Failure to do so may result in personal injury or equipment damage. Hazardous voltage levels are inside the TV. TV Antenna Connectors Protection External Television Antenna Grounding If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper electrical grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna- discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. Lightning Protection For added protection of any product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the product from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product from lightning and power line surges. Power Lines An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits.
WARNING: When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them could be fatal. Dear HP Customer Welcome to the HP family of customers. We hope that you will have many years of enjoyment from your new Plasma TV.

Keep unneeded small parts and other objects out of the reach of small children. These objects can be accidentally swallowed. Also, be careful about packaging materials and plastic sheets. mb5poetv.book Page 1 Wednesday, June 29, 2005 12:42 PM2 HP Pavilion Plasma TV User’s Guide If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately. ■ A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made. When using the Plasma TV Do not bring your hands, face, or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma TV. ■ Top of the Plasma TV is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the TV could also result in heat damage to the object as well as to the TV if its ventilation holes are blocked. Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma TV. ■ Moving the TV with its cables attached might damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock. Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning. ■ Electric shocks can result if this is not done. Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from becoming dusty. ■ Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase humidity which might damage the insulation and cause fire. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth. This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays; therefore, it may affect other infrared communication equipment. Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or reflected light from your Plasma TV. Cleaning and maintenance The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. ■ Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents, and thinner; otherwise, the quality of the surface may be adversely affected. If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. ■ Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma TV. If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result. ■ Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner; otherwise, the quality of the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.
Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent afterimage to remain on the Plasma TV. Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext, and images displayed in 4:3 mode.
Image Retention Protection: If still image data is displayed for more than a few minutes, the image retention prevention function activates automatically and the image disappears. Change the image or change the input source to see an image. mb5poetv.book Page 2 Wednesday, June 29, 2005 12:42 PMAccessories Accessories 3 Accessories Check that you have the Accessories and items listed in this table Documentation Remote control Pedestal and parts AC cord Cable clamp (2) F-Type antenna adapter (for 5C-2V)
