2. Safety directions

Read and take heed of the safety directions so that when used in compliance with the intended use there is no danger to your health. Installation and connection errors can damage the unit or any devices connected to it. Take heed of the warnings and directions on the unit and in this operating manual. Never allow children to use electrical appliances without supervision.

2.1 Information for your safety

Never operate the display in environmental conditions that differ from the technical specifications in this manual. Differing conditions can cause an electrical hazard, fire or failure of the unit.

Protect the display against moisture. This includes continuous high levels of air humidity, proximity to water, dripping water, spray water and rain. Do not put any vessels that are filled with water, e.g. vases, on the unit. If you connect an external aerial, please ensure that no water can penetrate the cable infeed.

Danger of electric shock and irreparable damage to the unit.

Protect the unit against heat, heat accumulation and direct sunlight. Avoid proximity to fire, heat sources and ovens. Maintain sufficient space above and below the ventilation slits and on the sides away from furniture and the ceiling. Do not drape curtains over the unit.

There is a danger of fire due to overheating.

Mains connection and operator control

The display is completely disconnected from the electrical mains only when the mains switch is switched off and the mains cable is pulled out of the unit or the plug is pulled out of the plug receptacle. Connect the display only to a plug receptacle that has been installed in compliance with regulations with earthing contacts, the mains voltage of which complies with the technical specifications of the unit. Ensure that the mains plug and plug receptacle are accessible at all times.

Differing conditions can cause an electrical hazard, fire or failure of the unit.

Use only the mains cable supplied.

Never remove the plug from the receptacle by pulling the actual mains cable. Avoid laying the mains cable in the vicinity of hot objects.

Danger of fire and electric shock.

If absent for a long period of time or if there is lightning, for safety reasons pull the mains plug out of the receptacle and the building's aerial plug out of the aerial socket.

This is a precautionary measure to prevent a possible fire, avoid damage to the unit and the danger of an electric shock.

Always switch off the display and the signal source before connecting the two units.

Danger of electric shock.

The display is equipped with an attached glass filter plate. If the unit is exposed to an excessive load, e.g. due to shock, vibration, bending or heat shock, the glass surface can break. Do not subject the glass surface to any pressure or knocks. If the glass is cracked, pull out the mains plug immediately and do not touch the fragments with your bare hands.

Danger of injury from sharp-edged glass fragments.

2.2 General information

The display you have purchased meets the highest quality requirements in this product segment and has been checked for pixel defects. Despite taking the greatest care during production of these units, for technological reasons it cannot be excluded absolutely that there are some pixels with defects.

We request your understanding for the fact that such defects, provided that they are within the limits specified by the standard, cannot be considered to be as an appliance defect in the terms of the warranty.

On plasma displays the light emission reduces with increasing usage duration.

Plasma displays operate on the basis of phosphorus. With this technology screen burns can occur under certain conditions. The following are examples of such operating conditions:

• long sustained display of a still image
• constant display of the same background
• use of a format that does not fill the display screen (e.g. 4:3) over a long period of time.

As a rule once screen burns have occurred they cannot be reversed.

To avoid or reduce screen burns please take heed of the following directions and recommendations:

• during the first 100 operating hours mainly moving images or frequently changing still images should be displayed as a full screen
• use your display in full screen format (16:9)
• when using a PC display always activate the screen saver
• display moving images as far as possible
• always switch off the display when it is not being used
• reduce as much as possible the contrast and brightness
• wherever possible display images with lots of colours and colour shades.

Certain conditions can cause your display to hum. The humming generally comes from the mains voltage supply and can occur through the connection of different earth conductors. You can provide a remedy by putting a so-called sheath current filter between the incoming aerial lead and the aerial input socket on the display. Sheath current filters are available in the retail trade in the form of a small inline plug.

For technical reasons the unit can generate noise inside itself. However, this must not exceed the value specified in the appliance specification.

If your display is connected to an external aerial, the latter must be earthed as protection against electric shocks and static charging. The earthing must comply with the valid regulations.

Faults

If the display is damaged, disconnect the mains plug from the plug receptacle.

Pull out the mains plug, if the unit gives off smoke, an unpleasant odour or any unusual noises. Proceed in the same way if the display is no longer able to display an image after switching on or during operation. Do not attempt to continue operating the display in this condition.

Under no circumstances should you open the unit yourself. Inside the display there are no parts that can be serviced or replaced by you. Contact our service hotline or another suitable technical workshop.

Cleaning and care

Before installation, cleaning or care, switch off the unit and pull the mains plug out of the plug receptacle. Wait for several minutes so that the capacitors in the unit can fully discharge, because the display generates a high voltage internally for the gas discharge.

For cleaning use only a slightly moistened soft cloth. You should avoid chemical solvents and cleaning agents because they can damage the surfaces.

Immediately pull out the mains plug, if foreign bodies such as water, other liquids, metal parts etc. get into the display. Never attempt to reach into the unit with any objects or with your hands.

Danger of electric shock.

Batteries

Always take used batteries out of the remote control immediately, because they will leak and can therefore cause damage.

The enclosed batteries must not be charged or reactivated by any other means and must not be taken apart, thrown into fire or short-circuited.

Do not put dead batteries in your household waste. The batteries must be disposed of at collection points provided for this purpose.

Other directions

For ergonomic reasons we recommend that you avoid the use of red or blue fonts or symbols on dark backgrounds. On account of the poor contrast such a display causes poor legibility and causes early eye fatigue. Therefore please use displays that are rich in contrast, e.g. black font on a white background.

To avoid aching eyes and obtain an optimized viewing distance, the distance from the unit should be five to six times the display's diagonal dimension. In your television room it should be so light that you could also read. The contrast is lost with too much brightness. Too little light strains the eyes due to the alternation between light and dark on the display.

When connecting external loudspeakers take heed of the technical specifications of the loudspeaker output. If the loudspeakers are insufficiently dimensioned, the loudspeakers and/or integrated amplifiers can be ruined.

Packing and auxiliary packaging that is no longer required are recyclable and should always be sent for recycling.

3. Overview

The plasma display offers a broad range of connection facilities for PCs, DVD players, video recorders, video cameras, etc.

No matter whether it's a question of television, video or PC images, they all displayed with a very sharp outline and distortion-free on an absolutely flat display surface. And the pictures have an excellent degree of brightness and unusual brilliance. Other important features are the display's large diagonal dimension with a length ratio of 16:9 and a very slim overall depth.

For TV viewing it is necessary to connect the unit to a terrestrial aerial, SAT receiver or cable TV box.

Operator control is interactive via the remote control provided and the on-screen menu (OSD). A wide range of picture quality settings can be effected with these.

A new type of cooling system enables operation of the plasma display without any disturbing fan noise. Being as quiet as a conventional television set the plasma display is excellently suited for living rooms and conference rooms.
