w
SMALL PARTS CAN PRESENT CHOKING HAZARD IF ACCIDENTALLY SWALLOWED. KEEP SMALL PARTS AWAY FROM YOUNG CHILDREN. DISCARD UNNEEDED SMALL PARTS AND OTHER OBJECTS, INCLUDING PACKAGING MATERIALS AND PLASTIC BAGS/SHEETS TO PREVENT THEM FROM BEING PLAYED WITH BY YOUNG CHILDREN, CREATING THE POTENTIAL RISK OF SUFFOCATION.
Setup
Do not place the Plasma TV on sloped or unstable surfaces.
The Plasma TV may fall off or tip over.
Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma TV.
If water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign
objects get inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in fire or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, please consult an Authorized Service Center.
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat,
which can cause fire or damage to the Plasma TV.
If using the pedestal, leave a space of
15/16 inch (10 cm) or more at the top,
3 left, and right; 2 at the bottom; and 2
3/8 inch (6 cm) or more
3/4 inch (7 cm) or
more at the rear. If using some other method for setup, leave a space of
15/16 inch (10 cm) or more at the
3 top, bottom, left, and right; and
3/4 inch (1.9 cm) or more at the rear.
Avoid installing this product near electronic equipment that is readily affected by electromagnetic waves.
It may cause interference in image, sound, etc. In
particular, keep video equipment away from this product.
Heat sources
This product should be situated away from heat
sources such as fireplaces, chimneys, radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers).
AC Power Supply Cord
The Plasma TV is designed to operate on 120 Vv, 50/60 Hz. Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will go, and use the clamp to secure it. (See “AC cord” on page 8.)
If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be
generated which could cause fire. If the plug is damaged or the wall socket plate is loose, they should not be used.
Safety Precautions
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.
Doing so may cause electric shocks.
Safety Precautions 1
Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.
Do not make any modifications to, place heavy
objects on, place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist, or forcefully pull the power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable which can cause fire or electric shock. If damage to the cable is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.
If the Plasma TV will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma TV, unplug the power cord immediately.
Continued use of the TV under these conditions
might cause fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the TV evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Service to the TV by any unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.
If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
A short may occur, which could cause fire.
Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.
When using the Plasma TV
Do not bring your hands, face, or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma TV.
The top of the Plasma TV is usually very hot due to
the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the TV could also result in heat damage to the object as well as to the TV if its ventilation holes are blocked.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma TV.
Moving the TV with its cables attached might
damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from becoming dusty.
Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase
humidity which might damage the insulation and cause fire. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth.
This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays; therefore, it may affect other infrared communication equipment. Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or reflected light from your Plasma TV.
2 HP Pavilion Plasma HDTV User’s Guide
Cleaning and Maintenance
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
