Introduction

What is a Plasma Display Panel (PDP)?

If voltage is applied to gas within glass panels, ultraviolet rays are produced and fused with a fluorescent substance. At that

instant, light is emitted. A Plasma Display is a next generation flat Display using this phenomenon.

160° - Wide angle range of vision

Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally broad viewing angle -- over 160 degrees. This means that the display is

clear and visible to viewers anywhere in the room.

Wide Screen

The screen of the Plasma Display is 42" so wide that your viewing experience is as if you are in a theater.

Multimedia

Connect your plasma display to a PC and you can use it for conferencing, games, and internet browsing. The Picture-in-Picture

feature allows you to view your PC and video images simultaneously.

Versatile

The light weight and thin size makes it easy to install your plasma display in a variety of locations where conventional TVs will not

fit.

The PDP Manufacturing Process: Why minute colored dots may be present on the PDP screen

The PDP (Plasma Display Panel) which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. A few cell

defects will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. Several minute colored dots visible on the screen should be accept-

able. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products and the tiny dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is defective.

Thus a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned. Our production technology is designed

to minimize cell defects during the manufacture and operation of this product.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO

RAIN OR MOISTURE.

PC Setup

- This TV provides Plug and Play capability, meaning that the PC adjusts automatically to its settings. The TV sends configuration

information (EDID) to the PC using the Video Electronics Standard Association (VESA) Display Data Channel (DDC) protocol.

How to connect

1. To get the best picture quality, adjust the PC graphics card to a

640x480, 60Hz.

2. Use the TV’s RGB INPUT or DVI (Digital Visual Interface) INPUT

port for video connections, depending on your PC connector.

If the graphic card on the PC does not output analog and digital

RGB simultaneously, connect only one of both RGB INPUT or DVI

INPUT to display the PC on the TV.

Closed Captions

Closed captioning is a process which converts the audio portion of a television program into written words which then appear as sub-

titles on the television screen. Closed captions allow viewers to read the dialogue and narration of television programs.

Using Closed Captions

Captions are the subtitles of the dialogue and narration of television programs. For prerecorded

programs, program dialogue can be arranged into captions in advance. Its possible to caption a

live program by using a process called real-time captioning, which creates captions instantly.

Real-time captioning is normally done by professional reporters using a machine shorthand sys-

tem and computer for translation into English.

Captioning is an effective system for the hearing-impaired, and it can also aid in teaching lan-

guage skills.

FOLLOW ME

•

The picture at left shows a typical caption.

Caption Tips

• Not all TV broadcasts include closed caption signals.

• Sometimes TV stations broadcast four different caption signals on the same channel. By selecting From CC 1 to CC 4, you can

choose which signal you view. CC 1 is usually the signal with the captions, while Another mode might show demonstration or

programming information.

• Your TV might not receive caption signals normally in the following situations.

1. Poor reception conditions are encountered:

•

IGNITION:

Picture may flutter, drift, suffer from black spots, or horizontal streaking. Usually caused by inter-

ference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appli-

ances.

GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused when the TV signal splits and follows two paths. One is the direct path and the

other is reflected off tall buildings, hills or other objects. Changing the direction or position of the

antenna may improve reception.

SNOW:

If your receiver is located at the weak, fringe area of a TV signal, your picture may be marred by

small dots. It may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture.

2. An old, bad, or illegally recorded tape is being played.

3. Strong, random signals from a car or airplane interfere with the TV signal.

4. The signal from the antenna is weak.

5. The program wasn’t captioned when it was produced, transmitted, or taped.

Maintenance

- Early malfunctions can be prevented. Careful and regular cleaning can extend the amount of time you will have your

new TV. Be sure to turn the power off and unplug the power cord before you begin any cleaning.

Cleaning the Screen

1. Here’s a great way to keep the dust off your screen for a while. Wet a soft cloth in a mixture of lukewarm water and

a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then use it to wipe the

screen.

2. Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.

Cleaning the Cabinet

To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.

Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.

Extended Absence

If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug

the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.
