NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECTS ON PLASMA DISPLAY Avoid displaying stationary images on your Plasma display for extended periods of time. Fixed (non-moving) patterns or images (including but not limited to PIP/ POP windows, closed captions, video game patterns, TV station logos, stock tickers, websites, and special formats that do not use the entire screen) can become permanently ingrained in the Plasma display and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is

NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

Note:

Make sure to insert the plug of each cord securely.

WARNING:

•Do not connect this unit to power using any other power cord. This could cause fire, electric shock, or damage.

•Do not use with a voltage other than the power voltage displayed. This could cause fire, electric shock, or damage.

CAUTION:

•When this unit is not used for a long time (e.g., if you are away on a trip), in the interest of safety, be sure to unplug it from the wall outlet.

•Do not plug/unplug the power cord when your hands are wet. This may cause electric shock.
