1. Getting started: Your plasma display is a 46” WVGA (wide-screen VGA resolution) plasma display. It is ultra slim, high picture quality, super flat and emits no radiation. It has been tested to comply with the EMI Class B, UL and CSA safety standards and is suitable for both commercial and home use. Your plasma display is a highly delicate electronic device. Follow the instructions below to maintain the proper performance of your plasma display.
1.1 Opening the carton: Inside the carton, you will find your plasma display and the standard
accessories. Operational accessories, if any, will be packed in separate boxes.
Your plasma display is about 37kg in weight. As it is quite big, we recommend you to carry it with two people.
The protective glass and glass filter are located on the front of your plasma display. They are fragile and can easily be scratched. Handle with care. Do not place your plasma display with the glass downward, unless protected with soft padding.
Check if your plasma display is damaged and if any accessories are missing from the carton.
Carry your plasma display by the handles located at the back.
1.2 Installing your plasma display: Read this manual carefully before installing your plasma display. This plasma display consumes about 340-350W of electricity, which is
higher than regular CRT TVs. Connect it to an independent power source. If it needs an extension cord, please contact your technicians for an extension cord that can resist higher voltage. Do not use ordinary extension cords to prevent hazards.
Put your plasma display on a flat and solid surface to prevent it from falling . Keep the back of your plasma display away from the wall to ensure good ventilation.
Fumes, moisture and dust will shorten the life of electronic parts. Do not install your plasma display in the kitchen or bathroom.
Install your plasma display with the lower edge level. Improper installation of your plasma display, such as turning it on end, will cause damage to electronic parts due to bad internal ventilation.
Avoid displaying a still picture for a long time to extend the life of your plasma display.
Your plasma display must be installed by your dealer or technicians of our authorized dealers; otherwise, you may not be eligible for our full warranty service.
