FEATURESOF THIS TV
What is a Plasma TV ?
Using plasma is the best way to achieve nat panel
displays with excellent image quality and large screen
sizes that are easily viewable_ The Plasma TV can be
thought of as a descendant of the neon lamp and or
a series of fluorescent lamps.
How does it work?
PlasmaTV is an array of cells, known as pixels, which
are comprised of three sub-pixels, corresponding to
the colors red, green, and blue. Gas in a plasma state
is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixel to
produce colored light (red, green, or blue). These
phosphors are the same types used in Cathode Ray
Tube (CRT) devices such as televisions and common
computer monitors.
PlasmaTV offers a rich, dynamic display because
each sub_pixel is individually controlled by advanced
electronics to produce over 16 million different cob
ors. This means that you get perfect images that are
easily viewable in a display that is fewer than five
inches thick_
160 - Wide angle range of vision
Your fiat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally
broad viewing angle of over 160 degrees. This means
that the display is clear and visible to viewers any-
where in the room,
Wide Screen
The wide screen offers a theater-like experience in
your own home.
Multimedia
Connect your plasma display to a PC and use it for
conferencing, games, and [nternet browsing. The
Picture-in-Picture feature allows you to view your PC
and video images simultaneously.
cells. A few cell defects will normally occur in the
Plasma TV manufacturing process. Several tiny,
minute colored dots visible on the screen should be
acceptable. This also occurs in other Plasma TV
manufacture_' products. The tiny dots appearing
does not mean that this Plasma TV is defective. Thus
a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the
Plasma TV to be exchanged or returned. Our pro-
duction technology minimizes these cell defects dur-
ing the manufacture and operation of this product.
Cooling Fan Noise
In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer
to keep the CPU (Cent_l Processing Unit) cool, the
Plasma TV is equipped with cooling fans to cool the
Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a cer-
tain level of noise could occur while the fans are
operating and cooling the Plasma TV.
The fan noise doesn't have any negative effect on
the Plasma TV'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 Plasma TV to be
exchanged or returned.
FOR LCD TV
If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a
smaff "flicker" when it is turned on. This is normal,
there is nothing wrong with TV.
Some minute dot defects may be visible on the
screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue spots.
However, they have no adverse effect on the monio
torts performance.
Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your fin-
ger(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so
may produce some temporary distortion effects on
the screen.
