compatibility with future DVB-T digital terrestrial and DVB-C digital cable broadcasts cannot be
guaranteed.

Correct disposal of batteries in this product
(
Applicable in the European Union and other European countries with separate battery return systems)
This marking on the battery, manual or packaging indicates that the batteries in this product should
not be disposed of with other household waste at the end of their working life. Where marked, the
chemical symbols Hg, Cd or Pb indicate that the battery contains mercury, cadmium or lead above the
reference levels in EC Directive 2006/66. If batteries are not properly disposed of, these substances

Do not display a still image (such as on a video game) on the plasma display panel for more than
several minutes 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 the screen when
displaying a still image.
• Heat on the top of the Plasma TV
The top side of the product may be hot after long periods of use as heat dissipates from the panel
through the vent hole in the upper part of the product.
This is normal and does not indicate any defect or operation failure of the product.
However, children should be prevented from touching the upper part of the product.
• The product is making a “cracking” noise.
A “cracking” noise may occur when the product contracts or expands due to a change in the
surrounding environment such as temperature or humidity. This is normal and not a defect of the unit.
• Cell Defects
The PDP uses a panel consisting of 2,360,000(HD-level) to 6,221,000(FHD-level) pixels which require
sophisticated technology to produce. However, there may be a few bright or dark pixels on the screen.
These pixels will have no impact on the performance of the product.
• Avoid operating the TV at temperatures below 41°F (5°C)
• A still image displayed too long may cause permanent damage to the PDP Panel.
Watching the Plasma TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders
displayed on the left, right and centre of the screen caused by the difference of light
emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause similar effects to the
screen.
Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.
• After-images on the Screen.
Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial
after-images.
To prevent this effect, reduce the “brightness” and “contrast” when displaying still images for a long
time.
• Warranty
Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
• Caution
The glass screen of your PDP TV can break if you accidently drop the TV. Handle the TV
with care.
When moving the TV, always have two or more people pick it up and carry it as a safety
precaution. Do not lay the TV flat on its face or back.
