Installation environment 3.1 Installation environment The plasma display and special metal fixture must be installed after careful discussion with the building owner and manager of the building. Never undertake installation without careful consideration of the consequences. In addition, contact the contractor responsible for building construction and interior structure design and confirm the structure and safety of the building.
Installation environment 9) Temperature and humidity The installation site should conform to the following temperature and humidity conditions: • Operating temperature range: 0 to 40 °C (Depending somewhat on installation conditions, see descriptions of special installations and methods for installation of the standard metal fixture.
Installation conditions 3.2 Installation conditions 3.2.1 Radiation This display comes with multiple ventilation holes for efficient radiation of heat. Avoid blocking any of these holes. Ventilation holes are indicated by arrows in the following drawing. Five fans Side slits Side slits Air flows out through five of the ventilation holes and flows in through the other holes. For special installations, such as wall-hanging or embedding, additional restrictions apply concerning operating temperature.
Installation conditions 3.2.3 Installation position We recommend using the metal installation fixture made by Pioneer. When using a different fixture, use the M8 bolt hole provided on this display to mount the fixture to the display. Remove the hole rivets on the back of the plasma display, if necessary for the particular fixture. Tighten bolts with a force of 60 kg.cm or less. Overtightening may damage the blind nuts. • The following figure indicates mounting holes that can be used.
Installation conditions We recommend mounting at a minimum of 4 points, and at 6 or 8 points as shown below if possible. Avoid mounting the display with the particular 4-point scheme shown below. Mounting method — bad example Mounting method — good example A. 8-point mounting B. 6-point mounting (Do not block ventilation holes.) C. 4-point mounting (Metal fixture is mounted vertically.) (Do not block ventilation holes.) D. 4-point mounting (Metal fixture is mounted horizontally.
Installation conditions 3.2.4 Strain on surface where equipment is installed 1 This display uses glass in its display section. When using a third-party metal fixture, check that strain is 1 mm or less by the following method. 2 Tightly fit a thread using a force of φ 0.1psi or less diagonally through the mounting bolt openings on the mounting surface, as shown in the drawing. 3 Measure distance L of the intersection of the strings in the center section.
Installation procedure 3.3 Installation procedure 3.3.1 Precautions for transportation 1 Use two workers to move packages. Do not grasp the PP band during transportation. The band may snap and result in injury. 2 For transportation and storage, keep the package horizontal. Do not stack packages longitudinally or laterally.

Precautions 6.5 Precautions • When the power to the display repeats turning off, some circuits mey be faulty (because of defective parts, etc.). Turn off the power to the plasma display and turn on the switch again after several seconds. When the power is turned off again, the system may be faulty. When it normally works, the system can be used without problems. • When the same images (such as stills and telop) are on the display for hours, images are printed on the display and not disappear.
Maintenance • Remove the plug from the plug socket before maintenance. • Maintenance of the cabinet/remote controller Do not use solvent such as benzene and thinner. The cabinet and remote controller may deteriorate in quality or the paint may peel off. Use a soft cloth to wipe off dust lightly. When they are very dirty, put a soft cloth in detergent diluted with water, fully wring it and wipe with it. Finish cleaning with a dry soft cloth.
