Ambient temperature

Do not hang up the monitor above a central heating or other heating sources. 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 characteristics

Caution:A video source (such as a video game, DVD, or video information channel) 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 OPTIONS1 menu. See p. 8.

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 colour 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 2000m 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 2000 m (local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa) it works fine again.Transportation has no influence.

Control of peripheral equipment

The infrared radiation of the screen may influence the reception sensitivity of other peripherals. Solution: replace the batteries of the remote control or change position of other equipment. E.g. keep away a wireless headphone from within a radius of 1,5 m.

No stable or not synchronised VGA picture

Check if you have selected the correct display mode in your PC. See Table of Signal Supported.

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 is not solved: Switch your monitor off and then on again.

Never attempt to repair a defective monitor yourself.

Check with your dealer or call a video technician.

Transport

Keep the original packaging to transport the monitor if needed.
