•

Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it becoming dusty.

If dust built up on the power cord plug, the resultant humidity can damage the insulation, which could result in

•
fire. Pull the power cord plug out from the wall outlet and wipe the mains lead with a dry cloth.

Do not burn or breakup batteries.

Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.

•

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 reflected light from your Plasma Display.

Cleaning and 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 fingernails 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.

Image retention appears

Whirring sounds can be heard
from the display unit.

The screen will darken slightly when photos, still images of a computer or other pictures with minimal
movements are shown for an extended period. This is done to reduce image retention on the screen and
the shortening of the screen’s service life: It is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.

The unit digitally processes the various signals in order to reproduce esthetically pleasing images. As
such, it sometimes takes a few moments for the picture to appear when the power has been turned on,

When viewing the side panels at the “High” or “Mid” setting, the brightness on both sides may change

depending on the kind of program shown: This is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.
The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology,

however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots.
This is not a malfunction.

Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent image
retention to remain on the Plasma Display.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in
4:3 mode.

Note:

The permanent image retention on the Plasma Display resulting from fixed image use is not an operating
defect and as such is not covered by the Warranty.
This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.

The display unit is fitted with a cooling fan to dissipate heat generated during normal use. The whirring
sound is caused by rotation of the fan and is not a malfunction.
