Cleaning and maintenance
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water to
which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same
type until the surface is dry.
•
Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may
become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner,
otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
•
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been
added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
•
Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma Display.
If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.

Reduces power consumption
• Power save:
When this function is turned On, luminous level of the plasma display is suppressed, so
power consumption is reduced.
• Standby save:
When this function is turned On, power consumption of the microcomputer is reduced during
power supply standby (see page 10, 11, 12), so standby power of the set is reduced.
• Power management: The unit power supply is turned On or Off depending on whether or not there is a signal
during PC input mode.
This function is enabled when it is turned On. (Only during input from PC (MiniD-sub) terminal)
• Auto power off:
Equipment power supply is turned Off when there is no signal.
When this is set to On, the power supply of the unit goes Off 10 minutes after the input
signals stop.
This function is effective for input signals except input from PC (Mini D-sub) terminal.

This Plasma Display uses special image processing. Hence a slight time lag may occur between image and audio,
depending on the type of input signal. However, this is not a malfunction.
Plasma Display panel
Symptoms
Check
The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision
technology, however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture
elements or have luminous spots. This is not a malfunction.
Some parts of the screen
do not light up.
Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause
a permanent after-image to remain on the Plasma Display.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext
and images displayed in 4:3 mode.
Note:
The permanent after-image on the Plasma Display resulting from fixed image use
is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the Warranty.
This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.
After-images appear
Whirring sounds can be
heard from the display unit.
The display unit is fitted with a cooling fan to dissipate heat generated during normal
use.The whirring sound is caused by rotation of the fan and is not a malfunction.
