in NORMAL mode.
VIDEO OUT
This outputs only the DVD playback image; it should be connected to the main publicly viewed monitor.
PREVIEW OUT
This outputs the images used by the DJ when operating the unit, and includes various additional guide messages and menus.

Reading: Recall hot cue, or cue point
Connections
Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.
1. Connections to DJ mixer (DJM-600, DJM-500, DJM-300, DJM-909, DJM-707 or DJM-3000) (audio output and control connector)
Using the accessory audio cable, connect the white plug to the L (left) connector, and connect the red plug to the R (right) connector. By connecting the accessory control cord, the player can be controlled from the mixer, allowing fader start play and back cue operations.

Connection example DJM-600:
- Connect similarly to the above when using DJM-300 or DJM-500.
- When connecting DJM-909 or DJM-707, use the accessory audio cable to connect CH-1 CD to PLAYER A, and the CH-2 CD to PLAYER B.
- In the case of the DJM-3000, connect A PLAYER to LINE 1 of CH-1, connect B PLAYER to LINE 3 of CH-2.
- When connecting this player to other audio mixers, the player's AUDIO OUT connector should be connected to the mixer's LINE IN connector or AUX connector (★ Do not connect the player to a mixer's PHONO connector, since sound will be distorted and proper playback will not result).
2. Control cord connection for relay play
By using the accessory control cord to connect two DJ players, automatic relay play can be performed between the two units. (P.38)

3. Connection to stereo amplifier (without DJ mixer)

4. Connection to component equipped with digital input connector
CD recorder or amplifier with digital input connector, etc.

Setting the mode select switch (MODE NORMAL/DJ) (rear panel)
When the unit is used normally as a DJ DVD player, the mode select switch should be set to the "DJ" position. If the switch position is changed during playback, playback will stop and after the stop, playback will begin from the beginning of the disc.
When set to DJ (DJ mode):
- During DVD playback, no signals will be output from the digital output connector. In addition, subtitles and certain other functions and operations are not supported.
- During CD playback, the digital connector outputs only audio data without sub-codes. However, the mode is fixed at 44.1kHz , with the result that some limitations may be experienced in recording or other functions when CD recorders and certain other components are connected. For details, consult the Operating Instructions for the component to be connected.
- Some functions may be limited or disabled during DVD playback ( P.3, "About DVD playback in DJ mode").
When set to NORMAL (NORMAL mode):
- The digital connector outputs digital data including sub-codes, but the player's DJ functions are disabled (P.7).
- When a non-supported operation is attempted, the display shows the message "NORMAL".
- When power is turned ON, if the mode select switch is set to "NORMAL", the display shows the message "NORMAL"
- If you wish to use all ordinary functions during DVD playback, set the unit to NORMAL mode (P.3, "About DVD playback in DJ mode").
Note:
Most DJ functions (cue, loop, reloop, tempo adjust, hot cue, jog dial, reverse play) are not supported when the mode select switch is set to "NORMAL". In addition, the pause mode is silent, not audible.
5. Connection to television monitor (composite video/S-Video)
This player is equipped with two video output connectors: a main video output connector (VIDEO OUT) which outputs only the DVD playback image, and a preview video output connector (PREVIEW OUT) which produces a variety of data displays used by the DJ during a performance.
Each of the television monitors is connected by using standard video cables (RCA plug) or S-Video cables.
The main video output is also equipped with a BNC type output connector (COMPOSITE), allowing the use of a BNC connector if desired.
* Only one video cable is provided as an accessory. S-Video cables and BNC connector cables are not provided.

Main monitor
Connect the player's video output directly to a television monitor, not to a video deck (if connected through a video deck, the copy guard function may prevent proper playback).
6. Connection to television monitor (component video)
This connection is recommended if the main monitor is equipped with component video input (Y / P_B / P_R) , since a higher fidelity video image will be produced.

Main monitor
Cannot be connected to a Hi-Vision component video input connector.
7. Connection to video mixer
Use a standard video cable (RCA plug) or S-Video cable for these connections.

