3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
9) 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 the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult
an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and
the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
15) Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such a vases,
shall be placed on the apparatus.
16) An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light
or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with
them might be fatal.
17) Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18) Do not push objects through any openings in this unit, as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short
out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type of liquid into the unit.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
19) If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the antenna or cable system is
grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges, Section 810 of
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning instructions for your Plasma TV.
Safety note:
Before you begin to clean, turn the unit power off, and disconnect from the power source.
Be careful not to scratch the plastic coated front panel - it is highly vulnerable to accidental scratching (e.g. by
fingernails or other sharp items).
While cleaning, do not wear jewelry that could cause surface scratching (such as rings, wrist-watch, etc.).
Use a moist lint-free cloth and pure water to clean the Plasma TV, assure the cloth is only damp and not wet - and
that the cloth is free from any dirt particles that could cause scratches to the surface.
Wipe the set clean using minimal pressure.
DO NOT USE STANDARD WINDOW CLEANER! ITS ALCOHOL / AMMONIA WILL DISSOLVE THE FRONT
WINDOW'S COATING!! NEVER USE SOLVENT OR THINNER. NEVER USE SPECIAL CLEANERS WHICH
ARE DESIGNED FOR CLEANING PC MONITORS OR CRT TV’S.
Carefully dry with a clean dry lint-free cloth.
Do not use paper towels or tissues to clean the set - paper can disintegrate when wet or may leave a trail of dust
behind. Some paper is abrasive and may scratch your screen.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The unit emits heat when in operation. Do not place any covers or blankets on the unit, this may cause
overheating. Do not block ventilation holes, or set up near radiators. Do not place in direct sunshine. When
placing on a shelf leave 10 cm (4 inches) free space around the entire unit.

Notes when mounting the Plasma TV on a wall
•
When installing the unit on a wall, allow at least 6 cm (2 1/2 inches) clearance between the rear of the Plasma
TV and the wall. Clearance of less than 6 cm (2 1/2 inches) will obstruct the vents and may cause the interior of
the unit to overheat, resulting in damage to the unit.
•
If the unit is to be mounted on the wall, contact the retailer where you purchased the Plasma TV for advice, and
have the equipment professionally installed. Incomplete or improper installation may cause injury to you and/or
the Plasma TV.
•
Bracket holes: To attach a wall mounting bracket (not supplied) here, remove the screws.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
Possible Adverse Effects on Plasma Screen: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the plasma screen
for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the plasma TV panel and cause subtle
but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your
plasma TV on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:
Fixed Images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.
•
Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on
•
a normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a
widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right sides of screen).
To avoid the engraining, we recommend that you use the screen saver function (see page 41).
The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction but technical limitation. Therefore we disclaim
any responsibility for these symptoms.
Plasma TV panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however
•
sometimes parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a sign
of a malfunction.
Do not install the Plasma TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to electromagnetic waves. Some
•
equipment placed too near this unit may cause interference.
Effect on infrared devices – There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared
•
cordless headphones.

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV
Converter box. Some cable companies offer “premium pay channels” where the signal is scrambled.

Reception disturbances
Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the
VHF/UHF antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of
television interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the TV is connected to
a Cable TV system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.
IGNITION
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or
drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,
neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair
dryers.
GHOSTS
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is
the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other
large objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve the reception.
SNOW
If the TV is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area
where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.
If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external
antenna may be necessary.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)
Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving
ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a loss
of contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of the
antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION
A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST
or BRIGHTNESS settings.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the TV from the power source before cleaning.
The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.
Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.
