FCC NOTICE

• MU-60PZ12M/MA/MB/MK/MS, MU-60PZ12V/VA/VB/VK/VS : A Class B digital device

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equipment into 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.

The explanation about colored dots may be present on PDP screen

The PDP which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells and a few cell defects can occur in the manufacture of the PDP. Several colored dots visible on the screen would be acceptable, in line with other PDP manufacturers and would not mean that the PDP is faulty. We hope you will understand that the product which corresponds to this standard is regarded as acceptable. It means that it could not be changed or refunded. We promise that we'll do our best to develop our technology to minimize the cell defects.

The explanation about noise of 60" PDP

In the same way that a fan is used in a PC to keep the CPU cool, the PDP is equipped with cooling fans to improve the reliability of this product. Therefore, a certain level of noise could occur when the fan is operated. This noise doesn't have any negative effect on its efficiency and liability and it's also determined to have no difficulty while using this product. The noise from the fans is normal in the operation of this product. We hope you will understand that a certain level of noise is acceptable. It means that it is not changeable nor refundable.

Earth wire should be connected.

- If the earth 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 to telephone wires, lightning rods or gas pipe.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

supporting structure, grounding of the leadin wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Example of Grounding According to National Electrical Code Instructions

12. Power-Cord Polarization

This product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

13. Power-Cord Protection

Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code (U.S.A.), ANSI/ NFPA 70 provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and

NEC - National Electrical Code

15. Lightning

For added protection for this product (receiver) during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

16. Power Lines

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

Monitor Installation

Tip

- It is recommended that this product only be used at an altitude of less than 6562 feet (2000m) to get the best quality picture and sound.

- Your monitor can be installed on a wall as shown below. Wall mount is optional, and is not supplied with the monitor.

- This plasma display is designed to be mounted horizontally or vertically.

Wall Mount: Horizontal Installation

• The monitor can be installed on the wall as shown above. (For further information, refer to the optional ‘Wall Mounting Bracket Installation and Setup Guide’.)

• Speakers are optional, and shown for illustration only.

• Install this monitor only in a location where adequate ventilation is available.

Tips

OUT

(R) AUDIO (L) VIDEO

- As shown below, when connecting the Monitor to a VCR, match the colors of AV input jacks on the Monitor with the output jacks on the VCR: Video = yellow, Audio (Left) = white, Audio (Right) = red.

- If you have a mono VCR, connect the audio cable from the VCR to the AUDIO(L/MONO) input of the Plasma Monitor.

- If you connect an S-VIDEO VCR to the S-VIDEO input, the picture quality is improved, compared to connecting a regular VCR to the Video input.

- Avoid having a fixed image remain on the screen for a long period of time. A frozen still picture from a VCR (or if a CH label is displayed) displayed on the screen for prolonged periods will result in an image ghost remaining even when you change the image. Avoid prolonged display of a still image.

< Back panel of VCR >

• To avoid picture noise (interference), leave an adequate distance (20 inches or more) between the VCR and monitor.
