Important information

About Permanent after-image

Due to the characteristics of a plasma screen, if the same image is displayed for an extended period of time, permanent after-image (image retention) in part of the screen may result. As a result of accumulative effect, brightness deterioration results.

To prevent permanent after-image, it is recommended not to display the same image for

an extended period of time, or in 14:9 or 4:3 mode (see page 18). If retention occurs, display a moving picture like a video movie. This may help to reduce minor

permanent after-image. But it cannot be removed entirely once it has occurred. If the same static picture is displayed frequently, it is recommended to decrease “Brightness,” or to adjust the Long life setting (see page 31).

About cabinet

Never spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on the cabinet. This may cause a discoloration or damage the cabinet.

Some pixels of the screen do not light up

The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however sometimes some pixels of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a sign of a malfunction.

About infrared rays

The plasma screen of this unit emits infrared rays in normal operation, and may influence some infrared operated equipment by a use state although the measures of infrared ray (filter, etc.) are taken. Locate such equipment carefully to prevent rays from the plasma screen causing any problems.

About Interference

Plasma display may cause interference in image, sound, etc. of other electronic equipment that is easy to receive electromagnetic waves (e.g. AM radios and video equipment) under certain installed condition. In particular, it may affect electronic equipment beyond the residential unit where a plasma display TV is used.
