HeatThe product should be situated away from heat sources such asradiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (includingamplifiers) that produce heat.(Continued from previous page)The PDP Manufacturing Process: Why colored dots may be present on the PDP screenThe PDP (Plasma Display Panel) which is the display device of this product is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. A few celldefects 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 isdesigned to minimize cell defects.Cooling Fan NoiseIn the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the PDP is equippedwith cooling fans to cool the Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a certain level of noise could occur while the fansare 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 duringthe operation of this product. We hope you understand that a certain level of noise from the cooling fans is acceptable and isnot sufficient cause for the PDP to be exchanged or returned.
