These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. • MU-42PZ15/A/B/G/K/S : A Class B digital device This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: - Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Colored dots on the screen A PDP (Plasma Display Panel), depending on its size, contains from 0.9 to 2.2 million individual cells. Even with advanced technology it is inevitable that a few defective cells may be found in the PDP. These defective cells may be visible as colored dots. We continually strive to minimize the number of defective cells but the existence of a few such defects will not be considered as sufficient reason for exchange or refund. Earth wire should be connected. - If the earth wire is not connected, there is possible a danger of electric shock caused by the current leakage. - If grounding methods are not possible, a separate circuit breaker should be employed and installed by a qualified electrician. - Do not connect ground to telephone wires, lightning rods or gas pipe. WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE AND ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS PRODUCT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. Power supply cord/appliance coupler is used as the main disconnect device, and as such shall be easily accessible after installation.
