+Do not use in hot and cold rooms (locations)

•When the unit is used in rooms (locations) with low temperature, the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the unit will recover when the temperature returns to normal.

•Do not leave the unit in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the PDP panel to malfunction.

(Storage temperature: 0°C to +50°C Working temperature: 5°C to +40°C )

Note:

If your problem is not solved, turn your unit off and then on again.

Never attempt to repair a PDP TV yourself.
