01 Important User Guidance Information

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer PureVision PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD Plasma Display System, please first read this information carefully.

With the Pioneer PureVision PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display System with long-life and high reliability. To achieve images of exceptional quality, this Pioneer Plasma Display System incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction, as well as very precise and highly advanced technology.

Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD Plasma Display System 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 Plasma Display System for many years to come, 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. Plasma Display Systems are no exception to this rule. After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be avoided by taking some basic precautions. By following the recommendations listed below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from your plasma:

• 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).

• Avoid viewing the On Screen Display for extended periods, from a 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 game, the “GAME” mode setting within “AV Selection” is strongly recommended. However, please limit its use to less than 2 hours at a time.

•After playing a game, or displaying a PC image or any still image, it is best to view a normal moving picture in the “WIDE” or “FULL” screen setting for over 3 times longer than the previous still/moving image.

•After using the Plasma Display System, always switch the display to “STANDBY” mode.

Installation guidelines

The Pioneer PureVision PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD Plasma Display System incorporates a very thin design. To ensure safety, please take the proper measures to mount or install the Plasma Display, 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 held responsible for accident or damage caused by the use of parts and accessories manufactured by other companies.

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

•Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. For the minimum space required around the unit, see pages 17 and 18.

• 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 except the case of vertical installation of the Media Receiver.

• Do not reverse the product.

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 a hazardous occurrence.

Malfunction can be caused by many factors: inappropriate installation site, improper assembly/ installation/mounting, improper operation of or modifications made to this product. However, PIONEER cannot be held responsible for accidents or malfunction caused by the above.

Typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display such as permanent residual images upon the phosphors of the panel and the existence of a minute number of inactive light cells in the screen are not covered by local warranties.

PDP-ELITE-Eng (06-12) 9/9/03, 11:436

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.

1. After-image lagging due to remaining electric

load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The afterimages remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the afterimages to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.

2. After-image (lag image) due to burning

Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is displayed continuously for several hours, 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.

• The Energy save function can be set to help prevent damage from screen burning (see page 55).

01Important User Guidance Information

About operations through i.LINK

PIONEER shall not always assure normal video/audio recording or playback when a D-VHS is operated through i.LINK.

PDP-ELITE-Eng (06-12) 9/9/03, 11:439

Operational Precautions

PIONEER bears no responsibility for any damages 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.

Plasma Display 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 Plasma Display 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.

Infrared rays

The Plasma Display releases infrared rays because of its characteristics. Depending on how the Plasma Display is in use, 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.

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 screen

• When cleaning the screen of this product, 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 hard cloth or rub the screen hard, the surface of the screen will be scratched.

• If you clean the surface of the screen with a wet cloth, water droplets on the surface may enter into the product, resulting in malfunction.

Cleaning the cabinet

• The cabinet of this product is mostly composed of plastic. Do not use chemicals such as benzine 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.

• If you clean the surface of the cabinet with a wet cloth, water droplets on the surface may enter into the product, resulting in malfunction.

Fan motor noise

When ambient temperature of the Media Receiver becomes high, the rotation speed of the cooling fan motor increases. This may make you feel that the fan motor is noisy at such an occasion.

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

• This may result in the discoloration 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.

Locating

• Avoid direct sunlight. Maintain adequate ventilation.

• The length of the system cable used to connect the

Plasma Display and the Media Receiver is about 3 m (118 inches).

• Because the Plasma Display is heavy, be sure to have

someone help you when moving it.

When the remote control unit does not function properly

• When any obstacle exists between the remote 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 Plasma Display 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 Plasma Display.

• Depending on the installation environment, infrared rays from the Plasma Display 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.

• If you place anything on the top of the Media Receiver it will not receive enough ventilation and will not operate properly.

•Allow enough space around the upper and back parts when installing to ensure ventilation around the backside.

Using the optional PIONEER stand

•For details on installation, refer to the instruction manual provided with the stand.

• This product may be used only with model PDK-TS04 stand, use with other stands may result in instability causing possible injury.

Setting MTS/SAP mode

The Plasma Display System has a feature that allows reception of sound other than the main audio for the program. This feature is called Multi-channel Television Sound (MTS). The Plasma Display System with MTS can receive mono sound, stereo sound and Secondary Audio Programs (SAP). The SAP feature allows a TV station to broadcast other information, which could be audio in another language or something completely different like weather information.

You can enjoy Hi-Fi stereo sound or SAP broadcasts where available.

•Stereo broadcasts

View programs like live sporting events, shows and concerts in dynamic stereo sound.

