This symbol warns the user that uninsulated
voltage within the unit may have sufficient
magnitude to cause electric shock.
Therefore, it is dangerous to make any kind
of contact with any part inside of this unit.
To avoid damage and prolong operating life:
1. Use only with 100-240V 50/60Hz AC power supply.
Continued operation at line voltages greater than 100-
240 Volts AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might
even cause a fire hazard.
2. Handle the unit carefully when installing it and do not
drop.
3. Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct
sunlight.
This symbol alerts the user that important
literature concerning the operation and
maintenance of this unit has been included.

order to avoid any problems.
4. 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 Service
Center.
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes
flaws on the surface of the screen.
6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly
recommended to use a trained, authorized dealer.
7. As is the case with any phosphor-based display (like a
CRT monitor, for example) light output will gradually
decrease over the life of a Plasma Display Panel.
8. To avoid sulfurization it is strongly recommended not to
place the unit in a dressing room in a public bath or hot
spring bath.

SERVICE PERSONNEL.
Warnings and Safety Precaution
This plasma monitor is designed and
manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service.
No maintenance other than cleaning is required.
Please see the section “Plasma monitor cleaning
procedure” on the next page.
The plasma display panel consists of fine picture
elements (cells) with more than 99.99 percent active
cells. There may be some cells that do not produce
light or remain lit.
9. Do not use in a moving vehicle, as the unit could drop or
topple over and cause injuries.
10. Do not place the unit on its side, upside-down or with the
screen facing up or down, to avoid combustion or electric
shock.
Plasma monitor cleaning procedure:
1. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the front panel and bezel
area. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to
clean these surfaces.
2. Clean plasma ventilation areas with a vacuum cleaner
with a soft brush nozzle attachment.
3. To ensure proper ventilation, cleaning of the ventilation
areas must be carried out monthly. More frequent cleaning
may be necessary depending on the environment in which
the plasma monitor is installed.
For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit,
read carefully and observe the following instructions.
To avoid shock and fire hazards:
1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal
heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install the unit
in a closed cabinet or shelves.
If you install the unit in an enclosure, make sure there
is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow hot air
to rise and escape. If the monitor becomes too hot, the
overheat protector will be activated and the monitor will
be turned off. If this happens, turn off the power to the
monitor and unplug the power cord. If the room where
the monitor is installed is particularly hot, move the
monitor to a cooler location, and wait for 60 minutes to
cool the monitor. If the problem persists, contact your
dealer for service.
Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in:
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas
plasma displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to
phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain
operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a
static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in
phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect
your investment in this plasma monitor, please adhere to the
following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing
the occurrence of image burn:
* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as
possible without impairing image readability.
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations
(i.e. photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Always enable and use your computer’s screen saver
function during use with a computer input source.
* Display a moving image whenever possible.
* Change the position of the menu display from time to time.
* Always power down the monitor when you are finished
using it.
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light
and dark areas, for example white characters on black
backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel color whenever
possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,
sharply defined borders between colors.
If the plasma monitor is in long term use or continuous
operation take the following measures to reduce the
likelihood of phosphor burn:
* Note:Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
Contact your dealer for other recommended procedures that
will best suit your particular application needs.

*3 The picture is displayed in the original resolution. The picture will be compressed for other signals.
*4 Aspect ratio is 5:4. This signal is converted to a 600 dots
ן 480 lines signal. *5 Normally the RGB select mode suite for the input signals is set automatically. If the picture is not displayed properly, set the RGB mode
prepared for the input signals listed in the table above.
*6 To connect the monitor to Macintosh computer, use the monitor adapter (D-Sub 15-pin) to your computer's video port.
*7 Other screen modes (ZOOM and STADIUM) are available as well.
*8 When viewing a moving picture at a vertical frequency greater than 65Hz, the picture may sometimes be unstable (jumpy). If this occurs,
please set the refresh rate of the external equipment to 60Hz.
To view 480I@60Hz (480 interlaced lines, 60Hz refresh rate) or 576I@50Hz (567 interlaced lines, 50Hz refresh rate) when sync polarity
is “Sync on Green”, set “RGB SELECT” to “MOTION”.

NOTE:
• While the input signals comply with the resolution listed in the table above, you may have to adjust the position and size of the picture or
the fine picture because of errors in synchronization of your computer.
• This monitor has a resolution of 853 dots
ן 480 lines. It is recommended that the input signal should be VGA, wide VGA, or equivalent. • With digital input some signals are not accepted.
• The sync may be disturbed when a nonstandard signal other than the aforementioned is input.
• If you are connecting a composite sync signal, use the HD terminal.
What is HDCP/HDCP technology?
HDCP is an acronym for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a system for
preventing illegal copying of video data sent over a Digital Visual Interface (DVI).
If you are unable to view material via the DVI input, this does not necessarily mean the PDPis not functioning properly. With the implementation
of HDCP, there may be cases in which certain content is protected with HDCP and might not be displayed due to the decision/intention of the
HDCP community (Digital Content Protection, LLC).
