User Manual BDS4223V

1.1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and keep these instructions.
Heed all warnings.
Follow all instructions.
Do not use this apparatus near water.
Disconnect from the electric outlet before cleaning. Do not use
liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a slightly damp cloth.
Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance
with the manufacturers instructions.
Do not install in direct sunlight, near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding type
plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
Do not remove cover, to prevent electric shock. Refer servicing to
qualified service personel only.
Unauthorized modification of this equipment or usage of an
unshielded connecting cable may cause excessive interference.
Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls can result in damage which often requires extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to normal operation.
Use in well-ventilated area and do not block any of the ventilation
openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
The unit must be operated from the type of power source indicated
on the label. If the type of available power is unknown, consult your dealer or local power company.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician. Do not alter the plug; this will defeat the safety feature.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result
in a risk of fire or electric shock.
If the picture displayed looks abnormal, turn off the unit and
disconnect it from the electric outlet. Verify your signal wire connections and reconnect the display to the electric outlet.

9. CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING

9.1 CLEANING

Cautions When Using the Plasma Display
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation
holes of the plasma display. Top of plasma display is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries may occur if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the display could also result in heat related damages to the object as well as the display itself.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the plasma display.
Moving the display with its cables attached may damage the cables and thus case fire or electric shock danger.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety
precaution before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance procedure.
Front Panel Cleaning Instructions
The front of the display has been specially treated. Wipe the surface
gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
If the surface is particular dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild
detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe the surface of the display to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the same type to dry.
Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingers or hard
objects of any kind.
Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and
thinners.
User Manual BDS4223V
Cabinet Cleaning Instructions
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.
If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a lint-free cloth in a mild
detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove as much moisture possible. Wipe the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until the surface is dry.
Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the
surface of the display. If water or moisture gets inside the unit, operating problems, electrical and shock hazards may result.
Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with fingers or hard objects of any
kind.
Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and
thinners on the cabinet.
Do not place anything made from rubber or PVC near the cabinet
for any extended periods of time.
