CAUTION

This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in personal injury or property damage.

Cautions

This product is a floor stand for plasma displays (PDP-506XDE / PDP-506FDE / PDP-506HDG / PDP-436XDE / PDP-436FDE / PDP-436HDG) from Pioneer. Use with other model is capable of resulting in instability causing possible injury. For further information, please contact the store where you purchased your display.

Do not install or modify the product other than specified. Do not use this stand for a plasma display other than those designated and do not modify it or use it for other purposes.

Improper installation is extremely dangerous because it may result in it falling over or other accident.

Installation Location

• When selecting the location in which the stand is to be placed, be sure to select a location with a surface sufficiently strong to bear the weight of the stand and plasma display (Product weight is listed on page 15).
• Make sure to place it in a level and stable location.
• Depending on the type of surface on which the stand is placed, the casters may leave marks on the surface, and this should be taken into consideration when selecting the place in which the stand is to be placed.
• Do not install it outdoors, at a hot spring, or near a beach.
• Do not install the stand where it may be subjected to vibration or shock.

Assembling and Installation

• Assemble the stand in accordance with the assembly instructions and securely attach all screws at the designated locations.

There have been cases where unforeseen accidents such as the equipment breaking or falling over occurred after the installation of the display because the stand was not installed as instructed.

• The display must always be installed by two or more people to assure it is installed safely.
• Before installation, turn off the power for the display and peripheral devices then remove the power cord plug from the power outlet.

After Installation

• Never lean on the plasma display or apply heavy pressure to the stand.
• Note that while the stand is fitted with casters to make it easily movable, when moving the stand you should always follow the instructions given on page 14 under "Moving the stand and display".
• Because of the nature of glass, the application of shocks to the edges can make it easy for the glass to break, and the application of any such shocks should therefore be strictly avoided. Due care should also be taken to keep children from bumping into the edges, as doing so might result in injury.
• Prevent accidents caused by the product falling over by taking reliable measures to prevent it from falling over (see page 14).

When installing speakers at the sides of the plasma display

• Use the short support legs.
• Use the hexagonal wrench included with the stand to do so.

B When installing speakers below the plasma display or one body type plasma display

• Use the long support legs.
• Use the hexagonal wrench included with the stand to do so.

The types of plasma displays which may be used with the stand differ depending on the length of the support legs attached to the PDP bracket, so you should check to see if the display to be attached is compatible before proceeding.

4 Attach plasma display to support legs.

Fit the stand's support columns to the bottom of the plasma display as indicated by the arrows, then slowly insert them vertically. Be extremely careful not to insert the support legs of the stand into any part of the plasma display other than the stand insertion slots. Note that doing so might damage the plasma display panel or its ports or result in the warping of the stand. If the plasma display is fitted with handles, it is usually best to hold the display by its handles when attaching it to the support legs.

• Be sure to work with at least one other person when attaching the display.
• Be careful not to allow your fingers get caught between the display and support legs.
• If the PDP bracket has been placed into the upper bracket holes and speakers are to be installed below the plasma display or one body type plasma display, care must be taken to ensure that the display is firmly supported as its position will be higher.

5 Use the middle or the long hexagonal bolts to fix the plasma display to the support legs (4 locations).

Please install starting with the bolts on the top.

When installing the PDP-506XDE / PDP-506FDE / PDP-506HDG / PDP-436XDE / PDP-436FDE / PDP-436HDG

Use the following bolts to fix it with the hexagonal wrench. Top Middle hexagonal bolts (M8 x 35 mm: black) Bottom Middle hexagonal bolts (M8 x 35 mm: black)

• If speakers are to be installed at the sides or the bottom of the plasma display, they should be attached at this phase.
• See the installation instructions provided with your speakers for instructions on how to install them.

When installing the one body type plasma display

Use the following bolts to fix it with the hexagonal wrench. Top ......... Long hexagonal bolts (M8 x 60 mm: silver) Bottom ......... Middle hexagonal bolts (M8 x 35 mm: black)

6 Attach left and right glass stays to support column.

① Insert the glass stays into the holes provided, pushing them all the way into the holes so that they point slightly downwards.
② Press down on the tips of the glass stays to lower them and fit the indentations into frames.

Glass stays may be inserted into the upper, middle, or lower holes to adjust the height of the glass panel (The middle holes are designed to be used for standard installation).

7 Attach the glass panel to the glass stays.

① Place the glass panel on top of the glass stays.

Note

The glass panel should be installed with the warning label facing upwards.

Fix it with the screws (M4 x 10 mm: black) (2 locations: left and right).

Be sure to use the screws to fix the glass panel into place. Note that failing to do so could cause the glass panel to fall off if you come into contact with it and result in the panel breaking.

8 Place equipment onto glass panel and connect equipment to display.

• Place the equipment to be connected to the display onto the glass panel and then connect the equipment to the display.
• Note that the glass panel and base are designed to be able to withstand loads of up to only 20 kilograms (44.1 lbs), and that the weight of the equipment placed onto the glass panel should never exceed this limit.

Note

When a video deck is placed on the glass panel, there may be times when the video deck interferes with the plasma display and causes distortion in the picture depending on the place of the video deck or on other conditions. If this happens, place the video deck on the base instead to avoid interference.

9 Attach cable cover.

Fit the cable cover into the center support column.

Note

Be careful when doing so not to allow cables to get caught between the cable cover and the cable insertion slots.

10 Attach one support column cover to the center support column to cover cables, and fix it with screws (M4 x 10 mm: silver) (2 screws, on the top and bottom).

Be careful not to allow cables to become caught in the support column covers.

11 Follow the same procedure to attach the support column cover on the other side, and fix it with screws (M4 x 10 mm: silver) (2 screws, on the top and bottom).
12 Attach cap.

13 Attach cable clamps.

The cable clamps may be used to bundle up any excess lengths of cable as shown in the diagram below.

Note

Be careful not to step on any cables when moving the stand.

Moving the stand and display

• When moving the stand and display, hold the stand by its center support column.
• When moving the stand and display, never do so by holding the plasma display, speakers, or glass panel, as doing so might result in breakage or damage to the equipment.
• When moving over an uneven surface of any kind, pick up the stand and display by the base of the stand.
• Be careful when you place the stand and display on a thick carpeted surface, because when you do, the fibers may become entwined in the casters preventing them from rolling.
• When moving the stand and display. Depending on the type of surface on which the stand is placed, the casters may leave marks on the surface, and this should be taken into consideration when selecting the place in which the stand is to be placed.

Preventing equipment from falling over

After installing the stand, be sure to take special care to ensure that the Plasma Display will not fall over.

1 Attaching falling prevention bolts to the Plasma Display.
2 Using strong cords or chains to stabilize it appropriately and firmly to a wall, pillar, or other sturdy element.
