The PDP which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells and a
few cell defects can occur in the manufacture of the PDP. Several colored dots visible on the
screen would be acceptable, in line with other PDP manufacturers and would not mean that the
PDP is faulty. We hope you will understand that the product which corresponds to this standard
is regarded as acceptable. It means that it could not be changed or refunded.
We promise that we'll do our best to develop our technology to minimize the cell defects.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

red.
If you have a mono VCR, connect the audio cable from the VCR to the AUDIO(L/MONO)
input of the Plasma Monitor.
If you connect an S-VIDEO VCR to the S-VIDEO input, the picture quality is improved,
compared to connecting a regular VCR to the Video input.
Avoid having a fixed image remain on the screen for a long period of time. A frozen still
picture from a VCR (or if a CH label is displayed) displayed on the screen for prolonged
periods will result in an image ghost remaining even when you change the image. Avoid
prolonged display of a still image.
