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
(118 inches).
• 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.
• This product may be used only with model PDK-TS04
stand, use with other stands may result in instability
causing possible injury.
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 (+32°F to +104°F); 20 % to 80% RH
(cooling vents not blocked)
Avoid installing at the following locations:
• Under direct exposure to sunlight
• Under strong artificial light
• In high humidity
• Poorly ventilated
Over 50 cm (19

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.
