Using the remote control
Installing batteries
• Open the battery compartment cover on the back
of the remote control and insert the batteries with
correct polarity, match “+” with “+”, and match “-”
with “-”.
• Install two 1.5V “AAA” alkaline batteries.
Don’t mix used batteries with new batteries.
Notes for using the remote control
Make sure these are no
objects between the
remote control and its
sensor.
Don’t place the remote control
near a heater or damp place.
Strong impact on the remote con-
trol may cause operation failure.
Signal from the remote control
may be disturbed by sun light or
other strong light. In this case,
turn the set to other direction.

Tips
• To avoid picture noise (interference), leave an adequate distance (20 inches or more)
between the VCR and monitor.

- As shown below, when connecting the Monitor to a VCR, match the colors of AV input
jacks on the Monitor with the output jacks on the VCR: Video = yellow, Audio (Left) =
white, Audio (Right) = red.
- If you have a mono VCR, connect the audio cable from the VCR to the AUDIO (L/MONO)
input of the Plasma Monitor.
- If you connect an S-VIDEO VCR to the S-VIDEO input, the picture quality is improved,
compared to connecting a regular VCR to the Video input.
- Avoid having a fixed image remain on the screen for a long period of time. A frozen still
picture from a VCR (or if a CH label is displayed) displayed on the screen for prolonged
periods will result in an image ghost remaining even when you change the image. Avoid
prolonged display of a still image.
