Important user information01

Chapter 1

Important user information

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer PDP-LX6090/PDP-LX5090 flat screen TV, please first read this information carefully.

With the Pioneer PDP-LX6090/PDP-LX5090, you can be assured of a high quality flat screen TV with long-life and high reliability. To achieve images of exceptional quality, this Pioneer flat screen TV incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction, as well as very precise and highly advanced technology.

The Pioneer PDP-LX6090/PDP-LX5090 flat screen TV incorporates the latest in colour filter technology: Direct Colour Filter. This improves the colour /picture reproduction of these models as compared to previous models. It also eliminates the need for a physical glass panel to be placed in front of the plasma display, which furthers Pioneer’s continued goal of reducing environmental waste in consumer electronics, now during the manufacturing process and in the future during the recycling process.

Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer PDP-LX6090/PDP-LX5090 flat screen TV will diminish very slowly, such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). To enjoy beautiful and bright images on your Pioneer flat screen TV for a long time, please carefully read and follow the usage guidelines below:

Usage guidelines

All phosphor-based screens (including conventional tube-type televisions) can be affected by displaying static images for a prolonged period. Flat screen TVs are no exception to this rule. After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be a voided by taking some basic precautions. By following the recommendations listed below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from your flat screen TV:

• Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying the same image or virtually still moving pictures (e.g. closed-captioned images or video game images which have static portions).

• Do not display Teletext for a prolonged period of time.

• Avoid viewing the on-screen display for extended periods, from a decoder, DVD player, VCR and all other components.

• Do not leave the same picture freeze-framed or paused continuously over a long period of time, when using the still picture mode from a TV, VCR, DVD player or any other component.

• Images which have both very bright areas and very dark areas side by side should not be displayed for a prolonged period of time.

• When playing a video game, the “GAME” mode setting within “AV Selection” is strongly recommended. However, please do not use this mode for long periods of time.

• After playing a game or displaying any still image, it is best to view a normal moving picture in the “WIDE” or “FULL” screen setting for more than three times the length of the previous still/ moving image.

• After using the flat screen TV, always switch the display to “STANDBY” mode.

Installation guidelines

The Pioneer PDP-LX6090/PDP-LX5090 flat screen TV incorporates a very thin design. To ensure safety, please take the proper measures to mount or install the flat screen TV, in order to prevent the unit from tipping over in the event of vibration or accidental movement.

This product should be installed by using only parts and accessories designed by Pioneer. Use of accessories other than the Pioneer stand or installation bracket may result in instability, and could cause injury. For custom installation, please consult the dealer where the unit was purchased. To ensure correct installation, experienced and qualified experts must install the unit.

Pioneer will not be responsible for accident or damage caused by the use of parts and accessories manufactured by other companies, inadequate installation or stabilization, erroneous operation, remodeling or natural disasters.

To avoid malfunction and overheating, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked when installing to ensure proper heat emission:

• Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. For the minimum space required around the unit, see page 15.

• Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor.

• Do not cover with a cloth, etc.

• Clean the vents on the sides and rear of the unit to remove dust build-up, by using a vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting.

• Do not place the product on a carpet or blanket.

• Do not leave the product tilted over.

• Do not turn the product upside down.

Using the unit without proper ventilation may cause the internal temperature to rise, and could result in possible malfunction. When the surrounding or internal temperature exceeds a certain degree, the display will automatically power off in order to cool the internal electronics and prevent hazardous occurrences.

Any malfunction may occur due to: an inappropriate installation site, improper assembly, installation, mounting, or operation of this product, modifications made to the product. However, Pioneer cannot be held responsible for such accidents or malfunction.

Note

The following are typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display and as such, are not covered by the manufacturer’s limited warranties:

• Permanent residual images upon the phosphors of the panel.

• The existence of a minute number of inactive light cells.

• Panel generated sounds, examples: Fan motor noise, and electrical circuit humming/glass panel buzzing

Important user information 01

Caution

• Pioneer bears no responsibility for any damage arising from incorrect use of the product by you or other people, malfunctions when in use, other product related problems, and use of the product except in cases where the company must be liable.

Flat screen TV protection function

When still images (such as photos and computer images) stay on the screen for an extended period of time, the screen will be slightly dimmed. This is because the protection function of the flat screen TV automatically adjusts the brightness to protect the screen when detecting still images; so this does not designate malfunction. The screen is dimmed when a still image is detected for about three minutes.

Information of pixel defect

Plasma TVs displays information using pixels. Pioneer flat screen TV panels contain a very large number of pixels. (Depending on the panel size; over 3.1 million pixels for a 50 inch/60 inch display). All Pioneer display panels are manufactured using a very high level of ultra-precision technology and undergo individual quality control.

In rare cases, some pixels can be permanently switched off, or on, resulting in either a black or coloured pixel permanently fixed on the screen.

This effect is common to all plasma TVs because it is a consequence of the technology.

If the defective pixels are visible at a normal viewing distance of between 2.5 meters and 3.5 meters whilst viewing a normal broadcast (i.e. not a test card, still image or single colour display) please contact the supplying dealer.

If, however, they can only be seen close up or during single colour displays then this is considered normal for this technology.

Infrared rays

The flat screen TV releases infrared rays because of its characteristics. Depending on how the flat screen TV is used, the remote controls of nearby equipment may be adversely affected or wireless headphones using infrared rays are interfered by noise. If this is the case, place that equipment at a location where its remote control sensor is not affected.

Radio interference

While this product meets the required specifications, it emits a small amount of noise. If you place such equipment as an AM radio, personal computer, and VCR close to this product, that equipment may be interfered. If this happens, place that equipment far enough from this product.

