l portant User Guidance information
In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer
PureVision PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD Plasma Display
System, please first read this information carefully.
With the Pioneer PureVision PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD,
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
Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the
Pioneer PDP-5040HD/PDP-4340HD Plasma Display
System will diminish very slowly, such as with all
phosphopbased screens (for example, a traditional tube-
type television). ]o enjoy beautiful and bright images on
your Pioneer Plasma Display System for many years to
come, please carefully read and follow the usage
guidelines below.
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 recommendations listed
below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from
your plasma:
Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying the
same irnage 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
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 'fV, 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 over 3 times
longer than the previous still/movin.(l image.
. After using the Plasma Display System, always switch
the display to "STANDBY" mode.
Installation guidelines

_k CAUTUON
Panel sticking and after-image lag
Displaying 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 remaining electric load
When image patterns with very 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} doe to boming
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 fluores-
cent materials. Such images may become less noticeable
if moving images are later displayed, bet they will not
disappear completely.
, The Energy save function can be set to help prevent
damage from screen burning (see page 54).

Plasma Display protection 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 because the pro-
tection function of the Plasma Display automatically ad-
justs the brightness to protect the screen when detecting
still images', so this does not designate malfunction, The
screen is dimmed when a still irr_,ageis detected for about
three minutes,

What is i.LJNK?
i,LINK is a digital sedal h_terface for handling digital
video, digital audio, and other data in two directions,
i,LINK is Sony's terra for the IEEE 1394 data transport
bus, Digital AV 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.MNK devices are connectable?
For 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
What can be recorded through i.MNK?
With D-VHS recorders connected to this system
through i,LINK, you can record only digital TV pro-

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, You
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,
.'R) record digital TV programs using connected D-VHS
recorders, use D-VHS tape, You cannot use 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 ]]'ansmission Con-
tent Protection (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 DTCR
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 irr_,age
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 recorde__,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,
