Safety Precautions

If problems occur during use

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odour starts to come out
from the Plasma Display, immediately unplug the power cord plug from the wall outlet.

• 

If you continue to use the Plasma Display in this condition, fire or electric shock could result. After checking that the
smoke has stopped, contact your local JVC dealer so that the necessary repairs can be made. Repairing the Plasma
Display yourself is extremely dangerous, and shall never be done.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma Display, if the Plasma Display is dropped, or if the cabinet
becomes damages, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.

• 

A short circuit may occur, which could cause fire. Contact your local JVC dealer for any repairs that need to be

made.

 CAUTION

When using the Plasma Display

Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma Display.

• 

Heated air comes out from the ventilation holes at the top of Plasma Display will be hot. Do not bring your hands
or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat, close to this port, otherwise burns or deformation could result.

Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma Display.

• 

If the Plasma Display is moved while some of the cables are still connected, the cables may become damaged,
and fire or electric shock could result.

Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall socket as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.

• 

Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it becoming dusty.

• 

If dust built up on the power cord plug, the resultant humidity can damage the insulation, which could result in fire.
Pull the power cord plug out from the wall outlet and wipe the mains lead with a dry cloth.

This Plasma Display radiates infrared rays, therefore it may affect other infrared communication equipment.
Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or reflected light from your Plasma Display.

Cleaning and maintenance

The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.

• 

If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water to
which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same
type until the surface is dry.

• 

Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may

become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner,
otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.

If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

• 

If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been

added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.

• 

Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma Display.
If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.

• 

Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the

cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods
in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.