Flat screen TV driving sound

The screen of the flat screen TV is composed of extremely fine pixels and these pixels emit light according to received video signals. This principle may make you hear buzz sound or electrical circuit humming from the flat screen TV.

Do not attach such items as labels and tape to the product

This may result in the discolouration or scratch of the cabinet.

When not using the product for a long period of time

If you do not use the product for a long period of time, the functions of the product may be adversely affected. Switch on and run the product occasionally.

Condensation

Condensation may take place on the surface or inside of the product when the product is rapidly moved from a cold place to a warm place or just after a heater is switched on in winter morning, for example. When condensation takes place, do not switch on the product and wait until condensation disappears. Using the product with condensation may result in malfunction.

Cleaning the surface of the screen

When cleaning the screen surface, gently wipe it with the supplied dry cleaning cloth.

Caution

Rubbing hard on the screen can scratch the special film coating the surface. If cleaning gently with the dry cloth is not enough to remove grime, unplug the power cord from the outlet and follow the procedure below.

1. Soak a piece of soft, untreated cloth in distilled water.

A “treated” cloth contains polish or other chemicals, such as in a commercially available eyeglass cleaning towelette.

2. Wring out the cloth so that it is slightly damp, not wet.

Make sure to wring out the cloth completely. Cleaning the surface with a wet cloth can allow water to seep into the unit, causing damage.

3. Gently wipe the surface of the screen with the damp cloth.

4. Wipe the surface again using the dry cloth included with your panel to remove any remaining dampness and to prevent streaks.

Cleaning the glossy surface of the front cabinet

When cleaning the glossy surface of the front cabinet, gently wipe it with a dry soft cloth; the supplied cleaning cloth or other similar cloths (e.g., cotton and flannel). If you use a dusty or hard cloth, the surface of the product will be scratched.

Cleaning the cabinet

When cleaning the cabinet of this product, gently wipe it with a clean soft cloth (e.g., cotton and flannel). If you use a dusty or hard cloth or if you rub the cabinet hard, the surface of the cabinet will be scratched.

The cabinet of this product is mostly composed of plastic. Do not use chemicals such as benzene or thinner to clean the cabinet. Using these chemicals may result in quality deterioration or coating removal.

Do not expose the product to volatile gas or fluid such as pesticide. Do not make the product contact with rubber or vinyl products for a long period of time. The effect of plasticizer in the plastic may result in quality deterioration or coating removal.

Important user information01

Handles at the rear of the flat screen TV

Do not remove the handles from the rear of the flat screen TV. When moving the flat screen TV, ask another person for help and

use the handles attached to the rear of the flat screen TV. Do not move the flat screen TV by holding only a single handle.

Do not use the handles to hang the product when installing or carrying the product, for example. Do not use the handles for the purpose of preventing the product from tilting over.

Fan motor noise

The rotation speed of the cooling fan motor increases when the ambient temperature of the flat screen TV becomes high. You may hear the sound of the fan motor at that time.

To use this product for a long period of time

The Energy Save function can maintain efficiency of the screen for a long period of time. Setting the Energy Save function to “Mode1” is recommended in order to maintain the efficiency of the screen for a long period of time.

Caution

Panel sticking and after-image lag

Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two cases.

After-image lagging due to remaining electrical load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than one minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.

After-image (lag image) due to burning

Avoid displaying the same image on the flat screen TV continuously over a long period of time.

If the same image is displayed continuously for a long period, or for shorter periods of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving images are later displayed, but they will not disappear completely.

Preventing damage from screen burning

• We recommend that you enjoy watching images displayed in full screen, except when doing so may result in copyright infringement (see page 53).

• Set the Side Mask detection function to “On”, the High Definition 16:9 aspect ratio images containing side masks will be detected and the side masks will be added automatically or the image displayed in full screen, leading to more effective countermeasures taken for the screen burning (see Detecting side masks on page 54).

Note

• To prevent damage from screen burning this flat screen TV will automatically - after a display time of 5 to 10 minutes - turn off those still images generated by the system itself: the Home Gallery function and Graphical User Interface elements such as HOME MENU and the Electronic Programme Guide.

• To prevent screen burning, the display position is automatically changed imperceptibly when watching flat screen TV (see Orbiter on page 55).

Operating range of the remote control unit

Operate the remote control unit while pointing it toward the remote control sensor located at the bottom right of the front panel of the flat screen TV. The distance from the remote control sensor must be within 7 m and the angle relative to the sensor must be within 30 degrees in the right, left, upward, or downward direction.

Note

• For remote control sensor locations, see Part names on page 12.

Caution

• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, do not expose the remote control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area with high humidity.

• Do not install or place the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may cause deformation of the unit.

• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote control sensor of the flat screen TV is under direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such case, change the angle of the lighting or flat screen TV, or operate the remote control unit closer to the remote control sensor.

• When any obstacle exists between the r emote control unit and the remote control sensor, the remote control unit may not function.

• As the batteries become empty, the remote control unit can function within a shorter distance from the remote control sensor. Replace the batteries with new ones early enough.

• The flat screen TV emits very weak infrared rays from its screen. If you place such equipment operated through infrared remote control as a VCR nearby, that equipment may not receive commands from its remote control unit properly or entirely. If this is the case, place that equipment at a location far enough from the flat screen TV.

• Depending on the installation environment, infrared rays from the flat screen TV may not allow this system to properly receive commands from the remote control unit or may shorten allowable distances between the remote control unit and the remote control sensor. The strength of infrared rays emitted from the screen differs, depending on images displayed on the screen.
