Never connect the plasma television to 50 Hz, direct current, or anything other than the specified voltage.

Never remove the back cover of the plasma television as this can expose you to very high voltages and other hazards. If the television does not operate properly,

unplug the plasma television and call your authorized dealer or service center.

Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving) patterns can be permanently imprinted onto your TV screen. Such “SCREEN DAMAGES” constitute misuse and are NOT
