For the specifications of your plasma monitor,
refer to “Model Information”.
NEC Solutions (America), Inc.
your investment in this plasma monitor, please adhere to the
following guidelines and recommendations for minimizing
the occurrence of image burn:
* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as
possible without impairing image readability.
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations
(i.e. photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Always enable and use your computer’s screen saver
function during use with a computer input source.
* Display a moving image whenever possible.
* Change the position of the menu display from time to time.
* Always power down the monitor when you are finished
using it.
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light
and dark areas, for example white characters on black
backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel color whenever
possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,
sharply defined borders between colors.
If the plasma monitor is in long term use or continuous
operation take the following measures to reduce the
likelihood of phosphor burn:
* Note:Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.
Contact your dealer for other recommended procedures that
will best suit your particular application needs.

Ce moniteur à plasma a été conçu et fabriqué pour
une utilisation fiable et durable. Il ne nécessite aucun
entretien en dehors du nettoyage. Voir la section
“Méthode de nettoyage du moniteur àplasma”plus loin.
Le panneau à affichage plasma est constitué de fines

ATTENTION
RISQUE D’ELECTROCUTION
NE PAS OUVRIR
Pour des raisons de sécurité et pour éviter
d’endommager l’appareil, lire attentivement les
instructions suivantes.
MISE EN GARDE: AFIN DE REDUIRE LES RISQUES

DEPOSER LE COUVERCLE, IL N’Y A
AUCUNE PIECE UTILISABLE A
L’INTERIEUR DE CET APPAREIL. NE
CONFIER LES TRAVAUX D’ENTRETIEN
QU’A UN PERSONNEL QUALIFIE.
Pour éviter les risques d’éléctrocution et d’incendie:
1. Laisser suffisament d’espace autour de l’appareil pour
la ventilation et éviter toute augmentation excessive de
la température interne. Ne pas couvrir les évents ou
l’installer dans un endroit trop exigu.
Ce symbole a pour but de prévenir l’utilisateur
de la présence d’une tension dangereuse, non
isolée se trouvant à l’intérieur de l’appareil.
Elle est d’une intensité suffisante pour
constituer un risque d’électrocution. Eviter le
contact avec les pièces à l’intérieur de cet
appareil.
Si vous installez l’appareil dans un espace clos,
assurezvous qu’il y ait suffisamment d’espace au dessus
pour permettre à l’air chaud de s’élever et de s’évacuer.
Si la température du moniteur devient excessive, la
protection contre les surchauffes entrera en action et
coupera l’alimentation. Dans ce cas, éteindre l’appareil
et débrancher le câble d’alimentation. Si la température
de la pièce dans laquelle se trouve le moniteur est
particulièrement élevée, déplacer celui-ci dans un endroit
plus frais et attendre environ 60 minutes qu’il refroidisse.
Si le problème persiste, prendre contact avec votre
revendeur.
Ce symbole a pour but de prévenir l’utilisateur
de la présence d’importantes instructions
concernant l’entretien et le fonctionnement de
cet appareil. Par conséquent, elles doivent être
lues attentivement afin d’éviter des problèmes.
2. Ne pas raccorder la prise d’alimentation polarisée de ce
périphérique à une rallonge ou une prise murale si les
fiches ne peuvent pas être complètement insérées.
3. Ne pas exposer à L’eau ou à l’humidité.
4. Eviter d’endommager le cordon d’alimentation, et ne pas
modifier le cordon d’alimentation.

