BENEFITS
INTRODUCTION
What
is
a
Plasma
Display
Panel
?
Using
plasma
is
the
best
way
to
achieve
flat
panel
displays
with
excellent
image
quality
and
large
screen
sizes
that
are
easily
viewable.
The
Plasma
Display
Panel
can
be
thought
of
as
a
descendant
of
the
neon
lamp
and
or
a
series
of
fluorescent
lamps.
How
does
it
work?
Plasma
Display
Panel
is
an
array
of
cells,
known
as
pixels,
which
are
comprised
of
three
sub-pixels,
cor-
responding
to
the
colors
red,
green,
and
blue.
Gas
in
a
plasma
state
is
used
to
react
with
phosphors
in
each
sub-pixel
to
produce
colored
light
(red,
green,
or
blue).
These
phosphors
are
the
same
types
used
in
Cathode
Ray
Tube
(CRT)
devices
such
as
televi-
sions
and
common
computer
monitors.
Plasma
Display
Panel
offers
a
rich,
dynamic
display
because
each
sub-pixel
is
individually
controlled
by
advanced
electronics
to
produce
over
16
million
dif-
ferent
colors.
This
means
that
you
get
perfect
images
that
are
easily
viewable
in
a
display
that
is
fewer
than
five
inches
thick.
160°
-
Wide
angle
range
of
vision
Your
flat
panel
plasma
screen
offers
an
exceptionally
broad
viewing
angle
of
over
160
degrees.
This
means
that
the
display
is
clear
and
visible
to
viewers
any-
where
in
the
room.
Wide
Screen
The
wide
screen
offers
a
theater-like
experience
in
your
own
home.
Multimedia
Connect
your
plasma
display
to
a
PC
and
use
it
for
conferencing,
games,
and
Internet
browsing.
The
Picture-in-Picture
feature
allows
you
to
view
your
PC
and
video
images
simultaneously.
Versatile
The
light
weight
and
thin
size
makes
it
easy
to
install
your
plasma
display
in
a
variety
of
locations
where
conventional
TVs
do
not
fit.
The
Plasma
Display
Panel
Manufacturing
Process:
a
few
minute
colored
dots
may
be
present
on
the
Plasma
Display
Panel
screen
The
Plasma
Display
Panel
is
composed
of
0.9
to
2.2
million
cells.
A
few
cell
defects
will
normally
occur
in
the
Plasma
Display
Panel
manufacturing
process.
Several
tiny,
minute
colored
dots
visible
on
the
screen
should
be
acceptable.
This
also
occurs
in
other
Plasma
Display
Panel
manufacturers'
products.
The
tiny
dots
appearing
does
not
mean
that
this
Plasma
Display
Panel
is
defective.
Thus
a
few
cell
defects
are
not
sufficient
cause
for
the
Plasma
Display
Panel
to
be
exchanged
or
returned.
Our
pro-
duction
technology
minimizes
these
cell
defects
dur-
ing
the
manufacture
and
operation
of
this
product.
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
Plasma
Display
Panel
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
Plasma
Display
Panel.
The
fan
noise
doesn't
have
any
negative
effect
on
the
Plasma
Display
Panel's
efficiency
or
reliability.
The
noise
from
these
fans
is
normal
during
the
oper-
ation
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
Plasma
Display
Panel
to
be
exchanged
or
returned.
FOR
LCD
TV
If
the
TV
feels
cold
to
the
touch,
there
may
be
a
small
"flicker"
when
it
is
turned
on.
This
is
normal,
there
is
nothing
wrong
with
TV.
Some
minute
dot
defects
may
be
visible
on
the
screen,
appearing
as
tiny
red,
green,
or
blue
spots.
However,
they
have
no
adverse
effect
on
the
moni-
tor's
performance.
Avoid
touching
the
LCD
screen
or
holding
your
fin-
ger(s)
against
it
for
long
periods
of
time.
Doing
so
may
produce
some
temporary
distortion
effects
on
the
screen.

The
fluorescent
lamp
used
in

tains

of
mercury.

not
dispose

ATTACHING
THE
TV
TO
A
WALL
We
recommend
that
you
set
up
the
TV
close
to
a
wall
so
it
cannot
fall
over
if
pushed
backwards.
Additionally,
we
recommend
that
the
TV
be
attached
to
a
wall
so
it
cannot
be
pulled
in
a
forward
direction,
poten-
tially
causing
injury
or
damaging
the
product.
Caution:
Please
make
sure
that
children
don't
climb
on
or
hang
from
the
TV.
Insert
the
eye-bolts
(or
TV
brackets
and
bolts)
to
tighten
the
product
to
the
wall
as
shown
in
the
picture.
*Insert
the
eye-bolts
and
tighten
them
securely
in
the
upper
holes.
Secure
the
wall
brackets
with
the
bolts
(not
provided
as
parts
of
the
product,
must
purchase
separately
)
on
the
wall.
Match
the
height
of
the
bracket
that
is
mounted
on
the
wall
to
the
holes
in
the
product.
Ensure
the
eye-bolts
or
brackets
are
tightened
securely.
Use
a
sturdy
rope
(not
provided
as
parts
of
the
product,
must
purchase
sepa-
rately)
to
tie
the
product.
It
is
safer
to
tie
the
rope
so
it
becomes
horizontal
between
the
wall
and
the
product.
