Burn-in
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long time causes a part of the image to stay
on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).
Avoid burn-in as follows.
Use the PICTURE SHIFT function. To prevent burn-in, the picture displayed on the screen is shifted up, down
and to the left and right at regular intervals. See page 30 for details.
• Even if the PICTURE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture may shift to the left or right when the channel or input is changed.
The PICTURE MODE function is initially set to BRIGHT. Unless the TV is being watched in an extremely bright
room, it is recommended to change the PICTURE MODE setting to either STANDARD or SOFT. Doing so will
reduce the chance of PDP burn-in and extend the life of the PDP. See “PICTURE MODE” on page 21
Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.
While an image is displayed With power OFF
19:03
Burn-in example
19:03
• Reduce CONTRAST and BRIGHT on the PICTURE SETTING menu (page 21) when viewing.
Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 15).
Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen. After viewing in the REGULAR mode in
which black bands may occur at the left and right of the screen, it is recommended to change to the PANORAMIC mode to display
the picture on the entire screen.
While an image is displayed With power OFF
Burn-in example
Do not view for long periods of time using the PIP function (page 16) or MULTI-PICTURE function (page 17).
If Burn-in has occurred
If burn-in occurs, try the REFRESH function (page 30). If burn-in is minimal it may gradually become less noticeable.
Note:Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

Pixel defects
PDPs use collections of fine dots (“pixels”) to display images. While there is no problem with more than 99.99% of these pixels,
please understand that a very small number of pixels may not light, or may light all the time.
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to electromagnetic waves
It may cause interference in images, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from this product.
Effect on infrared devices
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.
Failure to heed the following precautions may result in damage to the TV or remote control.
DO NOT block the TV’s ventilation openings or holes.
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be able to get out.)
DO NOT place anything on top of the TV.
(such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)
DO NOT allow objects or liquid into the cabinet openings.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)
DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the TV.
The surface of the TV screen is easily damaged. Be very careful with it when handling the TV.
Should the TV screen become soiled, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Never rub it hard.
Never use any cleaner or detergent on it.
In the event of a fault, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it yourself or remove the rear cover.

If your TV can detect the TV channel name from the TV
channel broadcast signal, the TV channel name is
assigned to the programme number (PR) to which the
TV channel has been set. However, which TV channels
are set to which programme numbers (PR) will depend
on the area in which you live.
• If a TV channel you want to view is not set to a
programme number (PR), you can set it using the
MANUAL function. For details, see “EDIT/MANUAL”
on page 32.
• The AUTO PROGRAM function does not set the
programme number PR 0 (AV) for your video cassette
recorder. You will need to set this using the MANUAL
function.
• In some areas you may get TV reception from more than
one transmitter, for example different ITV regions. In
this case each TV channel could be set twice. If this
happens, the first set of channels will have the stronger
signal. If you want to delete the second set of channels,
you will have to do it manually (see page 34).

T-V LINK functions
When you have a T-V LINK compatible VCR connected to
the EXT-2 Terminal on the TV, it is easier to set up the VCR
and to view videos. T-V LINK uses the following features:
To use T-V LINK functions:
A “T-V LINK compatible VCR” means a JVC video
cassette recorder with the T-V LINK logo, or with one of
the following logos. However, these VCRs may support
some or all of the features described earlier. For details, see
your VCR instruction manual.
“Q-LINK” (a trademark of Panasonic Corporation)
“Data Logic” (a trademark of Metz Corporation)
“Easy Link” (a trademark of Phillips Corporation)
“Megalogic” (a trademark of Grundig Corporation)
“SMARTLINK” (a trademark of Sony Corporation).
Pre-set download
The VCR will automatically download the registered data on
the TV channels from the TV. This means you do not need
to set up the program channels on your VCR manually.
The preset download function automatically begins when
the initial setting is complete or whenever you carry out the
AUTO PROGRAM or EDIT/MANUAL functions.
You can also carry out this function using your VCR controls.
When “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed:
If “FEATURE NOT AVAILABLE” is displayed, the
download was not performed correctly. Before trying to
download again, check that:
• the VCR power is turned on
• the VCR is T-V LINK compatible
• the VCR is connected to the EXT-2 terminal
• the SCART cable is fully wired.
Direct Rec
“What You See Is What You Record”
You can easily record to VCR the images that you are
watching on the TV.
For details, read the manual for your VCR.
Use your VCR controls. “VCR IS RECORDING” is displayed.
In the following situations, the VCR will stop
recording if the TV is turned off, if the TV channel
or input is changed, or if the menu is displayed on
the TV:
• when recording images from an external device
connected to the TV (for example a camcorder)
• when recording a TV channel after it has been
unscrambled on a decoder
• when recording a TV channel by using the TV’s output
because the VCR’s own tuner cannot properly receive
that channel.
When the VCR is not ready (for example when there is no
tape inserted), “NO RECORDING” is displayed.
You cannot carry out Direct Rec using your TV’s control.
Generally, the VCR cannot record a TV channel that it
cannot receive properly on its own tuner, even if you can
view that TV channel on the TV. However, some VCRs can
record a TV channel by using the TV’s output if that
channel can be viewed on the TV. For details, see your
VCR instruction manual.
TV auto power on/VCR image view
When the VCR starts playing, the TV automatically turns on
and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on the screen.
When the VCR menu is operated, the TV automatically
turns on and the images from the EXT-2 terminal appear on
the screen.

