HANDY TIPS

• Images may become “burnt” into the screen phosphors if the screen is left on for extended periods. To ensure that the display has a

prolonged service life, be sure to use a screen saver. This will ensure the same image or pattern is not constantly displayed for long periods. (See P. E-38–E-39.)

• The display’s plasma display panel, which is built for maximum precision, provides more than 99.99% effective pixels. You may find,

however, that some pixels constantly remain lit or dimmed.

• The display has a fan to prevent its internal temperature from rising.

The fan starts if the surrounding temperature or the internal temperature of the display exceeds a certain level. If the display is installed improperly or installed in the wrong direction, the resulting internal temperature increase will cause the fan to operate.

• Be careful with the air delivered by the fan. It may be very hot.

• Contact your dealer if you find that the display does not seem to function properly when used with other audio-visual equipment.

You may need to move your display if it produces degraded images or noise due to electromagnetic radiation, or if the infrared remote control does not function properly.

• Images may not be displayed properly if you connect a non-standard PC to the RGB input terminal. In this case, contact your dealer

for more information.

• The protective circuit, built into the display, automatically turns off the power if the display has a problem. In this case, you will see

that the power indicator lamp flashes red.

Warning

If the power indicator lamp flashes red, this signifies that the display has developed a problem. When this happens, be sure to remove the power plug from the receptacle to prevent fire or electric shock. Then, check the display in accordance with the instructions given on P. E-44, or contact your dealer.

• Viewing the screen constantly for extended periods can strain your eyes. Be sure to stay at a proper distance (at least 1.5 m or 5 feet)

from the screen and to look occasionally away it while working.

• Have the display inspected and cleaned by your dealer at regular intervals.

E-6

INSTALLATION

To prevent the display’s internal components from overheating, make sure that the display is installed in a well-ventilated location. Be sure to use the (optionally available) stand, wall-mounting unit or the other unit when installing the display. Also, be also sure that

your dealer performs the actual installation. See the appropriate instruction manual for more information on the installation hardware you select.

To ensure proper heat radiation, provide at least as much space around the display as shown below.

* Make sure that the display is installed in a location where the temperature can be maintained between 0°C and 40°C. * Never attempt to tilt the display sideways or backward. * To prevent the power and other cables from being accidentally pulled, make sure that they run along the wall or through corners. * The display can be installed with either of its sides facing down.

Information

• You cannot select Auto mode when you are in Comp.video mode (video input mode).

• You may not be able to watch images clearly in Auto mode, depending on the contents of the image software you use. If you experience problems, use to switch to a mode that provides the optimum screen size.

* With some games, the zoom screen (with upper and lower unviewable areas) may be selected. * With some images of standard size (i.e., 4 (frame width) x 3 (frame height)), the zoom screen may be selected if the upper and lower sections of

the image in a scene are extremely dark.

* Some images are designed such that the zoom screen is automatically selected as necessary. With some of these images, however, the screen size

may not be immediately switched over to the zoom screen if the first scene contains an extremely dark image.

Note

• A variety of image modes are available with this display. Remember that if you select a mode with an aspect ratio (ratio of frame width to frame height) different from that of the TV program or video media, the images will appear differently than if you had selected a mode having the same aspect ratio.

• Showing a movie or similar premium event at a different aspect ratio from its original one at any event site, restaurant, or bar for profit-making purposes or for a public audience may constitute a copyright infringement.

For films, try to select a mode having the same aspect ratio as the original image; this enables the director’s original intentions to be preserved.

Reference

See P. E-28–E-29 for how to adjust the image size and position.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Precautions

Be sure to remove the power plug from the receptacle before cleaning the display.

Be sure not to clean the display using a cloth dampened with volatile solvents, such as benzene or thinner. Such solvents can harm the display’s cabinet, the filter at the screen front, and the remote control. They can also cause paint to come off these sections.

Cleaning the Cabinet and Remote Control

Use a soft cloth for cleaning. If the cabinet or remote control is heavily stained, soak a soft cloth

in a mixture of water and detergent and squeeze it dry before wiping off the stains. Use a soft, dry cloth for final cleaning.

Cleaning the Screen

Clean the screen gently with a soft cloth. The screen surface is fragile. Never attempt to clean it with a hard

material, press on it forcefully, or tap it.
