01 Important User Guidance Information 6 En In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pi oneer PureVision PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD Plasma Display System, please first read this information carefully . W ith the P ioneer PureV ision PRO-1110HD/PRO-910HD, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display System with long-life and high reliability . T o 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 Pi oneer PRO -1110HD/PRO-910HD Plasma Display System will diminish ver y slowly , such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). T o enjoy beautiful and bright images on your P ioneer Plasma Display System for many years to come, please carefully read and follow the usage guidelines 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 Systems 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 satisfactor y 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). • Avoid viewing the On Screen Display for extended periods, from a 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. •I mages which have both ver y bright areas and ver y 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. •A ft er 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 over 3 times longer than the previous still/moving image. •A ft er using the Plasma Display System, always switch the display to “ST ANDBY” mode. Installation guidelines The P ioneer P ureV ision PRO-1110HD/PRO -910HD 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 accessories other than the PIONEER stand or installation bracket may result in instability , and could cause injury. F or custom installation, please consult the dealer where the unit was purchased. T o 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 when installing, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked. T o ensure proper heat emission: •D istance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. F or the minimum space required around the unit, see pages 17 and 18. • Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor . • Do not cover with a cloth, etc. •C lean 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 possible 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 a hazardous occurrence. Malfunction can be caused by many factors: inappropriate installation site, improper assembly/ installation/mounting, improper operation of or modifications made to this product. However , PIONEER cannot be held responsible for accidents or malfunction caused by the above. Ty pical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display such as permanent residual images upon the phosphors of the panel and the existence of a minute number of inactive light cells in the screen are not covered by local warranties.

01 Important User Guidance Information 7 En P anel sticking and after-image lag •D isplaying 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 r emaining electric load When image patterns with ver y high peak luminance are displayed more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the remaining electric load. The after- images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the after- images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed. 2. After-image (lag image) due to bur ning 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 55). About operations through i.LINK PIONEER shall not always assure normal video/audio recording or playback when a D-VHS is operated through i.LINK. PDP-ELITE-Eng (06-12) 9/9/03, 16:33 7

03 Operational Pr ecautions 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 pr otection 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 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. R adio interfer ence 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. F an motor noise When ambient temperature of the Media R eceiver 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 pr oduct. • 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.

Digital A V equipment compatible with i.LINK can be connected using a single i.LINK cable. The i.LINK interface allows this PDP system to control one of up to two i.LINK compatible devices (in connection) that can be identified. Which i.LINK devices ar e connectable? Fo r i.LINK devices, this system supports only D-VHS recorders. The i.LINK terminals on this system cannot be connected with other equipment such as DVD recorders, digital video cameras, personal computers, and PC peripheral devices because of differences in the specifications.

Useful and important notification Useful information •D - VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can play back digital TV programs recorded using this system. •D - VHS recorders connected through i.LINK can record only digital TV programs. Using i.LINK, those recorders cannot record conventional TV channels nor contents coming from external input sources. • This system can be simultaneously connected with up to two D- VHS recorders that support i.LINK. Y ou can control one of these D- VHS recorders (basic functions only). • Some D- VHS recorders connected through i.LINK may not allow this system to control through the control panel screen or to display images and output sound. •T o record digital TV programs using connected D- VHS recorders, use D- VHS tape. Y ou cannot use VHS tape nor S- VHS tape. • Some D- VHS recorders connected though i.LINK may not allow this system to play back images and sound recorded on VHS tape, S- VHS tape, or (if with analog signals) D-VHS tape. If this is the case, connect the analog output terminals on the D-VHS recorder to INPUT 1, 2, 3, or 4 terminals on this system. See pages 65 to 67. • This system supports the Digital T ransmission Con- tent P rotection (DTCP) technology . The DTCP is a copy protection technology that presents data coding and device authentification. • i.LINK may not allow copy-restricted video, audio , and other data to be copied from one i.LINK device to another . It also may not allow video, audio, and other data to be transferred with equipment that does not support the DTCP . Precautions • While one D-VHS recorder connected through i.LINK is recording or playing back, do not switch on or off the other connected D-VHS recorder (not in use) or do not connect or disconnect the i.LINK cable from that D-VHS recorder . Doing so can result in image and sound interruption. • Some D- VHS recorders that support i.LINK cannot relay data when their power is off . Check the user ’s manual for your D- VHS recorder . This system allows you to change the setting for data relay in the standby mode. See “Setting up for i.LINK standby” on page 76. PDP-ELITE-Eng (65-80) 9/9/03, 11:46 72
