Your PLASMA HDTV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however, sometimes some pixels of your PLASMA HDTV may not display. Pixel defects within industry specifications are inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a defective product.

When your PLASMA HDTV’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the signal is up-converted (increased) to match your TV’s display capabilities. Up-converting can cause noise or trash.

The TV remembers the volume level from the last time you adjusted it. If the sound level is higher or lower from another source, then the loudness will change.

The TV remembers the viewing mode from the last time you used a particular input (AV, Component, HDMI and TV).

The PLASMA HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.

Best Image Quality will be achieved by the HDMI Input, then YPbPr, then RGB.

However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur.

Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for standard 4:3 Televisions. The PLASMA HDTV has the capability of expanding this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. To use this function follow the instructions given in page 34.
