PRECAUTIONS
• Installation environment
Do not obstruct a ventilation hole. Do not put the monitor on carpet or blanket, or near a curtain which has a possibility of obstructing a ventilation hole of the monitor.
Do not put the monitor in the following places.
• Hot places such as near heater, place exposed to the direct rays of the sun.
• A place where the temperature is widely changing.
• Places with soot, dust or high humidity.
• Poor air ventilation place.
• Place near fire.
• A wet place such as bathroom, or shower room.
• Place where you can trip over it.
• Always vibrating or strongly vibrating places.
• Distorted or unstable places.
• How to view the monitor
If you use the monitor in too dark a room, your eyes may become tired. Please use it in a reasonably bright room. Avoid direct rays of the sun to the screen in order to prevent eye fatigue. Your eyes will get fatigued after viewing the monitor for long period of time. Relax your eyes by viewing away from the monitor from time to time. Please watch the monitor in downward direction.
• Note on image retention
The plasma monitor 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 extent that stationary images would burn-in that part of the screen as grayed-out images. Tips to prevent such image retention are:
- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or high-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 intervals of time, or try to move them using screen saver function.
- Turn down the contrast and brightness controls.
• How to clean the plasma screen panel of the monitor
Before cleaning the monitor, turn off the monitor and disconnect the power plug from the power outlet. To prevent scratching or damaging the plasma screen face, do not knock or rub the surface with sharp or hard objects. Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. If it is not enough, then use a cloth with mild detergent. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
• How to clean the cabinet of the monitor
Use a soft cloth to clean the cabinet and control panel of the monitor. When excessively soiled dilute a neutral detergent in water, wet and wring out the soft cloth and afterward wipe with a dry soft cloth. Never use acid/alkaline detergent, alcoholic detergent, abrasive cleaner, powder soap, OA cleaner, car wax, glass cleaner, etc. especially because they would cause discoloration, scratches or cracks.
CAUTION
Be careful in moving the monitor.
Neglect could result in an injury or damage.
• Do not move the monitor during use. Before moving, disconnect the power plug and all external connections.
• You are advised to move the monitor with two persons.
• Avoid any impact or shock to the monitor; particularly take care of glass screen.
Do not put anything on top of the monitor.
Placing anything on the monitor could result in loss of balance or falling, and cause an injury or damage. Use special caution in households where children are present.
Avoid a humid or dusty place.
Placing the monitor in a smoke, a highly humid, dusty place, oily soot or corrosive gas could result in fire or electrical shock.
• Do not place near the kitchen, a humidifier or other place where there is oil, smoke or humidity.
Avoid a high temperature environment.
The heat could have adverse influence on the monitor and other parts, and could result in transformation, melting or fire.
• Do not place the monitor, the remote control and other parts in direct sunlight or near a hot object such as heater, etc.
• Do not put the monitor in a place where the temperature is widely changing.
Remove the power cord for complete separation.

NOTES
About screen defects
• High precision technology is used in the making of plasma panels but there may be dark spots (points that do not illuminate) and bright spots (points that are too bright) in some cases. These do not indicate a malfunction.
About residual images
• In some cases, residual images may remain after the short-term display of still images and another image is displayed, but these will disappear and return to normalcy. This is not a malfunction.
About the panel screen
• Plasma displays display images by means of electrical discharges inside the panel. Because of this, the temperature of the panel surface may rise in some cases.Also, plasma displays are made of finely processed glass. A reinforced glass filter is installed over the panel surface but avoid strong impact because there is still danger of glass breakage.
IMAGE RETENTION OF PLASMA DISPLAY
There are different characteristics that result in panel image retention depending on how the plasma display is used. Situations and effective usage methods related to ghosting are provided below.
Image retention characteristics of a plasma display
The image retention phenomenon of a plasma panel occurs due to partial phosphor degradation arising from partial character and figure display.
For example, when the character image as shown in Fig. A at the right is continuously displayed for a long period of time, the only part of the phosphor (Red,Green, Blue) that will degrade will be the color of the applicable character display portion. Consequently, when a white image is displayed on the entire screen as shown in Fig. a, the character marks displayed up to that time will become a color difference visible to the eye, but the phosphor will never burn.
The degree of image retention is proportional to the brightness of the characters and figures displayed as well as the display time.
• The tendency of the phosphor is to degrade more the brighter the characters and figures are displayed. When images of figures with different levels of brightness, as shown in Fig. B, are continuously displayed for a long period of time, it becomes easier for image marks at locations when the brighter figures
are displayed to be noticeable.
*
The image retention images in this document are exaggerated for the purpose of explanation. The actual manner in which the image retention is seen differs depending on the operation time and brightness.
Methods to Reduce the Occurrence of Image Retention
• Lower the Contrast and Brightness settings of the plasma display as much as possible. A function is provided in the display that controls the brightness of the screen to reduce degradation of the panel. Using this function makes it possible to reduce image retention. (Refer to Panel Life (Extend 1.or Extend 2 shown on )
• Set the plasma monitor to an “Screen Wipe” or “Inverse” display. The occurrence of image retention when displaying images of identical patterns, such as static images, for long periods of time can be reduced by displaying a reversed color or completely white screen for about 1 ~ 2 hours after terminating the display. (Settings can be made using Screen Wipe and Inverse of Function MENU shown on )
• Using in combination with moving images Since the degradation of the fluorescent material progresses comparatively uniform for moving images, the occurrence of partial image retention can be controlled. We recommend to use in combination with moving images such as a DVD. * Please be careful since image retention will occur if display is left in a two screen display state for a long period of time. * Television broadcasts include images displayed for long periods of time in which the left and right or top and bottom of the image are cut and
broadcast station name or time are displayed for a long period of time at the same portion of the screen. Image retention in these portions can be expected to occur, so please be aware.
