from the component video outputs

This player can output progressive scan video

from the component video output. Compared

to interlace video, progressive scan video

effectively doubles the scanning rate of the

picture, resulting in a very stable, flicker-free

image.

definition television sets are fully compatible

with this product and may cause artifacts to be

displayed in the picture. In case of 525/625

progressive scan picture problems, it is

recommended that the user switch the

connection to the ‘standard definition’ output

(Interlace). If there are questions regarding our

TV set compatibility with this model, please

Getting started

• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?

Note

First check that you loaded the disc the

right way up (label side up), and that it’s

clean and undamaged. See Taking care of

your player and discs on page 38 for

information on cleaning discs.

• You can adjust the HIGH tone in a range of

five steps and the LOW tone in a range of

five steps.

• If the microphone level is too high, the

sound may distort. In this case, lower the

volume.

If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s

probably an incompatible format or disc

type, such as DVD-Audio or DVD-ROM. See

Disc / content format playback compatibility

on page 7 for more on disc compatibility.

When “howling” occurs

If sound from the speakers is picked up by a

mic and output again through the speakers,

the result is a screeching sound known as

“howling”.

• I have a widescreen TV so why are there

black bars at the top and bottom of the

screen when I play some discs?

To eliminate howling:

Some movie formats are such that even

when played on a widescreen TV, black

bars are necessary at the top and bottom of

the screen. This is not a malfunction.

• Point the mic away from the speakers.

• Move the mic away from the speakers.

• Turn VOLUME counterclockwise to lower

• Turn ECHO counterclockwise to lower the

echo effect.

Some discs override the display

Note

preferences of the player, so even if you

have 4:3 (Pan & Scan) selected, those

discs will still be shown in letter box format.

This is not a malfunction.

• Reduce the volume when plugging in the

microphone to prevent feedback.

FAQ

• After I load a DVD disc, it ejects

automatically after a few seconds!

Most likely, the disc is the wrong region for

your player. The region number should be

printed on the disc; check it against the

region number of the player (which you can

find on the rear panel). See also DVD-Video

regions on page 40.

If the region number is OK, it may be that

the disc is damaged or dirty. Clean the disc

and look for signs of damage. See also

arising in connection with the use of shaped

discs.

Taking care of your player and

discs

General

Cleaning discs

Hold discs by the edge or by the center hole

and edge.

Fingerprints and dust on discs can affect

playback performance. Clean using a soft, dry

cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to

the outside edge as shown below.

When you're not using a disc, return it to its

case and store upright. Avoid leaving discs in

excessively cold, humid, or hot environments

(including under direct sunlight).

Don't glue paper or put stickers on to discs. Do

not use a pencil, ball-point pen or other sharp-

tipped writing instrument to write on the disc.

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,

including products designed for cleaning vinyl

records.

Don’t use self-adhesive disc labels on discs as

these can cause the disc to warp slightly

during playback causing distortion in the

picture and/or sound.

Cleaning the unit’s exterior

Unplug the unit before cleaning.

Damaged and shaped discs

Do not use cracked, chipped, warped, or

otherwise damaged discs as they may damage

the player.

Use a dry cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. If the

surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth

dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or

six times with water and wrung out well, then

wipe again with a dry cloth.

Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. Never

use thinners, benzine or insecticide sprays or

other chemicals on or near this unit.

If you use a chemical-impregnated cleaning

cloth, read the instructions carefully before

use. These cloths may leave smear marks on

half-mirror finish surfaces; if this happens,

finish with a dry cloth.

This player is designed to be used only with

conventional, fully circular discs. Do not use

zoom and stretch options; see the instructions

that came with your TV for details.

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. We

do not recommend using commercially

available lens cleaners for CD players.

Please note that some movie aspect ratios are

wider than 16:9, so even though you have a

widescreen TV, these discs will still play in a

‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and

bottom of the screen.

Condensation

Standard TV users

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 its

performance. Leave it to adjust to the warmer

temperature for about an hour before

switching on.

If you have a standard TV, the TV Screen

setting (page 34) of this player should be set to

4:3 (Letter Box) or 4:3 (Pan&Scan),

depending on which you prefer.

Set to 4:3 (Letter Box), widescreen discs are

shown with black bars top and bottom.

Moving the player

If you need to move the player, first press

ꢂ STANDBY/ON on the front panel to turn the

player off. Wait for -OFF- to disappear from the

display, then unplug the power cable. Never lift

or move the unit during playback—discs rotate

at a high speed and may be damaged.

Set to 4:3 (Pan&Scan), widescreen discs are

shown with the left and right sides cropped.

Although the picture looks larger, you don’t

actually see the whole picture.

Screen sizes and disc formats

DVD-Video discs come in several different

screen aspect ratios, ranging from TV

programs, which are generally 4:3, to

CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an

aspect ratio of up to about 7:3.

Please note that many widescreen discs

override the player’s settings so that the disc is

shown in letter box format regardless of the

setting.

Televisions, too, come in different aspect

ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and widescreen 16:9.

Widescreen TV users

Note

If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Screen

setting (page 34) of this player should be set to

16:9 (Wide).

• Using the 16:9 (Wide) setting with a

standard 4:3 TV, or either of the 4:3 settings

with a widescreen TV, will result in a

When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format,

you can use the TV controls to select how the
