Small parts can present choking hazard if accidentally swallowed. Keep small parts away from young children. Discard
unneeded small parts and other objects, including packaging materials and plastic bags/sheets to prevent them from being
played with by young children, creating the potential risk of suffocation.

When using the Plasma Display

Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the
ventilation holes of the Plasma Display.

• Top of the Plasma Display is usually very hot due to the
high temperature of exhaust air being released through
the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can
happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing
any object near the top of the display could also result in
heat damages to the object as well as to the Display if its
ventilation holes are blocked.

Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the
Plasma Display.

• Moving the Display with its cables attached might

damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fi re or
electric shock.

Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a
safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.

• Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from
becoming dusty.

• Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase
humidity which might damage the insulation and cause
fi re. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it
with a dry cloth.

This Plasma Display radiates infrared rays, therefore it
may affect other infrared communication equipment.
Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct
or refl ected light from your Plasma Display.

Note:

Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended
period, as this can cause a permanent after-image to remain
on the Plasma Display.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games,
computer images, teletext and images displayed in
NORMAL mode.

space of 3
and right, and 2

15/16” (10 cm) or more at the top, bottom, left

3/4” (7 cm) or more at the rear.

3/4” (7 cm) or more at

AC Power Supply Cord

The Plasma Display is designed to operate on 120 V
AC, 50/60 Hz.

Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will
go.

• If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated
which could cause fi re. If the plug is damaged or the
wall socket plate is loose, they should not be used.

Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.

• Doing so may cause electric shocks.

Do not do anything that might damage the power cable.
When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug,
not the cable.

• Do not make any modifi cations, place heavy objects on,
place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully
pull the power cable. Doing so may cause damage to
the power cable which can cause fi re or electric shock.
If damage to the cable is suspected, have it repaired at
an Authorized Service Center.

If the Plasma Display will not be used for a long period
of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

If problems occur during use

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound),
or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the
Plasma Display, unplug the power cord immediately.

• Continuous use of the Display under these conditions
might cause fi re or permanent damage to the unit.
Have the Display evaluated at an Authorized Service
Center. Services to the Display by any unauthorized
personnel are strongly discouraged due to its high
voltage dangerous nature.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma Display,
if the Plasma Display is dropped, or if the cabinet
becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug
immediately.

• A short may occur, which could cause fi re. Contact an
Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be
made.

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 to which
a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, 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
surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods in contact
with articles made from rubber or PVC.
