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.
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.
After-images appear
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.
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.
4-18.5 Video Selector Box
The video selector box is mounted in the front overhead cabinet. This allows the independent
switching of two VCRs, TV, TV cable, and TV game to the two standard TVs in the motor
home.
