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).  
Avoid burn-in as follows.  
Use the PICTURE SHIFT function. To prevent burn-in, the picture displayed on the  
screen is shifted up, down and to the left and right at regular intervals. See page 40  
for details.  
• Even if the PICTURE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture may shift to the left or right when  
the channel or input is changed.  
The PICTURE MODE function is initially set to BRIGHT. Unless the TV is being  
watched in an extremely bright room, we recommend you change the PICTURE  
MODE setting to either STANDARD or SOFT. Doing so will reduce the chance of  
burn-in and extend the life of the PDP. See “PICTURE MODE” on page 26.  
Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.  
While an image is displayed  
With power OFF  
19:03  
19:03  
Burn-in example  
• Reduce CONTRAST and BRIGHT on the PICTURE menu (page 26) when viewing.  
Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 15).  
Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen. After  
viewing in the REGULAR mode in which black bands may occur at the left and right of the screen,  
it is recommended to change to the PANORAMIC mode to display the picture on the entire screen.  
While an image is displayed  
With power OFF  
Burn-in example  
Do not view for long periods of time using the MULTI-PICTURE function (page 17).  
If Burn-in has occurred  
If burn-in occurs, try the REFRESH function (page 34). If burn-in is minimal it may gradually become  
less noticeable.  
Note: Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

Pixel defects  
PDPs use collections of fine dots (“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.  
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to  
electromagnetic waves  
It may cause interference in images, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from this  
product.  
Effect on infrared devices  
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.  
Failure to take the following precautions may result in damage to the TV or  
remote control.  
DO NOT block the TV’s ventilation openings or holes.  
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be  
able to get out.)  
DO NOT place anything on top of the TV.  
(such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)  
DO NOT allow objects or liquid into the cabinet openings.  
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)  
DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the TV.  
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 hard.  
Never use any cleaner or detergent on it.  
In the event of a fault, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it  
yourself or remove the rear cover.

edges from high-contrast and crisp images.  
For images with low-contrast, edges are  
added to produce a sharper, more detailed  
picture.  
You can choose from the three DigiPure  
function settings of AUTO, MIN and MAX.

AUTO(LOW)/AUTO(HIGH):  
The TV will automatically adjust the level of  
the DIGITAL VNR effect to match the  
amount of noise in the picture, giving you the  
best possible picture.  
• If you set the DIGITAL VNR effect too  
high it can make the picture less sharp. It is  
recommended you use the AUTO(LOW)  
setting if you can. If you set the DIGITAL  
VNR function to AUTO(LOW) but still  
notice some noise, change the setting from  
AUTO(LOW) to AUTO(HIGH).

Troubleshooting  
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully  
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,  
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may  
think there is a problem with the TV itself.  
Important:  
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you  
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,  
not this troubleshooting guide.  
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains  
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to  
remove the rear cover of the TV.  
– Have the TV and aerial been connected  
properly?  
– Has the aerial cable been damaged?  
– Is the aerial pointing in the right  
direction?  
If you cannot turn on the TV  
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains  
outlet?  
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the A  
button on the TV.  
– Is the aerial itself faulty?  
• Make sure you set the PIP/TV/DVD  
switch to the TV position. You cannot  
turn the TV on when the PIP/TV/DVD  
switch is set to the DVD position.  
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference  
from other equipment, stripes or noise  
may appear in the picture. Move any  
equipment such as an amplifier, personal  
interference away from your TV. Or try  
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers  
interference from a radio tower or high-  
voltage wire, please contact your local  
dealer.  
• If the TV suffers interference from signals  
reflecting from mountains or buildings,  
double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try  
to change the aerial’s direction or replace  
it with one with better directionality.  
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings  
correct? Follow the description  
If you cannot turn off the TV  
• Make sure you set the PIP/TV/DVD  
switch to the TV position. You cannot  
turn the TV off when the PIP/TV/DVD  
switch is set to the DVD position.  
No picture or no sound  
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very  
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK  
function will be activated: the entire  
screen becomes blue, and the sound is  
muted. If you still want to view the TV  
channel, follow the description “BLUE  
BACK” on page 34 to change the BLUE  
BACK function setting to OFF.  
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 28 to try  
to solve the trouble.  
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings  
been adjusted properly? Follow the  
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR”  
on page 26 to try to adjust them properly.  
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended  
because it may not record correctly.  
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel  
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound  
from being issued. Follow the description  
“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 35 to use the  
MANUAL function to try to change the  
SYSTEM setting.  
Poor picture  
• If noise (snow) totally blocks out the  
picture, there may be a problem with the  
aerial or aerial cable. Check the following  
to try to solve the problem:  
47  
 
