Lengthy display of still images from video games, banners, graphics and others may fatally damage the screen. 2. When using Picture-In-Picture, permanent damage may occur if the sub-image screen stays on the corner of screen for a long time. 3. When using the PDP in 4 : 3 formats with sidebars for a long period of time, it may cause damage to the plasma panel. It is recommended that you use 16 :9 or Panorama format. (Image burn-in can be avoided by using "Panel Protection" function or a screen-saver. However, once image burn-in occurs, it may not disappear completely. An image will be dimmed as the image is displayed long time or repeatedly.) °ÿ Any damage to the PDP caused by improper usage (such as image burn-in) shall not be covered by the warranty. Defective pixels that can be seen on PDP screen. (illuminated spots, bright spots, scotoma , blind spot, blinking) Generally, PDP consists of about 1.22 million pixels and having defective pixels is possible. A PDP with a number of defective pixels below a certain number is not considered defective. The limited number of defective pixels does not affect the performance or reliability of the PDP. The standard of inspection regarding defective pixels is the same or better as the competitor's offering on similar PDP. It is not subject to replacement or a refund. We will do our best to minimize the defective pixel as best as we can. 5 Contents °§ Safety precautions - Power Supply °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 2 - Installation °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 3 - Usage and Maintenance °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 4 °§Considerations for Usage °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 5 °§Contents °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 6 ~ 7 User Guidance Information °§Names of each part °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 8 ~ 9 °§Options °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 10 °§Accessories °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 11 °§Installing the PDP - Installing on a wall °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 12 - Installing on a desktop °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 13 °§Remote controller - Functions of remote controller buttons °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 14 - Inserting batteries into remote controller °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 15 Connection °§Connecting to the VCR °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 16 °§Connecting to the Cable TV °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 17 °§Connecting to the Camcorder/ Video game console °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 18 °§Connecting to the DVD player °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 19 °§Connecting to the DTV receiver °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 20 ~ 21 °§Connecting to the PC °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 22 ~ 23 Basic Use °§Powering the PDP °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 24 °§Selecting input source °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 25 °§Volume°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 26 °§Mute °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 26 6 Still °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 26 °§Info °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 26 °§Menu °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 27 Application °§PSM (Picture Status Memory) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 28 °§Adjusting the screen in USER mode °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 29 °§ARC (Aspect Ratio Control) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 30 °§Watching PIP °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 31 °§PC mode °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 32 ~ 33 °§Color Tone (Pre-Set) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 34 °§Color Tone (Manual adjustment) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 35 °§SSM (Sound Status Memory) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 36 °§Equalizer °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 37 °§Stereo °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 38 °§Reset °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 39 °§Language °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 40 °§Half Tone°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 41 °§Panel Protection °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 42 °§PBP Mode °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 43 °§Current Time setting°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 44 °§On Time/ Off Time (Time setting) °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 45 °§On Time Volume °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 46 °§Sleep Timer °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 47 Maintenance and Service Part °§Trouble shooting °¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 48 ~ 50 °§Supporting display mode°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 51 °§Specifications°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶°¶ 52 °§User Information 7 Names of each part Front View Main Power Button - Please turn off the main power switch, if the PDP will not be used for a long period of time.
