Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.

■Do not make any modifications to, place heavy objects on, place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist, or forcefully pull the power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable which can cause fire or electric shock. If damage to the cable is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.

If the Plasma TV will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

If problems occur during use

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma TV, unplug the power cord immediately.

■Continued use of the TV under these conditions might cause fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the TV evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Service to the TV by any unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.

■A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.

When using the Plasma TV

Do not bring your hands, face, or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma TV.

■The top of the Plasma TV is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the TV could also result in heat damage to the object as well as to the TV if its ventilation holes are blocked.

Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma TV.

■Moving the TV with its cables attached might damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock.

Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.

■Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from becoming dusty.

■Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase humidity which might damage the insulation and cause fire. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth.

This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays; therefore, it may affect other infrared communication equipment.

Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or reflected light from your Plasma TV.
