Do not expose the PDP to extreme temperature conditions or to extreme humidity conditions.
Do not expose the PDP to direct sunlight and other sources of heat.
Do not expose the PDP to any liquids.
Never put objects of any kind into the television, and do not place a water-containing vessel on the
PDP.
During a storm conditions (especially when there is lightning) unplug the PDP from the mains
socket and aerial.
Do not step on or twist the power cord.
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

User Instructions
Screen Image retention
Do not display a still image (such as on a video game or when hooking up a PC to this PDP) on the
plasma monitor panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image
retention is also known as “screen burn”. To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of
brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.
Cell Defect
The plasma display panel consists of fine cells. Although the panels are produced with more than
99.9 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.
Height
The PDP can normally operate only under 2000m in height. It might abnormally function at a place
over 2000m in height and do not install and operate there.
Warranty
- Warranty Period: One year starting from the purchase of your PDP.
- Warranty does not cover any damage caused by image retention.
- Burn-in is not covered by the warranty.

Connecting to an Aerial (or Cable Television Network)
To view television channels correctly, a signal must be received by
the set from one of the following sources:
An outdoor aerial
A cable television network
A satellite network
1 In the first three cases, connect the aerial or network input cable to
the 75 coaxial socket on the rear of the Media Station.
2 If you are using an indoor aerial, you may need to turn it when
tuning your television until you obtain a picture that is both sharp
and clear.
For further details, refer to:
Storing Channels Automatically on page 18.
Storing Channels Manually on page 20.

The speakers MUST have more than 15watts rating (impedance 8).
The ferrite cores are used to attenuate undesired signals. When you connect the speaker wire
to the
EXTERNAL SPEAKER OUT (8) connector, bind the speaker wire round the ferrite core
to secure it.

EMI characteristic will
become worse because power input and output
signals interrupt each other.
The ferrite core is used to attenuate undesired signals.
When you connect the power cord to the
POWER IN
connector on the rear of the Media Station, bind the
power cord round the ferrite core to secure it.
