Troubleshooting
Incorrect operations are often mistaken for trouble and malfunctions. If you think that there is something wrong
with this component, check the points below. Sometimes the trouble may lie in another component. Inspect the
other components and electrical appliances being used. If the trouble cannot be rectified even after exercising the
checks listed below, ask your nearest PIONEER authorized service center or your dealer to carry out repair work.
The power of the Dis-
play cannot be turned
on.
The power is shut off
automatically
No image appears
on the screen.
The remote control
does not work.
The picture is too
dark. *
• Insert the power plug into the
outlet.
• Remove obstacles covering the
vents.
• Clean vents on the side and
the rear.
• Switch to the correct input.
• Connect the other necessary
equipment properly to the Dis-
play.
• Adjust correctly the picture/pic-
ture quality.
• Input signals which your
Plasma Display can receive.
• Set the G on SYNC mode
switch to OFF.
• Replace the batteries.
• Remove the obstacle between
the remote control and the re-
mote control sensor.
• Operate the remote control
within the controllable range.
• Do not place obstacles which
may reflect the infrared rays
near the Plasma Display.
• Adjust the brightness and con-
trast of the picture correctly.
* CAUTION
To prevent its panels and circuits, overheating when the surrounding temperature exceeds 40°C, this unit raises
the rotational speed of the fan automatically to cool the insides. (The fan rotation sound will become louder.)
The starting temperature of the above protection operation differs according to the images displayed, ventilation
conditions of the external environment, whether dust has accumulated in the vents of the Plasma Display, etc.
Use the Plasma Display in surrounding temperatures below 40°C.

CAUTION
To protect the panel drive circuit against unstable signal inputs, operations such as switching of inputs cannot
be performed until the input becomes stable again.
Consequently, if an equipment connected to the unit outputs unstable signals, it may not be possible to per-
form operations using the remote controller and buttons on the unit. This can be solved by disconnecting the
equipment outputting the unstable signal.
