THREE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
For Plasma Displays
Congratulations on your purchase of a Runco video product and welcome to the Runco family! We believe Runco produces
“The World’s Finest Home Theater Products.” With proper installation, setup and care, you should enjoy many years of
unparalleled video performance.
This is a LIMITED WARRANTY as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Please read it carefully and retain it with your
other important documents.
WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
SERVICE LABOR: Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of a
manufacturing defect for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the end user (excluding the plasma
glass panel).
PARTS (not including plasma glass panel): Runco will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to
defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the end user. Such
replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.
PLASMA GLASS PANEL: Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco Authorized Service Center when needed as a result of a
manufacturing defect for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the end user. In addition, Runco will
provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of one (1)
year from the effective date of delivery to the end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the
remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty period.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
Image burn-in on plasma display panels is specifically excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty. Image burn-in is
the result of misuse of the product and therefore cannot be repaired under the terms of this Limited Warranty.
Normal viewing material such as television/satellite broadcasts, videotape or DVDs (not put into pause for extended periods of
time) will not cause damage to your display under normal conditions. Many DVD players are also equipped with screen savers
for this reason.
TO AVOID IMAGE RETENTION (Burn-in): Please ensure that still images are left on your plasma display panel for no more
than a few minutes. Also ensure that images displayed in the 4:3 aspect ratio mode (black or gray stripes, but no picture
information is present on the left and right edges of the screen) are used as infrequently as possible. This will prevent
permanent image burns on your plasma display panel, which can be seen permanently under certain conditions once burn-in
has occurred.
The types of images to avoid include video games, still images and computer screens with stationary tool bars and icons. (This
is why computers are equipped with screen savers – to prevent still images from burning into the monitor’s phosphors after
being displayed continuously for an extended period of time).
This Limited Warranty only covers failure due to defects in materials and workmanship that occur during normal use and does
not cover normal maintenance. This Limited Warranty does not cover cabinets or any appearance items; failure resulting from
accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, mishandling, misapplication, faulty or improper installation or setup adjustments; improper
maintenance, alteration, improper use of any input signal; damage due to lightning or power line surges, spikes and
brownouts; damage that occurs during shipping or transit; or damage that is attributed to acts of God. In the case of remote
control units, damage resulting from leaking, old, damaged or improper batteries is also excluded from coverage under this
Limited Warranty.

CAUTION: THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ONLY COVERS RUNCO PRODUCTS PURCHASED FROM RUNCO AUTHORIZED
DEALERS. ALL OTHER PRODUCTS ARE SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE UNDER THIS WARRANTY.
MOREOVER, DAMAGE RESULTING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR SETUP IS
SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED FROM COVERAGE UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT INSTALLATION

THIS WARRANTY. THIS WILL ALSO ENSURE THAT YOU ENJOY THE FINE PERFORMANCE OF WHICH YOUR RUNCO
PRODUCT IS CAPABLE WHEN INSTALLED AND CALIBRATED BY RUNCO AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL.
RIGHTS, LIMITS AND EXCLUSIONS:
Runco limits its obligations under any implied warranties under state laws to a period not to exceed the warranty period. There
are no express warranties. Runco also excludes any obligation on its part for incidental or consequential damages related to
the failure of this product to function properly. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, and
some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. So the above limitations or
exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from
state to state.
EFFECTIVE WARRANTY DATE:
This warranty begins on the effective date of delivery to the end user. For your convenience, keep the original bill of sale as
evidence of the purchase date.
IMPORTANT -- WARRANTY REGISTRATION:
Please fill out and mail your warranty registration card. It is imperative that Runco knows how to reach you promptly if we

