INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
INSTALLING THE RECEIVER
÷Place the unit on a stable platform next to the television and
stereo system to be used with the unit.
÷When using the unit with a stereo system, your speakers
should be placed away from your television (or TV monitor).
÷Do not place heavy objects such as a television or TV monitor
on top of the unit.
÷Do not place the unit on top of your TV set or TV monitor. Also,
keep the unit away from devices such as cassette decks which
are sensitive to magnetic fields.
If the cassette deck is installed in the A positions as shown in
the drawing below, it may be adversely affected during
playback. If possible, it is better to install it in the B position.
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.
SURROUND SPEAKER INSTALLATION EXAMPLE
To get the best effect out of the surround system, place the
speakers as shown below.
An example for center speaker location
INSTALL THE RECEIVER IN A WELL-VENTILATED
PLACE AWAY FROM HEAT AND HUMIDITY
Do not install the unit in a location subject to direct sunlight, or
near a stove or radiator, etc. This could adversely affect the
cabinet and internal components. Also, avoid installing the unit
in a humid or dusty location. This could result in a malfunction
or accident. Do not install near a cooking stove where the unit
could be affected by smoke, steam, or heat. Avoid placing the
unit on surfaces such as shaggy carpets, beds and sofas which
may block ventilation under the unit and may cause damage.
÷The rear panel vents are designed to disperse heat from the
unit. Be careful that curtains or other items do not block the
vents.
÷ To improve heat dispersion, set the unit so that it is at least
20 cm (8 inches) away from the wall.
At least 20 cm (8 inches)
When using a single
center speaker
When using dual center
speakers
NOTE:
÷
To avoid interference with the picture on a nearby TV set, use
magnetically shielded speaker systems. This is particularly
important for the center speaker since it is usually located
closest to the TV.
÷
Position the left and right channel speakers at equal distances
from the TV set and approximately 1.8 m (6 feet) from each
other.
÷
Position the center speaker above, below, or behind the TV set.
Sound may not appear to coincide with the picture if you
position it next to the TV set.
÷
Rear speakers are best positioned slightly above ear level.
You can set this unit to match the requirements and
specifications of your stereo system’s speakers (whether or
not center speaker(s), rear speakers or a sub-woofer are
used, speaker size, etc.) to assure optimum sound quality.
Before using, perform settings in the SPEAKER MODE (refer
to page 29).
NOTE:
This unit does not feature conventional switching between
NORMAL/WIDE/PHANTOM center modes.