• SAP broadcasts

Receive TV broadcasts in either MAIN or SAP sound. MAIN sound: The normal program soundtrack (either

in mono or stereo). SAP sound: Listen to second language, supplemen-

tary commentary and other information. (SAP is mono sound.)

If stereo sound is difficult to hear:

• Obtain a clearer sound by manually switching to the MONO mode.

• Once the MONO mode is selected, the Plasma Display System sound remains mono even if the system receives a stereo broadcast. You must reselect the STEREO mode if you want to hear stereo sound again.

• Selecting MTS while the input source is INPUT 1 to 4 or PC does not change the type of sound. In this case, sound is determined by the video source.

Each time you press MTS, MTS toggles as shown below.

Priority rules for overlapped presettings

When preset TV programs are overlapped, the following three rules are used to determine a higher priority. If more than one of the three rules are met, the rules are applied in the order; 1, 2, then 3.

Rule 1: Presetting for recording is given a higher

priority over presetting for auto channel select.

Presetting for recording

Presetting for auto channel select

The shaded area is not executed.

Rule 2: If two presettings are overlapped, presetting

with earlier start time is given a higher priority. If two presettings are sequential, the last portion of the first program is not recorded for 15 seconds because recording of the second program is started at the exact start time.

Program A

Program B

• If the schedule of the selected program is overlapped with another presetting, “Overlap” appears in the Info field. Presettigs with “Overlap” may not be partially or entirely executed.

• When entering into the schedule table, pressing ENTER causes the cursor to jump to an empty field.

•Presetting becomes ineffective if the start time and the end time are identical or if presetting operations are performed within two minutes before the start of the program.

•Presettings made using the EPG are automatically shown in the schedule table.

•For presetting made using the EPG, “E” appears beside the channel number in the schedule table. If you alter the presetting content, “E” disappears.

•For priorities about overlapped presettings, see “Priority rules for overlapped presettings” on page 63.

• If you switch off the system using the POWER button, the program presetting will become ineffective. Be careful not to switch off the power.

The shaded area is not executed.

Rule 3: If presettings at the same start time are

overlapped, presetting with a smaller list number is given a higher priority.

Watching a D-VHS image

What is i.LINK?

i.LINK is a digital serial interface for handling digital video, digital audio, and other data in two directions. i.LINK is Sony’s term for the IEEE 1394 data transport bus. Digital AV equipment compatible with i.LINK can be connected using a single i.LINK cable. The i.LINK interface allows this PDP system to control one of up to two i.LINK compatible devices (in connection) that can be identified.

Which i.LINK devices are connectable?

For i.LINK devices, this system supports only D-VHS recorders. The i.LINK terminals on this system cannot be connected with other equipment such as DVD recorders, digital video cameras, personal computers, and PC peripheral devices because of differences in the specifications.

Useful and important notification

Useful information

•D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can play back digital TV programs recorded using this system.

•D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can record only digital TV programs. Using i.LINK, those recorders cannot record conventional TV channels nor contents coming from external input sources.

• This system can be simultaneously connected with up to two D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK. You can control one of these D-VHS recorders (basic functions only).

• Some D-VHS recorders connected through i.LINK may not allow this system to control through the control panel screen or to display images and output sound.

•To record digital TV programs using connected D-VHS recorders, use D-VHS tape. You cannot use VHS tape nor S-VHS tape.

• Some D-VHS recorders connected though i.LINK may not allow this system to play back images and sound recorded on VHS tape, S-VHS tape, or (if with analog signals) D-VHS tape. If this is the case, connect the analog output terminals on the D-VHS recorder to INPUT 1, 2, 3, or 4 terminals on this system. See pages 65 to 67.

• This system supports the Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) technology. The DTCP is a copy protection technology that presents data coding and device authentification.

• i.LINK may not allow copy-restricted video, audio, and other data to be copied from one i.LINK device to another. It also may not allow video, audio, and other data to be transferred with equipment that does not support the DTCP.

Precautions

• While one D-VHS recorder connected through i.LINK is recording or playing back, do not switch on or off the other connected D-VHS recorder (not in use) or do not connect or disconnect the i.LINK cable from that D-VHS recorder. Doing so can result in image and sound interruption.

• Some D-VHS recorders that support i.LINK cannot relay data when their power is off. Check the user’s manual for your D-VHS recorder. This system allows you to change the setting for data relay in the standby mode. See “Setting up for i.LINK standby” on page

76.

Canadian rating systems

• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.

• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.

• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can chose either the Canadian English ratings or the Canadian French ratings.
