- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRO-

DUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

NOTE TO CABLE/TV INSTALLER

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electric Code (U.S.A.).

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 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.

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

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.

to 2.2 million

Cooling Fan Noise (This feature is not available for all models.)

In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the Plasma TV 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 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.

NOTE

DVR (Digital Video Recorder): A device which records and plays broadcast program contents onto a hard disk in TV or SET TOP BOX.

If available hard-disk space is low when Timeshift is initiated, the oldest information is deleted.

In order to save hard-disk space, nothing is saved when there is no signal.

The total storage space of the hard-disk is 160 GB. 10GB minimum is reserved for Timeshift.

When turning power on, it may take up to 3 mi-

nutes to initialize the HDD.

The Timeshift function will not initiate for a copyprotected program.

Because an analog broadcast is transferred to a digital signal, video that contains rapid movement may show "cross stripes". This happens when the analog signal is compressed and then restored in the digital signal. The unit will attempt to reduce this excessive picture noise.

When using the PIP/POP mode, Timeshift is stopped.

Timeshift is available in AV1, AV2, Antenna, Cable mode.
