Precautions
Precautions
On safety
• A nameplate indicating operating voltage, power
consumption, etc. is located on the back of the unit.
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into the cabinet,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified
personnel before operating it any further.
• Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be
used for several days or more.
• To disconnect the AC power cord, pull it out by
grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
• When the unit is installed on the floor, be sure to use
the optional stand.
• If you continue to display the same image on the
screen for a long period of time, part of that image
may burn into the screen and leave a ghosting image
behind. To avoid this, please use the screen saver
function provided to equalize use over the entire
screen. If ghosting occurs, use the screen saver
function, or use some kind of video or imaging
software to provide constant movement on the
screen. If light ghosting (image burn-in) occurs,it
may become less conspicuous, but once burn-in
occurs, it will never completely disappear.
On installation
• Allow adequate air circulation to prevent internal
heat build-up. Do not place the unit on surfaces
(rugs, blankets, etc.) or near materials (curtains,
draperies) that may block the ventilation holes.
• Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources
such as radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to
direct sunlight, excessive dust, mechanical vibration
or shock.
• When you install multiple equipment with the unit,
the following problems, such as malfunction of the
Remote Commander, noisy picture, noisy sound,
may occur depending on the position of the unit and
other equipment.
On the PDP (Plasma Display Panel)
• The plasma display panel is manufactured using
extremely high precision technology. However,
black points may appear or may be seen on the
screen, or bright points (white, red, blue or green)
may remain on the screen, or some striped or color
irregularities may be seen. These are not
malfunctions.
• Do not display the same still image on the screen for
a long time. Otherwise, an afterimage or ghost may
appear on a part of the panel. Use the screen saver
function to equalize use of the screen display.
• Because of the way it is made, when this plasma
display panel is used in places with low air pressure,
such as at high altitudes, a buzzing or humming
noise may emanate from the unit.
On cleaning
To keep the unit looking brand-new, periodically
clean it with a mild detergent solution. Never use
strong solvents such as thinner or benzine, or abrasive
cleansers since these will damage the cabinet. As a
safety precaution, unplug the unit before cleaning it.
On repacking
Do not throw away the carton and packing materials.
They make an ideal container in which to transport the
unit. When shipping the unit to another location,
repack it as illustrated on the carton.
If you have any questions about this unit, contact your
authorized Sony dealer.
