Installation Guidelines  
÷
÷
Placing and using the compact disc player for long periods on heat-generating  
sources such as amplifiers or near spotlights, etc. will affect product perform-  
ance. Avoid placing the player on heat-generating sources.  
Install this compact disc player as far as possible away from tuners and TV sets.  
A compact disc 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 compact disc 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.  
Be sure the player, including its audio and power supply cords, does not touch  
vibrating materials. Any cause of vibration other than the insulators may cause  
the disc to skip. Take special care when using the player while it is installed in  
a carrying case.  
Please be sure to leave  
a space to allow for  
heat radiation.  
Do not place on or against vibrating materials!  
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.  
CD Lens Cleaner  
The player’s pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use. If for some rea-  
son, the lens becomes soiled and malfunctions, contact your nearest PIONEER  
authorized service center. Lens cleaners for CD players are commercially available,  
but special care should be exercised in their use as some may cause damage to the  
lens.

BEFORE OPERATIONS: CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING  
FORCED DISC EJECTION  
Storing Discs  
If the eject button does not function or the disc cannot be removed, pushing the pin  
provided into the forced ejection hole on the front panel will enable the disc to be  
removed.  
When performing forced ejection, be sure to follow the precautions below.  
1 Be sure to turn OFF the power of the CD player, and check that the disc has  
stopped rotating. It takes about 60 seconds for the disc to stop rotating after the  
power has been turned OFF.  
÷
÷
Discs are made of the same kinds of plastic used for conventional analog au-  
dio 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.  
If forced ejection is performed while the disc is rotating;  
Condensation  
÷
As the disc will be ejected outside the CD player rotating, it may hit your finger  
and cause injuries.  
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.  
÷
As the disc will be rotating with the clamp unstable, it may be scratched.  
For the above reasons, never attempt to eject the disc forcibly while  
it is rotating.  
2 Always use the pin provided (Do not use other objects). The provided pin is  
found in a groove in the bottom surface of the player.  
When the provided forced eject pin is inserted fully into the forced eject hole on the  
front panel, the loaded disc is ejected about 5-10 mm from the loading slot, mak-  
ing it possible to remove it by hand.  
Cleaning and Handling Compact Discs  
÷
The presence of fingerprints or smudges on the surface of the disc will not  
directly affect the recorded signals, but, depending on the degree of contami-  
nation, the brightness of the light reflected from the signal surfaces may be  
reduced causing degradation of sound quality. Always keep your discs clean by  
wiping them gently with a soft cloth from the inner edge toward the outer edge.  
÷
÷
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.  
Forced ejection hole  
÷
With this player, use only those discs which display  
the mark shown right (Optical audio digital 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 CD with a special shape  
Do not play a CD having other shape than a circular disc, such as heart shaped  
disc. Otherwise malfunction may occur.

BEFORE OPERATIONS  
FEATURES  
The CDJ-800 compact disc player is designed for use by DJs providing all the func-  
tions and performance required in disco clubs while offering performance, sound  
quality and functionality superior to any analog player.  
CUE  
BACK CUE  
After storing the Cue point in memory, press the CUE button while playing the unit  
to go back to the Cue point and start over.  
JOG DIAL  
The large 206 mm diameter Jog dial enables better handling than  
an analog turntable.  
AUTO CUE  
Auto cue automatically locates the song’s start point even if it differs from the track’s  
frame, allowing the player to start instantly at a press of the PLAY/PAUSE button.  
PITCH BEND  
This function changes the music tempo depending on direction of Jog dial rotation  
and speed of movement.  
CUE POINT SAMPLER  
The sound from the memorized cue point can be reproduced by one touch, which  
can be used as the start point check and the sampler.  
SCRATCH PLAY  
In the VINYL mode when the surface of the Jog dial is pressed playback is discon-  
tinued and then continues according to the direction and speed the dial is rotated.  
You can also adjust the startup when the Jog dial is touched and released to create  
new DJ techniques.  
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP  
This function simplifies setting and releasing loops. This function lets you set a  
loop while you are playing a track. A loop can also be set at the end of the track so  
that the track does not stop. In addition, an ADJUST mode has been added to  
enable one-touch adjustments to Loop-out point and facilitate loop operation.  
FRAME SEARCH  
Moves the disc from pause position in frame increments (1/75 sec) when the Jog  
dial is rotated in pause mode.  
AUTO BEAT LOOP  
This function uses the track’s BPM to automatically set a loop out point and per-  
form loop play.  
SUPER FAST SEARCH  
You can search the disc faster than normal search or track search by holding down  
a SEARCH button or TRACK SEARCH button as you turn the Jog dial.  
RELOOP  
Allows you to replay a loop any number of times.  
Press the RELOOP button after releasing loop play to return to the loop start point.  
Clever use of on and off in combination with the rhythm make it possible to create  
new sound effects.  
ON JOG DISPLAY  
The center of the jog dial displays information regarding disc status, cue point  
position, sound memory status, Jog dial touch-detection, and VINYL mode.  
PLAYING ADDRESS  
CUE/LOOP MEMORY  
This player is equipped with an internal memory that permits the recording of one  
disc cue point or loop point per disc; the recorded points can later be recalled as  
desired.  
This bar graph provides a visual representation of track playback progress that  
enables you to see current playback position just like you can on an analog record  
by checking needle position. The length of the bar shows current position and a  
flashing bar provides advance notice of track end.  
QUICK RETURN  
In the VINYL mode, merely touching the Jog dial’s top surface will initiate a quick  
return to the cue point.  
SLOT IN  
Discs are loaded directly without opening doors or trays, making track selection  
that much faster.  
REVERSE PLAY  
When the reverse button (REV) is pressed so that the button’s indicator lamp lights,  
play is performed in the reverse direction.  
FADER START  
Quick start and back cue can be performed using the fader function on DJ mixers  
DJM-500, DJM-600, DJM-300 and DJM-3000 (all mixers are sold separately).  
TEMPO CONTROL  
100 mm high-precision slider coupled with a 0.05% increment digital  
display (within a 10% range) allows exact control of speed to make tempo ad-  
justments easy and accurate.  
MULTI READ  
CD-R, CD-RW discs can be replayed. (However, due to certain special characteris-  
tics of some discs, recorders as well as dirty or damaged discs, some discs may not  
replay properly.)  
TEMPO CONTROL RANGE  
The maximum variable range can be set to two variable ranges: 10% and 100%  
to facilitate adjustment.  
MASTER TEMPO  
Changes music tempo without changing pitch.

disc at the same time, or attempt to load a second disc when one disc has  
already been loaded.  
÷
When loading a disc, do not placing any twisting force on the disc, or try to  
force the disc into the slot. Also, do not attempt to interrupt or defeat the  
motion of the disc when the player begins to draw a disc into the slot or to  
eject a disc, since damage to the disc or player could occur.
