Important User Guidance Information
In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer
PureVision PDP-506HDG/PDP-436HDG Plasma Display
System, please first read this information carefully.
With the Pioneer PureVision PDP-506HDG/PDP-436HDG, 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.
The Pioneer PureVision PDP-506HDG/PDP-436HDG
incorporates the latest in color filter technology – Direct Color
Filter. This improves the color / picture reproduction of these
models as compared to previous models. It also eliminates the
need for a physical glass panel to be placed in front of the
plasma panel, which furthers Pioneer's continued goal of
reducing environmental waste in consumer electronics, now
during the manufacturing process and in the future during the
recycling process.
Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer
PDP-506HDG/PDP-436HDG 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 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 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 "STANDBY" mode.
Installation guidelines
The Pioneer PureVision PDP-506HDG/PDP-436HDG 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.