DIGITAL VNR
The DIGITAL VNR function cuts down the amount of
‘noise’ (‘snow’ or interference) in the original picture.
You can choose from the three DIGITAL VNR function
settings of AUTO, MIN and MAX.
AUTO:
The TV will automatically adjust the level of the DIGITAL
VNR effect to match the amount of noise in the picture,
giving you the best possible picture.
• If you set the DIGITAL VNR effect too high it can make
the picture less sharp. It is recommended to use the
AUTO setting if you can.
• AUTO cannot be chosen when you are watching the
EXT-4 picture.
MIN:
The level of the DIGITAL VNR effect is set to the
minimum. If you set the DIGITAL VNR function to AUTO
but feel that the sharpness of the original picture has not
been reproduced fully, change the setting from AUTO to
MIN.
• The MIN setting is not suitable for low-quality pictures
which contain a lot of noise.
MAX:
The level of the DIGITAL VNR effect is set to the
maximum. If you set the DIGITAL VNR function to AUTO
but still notice some noise, change the setting from AUTO
to MAX.
• The MAX setting is not suitable for high-quality pictures
which contain very little noise.
• When a progressive-scanning picture is being displayed,
“DIGITAL VNR” cannot be selected.
• The DIGITAL VNR function does not work for
progressive-scanning pictures.
Super DigiPure
The Super DigiPure function uses the latest in digital
technology to give you a natural-looking picture. The Super
DigiPure function includes the following two functions.
DigiPure function:
This function helps to create a natural-looking picture by
eliminating unnecessary edges from high-contrast and crisp
images. For images with low-contrast, edges are added to
produce a sharper, more detailed picture.
You can choose from the three DigiPure function settings of
AUTO, MIN and MAX.
• If you set the DigiPure effect too high on a low-quality
picture that contains a lot of noise, this may actually
make the noise worse. We recommend you use the
AUTO setting if you can.
Picture motion compensation function:
This function displays fast-moving pictures (for example,
the players or ball in a football game) more smoothly and
naturally on the screen.
• The effect level of the picture motion compensation
function cannot be changed. The effect level is the same
no matter which of the AUTO, MIN or MAX settings is
used.

you set the Super DigiPure function to AUTO and notice
some noise, change the setting from AUTO to MIN.

S-IN (S-VIDEO input)
You can connect a device (such as an S-VHS VCR) to enjoy
the high-quality picture of the S-VIDEO signal (Y/C
signal).
Preparation:
• First read the device’s instruction manual and
“Additional preparation” on page 37 to connect the
device to the TV properly. Second, follow the device’s
instruction manual to set the device so that it sends an
S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) to the TV.
• Do not set S-IN (S-VIDEO input) to the EXT terminal
connected to a device which cannot output an S-VIDEO
(Y/C signal). If it is set wrongly, a picture cannot appear.
1 Choose an EXT terminal
2 Press the yellow button and set the S-IN (S-
VIDEO input).
Then press the aaaa button
An S-IN (S-VIDEO input) mark is displayed. You can
view an S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) instead of the
regular video signal (composite signal).
To cancel the S-IN (S-VIDEO input) setting:
Press the yellow button and turn off S-IN (S-VIDEO
input) mark. The regular video signal (composite signal)
pictures are resumed.
• The EXT-1 terminal does not support S-VIDEO
signal (Y/C signal) and you cannot set S-IN (SVIDEO input) in the EXT-1 terminal.
• Setting S-IN (S-VIDEO input) changes the head
character from “E” to “S”. When an EXT terminal
receives a normal video signal, “E2”, “E3” or “E5”
appears on the display. This changes to “S2”, “S3” or
“S5” when it receives an S-VIDEO signal.
• Even a device which can output an
S-VIDEO signal (Y/C signal) may output a regular
video signal (composite signal) depending on the
device setting. If a picture cannot appear because the
S-IN (S-VIDEO input) setting has been made, read
the device instruction manual carefully again to
check for the device settings.
ID LIST

connected for each EXT terminal. Giving a name to an EXT
