SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15. Lightning
For added protection for this product (receiver) during a lightning
storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods
of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the anten-
na or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due
to lightning and power-line surges.
16. Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits,
or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as con-
tact with them might be fatal.
17. Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into this product through open-
ings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out
parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid
of any kind on the product.
19. Servicing
Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the prod-
uct.
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product does not operate normally by following the
operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been
damaged.
f.
If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
21. Replacement Parts

The PDP Manufacturing Process: Why colored dots may be present on the PDP screen
The PDP (Plasma Display Panel) which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. A few cell
defects will normally occur in the PDP manufacturing process. Several colored dots visible on the screen should be accept-
able. This also occurs in other PDP manufacturers' products and the dots appearing does not mean that this PDP is defec-
tive. Thus a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned. Our production technology is
designed to minimize cell defects.
Cooling Fan Noise
In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the PDP is equipped
with cooling fans to cool the Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a certain level of noise could occur while the fans
are operating and cooling the PDP.
This noise doesn't have any negative effect on the PDP's efficiency or reliability. The noise from these fans is normal during
the operation of this product. We hope you understand that a certain level of noise from the cooling fans is acceptable and is
not sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned.
