Troubleshooting

If the following error codes appear on the screen, check the corresponding items in the table.

Problem Possible Solution

•No power.

• The system cannot be switched on.

• Is the power cord disconnected? (See page 17.)

•Has POWER been turned on? (See page 20.)

• Check if you pressed buttons 0 to 9 on the remote control unit. (See page 20.)

• If the indicator on the system lights up red, press 0 to 9.

• The system cannot be operated. • External influences such as lightning, static electricity, etc., may cause improper operation.

• In this case, operate the system after first turning off the power of the Plasma Television, or unplugging the

power cord and re-plugging it in after 1 or 2 minutes.

• Remote control unit does not operate. • Is the TV indicator on the remote control unit lighted? Press SELECT on the remote control unit to select the TV

mode.

• Are batteries inserted with polarity (+, –) aligned? (See page 19.)

• Are batteries worn out? Replace with new batteries. (See page 19.)

• Operate the remote control unit while pointing it toward the remote control sensor on the Plasma Television.

(See page 19.)

• Are you using it under strong or fluorescent lighting?

• Is a fluorescent light illuminated to remote control sensor?

• No image and audio is presented. • Check if the input source for video or PC has been unintentionally selected although you want to watch a TV

channel. (See page 21.)

• Check if you have selected a channel blocked with Child Lock. (See page 28.)

• Enter a password to temporarily cancel Child Lock. (See page 41.)

• Check the cable connection with the antenna. (See page 18.)

• Check the cable connection with the other equipment. (See pages 43 to 48.)

• No picture. • Is connection to other components correct? (See pages 43 to 48.)

• Is a non-compatible PC signal being input? (See page 47.)

• Is the Input Select setting correct? (See page 38.)

• Audio is output but no image is

presented.

• Check if you have selected “Picture Off” for Energy Save. With this option selected, the screen is deactivated:

only sound is output. To restore the screen display, press any button other than i +/i

– or e.

(See page 35.)

• Images are presented but no audio is

output.

• Check if you have selected the minimum volume. (See page 22.)

• Check if you have muted sound. (See page 22.)

• Check if phones are still in connection with the PHONES output terminal. (See pages 12 and 13.)

• When using PC as the input source, check that the audio terminal is also in connection.

(See page 47.)

• Sound is reversed between the right

and left.

•

Sound is output from only a single speaker.

• Check if the speaker cable connections have been reversed between the right and left or if the speaker cable

from either speaker has been disconnected (for PDP-507XA only). (See page 12.)

• Has the balance been correctly adjusted? (See page 34.)

• Picture is cut off. • Is the image position correct? (See page 37.)

• Has the correct screen size been selected? (See pages 39 and 40.)

• Strange colour, light colour, dark or

colour misalignment.

• Adjust the picture tone. (See pages 30 to 33.)

• Is the room too bright? The picture may look dark in a room that is too bright.

• Check the colour system setting. (See pages 28 and 38.)

• Power is suddenly turned off. • The system’s internal temperature has increased. Remove any objects blocking vent or clean. (See page 15.)

• Check the power control setting. (See page 35.)

• Check the sleep timer setting. (See page 41.)

• After-image lag • After displaying a still image or a very bright image for a certain period of time, if the screen is then switched

to a darker scene, the previous image may appear as an after-image.

• This can be rectified by playing a rather bright moving image for several minutes. However, displaying a still

image for excessively long periods of time may cause permanent display deterioration.

• Brightness and colour tone on both

sides differ from those in the centre in

4:3 mode.

• If images in 4:3 mode or letterbox images are displayed for long periods or for shorter periods over several

days, an after-image may remain due to burning. This is a characteristic of Plasma Displays.

• It is recommended that you enjoy watching images in wide screen as much as possible. (See page 39.)

• When watching images in 4:3 mode, it is recommended that you select “Auto” in the Side Mask setting that

adjusts the brightness of the grey side masks according to the brightness of images. (See page 40.)

• Panel sounds/noises • Panel generated sounds,examples: Fan motor noise, Electrical Circuit Humming/Glass Panel buzzing are

normal operation of a phosphor-based matrix display.

• When you change the Energy Save mode, you may notice a change in the panel sound. This is normal.

• POWER ON indicator or STANDBY

indicator is quickly flashing.

• Internal protective circuits may have been activated. First turn the main power off by pressing POWER on the

Plasma Television, and then turn the power on again in after one minute or more. If the problem is not solved

with this, contact a Pioneer Service Center. These are listed on your warranty card for each country.

Alternatively, check the Pioneer Web site (see cover) for contact details.