CONTACT A RUNCO AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER TO OBTAIN SERVICE:
Repairs made under the terms of this Limited Warranty covering your Runco video product will be performed at the location of
the product, during usual working hours, providing location of product is within normal operating distance from a Runco
Authorized Service Center. In some instances it may be necessary for the product to be returned to the Runco factory for
repairs. If, solely in Runco’s judgment, location of product to be repaired is beyond normal operating distance of the closest
Runco Authorized Service Center, or the repair requires the unit be returned to the Runco factory, it is the owner’s
responsibility to arrange for shipment of the product for repair. These arrangements must be made through the selling Runco
Dealer. If this is not possible, contact Runco directly for a Return Authorization number and shipping instructions. Runco will
return product transportation prepaid in the United States, unless no product defect is discovered. In that instance, shipping

• Do not drop the remote control or expose it to moisture or high temperature.
• The remote control may malfunction under a fluorescent lamp. If that occurs, move the
plasma display away from the fluorescent lamp.
• Make sure that there is nothing obstructing the infrared beam between the remote
control and the IR receiver on the plasma display.
The signal from the remote control can be reflected by walls or
other surfaces.
Note
• If the effective range of the remote control decreases, or it stops working, replace the
batteries with new ones.
• Ambient conditions may possibly impede the operation of the remote control. If this
happens, point the remote control at the plasma display and repeat the operation.

Proper installation of your CinemaWall will ensure the highest possible picture quality.
Whether you are installing the CinemaWall temporarily or permanently, you should take
the following into account to ensure that it performs optimally.
3.3
Installation
Considerations
Mounting the CinemaWall
on a Wall or Table Stand
To install the CinemaWall, you will need either an optional table stand or wall-mounting kit.
The CinemaWall cannot be installed on its own.
➤
If you do decide to wall-mount the CinemaWall, ensure that the wall-mount bracket is
installed according to the instructions included with it. The wall must be capable of
supporting a redundant weight factor three (3) times the weight of the display, or be
reinforced.
Runco recommends that this be done by a custom installation specialist.
Use only a Runco-approved wall-mount kit or table stand that is
specifically designed for your display.
Note
You can attach your optional mounts or stand to the CinemaWall in either of two ways:
• While it is upright.
• As it lies flat with the screen face
down. Place the protective sheet,
which was wrapped around the
plasma monitor when it was
packaged, between the screen and
your work surface to avoid
scratching or otherwise damaging
the screen surface.
Ambient Light
In general, minimize or eliminate light sources directed at the display. Contrast ratio in your
images will be noticeably reduced if light directly strikes the display, such as when a shaft
of light from a window or floodlight falls on the image. Images may then appear washed
out and less vibrant.

Other considerations and tips that can help improve your installation, avoid damage and
prolong operating life:
Other Considerations
• Keep the ambient temperature constant and below 35°C (95°F). Keep the display away
from heating and/or air conditioning vents. Changes in temperature may cause drifts in
the display circuitry, which may affect performance.
• Keep the CinemaWall away from devices that radiate electromagnetic energy such as
motors and transformers. Common sources of these include slide projectors,
speakers, power amplifiers and elevators.
• Handle the unit carefully when installing it. When carrying it, use the built-in handles; DO
NOT touch or hold the screen face.
• Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.
• Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident,
unplug the power cord and have it serviced by an authorized Runco Service Center.
• Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes flaws on the surface of the
screen.
• For correct installation and mounting it is strongly recommended to use a trained,
authorized dealer.
• To avoid sulfurization, it is strongly recommended not to place the unit in a dressing
room in a public bath or hot spring bath.

Picture Adjust
The CinemaWall has been designed to incorporate setup and calibration standards
established by the Imaging Science Foundation (ISF). The ISF has developed carefully
crafted, industry-recognized standards for optimal video performance and has
implemented a training program for technicians and installers to use these standards to
obtain optimal picture quality from Runco video display devices. Accordingly, Runco
recommends that setup and calibration be performed by an ISF-certified installation
technician.

