UNDERSTANDING WIDESCREEN MODES  
This monitor is capable of displaying a widescreen image on the native  
16:9 aspect ratio screen. However, not all available video content fits  
perfectly in a widescreen (16:9) format resulting in unused screen space.  
This monitor is capable of displaying images in various formats that are  
suitable for various types of content depending on its size.  
6.6.1 4:3 (SQUARE) CONTENT  
Content from traditional TV, VCR, and some DVD's are formatted using  
a "square" 4:3 format. When viewing content in this "Square" format the  
following viewing modes are suitable.  
4:3 (NORMAL)  
In 4:3 mode, the original 4:3 image is preserved but black bars are used  
to fill the the extra space on the left and right.  
16:9 (FULL)  
The original 4:3 image is proportionally stretched to fill the entire  
screen. This is the default setting from factory.  
PANORAMA  
The original 4:3 image is expanded in both the horizontal and vertical  
directions. The center of the picture is almost normal while the edges  
are considerably expanded.  
6.6.2 WIDESCREEN CONTENT  
Depending on the content displayed on this 16:9 monitor, you may  
notice smaller black bars on top or bottom of the screen. Use the  
following zoom modes to elimate black bars.  
ZOOM1:  
Zoom 1 is set to stretch 2.35:1 content to full screen. This Zoom mode  
can also be used with images displayed in 2.0:1 aspect ratio.  
ZOOM2:  
Zoom 2 shifts the image up to faciliate the display of sub-titles.

9. CLEANING AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
9.1  
CLEANING  
Cautions When Using the Plasma Display  
■
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation  
holes of the plasma display. Top of plasma display is usually very hot  
due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through  
the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries may occur if any  
body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of  
the display could also result in heat related damages to the object as  
well as the display itself.  
■
■
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the plasma display.  
Moving the display with its cables attached may damage the cables  
and thus case fire or electric shock danger.  
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety  
precaution before carrying out any type of cleaning or maintenance  
procedure.  
Front Panel Cleaning Instructions  
■
The front of the display has been specially treated. Wipe the surface  
gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.  
■
If the surface is particular dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a mild  
detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Wipe  
the surface of the display to remove dirt. Then use a dry cloth of the  
same type to dry.  
■
■
Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingers or hard  
objects of any kind.  
Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and  
thinners.  
Cabinet Cleaning Instructions  
■
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry cloth.  
■
If the cabinet is extremely dirty, soak a lint-free cloth in a mild  
detergent solution. Wring the cloth to remove as much moisture  
possible. Wipe the cabinet. Use another dry cloth to wipe over until  
the surface is dry.  
■
Do not allow any water or detergent to come into contact with the  
surface of the display. If water or moisture gets inside the unit,  
operating problems, electrical and shock hazards may result.  
■
■
■
Do not scratch or hit the cabinet with fingers or hard objects of any  
kind.  
Do not use volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and  
thinners on the cabinet.
