Installation Site Requirements
3.1 Installation Site Requirements
If the site requires modifications or special preparations for installation of the plasma display or its mounting hardware,
obtain permission in advance from the building owner or building authorities. To ensure installations safety, it is also
important to determine the strength of the installation site with the help of the original building contractor.
Safety Precautions
1) Structure of the installation site
Make sure you thoroughly understand the structure of the installation site before determining the most suitable installation
method. Buildings vary in structure and materials, and the appropriate mounting hardware with differ accordingly.
When drilling into walls, always remain aware of the internal electric wiring and pipes.
2) Weight capacity of the installation site
Select a location with a weight capacity sufficient to support the total weight of the display and mounting hardware.
3) Flat, level surfaces
Select a flat, level surface for installation, such that mounting software will be parallel to the surface to which it is
affixed.
Install the unit so that the load is evenly distributed along the ceiling or floor, as well as on mounting hardware such as
hang bolts.
4) Sufficient work space
Select a location with sufficient space for installation work. The installation work should be conducted by two or more
persons.
5) Nearby equipment
If air conditioning ducts or lamps, etc. are located near the installation site, the attendant dust, extreme temperatures,
humidity, and condensation may become sources of trouble. Please take sufficient steps to avoid this.
6) Safe locations
Do not install the unit where it may be easily touched or leaned against. Avoid locations subject to high vibration or
severe impacts.
7) Lighting conditions
• Consider existing lighting and sunlight angles when creating the installation layout. Extremely bright lighting can
reduce the visibility and quality of the display image.
• In extremely bright surroundings, adjusting screen intensity may not result in perceptibly brighter images. Keep in
mind that extreme intensity settings can reduce system service life.
8) Installation partially outdoors
The unit is designed for indoor use, and is not suited for open-air use. Installation in locations that are even partially
exposed to the elements may lead to malfunctions or breakdown caused by any of the following:
• Water and dust
• Changes in temperature and humidity
• Salt-bearing wind
Direct sunlight upon the display degrades image quality. In installing the display, avoid sites exposed to direct sunlight.
16
Installation Site Requirements
9) Temperature and humidity conditions
• The installation site should meet the following conditions:
•Operating temperatures: 0 to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)
•Operating humidity: 20 to 80 %
•Storage temperature: –20 to 60 °C
•Storage humidity: 20 to 90 %
•Operating atmospheric pressure: 0.8 to 1.1 atm
•Storage atmospheric pressure: 0.6 to 1.5 atm
• We recommend against installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the unit
is to be installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:
•Failure to install the unit in unacceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.
•Make sure the unit is grounded.
•Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.
10) Prevent condensation
One of the chief sources of problems during the winter is “condensation”. Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit
water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave
it off for an hour or so. It is also good practice to increase the room temperature gradually.
Beware of condensation. Consult Pioneer authorized dealers for assistance.
11) Power requirements
• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10 % of its rated voltage. Characteristics of power lines may effect
the voltage output. If any of the following occurs, contact an electrician to inspect the power.
•Significant voltage drop between the circuit panel and the plasma display
•Significant changes in voltage when switching the unit power on or off
• When calculating power consumption, allow for 500 W ≠ 500 VA of consumption per unit.
(NOTE)
• The in-rush current upon powering will be approximately 30 A.
12) Effective remote control distance
This display emits weak infrared radiation. If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby,
remote control function may be affected. In such cases, move them further away from the display or contact Pioneer
authorized dealer for assistance.
Depending on installation conditions, the range of the unit's own remote control may be reduced by infrared radiation
emitted by the screen.
The screen's infrared intensity will vary, depending on the image displayed.

Installation Conditions
3.2.2 Calculating heat quantity
As a curtesy to our customers, we have included the power formula to calculate the air conditioning needs.
For power consumption, allow for 500 W ≠ 500 VA per unit.
Since most of the power consumed is transformed into heat, power consumption may be regarded as roughly equal to
generated heat.
1 Conversion to calories
[W] × 0.86 = [kcal/h]
Heat generated per display: 500 W × 0.86 = 430 kcal/h
2 Conversion to British Thermal Units
[W] × 3.41 = [BTU/h]
Heat generated per unit: 500 W × 3.41 = 1705 BTU/h
3.2.3 Product mounting holes
We recommend using mounting hardware available from Pioneer. If you use other mounting hardware items, mount
them to the unit using the M8-bolt holes provided in the unit. Remove the hole rivets, depending on the particular
mounting hardware used. Tighten the bolts with a torque between 50 and 80 kg/cm. Applying a torque beyond these
limits may lead to internal component failure.
• Locations of useable mount holes are shown below. (Caps or plugs can be removed by turning them with a coin or
other device.)