Although it may be possible to obtain satisfactory picture quality using the naked eye and
regular program material, Runco recommends using the following calibration tools for best
results:
• External test pattern source -- Ovation Multimedia, Video Essentials or AVIA test DVD
(or equivalent).
• A blue filter (provided with many test DVDs), for color level and tint adjustments.
Connect your test pattern source to the input that you are calibrating and proceed as
follows. Perform the adjustments in the order listed here.
Brightness: On your external test pattern source, select a PLUGE pattern. (PLUGE is an
pattern.
Below Black
Above Black
Figure 4-3. Typical PLUGE Pattern for Adjusting Brightness
PLUGE patterns vary but generally consist of some combination of black, white and gray
areas against a black background. The example above includes two vertical bars and four
shaded boxes.
Select Brightness from the Picture Adjust menu. Using the left- and right-arrow (
buttons, adjust the brightness so that:
)
• The darkest black bars disappear into the background.
• The dark gray areas are barely visible.
• The lighter gray areas are clearly visible.
• The white areas are a comfortable level of true white.
• The image contains only black, gray and white (no color).

Select Color from the Picture Adjust menu. While looking at the color bar pattern through
a blue filter, adjust the color saturation level until the outermost (gray and blue) color bars
appear to be a single shade of blue:
Tint: Tint or “hue” is essentially the ratio of red to green in the color portion of the image.
When tint is decreased, the image appears redder; when it is increased the image
appears greener. To set the tint, select Tint from the Picture Adjust menu. While looking at
the color bar pattern through a blue filter, adjust the tint level until the cyan and magenta
color bars (on either side of the green bar) appear to be a single shade of blue.
Like the brightness and contrast controls, the color and tint controls
are interactive. A change to one may require a subtle change to the
other in order to achieve the optimum setting.

Video NR: To apply Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) to the input signal, select Video NR
from the Picture Adjust menu. Noise reduction is useful for clearing up noisy RGB images
such as those from a PC.
Use the left- or right-arrow buttons to select the desired amount of noise reduction,
keeping in mind that higher settings (which reduce high frequencies) may also “soften” the
image.
Kelvin: To adjust the color temperature, select Kelvin from the Picture Adjust menu.
(Color temperature defines the “color of gray.”) Use the left- and/or right-arrow buttons to
select 5400K, 6500K, 8500K or 9300K. The default setting, 6500K, is appropriate for
most situations. Higher settings produce a “bluer” picture; lower ones impart a reddish
hue to the image.

You must set the Advanced OSD option (in the Function menu) to
ON in order to access the Gamma, Dither, Black Level and Color
Note
Gamma: The Gamma control determines how gray shades are displayed between
minimum input (black) and maximum input (white) for all signals. A good gamma setting
helps to optimize blacks and whites while ensuring smooth transitions for the
“in-between” values utilized in other grays.
Unlike brightness and contrast controls, Gamma allows you to lighten or darken the
overall tone of your images without changing the extremes. All images will be more vibrant
while still showing good detail in dark areas.
The default Gamma setting of 2.2 is appropriate for most typical home theater
environments.
Dither: Dithering can improve detail in some signals, especially in dark areas of an image.
Select Dither from the Picture Adjust menu and choose the dither method that is
appropriate to the type of source material (STILL, MOTION or DIFFUSE). Or, use the
default setting of AUTO.
Black Level: This control compensates for incoming elevated black levels present in
certain video signals, and ensures that blacks in the display are neither “crushed” (where
dark grays appear black) nor excessively elevated (where blacks appear dark gray).
By default, the CinemaWall automatically determines the best setting according to the
type of incoming video signal. For some types of video, you may want to override the
setting. Generally, if black appears crushed when brightness = 32, choose “NORMAL.” If
black appears excessively elevated, use “STEP 1” or “STEP 2.”

Color Chart: Select Color Chart from the Picture Adjust menu to adjust the hue and color
density for each of the six primary colors: red, green, blue, yellow, magenta and cyan.
Changing these settings for a primary color alters the hue of that color and affects the

Notes:
1. The CinemaWall may not be able to display images from notebook computers in simultaneous
(CRT/LCD) mode. Should this occur, switch the notebook computer to “CRT only” mode. If you
are unsure how to do this, refer to your notebook computer’s user manual.
2. All modes other than the native resolution (1024x768 for the CW-42HD or 1365x768 for the
CW-50XA and CW-61) are scaled up or down to that resolution.
