Doing so could result in damage.

Additional fall prevention measures.

To protect the Plasma TV from tipping over due to earthquakes or shocks, fasten the two safety fittings to the screw holes on the rear of the Plasma TV using the two safety fitting mount screws, then pass a commercially available rope or chain through the fittings and secure the Plasma TV to a wall, pillar or other sturdy object using screws and hooks. (Do not do this when using the separately sold ceiling mount unit or wall mount unit.) While moving the Plasma TV, Pay attention to the rope or chain that tags along the back of the TV.

Image Sticking:

The plasma TV illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor will be degraded to such ex tend that stationary images would burn-in that part of the scree n as grayed-out im ages. Tips to prevent such image sticking are: * Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or hi-contrast images, such as monochrome characters

and graphic patterns for long.

* Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at appropriate interv als of time, or try to

move them using screen saver function.

* Turn down the contrast and brightness control.

Note: Such “Image Sticking” constitute misuse are NOT COVERED by the manufacturer’s warranty.

6. Do not install the product on unstable fixtures or stands. The installation of the product should be conducted in accordance with the instructions and using the support recommended by the manufacturer.

7. Do not remove the earthing pin on the power plug. The product is supplied with a three-pin earthing-type power plug, this plug will only fit an earthing-type power outlet. This is a safety feature, if you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the purpose of the earthing plug.

8. Avoid overloading the power cord. Using extension cables or the cor ds of other a ppliances m ay cause fire or electric shock.

9. If any of the following occurs please contact the retailer:

y The power supply or connector fails. y Liquid sprays or any object drops into the TV. y The TV is exposed to rain or other moisture. y If the product doesn’t function properly, you can only follow the instructions of the user manual to
