Preventing Image Burn on the plasma display
Fixed images displayed on the plasma display for an extended period of several hours may cause
uneven pixel aging causing damage to the plasma display. The screensaver mode helps reduce this
phenomenon, but in general you should to try avoid displaying fixed images for extended periods on
the plasma display.
Images of high luminance displayed on the plasma display for more than 60 seconds may cause lin-
gering images to remain on the screen. These images will automatically disappear, but may take
time depending on the luminance of the images and how long they were displayed on the screen.

ROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
T
•IGNITION NOISE:
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electrical drills and other electrical appliances.
•GHOSTS:
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the
direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some
other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the
antenna system such as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to
the same antenna without using multiple antenna couplers.
Ghosting occurring when the plasma display is connected to a cable TV
system may indicate a bad cable wire or loose connection. Confirm that
the cable wire is properly connected.
•SNOW:
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where
the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of
small dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to
install a special antenna to improve the picture.
Snowing occurring when the plasma display is connected to a cable TV
system may indicate a bad cable wire or loose connection. Confirm that
the cable wire is properly connected.
•RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in
some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.
•PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS
This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This
is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers. lf this monitor causes a
problem to Radio receivers, then take the following steps:
-Keep the monitor away from Radio.
-Adjust Radio antennas in order for the monitor not to receive
interference.
-The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the monitor.
-Use a coaxial cable for antenna.
You can check if this monitor influences Radio receivers by turning off all
other equipment other than the monitor.
If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the monitor, check the
instructions mentioned above.
Vertical stripes appear,
depending on the screen
contents.
•The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of
internal radiation. Depending on the screen contents, in rare cases this
may cause vertical stripes to appear because of failure to light. Please
note that this is not a malfunction.

About Interference to Infrared Devices
Please note in advance that using other infrared devices (such as infrared cordless headphones)
near the plasma display may cause infrared interference to occur.
About Pixel Defects
A plasma display is created by using a collection of miniature pixels. It is possible to display more
than 99.99% of valid pixels, however a small fraction of pixels over the life of the product may not
illuminate or may constantly be illuminated.
This is not to be considered a defect in the plasma panel.
