Maintenance
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water in which
neutral detergent has been diluted 100 times, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type until the surface
is dry.
• Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fi ngernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may become
damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise
the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added
and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
• Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma Display. If water droplets get
inside the unit, operating problems may result.
• Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the cabinet