8. Connecting the power cord
After all other connections are completed, connect one end of the accessory power cord to the rear-panel AC inlet, and connect the other end (power plug) to a wall outlet or to the auxiliary outlet on an amplifier.
Setup
Initial setup is required before playing DVDs.
Setting the TV system
The default setting of this player is AUTO, and unless you notice that the picture is distorted when playing some discs, you should leave it set to AUTO.
If you experience picture distortion with some discs, set the TV system to match your country or region's system. Doing this, however, may restrict the kinds of disc you can watch. The table below shows what kinds of disc are compatible with each setting (AUTO, PAL and NTSC).
| Disc | Output format | |||
| Type | Format | Player setting | ||
| NTSC | PAL | AUTO | ||
| DVD | NTSC | NTSC | MOD. PAL | NTSC |
| PAL | — | PAL | PAL | |
| CD, No disc | NTSC | PAL | PAL or NTSC | |
To change the TV system setting, turn on the power while holding the TITLE+ button depressed, then continue holding the button depressed for 2 seconds.
The TV system changes as follows:
AUTO NTSC
NTSC PAL
PAL AUTO
The display indicates the new setting.
Note that you have to switch the player into power off before each change.
How to perform setup
Setup operations are performed by first pressing the SETUP button to display the Setup Menu on the screen; the cursor button is used to select items, and items are confirmed with the ENTER button.
The cursor button contains four sensors ( ) in a single button. Press the top () , bottom () , left () and right () sides of the button to move in the corresponding directions on the screen.
Settings are performed via a "Setup Navigator" which uses a dialog format to make basic settings of television and amplifier; a "Setup Menu Mode" is used for individual settings. First press the SETUP button to start the "Setup Navigator".
"Setup Menu Mode" includes "Basic" and "Expert"; the latter mode allows more detailed settings.

About MOD. (Modulation) PAL
SHRINK
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.
- If your PAL TV does not have a V-Hold control, you may not be able to view NTSC disc because the picture may 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. This is not a malfunction; it is caused by the NTSC PAL conversion.

Set the screen aspect ratio for the television
Select the value matching the type of television connected. Select [16:9(Wide)] when a wide-screen television is connected. Most DVD movies are recorded to support wide television screens with an aspect of 16 horizontal to 9 vertical. As a result, when DVDs are viewed on conventional televisions, the image is projected at the television's aspect ratio of 4:3, causing it to appear horizontally compressed. In order to eliminate this kind of distortion, set the aspect ratio either for [4:3 (Letter Box)] or [4:3 (Pan&Scan)] when using a conventional television.
- This setting cannot be changed during playback.

4:3(Letter Box):
Select this setting when using a conventional television and you wish to view movies in letterbox format.
4:3(Pan&Scan)
Select this setting when using a conventional television and you wish to view movies in "pan and scan" format.
16:9(Wide):
Select this setting when using a widescreen (16:9) television (factory default setting)
The 4:3(Pan&Scan) format is not supported in DJ mode. If [4:3(Pan&Scan)] is selected when the unit is in DJ mode, output will be in letterbox setting.
- Some DVDs do not support changing of aspect ratio. Consult the information printed on your disc's jacket for more details.
■ Aspect ratio formats

Image is vertically compressed (appears horizontally stretched) If the image appears as shown here, set the television set's aspect ratio "normal". For details consult the Operating Instructions for your television set. |
Select video output format
When the television monitor used is connected for component video and supports progressive inputs, set this option to select the kind of player output, either interlace scan or progressive scan.

Interlace:
Select this option when the television or projector does not support progressive inputs (factory default setting).
Progressive:
This mode produces finely detailed, high-definition images and should be selected when using a television or projector that supports progressive inputs.
- If this player is set to output progressive-scan video, it's possible that the picture will appear stretched when playing discs recorded in 4:3 format. This happens when the TV's aspect ratio is set 'Full'. To see the picture in its correct aspect ratio, change the TV setting to 'Normal'.
If your TV doesn't have settings to change the aspect ratio of the picture, set this player to 16:9 (Compressed).
Note:
If you connect a TV that is not compatible with a progressive scan signal and choose one of the progressive scan settings, you will not be able to see any picture at all. With your TV connected using either the composite or S-Video terminals, choose the Interlace setting in the Component Video menu.

