Important User Guidance Information
In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer PureVision PDP-503HDE/PDP-433HDE Plasma Display System,
please first read this information carefully.
With the Pioneer PureVision PDP-503HDE/PDP-433HDE, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display System with
long-life and high reliability. To 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. On a total of nearly 3
million light cells, more than 99.999 percent of the cells remain active.
Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer PDP-503HDE/PDP-433HDE Plasma Display System will diminish
very slowly, such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). To enjoy beautiful
and bright images on your Pioneer Plasma Display System for a long time, please carefully read and follow the usage
guidances 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 System's 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 recommendations listed below, you can ensure
longer and satisfactory 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).
· Do not display Teletext for a prolonged period of time.
· Avoid viewing the On Screen Display for extended periods, from a decoder, 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.
· Images which have both very bright areas and very 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.
· After 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 more than 3 times the length of the previous still moving image.
· After using the Plasma Display System, always switch the display to "STAND BY" mode.
Installation guidelines
The Pioneer PureVision PDP-503HDE/PDP-433HDE 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. For custom installation, please
consult the dealer where the unit was purchased. To 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, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked when installing to ensure
proper heat emission:
· Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. (more than 10 cm)
· Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor.
· Do not cover with a cloth, etc.
· Clean 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.
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 hazardous occurrences.
Any malfunction may occur due to: an inappropriate installation site, improper assembly, installation, mounting, or operation
of this product, modifications made to the product. However, PIONEER cannot be held responsible for such accidents or
malfunction.
A
Typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display, e.g. permanent residual images upon the phosphor
of the panel, and the existence of a minute number of inactive light cells in the screen, are not covered by local warranties.

if improperly handled. This product has been engineered and manufactured with the highest priority on safety.
However, improper use can result in electric shock and/or fire. In order to prevent potential danger, please
observe the following instructions when installing, operating and cleaning the product. To ensure your safety

7.
Water and moisture--Do not use the product near water, such as bathtub, washbasin, kitchen sink and laundry tub,
swimming pool and in a wet basement.
8.
Stand--Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod or table. Placing the product on an unstable
base can cause the product to fall, resulting in serious personal injuries as well as damage to the product. Use only
a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table recommended by the manufacturer or sold with the product. When mounting
the product on a wall, be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions. Use only the mounting hardware recommended
by the manufacturer.
9.
When relocating the product placed on a cart, it must be moved with utmost care. Sudden
stops, excessive force and nueven floor surface can cause the product to fall from the cart.
10. Ventilation--The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designed for ventilation. Do not
cover or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can cause overheating
and/or shorten the life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or other
similar surface, since they can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-
in installation; do not place the product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack,
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions are followed.
11. Power source--This product must operate on a power source specified on the specification label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply used in your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
12. Power cord protection--The power cords must be routed properly to prevent people from stepping on them or
objects from resting on them. Check the cords at the plugs and product.
13. The plasma Display used in this product is made of glass. Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped or
applied with impact. Be careful not to be injured by broken glass pieces in case the plasma Display breaks.
14. Overloading--Do not overload AC outlets or extension cords. Overloading can cause fire or electric shock.
15. Entering of objects and liquids--Never insert an object into the product through vents or openings. High voltage
flows in the product, and inserting an object can cause electric shock and/or short internal parts. For the same
reason, do not spill water or liquid on the product.
16. Servicing--Do not attempt to service the product yourself. Removing covers can expose you to high voltage and
other dangerous conditions. Request a qualified service person to perform servicing.

service person to perform repairs.
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged.

c. When the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. When the product does not operate properly as described in the operating instructions.
Do not touch the controls other than those described in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of
controls not described in the instructions can cause damage, which often requires extensive adjustment work
by a qualified technician.
e. When the product has been dropped or damaged.
f. When the product displays an abnormal condition. Any noticeable abnormality in the product indicates that
the product needs servicing.
18. Replacement parts--In case the product needs replacement parts, make sure that the service person uses
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or those with the same characteristics and performance as the
original parts. Use of unauthorized parts can result in fire, electric shock and/or other danger.
19. Safety checks--Upon completion of service or repair work, request the service technician to perform safety checks
to ensure that the product is in proper operating condition.
20. Wall or ceiling mounting--When mounting the product on a wall or ceiling, be sure to install the product according
