Burn-in
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long time causes a part of the image to stay
on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).
In order to prevent this burn-in, avoid displaying the same image for long periods of time or using the TV in the regular mode as much
as possible.
If burn-in occurs, display moving images such as video software. If the burn-in is not too bad, it may gradually become less noticeable.
However, once burn-in has occurred, it will never totally disappear. If still images are frequently displayed, it is recommended that
the brightness be reduced, the screen be scrolled or the display position be changed, or the TV be used in full mode.
Point defects
PDPs use collections of fine pixels to display images. While there is no problem with more than 99.99% of these pixels, please
understand that a very small number of pixels may not light or may light all the time.
Effect on infrared devices
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.
Note
The remote controller supplied with this unit is a Class 1 LED product.
The surface of the TV screen is easily damaged. Be very careful with it when handling the TV.
Should the TV screen become soiled, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Never rub it forcefully.
Never use any cleaner or detergent on it.
If there is a fault, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it yourself or remove the rear cover.
