4Safety PrecautionsPower SupplyCautionsWarningsDo not use a damagedpower cord or plug or aloose outlet.Doing so may result infire or electric shock.Do not plug severaldevices into the sameoutlet.Doing so may causethe outlet to overheatand start a fire.Insert the power plugfully into the outlet.A loose or improperlyinserted power plugmay result in fire.Do not touch the powerplug with wet hands.Doing so may result inelectric shock.Be sure to ground the unit.Failing to do so may lead to electric shock when a short circuit or overload occurs. If necessary, install a ground fault circuit breaker. Never ground to a telephone line, lightning rod, or metal gas pipe. (Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.)Do not bend the powercord excessively or placeheavy objects on it.Doing so may result infire or electric shock.Always unplug the unitbefore cleaning.Not doing so mayresult in fire or electricshock.When disconnecting thepower cord from an ACoutlet, always grasp it bythe plug.Pulling on the cordcan damage theinternal wire and mayresult in fire.The purpose of these precautions is toensure user safety and prevent propertydamage. Be sure to read and observe all safetyprecautions.
5Safety PrecautionsInstallationCautionsWarningsWarningsDo not place the unit where itis exposed to rain, excessivemoisture or grease. Doing so may result in fire,electric shock, malfunction,or deformation.Do not use or store flammable or combustible materialsnear the unit.Doing so may result in fireor explosion.Do not place the unit on anunstable surface, such as awobbly stand or sloped table, oron any surface whose area issmaller than the bottom area ofthe unit.If a child climbs on the unit, it couldtopple and fall onto the child,resulting in serious injury to thechild or damage to the unit. Placethe unit on a flat stable surface.Do not place containers withliquids such as flower vases,soft drink cans, or medicinebottles or small metallic objectson top of the unit.If liquid enters the unit or anymetal object falls into the unit,it may result in short-circuit,fire, or electric shock.Do not place the unit in apoorly ventilated enclosure,such as a cabinet.Doing so poses a seriousrisk of fire.Do not run power cords nearheat-producing appliancessuch as radiators, stoves, orirons.The excessive heat couldmelt the insulation andexpose live wires, resultingin fire or electric shock.Install the antenna away fromhigh-voltage power lines andcommunication cables andmake sure it is installedsecurely.If the antenna touches a powerline, contact with the antennacould result in fire, electricshock, serious injury, or death.Do not place a burning candle,burning anti-mosquito incense,or lighted cigarette on top of theunit. Do not place the unit nearany heat source such as afireplace or space heater.Doing so poses a seriousrisk of fire.Install the unit at an adeq-uate distance from thewall to ensure sufficientventilation.If the temperature insidethe unit rises, it may res-ultin fire.Do not cover the unit witha tablecloth, curtain, orother material.If the temperature insidethe unit rises, it may resultin fire.Be sure to place the uniton a level surface.Form a drip loop where thecoaxial antenna cable entersyour building to prevent rainwaterfrom traveling along the cableand coming in contact with theantenna input terminal.If rainwater finds its way insidethe unit, it may result in fire orelectric shock.The following precautions are divided into "Warnings" and "Cautions".Warning : Ignoring this precaution may result in death or serious injury.Caution : Ignoring this precaution may result in injury or property damage.
6Safety PrecautionsUse and Maintenance WarningsCautionsDo not insert any metalobjects, such as a screwdriver,paper clip, or bent wire intothe ventilation openings orA/V terminals.Doing so poses a seriousrisk of fire or electric shock.Do not allow children toclimb or hang on the unit.The unit could toppleover onto a child andresult in serious injury.Never disassemble or modifythe unit in any way.

10Considerations For UsageSafety PrecautionsStill image (immovable) screen may cause permanent damage toPDP TV.1. Lengthy display of still images from video games, banners, graphics and others may fatally damagethe screen.2. When using Picture-In-Picture, permanent damage may occur if the sub-image screen stays on thecorner of screen for a long time.3. When using the PDP TV in 4 : 3 formats with sidebars for a long period of time, it may causedamage to the plasma panel. It is recommended that you use Wide(16 :9) or Panorama format.(Image burn-in can be avoided by using "Panel Protection" function or a screen-saver. However,once image burn-in occurs, it may not disappear completely. An image will be dimmed as the imageis displayed long time or repeatedly.)Any damage to the PDP TV caused by improper usage (such as image burn-in) shall not be coveredby the warranty.Defective pixels that can be seen on PDP TV screen.(illuminated spots, bright spots, blind spot, blinking)Generally, PDP TV consists of about 1.22 million pixels and having defective pixels is possible. A PDPTV with a number of defective pixels below a certain number is not considered defective. The limitednumber of defective pixels does not affect the performance or reliability of the PDP TV. The standard ofinspection regarding defective pixels is the same or better as the competitor's offering on similar PDPTV. It is not subject to replacement or a refund. We will do our best to minimize the defective pixel asbest as we can.
