1) Exercise care when selecting the location for the display because it may discolor or deform due to light

or heat if it is placed where it is exposed to direct sunlight, or near a heater.

2) For cleaning, wipe the display using a soft dry cloth (made of cotton or flannel). If the unit is extremely

soiled, first wipe off soiling with a neutral detergent diluted in water, and then wipe with a dry cloth. Do not use cleaners such as benzene, thinner or furniture wax because they may cause paint peeling. (For information on cleaning the plasma display, see the plasma display’s instruction manual. If using a chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions supplied with the cloth.)

3) Do not affix adhesive tape or stickers to the product. Doing so may dirty the surface of the mobile

stand. Do not allow long-term contact with rubber, vinyl products or the like. (Doing so will cause deterioration.)

4) The panel of the plasma display is glass. Do not subject it to a strong force or impact.

Precautions for mobile stand assembly and setup work ● To ensure correct plasma display performance and prevent trouble, do not fit at any of the following locations.

• Near sprinklers or fire/smoke detectors

• Where there is a risk of exposure to vibration or impact

• Near high-voltage wires or dynamic power supplies

• Near sources of magnetism, heat, water vapor or soot

• Locations exposed to air blown from heating equipment

• Where droplets of condensation from an air conditioner or other unit may form ● For the plasma display power supply plug, use a power supply outlet that can be reached easily. ● Ensure good air flow so that the ambient temperature does not exceed 40 °C (104 °F). Failure to do this may cause heat to build up inside the plasma display, resulting in malfunction. ● Fit so there is no contact between the attachment bolts or power cord and any metal inside the wall. ● Spread a soft blanket or cloth over the floor so that the stand and floor will not be marked or scratched during the assembly and installation work. ● Perform the assembly and installation work on a flat and level surface, and follow the assembly and installation work instructions. ● When screwing down the parts, ensure that the screws are neither insufficiently tightened nor over tightened. ● Take sufficient care to ensure safety around you when performing the assembly and installation work or while moving about during the course of the work. ● Be sure to read and observe the “Safety precautions”.
