Plasma television 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
television 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 television displays information using pixels. Pioneer
plasma television panels contain a very large number of pixels.
(Depending on the panel size: over 2.3 million cells in case of a 42
inch display; over 3.1 million cells in case of a 50 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 televisions because it is a
consequence of the technology.
If the defective pixels are visible at a normal viewing distance of
between 2.5 metres and 3.5 metres 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 plasma television releases infrared rays because of its
characteristics. Depending on how the plasma television 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.
Plasma television driving sound
The screen of the plasma television is composed of extremely fine
pixels and these pixels emit light according to received video
signals. This principle may cause you to hear a buzz or electrical
hum coming from the plasma television.
Fan motor noise
The rotation speed of the cooling fan motor increases when the
ambient temperature of the plasma television becomes high. You
may hear the sound of the fan motor at that time.
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 plasticiser 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 television
Do not remove the handles from the rear of the plasma television.
When moving the plasma television, ask another person for help
and use the handles attached to the rear of the plasma television.
Do not move the plasma television 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.
