Installing the Plasma Display
Locating
• Avoid direct sunlight. Maintain adequate ventilation.
• The length of the system cable used to connect the Plasma Display and
the Set-Top Box is about 3 m (118 inches).
• Because the Plasma Display is heavy, be sure to have someone to help
you when moving it.
• Do not place anything on the top of the Media Receiver; it will not receive
enough ventilation and will not operate properly.
Note
Allow enough space around the upper and back parts when installing to ensure
ventilation around the backside of the Plasma Display.
Preparation
Connecting the cable between the PDP and the Set-Top Box:
• White connectors connect to the WHITE terminal on the Set-Top Box
and DVI terminal on the PDP.
• Black connectors connect to the BLACK terminal on the Set-Top Box and
DFP terminal on the PDP.

Basic Operation
Turning on the power
Check that the AC switches on the back of the PDP and the Set-Top Box are
turned to “I”.
1. Press PWR on the Plasma Display and Set-Top Box. The power LED on PDP
and Set-Top Box light up in red to indicate standby mode.
2. Confirm that the STANDBY indicators light up red, and then press TV on the
remote control unit or STANDYBY/ON on the right side of Plasma Display to
turn the system on. The POWER ON indicators on the Plasma Display and
Set-Top Box light up blue.
Note
In this manual, “system” means the Plasma Display Panel and the Media
Receiver (Set-Top Box).
Turning off the power
Press PWR button on the remote control or STANDBY/ON button on the right
side of the PDP. The power LEDs on the PDP and the Set-Top Box turn red to
indicate standby mode.

Note
If the PDP is not to be used for a long period of time, unplug the AC cord from
the wall outlet.

Basic Operation
Using the Remote Control
Use the remote control unit by pointing it towards the remote sensor window.
Objects between the remote control unit and sensor window may prevent
proper operation.
Inserting batteries
Install batteries in the remote control unit before using:
1. Open the battery cover.
2. Insert the two AA size batteries supplied with the product. Place batteries
with their terminals corresponding to the (+) and (-) indicators in the
battery compartment.
3. Close the battery cover.
Cautions regarding the remote control unit:
• Do not expose the remote control unit to shock. In addition, do not
expose the remote control unit to liquids, and do not place in an area
with high humidity.
• Do not leave the remote control unit under direct sunlight. The heat may
cause deformation of the unit.
• The remote control unit may not work properly if the remote sensor
window of the Plasma Display is under direct sunlight or strong lighting.
In such case, change the angle of the lighting or Plasma Display set, or
operate the remote control unit closer to the remote sensor window.
• If the remote control unit fails to operate Plasma Display System
functions, replace the batteries in the remote control unit.
