Care of the screen

Do not touch, push or rub or strike the screen with anything hard as this may scratch, mar or damage the
screen permanently. And please do not rub with dust clothes with chemical treatment.
Do not touch the surface with bare hands or greasy cloth (some cosmetics are detrimental to the screen).
Unplug the TV before cleaning the screen. When the surface becomes dusty, please wipe gently with absorbent
cotton or other soft materials like chamois soaks.
Do not use acetone, toluene and alcohol because they cause chemical damage. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners. Wipe off saliva or water drops as soon as possible. Their long time contact with the screen
causes deformations and color fading..

Plasma display characteristics

This Plasma display is designed to be used at altitudes up to 6562 ft above sea level (and/or local air pressure
equal or above
800 hPa). Operating this set at higher altitude (lower air pressure) is possible. However, at high altitudes (or
local air pressure equal or below 800 hPa) the picture on this display may become unstable and picture
performance can deteriorate. In addition, the plasma display may produce a humming sound in these conditions.
These possible adverse effects relate to the altitude and are common of all plasma displays. Once the set is
brought below aprox 6562 ft (and/or local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa) its function will most likely
return to normal.
Note: Transportation at high altitudes has no negative effect on the set or picture performance.
