Plasma Display Panel
Symptoms Check
Some parts of the screen do not
light up. ■ 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.
An afterimage appears. ■ Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an
extended period, as this can cause a permanent
afterimage to remain on the Plasma TV.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games,
computer images, teletext and images displayed in
4:3 mode.
Note:
The permanent afterimage on the plasma TV 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.
Whirring sounds can be heard from
the display unit. ■ The TV is fitted with a cooling fan to dissipate heat
generated during normal use. The rotating fan may
cause a whirring sound, but it is not a malfunction.
