Maintenance And Cleaning - Pioneer PDP-433CMX Technical Manual

Maintenance and Cleaning

1) Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
2) Cabinet and remote control unit
Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, which can damage or destroy the coating on the cabinet or the
remote control unit.
Remove dirt by lightly wiping with a soft cloth.
If necessary, slightly moisten the cloth with neutral detergent, diluted with water. In humid conditions, wipe off
condensation with a dry cloth.
3) Screen (front protection panel)
The screen surface (front protection panel) is coated with a delicate anti-glare material. To clean the screen dust off
and wipe lightly with a soft cloth. Do not rub with tissue paper or hard abrasive materials.
Never use solvents such as benzene or thinner, which can discolor the screen or render it opaque.
For cleaning, we recommend the following cloth and fluid.
Name
Cleaning cloth, wiping cloth
Cleaning cloth: Minimax
Cleaning liquid: B4
For light soiling, brush off dust and lightly wipe with Minimax. In case of heavy soiling, brush off dust, then wipe with
Minimax with its corner lightly moistened with B4. Be sure to wipe with dry Minimax after B4 dries out as there may
be unevenness remaining otherwise.
4) Vents
Every month, remove dirt from the vent openings that house fans on the sides and rear of the main unit, using a
vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting. Be sure to switch off the power on the main unit before cleaning
the vents.
Blocked vents can lead to dangerously high internal temperatures, resulting in malfunctions or fire.
5) Readjustment of White Balance
The unit uses phosphor elements, as do CRTs. These phosphors degrade over time, reducing brightness. Since
green and blue phosphors degrade faster than red, we recommend readjusting the white balance every 1000 hours.
