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

NOTE:

When you connect a computer to this monitor, use an RGB cable including the ferrite core on both ends of the cable. If you do not do this, this monitor will not conform to mandatory FCC standards.

Attaching the ferrite cores:

Set the ferrite cores on both ends of the power cable (supplied).

Close the lid tightly until the clamps click.

Important Information

i2

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.

This symbol alerts the user that important literature concerning the operation and maintenance of this unit has been included. Therefore, it should be read carefully in order to avoid any problems.

WARNING

TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. ALSO DO NOT USE THIS UNIT’S POLARIZED PLUG WITHAN EXTENSION CORD RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLETS, UNLESS THE PRONGS CAN BE FULLY INSERTED. REFRAIN FROM OPENING THE CABINET AS THERE ARE HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

Warning

Not for use in a computer room as defined in the Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/ Data Processing Equipment ANSI/NFPA 75.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio / TV technician for help.

 

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.

2.

Do not use this unit’s polarized plug with extension cords

 

or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.

3.

Do not expose the unit to water or moisture.

4.

Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to

 

modify the power cord.

5.

Unplug the power cord during electrical storms or if

 

the unit will not be used over a long period.

6.

Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous

 

high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in

 

this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a

 

serious risk of electric shock.

7.

Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. The

 

manufacturer is not liable for any bodily harm or damage

 

caused if unqualified persons attempt service or open

 

the back cover. Refer all service to authorized Service

 

Centers.

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:

1.Use only with 120V 60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120 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.

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.

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 wiping cloth (attached) or 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.

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

likelihood of phosphor 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).

*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.

* Note: Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Contact your dealer for other recommended procedures that will best suit your particular application needs.

CAUTION:

WHEN POSITIONING THIS EQUIPMENT ENSURE THAT THE MAINS PLUG AND SOCKET IS EASILY ACCES- SIBLE.

Information to User

Alteration or modifications carried out without appro- priate authorization may invalidate the user's right to operate the equipment.

WARNING:

Handling the cord on this product or cords associated with accessories sold with the product will expose you to lead, a chemical known to the State of California and other governmental entities to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after

handling.
