Before Calling Service

Ambient	Do not hang up the monitor above a central heating or other heating sources.
temperature	If the power/standby indicator in front is red and blinking, the temperature inside
	the monitor has become too high and has activated the protector. The monitor will
	be turned off. Unplug the power cord and wait for the monitor to cool down.
Care of the screen	Clean the anti-reflex coated flat glass screen with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not
	use abrasives solvents as it can damage the glass surface of the screen.
Plasma Display	Caution: A video source (such as a video game, DVD, or information channel)
characteristics	which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the monitor, can cause damage to
	the screen. When your Flat-Monitor is continuously used with such a source, the
	pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (DVD, etc.) could leave an image
	permanently on the screen. When not in use, turn the video source off.
	To prevent or to reduce burn-in of the screen, select a LONG LIFE setting in the
	OPTION 2 menu. See p. 14.
	Very incidentally and after a longer period of unuse (approx. 1 year) the screen
	may display some strange colour deficiencies. This is quite normal for plasma
	displays and these effects will disappear after the set has been turned on for some
	time.
	A plasma display consists of more than 1,2 Million color pixels. It is within industry
	standards that very few pixels (< 0.001%) may be defective, even for a new set.
	There is however no reason to doubt about the quality of the set.
	The plasma display technology operates with rare gases which are being influenced
	by air pressure. Up to an altitude of 6526ft above sea-level (local air pressure equal
	or above 800 hPa), the display is functioning fine. Operating the set at a higher
	altitude (lower air pressure), the picture becomes unstable and the picture
	performance is deteriorating.
	The plasma display might then also produce a humming sound. After bringing the
	set below 6526 ft (local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa) it works fine again.
	Transportation has no influence.
Control of	The infrared radiation of the screen may influence the reception sensitivity of
peripheral	other peripherals. Solution: replace the batteries of the remote control or change
equipment	position of other equipment. E.g. keep away a wireless headphone from within a
	radius of 4.92 ft.
No stable or not	Check if you have selected the correct display mode in your PC.
synchronized	See Table of Signals Supported.
VGA picture
No picture	Are the supplied cables connected properly? (The power cable to the display, the
	VGA cables,...)
	Is your PC switched on?
	Do you see a black screen and the indicator in front of the monitor lights up
	green, this means that the display mode is not supported.
	Switch your VGA source to a correct mode.
Remote control	If your monitor no longer responds to the remote control, the batteries may be
	exhausted.
If your problem	Switch your monitor off and then on again.
is not solved	Never attempt to repair a defective monitor yourself.
	Check with your dealer or call a technician.
Transport	Keep the original packaging to transport the monitor if needed.
