Burn-in
A characteristic of Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) is that displaying the same image for a long time
causes a part of the image to stay on the screen (this is called phosphor burn-in).
Avoid burn-in as follows.
„ Use the PICTURE SHIFT function. To prevent burn-in, the picture displayed on the
screen is shifted up, down and to the left and right at regular intervals. See page 44
for details.
• Even if the PICTURE SHIFT function is turned off, the picture may shift to the left or right when
the channel or input is changed.
„ The PICTURE MODE function is initially set to BRIGHT. Unless the TV is being
watched in an extremely bright room, we recommend you change the PICTURE
MODE setting to either STANDARD or SOFT. Doing so will reduce the chance of
burn-in and extend the life of the PDP. See “PICTURE MODE” on page 30.
„ Do not display static images or characters for long periods of time.
While an image is displayed
With power OFF
19:03
19:03
Burn-in example
• Reduce CONTRAST and BRIGHT on the PICTURE menu (page 30) when viewing.
„ Do not view for long periods of time in the REGULAR mode (page 19).
Screen size is normally chosen to ensure that the picture is displayed on the entire screen. After
viewing in the REGULAR mode in which black bands may occur at the left and right of the screen,
it is recommended to change to the PANORAMIC mode to display the picture on the entire screen.
While an image is displayed
With power OFF
Burn-in example
„ Do not view for long periods of time using the MULTI-PICTURE function (page 21).
If Burn-in has occurred
If burn-in occurs, try the REFRESH function (page 38). If burn-in is minimal it may gradually become
less noticeable.
Note: Once burn-in occurs it will never disappear completely.

Pixel defects
PDPs use collections of fine dots (“pixels”) to display images. While there is no problem with more
than 99.99% of these pixels, please understand that a very small number of pixels may not light, or
may light all the time.
Do not install the TV near electronic equipment that is susceptible to
electromagnetic waves
It may cause interference in images, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from this
product.
Effect on infrared devices
There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.
Failure to take the following precautions may result in damage to the TV or
remote control.
DO NOT block the TV’s ventilation openings or holes.
(If the ventilation openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the heat may not be
able to get out.)
DO NOT place anything on top of the TV.
(such as cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)
DO NOT allow objects or liquid into the cabinet openings.
(If water or liquid is allowed to enter this equipment, fire or electric shock may be caused.)
DO NOT place any naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the TV.
The surface of the TV screen is easily damaged. Be very careful with it when handling the TV.
Should the TV screen become soiled, wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Never rub it hard.
Never use any cleaner or detergent on it.
As both sides of speaker panel can be easily scratched, cleaning
should be done carefully. If the speaker panel is dirty, please
wipe with a soft cleaning cloth (such as the cloth used to clean a
compact disc).
Speaker panels
In the event of a fault, unplug the unit and call a service technician. Do not attempt to repair it
yourself or remove the rear cover.

Troubleshooting
If a problem arises while you are using the TV, please read this troubleshooting guide carefully
before you ask to have the TV repaired. You may be able to fix it easily by yourself. For example,
if the mains plug is disconnected from the mains outlet, or the TV aerial has problems, you may
think there is a problem with the TV itself.
Important:
• This troubleshooting guide only covers problems whose causes are not easy to decide. If you
have a question when you are operating a function, read the page(s) for that function carefully,
not this troubleshooting guide.
• If you follow the advice in this troubleshooting guide without any success, unplug the mains
plug and ask for your TV to be repaired. Do not attempt to repair the TV by yourself or to
remove the rear cover of the TV.
– Have the TV and aerial been connected
properly?
– Has the aerial cable been damaged?
– Is the aerial pointing in the right
direction?
„ If you cannot turn on the TV
• Is the mains plug connected to the mains
outlet?
• Is the power lamp lit? If not, press the A
button on the TV.
– Is the aerial itself faulty?
• Make sure you set the PIP/TV/DVD
switch to the TV position. You cannot
turn the TV on when the PIP/TV/DVD
switch is set to the DVD position.
• If the TV or aerial suffers interference
from other equipment, stripes or noise
may appear in the picture. Move any
computer, or a hair drier, that can cause
interference away from your TV. Or try
moving the TV. If the aerial suffers
interference from a radio tower or high-
voltage wire, please contact your local
dealer.

double-pictures (ghosting) will occur. Try
to change the aerial’s direction or replace
it with one with better directionality.
• Are your COLOUR SYSTEM settings
correct? Follow the description
„ If you cannot turn off the TV
switch to the TV position. You cannot
turn the TV off when the PIP/TV/DVD
switch is set to the DVD position.
• Have you chosen a TV channel with very
poor reception? If so, the BLUE BACK
function will be activated: the entire
screen becomes blue, and the sound is
muted. If you still want to view the TV
channel, follow the description “BLUE
BACK” on page 38 to change the BLUE
BACK function setting to OFF.
“COLOUR SYSTEM” on page 32 to try
to solve the trouble.
• Have the COLOUR and BRIGHT settings
been adjusted properly? Follow the
description “BRIGHT” and “COLOUR”
on page 30 to try to adjust them properly.
• Videotaping teletext is not recommended
because it may not record correctly.
• If the SYSTEM setting for a TV channel
is incorrect, it may prevent the sound
from being issued. Follow the description
“EDIT/MANUAL” on page 39 to use the
MANUAL function to try to change the
SYSTEM setting.

the instructions that came with the device
for more information.
• If the TV suddenly stops responding,
press the A button on the receiver and
turn off the TV. Press the A button again
to turn on the TV. If the TV returns to a
normal state, it is not a failure.

the batteries into the remote control” on
page 7 and replace them with new batteries.

control from the sides or rear of the TV or
from more than seven metres away from the
TV? Use the remote control in front of your
TV or from less than seven metres away.
• When you are viewing a teletext
• The TV may make a crackling sound due
to a sudden change in temperature. The
picture or sound may be normal. If you
hear crackling sounds frequently while
you are viewing the TV, there may be
other causes. As a precaution, ask your
service technician to inspect it.
• Touching the screen may cause you to
feel a slight electric shock due to its static
