WARNING

CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :
Most appliances recommend they be placed
upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet
circuit which powers only that appliance and
has no additional outlets or branch circuits.
Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain.

Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates
damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue
use of the appliance, and have the cord
replaced with an exact replacement part by
an authorized servicer. Protect the power cord
from physical or mechanical abuse, such as
being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a
door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention
to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where
the cord exits the appliance.

Outdoor Use Marking :
WARNING - To Reduce The Risk Of Fire Or

Electric Shock, Do Not Expose This Appliance
To Rain Or Moisture

Wet Location Marking : Apparatus shall not
be exposed to dripping or splashing and no
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall

FEATURES OF THIS TV

What is a Plasma TV ?

Using plasma is the best way to achieve flat 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?

Plasma TV 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 sub­pixel 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.

Plasma TV offers a rich, dynamic display because
each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced
electronics to produce over 16 million different colors.
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 flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally
broad viewing angle of over 160 degrees. This
means that the display is clear and visible to viewers
anywhere 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 Internet browsing. The
Picture-in-Picture feature allows you to view your PC
and video images simultaneously.

Versatile

The light weight and thin size makes it easy to
install your plasma display in a variety of locations
where conventional TVs do not fit.

The Plasma TV Manufacturing Process: a few
minute colored dots may be present on the
Plasma TV screen

The Plasma TV is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million
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
manufacturers' 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
production technology minimizes these cell defects
during the manufacture and operation of this product.

FOR LCD TV

If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a
small “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 monitor's
performance.

Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your finger(s)
against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce
some temporary distortion effects on the screen.

ATTACHING THE TV TO A WALL

Plasma TV Model LCD TV Model

■

Set it up close to the wall so the set doesn’t fall over when it is pushed backwards.

■

The instructions shown below is a safer way to set up the set, which is to fix it on the wall so the set doesn’t
fall over when it is pulled in the forward direction. It will prevent the set from falling for-ward and hurting
people. It will also prevent the set from damage caused by fall. Please make sure that children don’t climb
on or hang from the set.

Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the set, must purchase separately) to tie the set. It is safer to tie
the rope so it becomes horizontal between the wall and the set.

Use the eye-bolts or set brackets/bolts to fix the set to the wall as shown in the picture.
(If your set has the bolts in the eye-bolts position before inserting the eye-bolts, loosen the bolts.)
* Insert the eye-bolts or set brackets/bolts and tighten them securely in the upper holes.

Secure the wall brackets with the bolts (not provided as parts of the set, must purchase separately) on the
wall. Match the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall.

NOTE

!

GG

When moving the set to another place undo the ropes first.

GG

Use a set holder or a cabinet that is big and strong enough for the size and weight of the set.

GG

To use the set safely make sure that the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall is same as that
of the set.
