SPECIAL NOTE FOR USERS IN THE U.K.

The mains lead of this product is fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded) plug incorporating a 13A (Media

Receiver)/13A (Plasma Display) fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced, a BSI or ASTA approved BS

1362 fuse marked or and of the same rating as above, which is also indicated on the pin face of the

plug, must be used.

Always refit the fuse cover after replacing the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover fitted.

In the unlikely event of the socket outlet in your home not being compatible with the plug supplied, cut off

the mains plug and fit an appropriate type.

DANGER:

The fuse from the cut-off plug should be removed and the cut-off plug destroyed immediately and disposed

of in a safe manner.

Under no circumstances should the cut-off plug be inserted elsewhere into a 10A socket outlet, as a serious

electric shock may occur.

To fit an appropriate plug to the mains lead, follow the instructions below:

IMPORTANT:

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue: Neutral

Brown: Live

Green & Yellow: Earth

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this product may not correspond with the coloured markings

identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:

• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked N or coloured black.

• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the plug terminal which is marked L or coloured red.

Ensure that neither the brown nor the blue wire is connected to the earth terminal in your three-pin plug.

Before replacing the plug cover make sure that:

• If the new fitted plug contains a fuse, its value is the same as that removed from the cut-off plug.

• The cord grip is clamped over the sheath of the mains lead, and not simply over the lead wires.

IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT, CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this

Pioneer PureVision PDP-504HDE/PDP-434HDE Plasma

Display System, please first read this information

carefully.

With the Pioneer PureVision PDP-504HDE/PDP-

434HDE, 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-504HDE/PDP-434HDE 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 a

long time, please carefully read and follow the usage

guidances 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

System’s 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 recom-

mendations 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).

• 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 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 more than

3 times the length of the previous still moving image.

•After using the Plasma Display System, always

switch the display to “STANDBY” mode.

Installation guidelines

The Pioneer PureVision PDP-504HDE/PDP-434HDE

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 acces-

sories 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, 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 pages 15 and 16.

• 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 pos-

sible 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.

Typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based

matrix display, e.g., permanent residual images upon

the phosphor of the panel, and the existence of a

minute number of inactive light cells in the screen, are

not covered by local warranties.

01Important User Guidance Information

En

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 electrical

load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance

are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image

lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load.

The after-images remaining on the screen will disap-

pear when moving images are displayed. The time for

the after-images to disappear depends on the lumi-

nance 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 42).

03 Operational Precautions

10

En

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 be-

cause 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 equip-

ment may be adversely affected or wireless head-

phones 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 af-

fected. Switch on and run the product occasionally.

Installing the Plasma Display

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.

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

someone help you when moving it.

• 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.

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; less than 85% RH (cooling vents not

blocked)

Avoid installing in the following locations:

• Under direct exposure to sunlight

• Under strong artificial light

•In high humidity

•Poorly ventilated

Over 50 cm

Over

10 cm

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.

When the remote control unit does not func-

tion 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 oper-

ated 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 dis-

tances 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.

Using the remote control unit

Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the

remote control sensor. Objects between the remote

control unit and the sensor may prevent proper opera-

tion.

Cautions regarding the remote control

unit

• 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 humid-

ity.

• 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 Plasma Display is under

direct sunlight or strong lighting. In such case,

change the angle of the lighting or Plasma Display

set, or operate the remote control unit closer to the

remote control sensor.

Inserting batteries

If the remote control unit fails to operate Plasma

Display System functions, replace the batteries in the

remote control unit.

Open the battery cover.

2

Insert the two AA size batteries supplied with the

product.

•Place batteries with their terminals corresponding

to the (+) and (–) indicators in the battery com-

partment.

3

Close the battery cover.

Cautions regarding batteries

Improper use of batteries can result in chemical

leakage or explosion. Be sure to follow the instructions

below.

• Do not use alkaline batteries. When you replace the

batteries, use manganese ones.

•Place the batteries with their terminals correspond-

ing to the (+) and (–) indicators.

• Do not mix batteries of different types. Different types

of batteries have different characteristics.

• Do not mix old and new batteries. Mixing old and new

batteries can shorten the life of new batteries or

cause chemical leakage in old batteries.

• Remove batteries as soon as they have worn out.

Chemicals that leak from batteries can cause a rash.

If you find any chemical leakage, wipe thoroughly

with a cloth.

• The batteries supplied with this product may have a

shorter life expectancy due to storage conditions.