Troubleshooting  
• When viewing images from commercially  
available video software products, or  
videos from videotapes which have been  
recorded improperly, the top of the image  
may be distorted. This is due to the  
condition of the video signal. There is  
nothing wrong with the TV.  
• Since this TV is designed to make full use  
of the resolution of the original video  
source, the motion may appear unnatural  
when the video source is input with 625p  
progressive-scanning component signals.  
If this occurs, change the output setting of  
scanning component signal output. See  
the instructions that came with the device  
for more information.  
• If the TV suddenly stops responding,  
press the A button on the TV and turn off  
the TV. Press the A button again to turn  
on the TV. If the TV returns to a normal  
state, it is not a failure.  
Other issues  
• If the CHILD LOCK function set to ON,  
you cannot operate the TV with the front  
control buttons of the TV. Set the CHILD  
LOCK function to OFF.  
• When the SLEEP TIMER function or  
AUTO SHUTOFF function operates, the  
TV is automatically turned off. If the TV  
suddenly turns off, try to press the #  
(standby) button to turn on the TV once  
again. If the TV goes back to normal,  
there is no problem.  
Poor sound  
• When the TV is receiving a wide-screen  
signal (WSS) or a signal from an external  
device affecting the screen size, the  
ZOOM mode automatically changes.  
When you want to resume the previous  
ZOOM mode, press the c button  
again.  
• If you bring magnetised equipment such  
may be warped or unnatural colours may  
appear at the corners of the screen. In this  
case, keep the equipment away from your  
TV. If speakers cause this to happen, use  
magnetically-shielded speakers instead.  
• It takes a short period of time from the  
time an operation such as changing  
channels is performed until an image is  
displayed. This is not a fault. This is the  
time needed for the image to stabilize  
before it can be displayed.  
properly? If not, follow the description  
“BASS” or “TREBLE” on page 30.  
• When TV channel reception is poor, it can  
be hard to hear stereo or bilingual sound.  
In this case, follow the description  
“STEREO / I • II” on page 30 to hear the  
sound more easily by changing it to a  
mono sound.  
if the picture of the TV channel appears  
normally. Follow the description “EDIT/  
MANUAL” on page 35 to use the  
MANUAL function to change the  
SYSTEM setting.  
If the TV does not respond to the  
remote control  
• Have the batteries of the remote control  
worn out? Follow the description “Putting  
the batteries into the remote control” on  
page 9 and replace them with new batteries.  
• Have you attempted to use the remote  
control from the sides or rear of the TV or  
from more than seven metres away from the  
TV? Use the remote control in front of your  
TV or from less than seven metres away.  
• When you are viewing a teletext  
• The TV may make a crackling sound due  
to a sudden change in temperature. The  
picture or sound may be normal. If you  
hear crackling sounds frequently while  
you are viewing the TV, there may be  
other causes. As a precaution, ask your  
service technician to inspect it.  
• Touching the screen may cause you to  
feel a slight electric shock due to its static  
electricity. This is unavoidable due to the  
construction of the picture tube. It is not a  
problem with the TV. You can rest  
assured that this static discharge is not  
harmful.
