Important User Guidance Information
In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this SHARP PZ-50HV2/PZ-43HV2/PZ-MR2M/PZ-MR2X Plasma Display TV, please first read
this information carefully.
With the SHARP PZ-50HV2/PZ-43HV2/PZ-MR2M/PZ-MR2X, you can be assured of a high quality Plasma Display TV with long-life and high
reliability. To achieve images of exceptional quality, this SHARP Plasma Display TV incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction,
as well as very precise and highly advanced technology. On a total of nearly 3 million light cells, more than 99.999 percent of the cells
remain active.
Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the SHARP PZ-50HV2/PZ-43HV2/PZ-MR2M/PZ-MR2X Plasma Display TV will diminish very
slowly, such as with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-type television). To enjoy beautiful and bright images on
your SHARP Plasma Display TV for a long time, please carefully read and follow the usage guidelines below:
Usage guidelines
All phosphor-based screens (including conventional tube-type televisions) can be affected by displaying static images for a prolonged
period. Plasma Display TVs are no exception to this rule. After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be avoided by taking some
basic precautions. By following the recommendations listed below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from your Plasma
Display TV.
• Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying the same image or virtually still moving pictures (e.g. video game images which have
static portions). After playing a game, or displaying a PC image or any still image, it is best to view a normal moving picture in the
“Panorama” or “Full” screen setting for more than 3 times the length of the previous still moving image.
• Do not display Teletext for a prolonged period of time.
• Avoid viewing the On Screen Display for extended periods, from a HDTV tuner, DVD player, VCR and all other components.
• Do not leave the same picture freeze-framed or paused continuously over a long period of time, when using the still picture mode
from a TV, VCR, DVD player or any other component.
• Images which have both very bright areas and very dark areas side by side should not be displayed for a prolonged period of time.
• When displaying a game, the “GAME” mode setting within “AV MODE” is strongly recommended. However, please limit its use to less
than 2 hours at a time.
• After using the Plasma Display TV, make sure to switch the display to “STAND BY” mode or to turn off the power.
Installation guidelines
The SHARP PZ-50HV2/PZ-43HV2/PZ-MR2M/PZ-MR2X Plasma Display TV incorporates a very thin design. To ensure safety, please take
the proper measures to mount or install the Plasma Display, in order to prevent the unit from tipping over in the event of vibration or
accidental movement.
This product should be installed by using only parts and accessories designed by SHARP. Use of accessories other than the SHARP
stand or installation bracket may result in instability, and could cause injury. For custom installation, please consult the dealer where the
unit was purchased. To ensure correct installation, experienced and qualified experts must install the unit. SHARP will not be held responsible
for accident or damage caused by the use of parts and accessories manufactured by other companies.
To avoid malfunction and overheating, make sure that the vents on the main unit are not blocked when installing to ensure proper heat
emission:
• Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc.
• Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is poor.
• Do not cover with a cloth, etc.
• Clean the vents on the sides and rear of the unit to remove dust build-up, by using a vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction setting.
Using the unit without proper ventilation may cause the internal temperature to rise, and could result in possible malfunction. When the
surrounding or internal temperature exceeds a certain degree, the display will automatically power off in order to cool the internal electronics
and prevent hazardous occurrences.
Any malfunction may occur due to: an inappropriate installation site, improper assembly, installation, mounting, or operation of this
product, modifications made to the product. However, SHARP cannot be held responsible for such accidents or malfunction.
A
• Typical effects and characteristics of a phosphor-based matrix display, e.g. permanent residual images upon the phosphor of the
panel, and the existence of a minute number of inactive light cells in the screen, are not covered by local warranties.
About the Plasma Display's protection function
The brightness of this display will deteriorate slightly when an image with little movement such as a photograph or computer image is
continuously displayed. This is caused by the Plasma Display protection function which detects images with slight movement and
automatically adjusts brightness to protect the display, and is not a malfunction.
This function begins operating when the display detects no or little screen movement for a period of about three minutes.
L
Plasma Display sticking and after-image lag
• Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two
cases.
1. After-image lagging due to remaining electrical load
When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed for more than 1 minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the
remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the
after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still images and the time they had been displayed.
2. After-image (lag image) due to burning
Avoid displaying the same image on the Plasma Display continuously over a long period of time. If the same image is displayed
continuously for several hours, or for shorter periods of time over several days, a permanent after-image may remain on the screen due
to burning of the fluorescent materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving images are later displayed, but they will not
disappear completely.
• The Energy save function can be set to help prevent damage from screen burning. (See page 44 and 45.)
