Plasma television 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 protection function of the plasma television automatically adjusts the brightness to protect the screen when detecting still images; so this does not designate malfunction. The screen is dimmed when a still image is detected for about three minutes.
Information of pixel defect
Plasma television displays information using pixels. Pioneer plasma television panels contain a very large number of pixels. (Depending on the panel size: over 3.1 million pixels for a 50 inch/ 60 inch display). All Pioneer display panels are manufactured using a very high level of
In rare cases, some pixels can be permanently switched off, or on, resulting in either a black or colored pixel permanently fixed on the screen.
This effect is common to all plasma television because it is a consequence of the technology.
If the defective pixels are visible at a normal viewing distance of between 2.5 meters and 3.5 meters while viewing a normal broadcast (i.e. not a test card, still image or single color display) please contact the supplying dealer.
If, however, they can only be seen close up or during single color displays then this is considered normal for this technology.
Infrared rays
The plasma television releases infrared rays because of its characteristics. Depending on how the plasma television is in use, the remote controls of nearby equipment may be adversely affected or wireless headphones using infrared rays are interfered by noise. If this is the case, place that equipment at a location where its remote control sensor is not affected.
Condensation
