User Instructions

Screen Image retention

Do not display a still image (such as on a video game or when hooking up a PC to this PDP) on the plasma monitor panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.

Cell Defect

The plasma display panel consistes of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than 99.9 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.

Height

The PDP can normally operate only under 2000m in height. It might abnormally function at a place over 2000m in height and do not install and operate there.

Warranty

- Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention. - Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
