4.4.3 Installing procedures

Installation instructions are noted below. When installing
the unit, if a screw or other object should drop inside the
plasma display, immediately consult your nearest Pioneer
Service Center. Continuing operation may result in
malfunction. This device has been designed for installation
on the Pioneer Plasma Display PDP-425CMX/PDP-
42MXE10. Installation procedures are as follows:
Confirm the following before installing this video card:
• Disconnect the plasma display from computer or other
components.
• Disconnect the plasma display's power cord from its
outlet.
Installation Notes:
• When opening the protective cover, take care not to
drop screws or other objects in the opening. Objects
dropped inside the display may cause damage or
malfunction.
• When installing the video card, if the plasma display is
laid with its screen side facing down, the work surface
should be flat and level, and either the packing material,
a blanket, or other soft material should be spread on
the work surface first to protect the screen. Take care
to prevent scratches or other damage to the unit from
tools or other objects. Never rest the display on a surface
in such a way that weight or pressure is placed only on
the screen surface.
• This video card has been designed for exclusive use with
the Pioneer Plasma Display PDP-425CMX/PDP-
42MXE10. Do not attempt unauthorized modifications
or alterations since malfunction or damage may result.
• Take care not to modify or damage the card's internal
devices in any way.
• Before installation, take precautions to eliminate static
electricity on your body. Do not touch the card's circuitry
or devices.
• This device has not been designed to allow reinstallation
or removal; after the card has once been installed on
the plasma display, do not attempt to remove it since
damage may result.
• When installing the PDA-5003, it may be necessary to
adjust the setting of the impedance selector switch.
Confirm this item before installing.
• Do not install the PDA-5002 on the PDP-425CMX/PDP-
42MXE10 display units.
• Prior to insertion, wipe the PCI bus in the direction of
the electrodes using a cloth containing ethanol to
remove dirt and dust. Wiping with a dry cloth may cause
damage due to static electricity.