Loading and Removing Discs

1. Set the rear panel POWER switch to ON.
Do not attempt to force a disc into the slot when the POWER switch is turned OFF, since the disc or loading mechanism may be damaged.
2. Insert the disc into the loading slot.
- Hold the disc with label surface upwards and insert evenly into the front-panel disc loading slot.
- When using 8 cm compact discs, place the disc into an adapter first.
- Only one disc can be loaded at a time. Do not attempt to load two or more discs simultaneously, or to load a second disc when another disc is already loaded.
- When loading a disc, do not apply bending force on the disc, or attempt to force the disc into the mechanism. Also, when the loading mechanism begins to pull the disc into the player or to eject a disc, do not attempt to forcibly override the mechanism's movement, since the disc or loading mechanism may be damaged.
3. When the eject/stop mode select switch is set to UNLOCK, press the EJECT (▲) button to eject a loaded disc. If the eject/stop mode select switch is set to LOCK, during playback press the PLAY/PAUSE (▶/II) button to first stop the disc, then press the EJECT (▲) button. If a cue point has been set, during playback press the CUE button to initiate back cue, then press the EJECT (▲) button to eject the disc.
- When the button is pressed, disc rotation will stop and the disc will be ejected partway from the loading slot.
Note:
Do not attempt to press the disc back into the slot while the "EJECT" indicator is lighted. If the disc is pressed back in while the "EJECT" indicator is lighted, the loading mechanism may stop. In this case, press the EJECT (▲) button again, and do not attempt to reload the disc until the "EJECT" indicator has turned OFF.
Precautions when playing 8 cm CD singles
① When playing 8 cm CD singles, be sure to use an adapter designed for 8 cm CDs. Before loading the disc into the player, confirm that the disc is fastened correctly by the adapter's tabs. If an 8 cm disc is loaded by mistake without an adapter, immediately press the EJECT (▲) button and remove the disc. If the disc is not ejected the first time the EJECT (▲) button is pressed, press the button again.
② Use only 8 cm disc adapters that feature the logo mark (recommended compatible adapters). When mounting the disc to an adapter, confirm that the disc is able to rotate freely, and is not bent or warped.
Forced eject function
If a disc fails to be ejected when the EJECT (▲) button is pressed or otherwise when you cannot remove a disc, insert the provided pin into the forced eject hole at the front of the player (see illustration) and press to eject the disc. When using the forced eject function, be sure to following the accompanying precautions.
① Turn off the player's power and wait for at least one minute.

Attempting the forced eject function immediately after turning off the power may cause the following dangers:
- The disc may be ejected while still rotating, resulting in personal injury.
- The disc may be damaged due to the disc clamp's rotating in an unstable condition.
(2) Use only the provided accessory pin for this procedure (do not use other pointed objects). The forced eject pin is located on the bottom surface of the player.
When the accessory pin is inserted fully into the forced eject hole, the disc will be ejected from the loading slot by about 5 - 10mm . It can then be grasped with the fingers and removed.

Note:
This player does not support playback of 8 cm DVDs. Do not attempt to use adapters meant for 8 cm CDs, since the adapter may come loose during rotation, causing damage to the disc or component.

Operations Using Memory Cards D
Using memory cards
This player supports the use of SD memory cards or MultiMedia Cards for the recording of disc identification data, cue point data, loop point data, and hot cue data. Data regarding cue points and loop points include each point's position, as well as audio channel, angle, and thumbnail image.-Thumbsail images cannot be recorded, however, in the case of copy-protected discs (included those using Macrovision technologies).
Memory cards must be formatted in accordance with "SD Memory Card Specifications Part2 FILE SYSTEM SPECIFICATION Version 1.0" (commercially purchased SD memory cards are factory formatted to the above standards). Unformatted cards cannot be used (the "UNFORMAT" message will be displayed).
* When a MultiMedia card has been formatted or recorded on the CDJ-1000 or CDJ-1000MK2, it can be used only for data reading (new point information cannot be recorded to or erased from the card). Copying of the card is also not supported. If an attempt is made to record to the card, the "CALL ONLY" message will be displayed.
Memory cards formatted on computers or in digital cameras may not be usable with this player.
Loading a memory card

Insert memory cards with label-side up, and the cut-away corner pointed away from you (toward the player). Insert the card until it is pulled fully into the player.
- Removing a memory card
Confirm that the CARD indicator is not lighted, then press the memory card eject button. Pull out the card gently in a straight line.
Notes:
- When the CARD indicator is lighted, the player is currently accessing the card. Do not attempt to remove the card, and do not turn off power to the unit during card access, since the recorded data may be destroyed.
- Memory cards are precision electronic devices. Do not bend or drop them, or subject them to strong forces or impacts. Also, avoid using or storing memory cards in environments subject to static electricity or electrical noise.
- Memory cards can be broken when subjected to impacts or static electricity. Be very careful when handling them, and make regular backups of important recorded data (P. 43).
