NOTES: 1. Do not block the ventilation holes of the Plasma Television. Blocking the ventilation holes might cause fire or defect.

2.In case of an abnormal symptom, unplug the AC cord.

3.If you purchased the wall mount bracket option, please ask for professional installer. Do not install by yourself.

4.Install the unit at a proper area where it does not expose anyone to any danger of hitting

themselves (for example their hands, head or face, etc.) against the edge of the unit and cause personal injury.

NOTE: The TableTop Stand for model P55T551 is not included (Optional).

ANTENNA

Unless your Plasma Television is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color TV antenna is recommended for best performance. However, if you are located in an exceptionally good signal area that is free from interference and multiple image ghosts, an indoor antenna may be sufficient.

LOCATION

Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set. In order to prevent an internal temperature increase, maintain a space of 10 cm (4 inches) from the

sides/back of the Television, and 30 cm (12 inches) from the top of the television to the ceiling. To avoid

cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.