3.2.4 Mounting surface warping
The display section incorporates glass. Before mounting the product, using hardware other than that provided by
Pioneer, perform the following to confirm that the display is free from warps exceeding 1 mm*.
* Regarding the 1mm limit
The frame of the display may have a warp of up to 3mm. If the total warp (the warp of the frame plus the warp of the
mount surface) exceeds 4mm then the glass in the display may be put under excessive stress. In order to ensure that
the total warp is less than 4mm, you should make sure that the warp of the mount surface is less than 1mm.
1 Referring to the illustration below, diagonally extend string of maximum
φ
0.1-mm diameter through the bolt
mount openings. Strings thus arranged should be completely free of slack.
2 Measure the clearance (L) between the strings at their point of intersection.
Distortion is expressed by: [Distortion] = L × 2.
3 If L is found to be 0, pass the strings through the other bolt mount openings and repeat the measurements. Any
value of L greater than 0 indicates the presence of distortion. If the measured value in both cases is 0, the
distortion is negligible.

Installation Procedures
2) Unpacking procedures
1 Remove the packing bands.
2 Slowly lift and remove the upper carton.
3 Lift and remove the carton cover.
4 Remove the L, C and R upper cartons.
5 Remove the front and rear cartons.
6 Remove the operating instructions and accessories, which are secured to the lower carton by adhesive tape.
7 Remove the unit. (This should be performed by two persons.)
3) Transportation of the unpacked unit.
If it needs to be moved, the unit should be lifted by two persons.
• Never move the unit by dragging it along the floor.
• Move the unit slowly, taking care to prevent scraping or striking the delicate front protective panel.
• In order to prevent adhesion of dust, remove the protective film only after all work and preparations for the
installation site, including clean-up following unpacking, are complete.
3.3.3 Mounting on the attachment stands (See 4.3 " Installation of the Attachment Stand" for in-
structions on permanent installation.)
Insert the stand bolt into holes A and A' so that the head of the bolt can slide into the slot in the stand.
Unpacking procedure stops at Step 2), 6, above. Bolts A and A' can be made to slide into the slot in the stand before
the unit is unpacked. This method should, insofar as possible, be a temporary setup pending proper installation.
When installing the attachment stand, consult 4.3 “Installation of the Attachment Stand”. If making the attachment
to position B, use the B hole rivet, or remove the A stand bolt and attach it to position B.
Placing the screen on the stands is only a temporary step before proper installation. We cannot guarantee against
damage to the screen caused by it toppling over under an external force etc. while it is placed on the stands.
B ABA'
3.3.4 Re-packing (re-packing and re-shipping are not covered by the warranty.)
If the unit needs to be re-packaged, observe the following guidelines.
• Pack by performing in reverse order the steps described in 3.3.2 “Unpacking”. The miller mat must be positioned
so that the shiny film surface faces outward and its soft surface faces inward (toward the unit).
• Restore all accessories to their original locations. Secure with adhesive tape to prevent damage during
transportation.
• Do not re-package and ship if the packing material is damaged.

Installation Procedures
3.3.5 Wiring
1) Connecting the power cable
• Refer to the section on Power Cord Connection on p. 16 of the operating instructions.
• For power source specifications, refer to 3.1 “Installation Site Requirements”, Section 11) Power requirements,
above.
2) Connecting signal cables
(1) Please refer to p10~17 of the instruction manual for instructions on how to connect a PC or a video device.
(2) Important notes
• Use coaxial cables. As a rough guide, for video signals use 3C-2V cables for lengths up to 15 meters, and 5C2V cables for lengths up to 30 meters. Use thicker cables for computer signals, since these signals are more
likely to degrade: 5C-2V cables, for example, for 15-meter lengths. Generally, thicker cables will produce
more reliable connections. You can also improve signal quality by minimizing cable length.
• Video cables plugged into video inputs and outputs close to dimmers, neon signs, air-conditioning units, or
cables for wired broadcasts may occasionally deliver slightly corrupted images.
3) Processing wires
• In the case of permanent or long-term installation, please be careful to select cables of the correct length,
considering the whole wiring route when doing this (this is not so important in the case of short-term installation
such as with special events).
• Arrange and secure cables so that they will not be subject to direct load or physical force. For temporary
installation, securing cables with string should be perfectly adequate. For permanent installations, secure by
more reliable means.
