Pioneer Plasma Display Panel Assembly instructions

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL
Regular cleaning will extend the life and performance of your Pioneer plasma display panel. The
recommended way to clean the display screen and vents is described below.
Note: Always unplug the panel before beginning to clean the unit.
Wipe the Display Screen
(never use harsh chemicals) Vacuum the Back Vents (your vent locations may vary)
CLEANING THE DISPLAY SCREEN
The display screen surface scratches easily. After dusting, gently wipe the screen using the
provided cleaning cloth or a piece of soft flannel or cotton. Do NOT use a tissue, paper towel,
rough-textured cloth, or a wet cloth. Rough textures can scratch the screen and water can seep
under the frame edge. Also avoid rubbing or pushing on the screen.
CLEANING THE VENTS
Blocked or clogged panel vents can cause the internal temperature to increase. High
temperatures can damage the plasma’s components, resulting in a malfunction or fire. Use a
vacuum cleaner to remove any dust build-up from the vents. The best practice is to clean the
vents once a month or more often, as needed. Set the vacuum cleaner to its weakest setting to
avoid damaging the panel then lightly brush across the vents.
Note: For cleaning the plasma chassis, do not use solvents such as benzene or thinner. Wipe with a
soft cloth.
