Handling the Standard Mounting Components

4.2 Handling the Standard Mounting Components

4.2.1 Handling precautions

This section of the manual discusses ways to mount, install, and handle the mounting hardware exclusively designed for Pioneer Plasma Displays. Mounting should be performed by qualified experts.

Refer all installation and mounting work to qualified installers, or request assistance from a Pioneer dealer.

4.2.2 Precautions for installation contractors

1)Before installation

Observe the specifications supplied in “3.1 Installation Site Requirements” earlier in this manual.

2)During Installation

Carefully read and observe the contents of this section of the manual. The installation work should be performed by two or more people.

3)After installation

After installation the mounting hardware, check for adequate strength and properly tightened screws. Repeat this inspection after mounting the display.

4)Delivering to the customer (1)Explaining mounting precautions

The mounting contractor is responsible for explaining the following precautions to the customer after mounting and installation work is complete. Even if the particulars of an installation are letter-perfect, your work may be perceived as inadequate unless you patiently and thoroughly explain these precautions to the customer.

¶The following are highly dangerous and must be avoided at all times:

• Any sudden application of force, including pushing and pulling

• Splashing water on the unit

• Placing any object on the unit

• Touching mount screws and other mounting hardware

¶For worry-free use of the unit:

•If problem arises, the user should immediately ask the installation contractor to inspect the unit and make repairs if necessary.

•To guard against accidents, ask the customer avoid making tilt or height adjustments. Changes should be referred to the installation contractor.

(2)Mounting contractor contact form

As the mounting and installation contractor, please complete the contractor contact form supplied with the unit and give it to the end-user after post-installation inspections are complete.

(3)Periodic inspections

Over time, aging of various components of the suspension/mounting hardware that may not be readily visible can render the installation unreliable. This may lead to the display breaking free of its mounting. Please recommend periodic inspections.