fabricant décline toute responsabilité en cas de blessure
corporelle ou de dégâts matériels résultant d’une opération
d’entretien quelconque effectuée par des personnes non
qualifiées ou résultant de l’ouverture du couvercle arrière.
S’adresser aux services après-vente autorisés.
• Assurez-vous de mettre en marche et d’utliser
l’économisateur d’écran chaque fois que c’est possible
lorsque vous l’utilisez avec une source d’entrée
d’ordinateur.
• Affichez une image en mouvement aussi souvent que
possible.
Pour éviter des dommages et prolonger la durée de
service de l’appareil:
• Changer la position de l’affichage de menu de temps àautre.
• Coupez toujours l’alimentation lorsque vous avez terminé
d’utiliser la moniteur.
1. N’utiliser qu’une source d’alimentation de 100-240 V
50/60 Hz CA. Le fait d’utiliser l’appareil en continu à
des tensions de ligne supérieures à 100-240 Volts CA
réduit sa durée de vie et risque de provoquer un incendie.
2. Manipuler l’appareil avec soin pendant son
déplacement et ne pas le faire tomber.
Si le moniteur est en usage continu ou longue durée, prenez
les mesures suivantes afin d’éviter l’occurence le brûlage
du luminophore:
3. Eloigner l’appareil des endroits chauds, très poussiéreux
et exposés en plein soleil.
• Abaissez le niveau de l’image (contraste, luminosité)
autant que possible, sans faire perdre la lisibilité de
l’image.
• Affichez une image avec de nombreuses couleurs et
graduations de couleur (par ex. des images
photographiques ou photo-réalistes).
• Créez un contenu d’image avec un contraste minimal
entre les zones sombres et les zones claires, par exemple,
des caractères blancs sur un fond noir. Utilisez des
couleurs complémentaires ou pastels le plus souvent
possible.
4. Eviter que des liquides et des petits objets métalliques
pénètrent à l’intérieur de l’appareil. En cas d’incident de
ce genre, débrancher le câble d’alimentation électrique
et confier le moniteur à un service après-vente agréé.
5. Ne pas frapper ou rayer la surface de la écran plasma,
car des défauts risquent de se produire sur la surface
de la écran plasma.
6. Pour un montage et une installation correcte, il est
fortement recommandé de faire appel à un revendeur
agréé et qualifié.
• Évitez d’afficher des images avec peu de couleurs et des
limites nettes et clairement définies entre les couleurs.
7. Comme c’est le cas pour tout affichage à base de
phosphore (comme un moniteur CRT, par exemple), la
puissance de lumière baisse graduellement au cours de
la vie du Panneau d’Affichage à Plasma.
* Remarque:Le brûlage de l’écran n’est pas couvert
par la garantie.
8. Pour éviter tout risque de sulfuration, il est fortement
conseillé de ne pas installer l’appareil dans un vestiaire,
un bain public ou un bain de source thermale.
9. Ne pas utiliser dans un véhicule en marche car l’unité
pourrait tomber ou glisser et provoquer des blessures.
10. Pour éviter l ‘inflammation ou les chocs électriques, ne
pas placer l’unité sur la tranche, à l’envers ou avec l’écran
vers le bas ou vers le haut.
Contactez un revendeur agréé ou un revendeur de marque
pour d'autres procédures qui conviendront le mieux à vos
besoins particuliers.
Méthode de nettoyage du moniteur à plasma:
1. Nettoyer le panneau avant et le cadre en procédant àl’aide
d’un chiffon doux et sec. Ne jamais utiliser de solvents
du type alcool ou diluant pour le nettoyage de ces surfaces.
2. Nettoyer les prises d’aération du plasma en procédant à
l’aide d’une brosse à poils doux fixée à un aspirateur.
3. Pour garantir la bonne ventilation du moniteur, nettoyer
les prises d’air tous les mois. Un nettoyage plus fréquent
peut s’avérer nécessaire selon les conditions
environnantes dans lesquelles le moniteur à plasma est
utilisé.
Pour éviter les risques de brûlage du luminophore, les
mesures suivantes sont recommandées:
Comme tous les périphériques d’affichage àbase luminophore
et tous les autres affichages gaz plasma, les moniteurs plasma
peuvent être sujets au brûlage du luminophore dans certaines
circonstances. Certaines conditions d’utilisation, telles que
l’affichage continu d’une image statique pour une durée
prolongée, peuvent causer le brûlage du luminophore si
aucune précaution n’est prise. Pour protéger votre
investissement dans ce moniteur à plasma, veuillez suivre
les directives et les conseils suivantes pour minimiser
l’occurence le marquage de l’écran:
