• 480i (interlaced) signals can be connected to the COMPONENT 1 and 2 terminals. Any of the following display formats: 480i, 480p (progressive), 1080i and 720p (progressive) signals can be connected to the COMPONENT 2 terminal. If one of these video signals is detected, the format of the input signal is displayed after the name of the current input terminal, as in the following manner.

English

•A "No signal" message appears if there is no video signal and there is no message currently displayed on the screen for volume adjustment or the setup menu, etc. If there continues to be no video signal for more than 10 seconds, "No signal" slowly moves around the screen.

AINTENANCE

CLEANING THE PLASMA DISPLAY

Always unplug the plasma display from the AC outlet before cleaning.

Clean the case of the plasma display with a soft cloth which has been wet and wrung dry.

If the screen of the plasma display is dirty or dusty, wipe it clean with a soft cloth.

ARNING

NOTE:

Never use a solvent, alcohol or any other abrasive liquid to clean the plasma display. Always make sure the area around vents on the plasma display is clear and clean. Failure to do this may result in fire or cause the plasma display to fail prematurely.

Preventing Image Burn on the plasma display

Fixed images displayed on the plasma display for an extended period of several hours may cause uneven pixel aging causing damage to the plasma display. The screensaver mode helps reduce this phenomenon, but in general you should try to avoid displaying fixed images for extended periods on the plasma display.

Images of high luminance displayed on the plasma display for more than 60 seconds may cause lingering images to remain on the screen. These images will automatically disappear, but may take time depending on the luminance of the images and how long they were displayed on the screen.

ROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

•IGNITION NOISE: Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills and other electrical appliances.

•GHOSTS: Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system such as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to the same antenna without using multiple antenna couplers. Ghosting occurring when the plasma display is connected to a cable TV system may indicate a bad cable wire or loose connection. Confirm that the cable wire is properly connected.

•SNOW: If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture. Snowing occurring when the plasma display is connected to a cable TV system may indicate a bad cable wire or loose connection. Confirm that the cable wire is properly connected.

English

Vertical stripes appear, depending on the screen contents.

•RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE: The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

•PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS: This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers. lf this monitor causes a problem to Radio receivers, then take the following steps:

-Keep the monitor away from Radio.

-Adjust Radio antennas in order for the monitor not to receive interference.

-The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the monitor.

-Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

You can check if this monitor influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other than the monitor. If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the monitor, check the instructions mentioned above.

•The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of internal radiation. Depending on the screen contents, in rare cases this may cause vertical stripes to appear because of failure to light. Please note that this is not a malfunction.
