WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
The PDP Manufacturing Process: Why colored dots may be present on the PDP
screen
The PDP (Plasma Display Panel) which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. Afew cell defects will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. Several colored dots
visible on the screen should be acceptable. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products and the
dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is defective. Thus a few cell defects are not sufficient cause
for the PDP to be exchanged or returned. Our production technology is designed to minimize cell defects.
Cooling Fan Noise
In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the
PDP is equipped with cooling fans to cool the Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a certain level
of noise could occur while the fans are operating and cooling the PDP.
This noise doesn't have any negative effect on the PDP's efficiency or reliability. The noise from these fans
is normal during the operation of this product. We hope you understand that a certain level of noise from
the cooling fans is acceptable and is not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned.
Earth Wire (Ground Wire) should be connected.
(Please refer to Safety Instructions on page 6, Item 12. Power Cord Polarization)
- If the earth wire (ground wire) is not connected, there is possible a danger of electric shock caused by the
current leakage.
- If grounding methods are not possible, a separate circuit breaker should be employed and installed by a
qualified electrician.
- Do not connect ground wire to telephone wires, lightning rods or gas pipes.

• Avoid keeping a fixed image on the Monitor's screen for a long period of time. The fixed image may
become permanently imprinted on the screen; use a screen saver when possible.
• If the resolution output of the PC computer is over SVGA, connect the PC to the RGB-PC
(VGA/SVGA/XGA/SXGA) input port on the Monitor. Change the PC computer resolution output

• The Monitor is available to switch between external
adjustment and remote control adjustment using a
control line.
Note: If the control line is high, the monitor is controlled by the external control device. If the control
line is low, the Monitor is controlled by the Monitor's
remote control.
3-Wire Cable Configuration
• When using a 3-Wire cable configuration there is no
control line. The external control device must put the
Monitor into the "change into remote control adjustment mode" (see page 55). The Monitor will then be
able to be controlled by the remote control. If the
Monitor is turned back on, it will revert back to external device control.

Maintenance
Cleaning the screen
1.Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a
soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and a little fabric softener or
dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
2.Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry
before you turn on your Monitor.
Cleaning the cabinet
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
Extended absence
If you leave your Monitor dormant for a long time (such as a
vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug the power cord to protect
against possible damage from lightning or power surges.
- Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of
time you will have your new Monitor. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power
cord before you begin any cleaning.
