WORDING FOR CLASS I EQUIPMENT INSTRUCTION BOOKS AND LABELS
The mains lead on this equipment is supplied with a molded plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the pin face of the plug.
Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362 fuse must be used of the same rating. If the fuse cover is detachable
never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of the same colour as that visible on the pin face of
the plug. Fuse covers are available from your dealer.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fi tted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to
reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer.
Should it be necessary to change the mains plugs, this must be carried out by a competent person, preferably a qualifi ed electrician.
If there is no alternative to cutting off the mains plug, ensure that you dispose of it immediately, having fi rst removed the fuse, to avoid a possible
shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

ABOUT PLASMA DISPLAY PANEL
Image Retention of Plasma Display Panel
The plasma display panel has one of characteristics that can result in panel image retention depending on how the
plasma display is used. The following are the common reasons for and effective preventive measures against the
image retention.
Characteristics of Image Retention
Image retention is caused by partial degrading the phosphors due
to the partial display of character and fi gure.
For example, when the characters as shown in Fig. A are displayed
continuously for a long period of time, only the phosphors (Red/Green/
Blue) displaying the characters are degraded. Consequently, when
displaying an all white image on the entire screen as shown in Fig. a,
the marks remaining by the characters will show colour differences;
therefore, note that it is not burnt remains of the phosphors.
The degree of image retention is proportional to the Brightness
and Display Time for the characters and/or fi gures.
The brighter the characters and fi gure, the more phosphor is
degraded. As shown in Fig. B, in case of displaying images that
have different brightness each for a long time, Fig. b shows that
the brighter the image, the more it tends to remain.
* The illustrations are images to explain image retention. The actual manners on the image retention vary depending
on such conditions as operation time and brightness.
Method to Reduce Image Retention
Use “Screen Wipe” or “Luminance Manager” functions on the display, which are available from Confi guration
menu. (Refer to
30
,
31
.)
After displaying certain images such as a still image for a long time, “Screen Wipe” can be used to reduce the
image retention by displaying a completely white screen for about 1~2 hours. In addition, “Luminance Manager”
function works when displaying images such as TV station logos or clock displays in the corners of the screen.
Use in combination with moving images.
Since the entire screen has relatively even degradation of the phosphor in moving images, it can reduce the partial
image retention. We recommend to use together with such moving images as DVD.
Please be careful that leaving the images in 2-picture mode for a long period of time can cause image retention.
Some television broadcasts contain images of which cut the left/right or top/bottom, and in which broadcast station
identity or a clock is displayed for a long time at the same position. Please be aware that it may cause the image
retention.
Common Characteristics of Plasma Display Panels
The following are the common characteristics of Plasma Display Panel due to structural reasons.
Please note that they are not malfunctions.
Residual image
When a still image or menu is displayed on the screen for a short time (about a minute) and then switches to another
image, it may leave an “after-image” on the screen.
The residual image will disappear on its own.
Surface on Panel
The plasma panel displays images by generating discharges internally. This could raise the temperature of the display surface.
In addition, do not allow any forceful impact to the surface of panel because plasma panel is fi ne-processing glass
even though the panel strengthens by the front fi lter made of tempered glass.
Defective Pixels on Panel
The plasma display panel is manufactured with high-precision technology. However, there might be some pixels that
do not light, are brighter than the others, or in different colours, etc.

Information
How to secure the cables.
After connecting all of the cables to the terminals, secure them with the clamps.
When you secure the cables, please be careful not to tighten too much.
CAUTION
Use only the Power Cord provided.
Do not use a power supply voltage other than that indicated (AC220-240V, 50Hz). It may cause fi re or electric shock.
For the plasma television, a three-core power cord with a ground terminal is used for effi ciency protection. Always be
sure to connect the
Power Cord
to a grounded outlet and make sure that the cord is properly grounded. If you use a
power source converter plug, use an outlet with a ground terminal and screw down the ground line.
Connection to a Cable Distribution System is to be provided through a galvanic isolator.
Ensure that both ends of power cord are easily accessible.
If you have to change the power cord, please use the certifi ed power cord that meets your region’s safety standard.
