9) Temperature and humidity conditions
• The installation site should meet the following conditions:
• Operating temperatures: 0 °C to 40 °C (largely depending on installation conditions)
• Operating humidity: 20 % to 80 %
• Storage temperature: –20 °C to 60 °C
• Storage humidity: 20 % to 90 %
• Operating atmospheric pressure: 760 hPa to 1100 hPa
• Storage atmospheric pressure: 670 hPa to 1500 hPa
• We recommend against installing electronic products such as this unit in locations subject to high humidity. If the unit
is to be installed in a location subject to relatively high humidity, observe the following:
• Failure to install the unit in unacceptable ways may result in non-warranty damages.
• Make sure the unit is grounded.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to enter the unit.
10) Prevent condensation
One of the chief sources of problems during the winter is 'condensation'. Rapid temperature fluctuations can deposit
water vapor inside the unit or on the screen, degrading performance. If condensation occurs, turn the unit off and leave
it off for an hour or so. It is also good practice to increase the room temperature gradually.
Beware of condensation. Consult Pioneer authorized dealers for assistance.
11) Power requirements
• This unit functions properly when powered at ±10 % of its rated voltage. Characteristics of power lines may effect
the voltage output. If any of the following occurs, contact an electrician to inspect the power.
• Significant voltage drop between the circuit panel and the plasma display
• Significant changes in voltage when switching the unit power on or off
• Please consider the following to allow a margin for power consumption per unit.
320 W = 320 VA
(NOTE)
• The in-rush current upon powering will be approximately 30 A.
• A grounded three-core power cable is used by the plasma display in order to maintain its functions.
Connect the power cord by inserting it in a grounded electrical outlet, making sure that the cord is properly grounded.
When using a power source use conversion plug, insert it in a grounded electrical outlet and securely attach the
ground wire.
• A leakage current within a value stipulated by standards in each country flows from an internal noise filter through
devices installed inside switching power sources such as television sets or air-conditioners. Because these currents
are added together when multiple units are used, be careful to avoid an electric shock and take steps to prevent
electric shock caused by ground wires etc.
When a leakage breaker will be installed in a power distribution series, choose the leakage breaker rating so that it
has a non-operating current that is at least two times the total leakage current in order to prevent frequent malfunctions.
And when many devices are connected, increase the number of leakage breakers and form branches in the wiring
system.
12) Effective remote control distance
This display emits weak infrared radiation. If other products controlled with infrared remote controls are placed nearby,
remote control function may be affected. In such cases, move them further away from the display or contact Pioneer
authorized dealer for assistance.
Depending on installation conditions, the range of the unit's own remote control may be reduced by infrared radiation
emitted by the screen.
The screen's infrared intensity will vary, depending on the image displayed.
