Safety Instructions

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged

in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into

the apparatus, the apparatus has exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15. CAUTION concerning the Power Cord :

Introduction

What is a Plasma Display Panel (PDP)?

A plasma display panel is the latest display technology and the best way to achieve flat panel displays with excellent image quality and large screen sizes that are easily viewable. The PDP can be thought of as a descendant of the neon lamp and it can be also be viewed as a series of fluorescent lamps.

How does it work?

PDP is an array of cells, known as pixels, which are comprised of 3 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.

You get the rich, dynamic colors that you expect. Each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced electronics to produce over 16 million different colors. All of these mean that you get perfect images that are easily viewable in a display that is less than 5 inches thick.

160° - Wide angle range of vision

Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally broad viewing angle -- over 160 degrees. This means that the display is clear and visible to viewers anywhere in the room who can see the screen.

Wide Screen

The screen of the Plasma Display is so wide that your viewing experience is as if you are in a theater.

Multimedia

Connect your plasma display to a PC and you can 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 will not fit.

The PDP Manufacturing Process: a few minute 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. A few cell defects will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. Several tiny, minute colored dots visible on the screen should be acceptable. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products. The tiny 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 minimizes these cell defects during 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 (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. The fan 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.
