01 Important User Guidance Information

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer PureVision PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD Plasma Display System, please first read this information carefully.

With the Pioneer PureVision PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD, 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 PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD Plasma Display System will diminish very slowly, such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tubetype 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 tubetype 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 PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD 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.

Important User Guidance Information

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 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.

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 54).

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.

DO NOT PLACE THIS PRODUCT ON AN UNSTABLE CART, STAND, TRIPOD, BRACKET, OR TABLE. THE PRODUCT MAY FALL, CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE PRODUCT. USE ONLY WITH A CART, STAND, TRIPOD, BRACKET, OR TABLE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER, OR SOLD WITH THE PRODUCT. FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURE’S INSTRUCTIONS WHEN INSTALLING THE PRODUCT AND USE MOUNTING ACCESSORIES RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

A PRODUCT AND CART COMBINATION SHOULD BE MOVED WITH THE CARE. QUICK STOPS, EXCESSIVE FORCE, AND UNEVEN SURFACES MAY CAUSE THE PRODUCT AND CART COMBINATION TO OVERTURN.

03 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.

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.

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.

Handles at the rear of the Plasma Display

Do not remove the handles from the rear of the Plasma Display.

When moving the Plasma Display, ask another person for help and use the handles attached to the rear of the Plasma Display. Do not move the Plasma Display by holding only a single handle. Use the handles as shown.

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.

Allowed operation range of the remote control unit

Operate the remote control unit while pointing it toward the remote control sensor (t) located at the bottom right of the front panel of the Plasma Display. 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.

11/16 inches)

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.

English

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.

Using the optional PIONEER speakers

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

Operating Environment

Operating environment temperature and humidity: +0°C to +40°C (+32°F to +104°F); 20 % to 80% RH (cooling vents not blocked)

Avoid installing at the following locations:

Under direct exposure to sunlight

Under strong artificial light

In high humidity

Power cord

Noise filter

Partially eliminates noise caused by the power source.

Use only the power cord provided.

Do not use a power supply voltage other than that indicated as this may cause fire or electric shock.

For the Plasma Display System, a three-core power cord with a ground terminal is used for efficiency protection. Always connect the power cord to a three-pronged outlet and make sure that the cord is properly grounded. If you use a power source converter plug, use an outlet with a ground terminal and screw down the ground line.

Always turn off the power of the Plasma Display and Media Receiver when connecting the power cords.

Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet when the Plasma Display System is not going to be used for a long period of time.
