FEATURES OF THIS TV What is a Plasma TV ? Using plasma is the best way to achieve flat panel displays with excellent image quality and large screen sizes that are easily viewable. The Plasma TV can be thought of as a descendant of the neon lamp and or a series of fluorescent lamps. How does it work? Plasma TV is an array of cells, known as pixels, which are comprised of three sub-pixels, corresponding to the colors red, green, and blue. Gas in a plasma state is used to react with phosphors in each sub-pixel to produce colored light (red, green, or blue). These phosphors are the same types used in Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) devices such as televisions and common computer monitors. Plasma TV offers a rich, dynamic display because each sub-pixel is individually controlled by advanced electronics to produce over 16 million different colors. This means that you get perfect images that are easily viewable in a display that is fewer than five inches thick. 160° - Wide angle range of vision Your flat panel plasma screen offers an exceptionally broad viewing angle of over 160 degrees. This means that the display is clear and visible to viewers anywhere in the room. Wide Screen The wide screen offers a theater-like experience in your own home. Versatile The light weight and thin size makes it easy to install your plasma display in a variety of locations where conventional TVs do not fit. The Plasma TV Manufacturing Process: a few minute colored dots may be present on the Plasma TV screen The Plasma TV is composed of 0.9 to 2.2 million cells. A few cell defects will normally occur in the Plasma TV manufacturing process. Several tiny, minute colored dots visible on the screen should be acceptable. This also occurs in other Plasma TV manufacturers' products. The tiny dots appearing does not mean that this Plasma TV is defective. Thus a few cell defects are not sufficient cause for the Plasma TV to be exchanged or returned. Our production technology minimizes these cell defects during the manufacture and operation of this product. Cooling Fan Noise (This feature is not available for all models.) In the same way that a fan is used in a PC computer to keep the CPU (Central Processing Unit) cool, the Plasma TV is equipped with cooling fans to cool the Monitor and improve its reliability. Therefore, a certain level of noise could occur while the fans are operating and cooling the Plasma TV. The fan noise doesn't have any negative effect on the Plasma TV's efficiency or reliability. The noise from these fans is normal during the operation of this product. We hope you understand that a certain level of noise from the cooling fans is acceptable and is not sufficient cause for the Plasma TV to be exchanged or returned. FOR LCD TV I If the TV feels cold to the touch, there may be a small "flicker" when it is turned on. This is normal, there is nothing wrong with TV. I Some minute dot defects may be visible on the screen, appearing as tiny red, green, or blue spots. However, they have no adverse effect on the monitor's performance. I Avoid touching the LCD screen or holding your figer(s) against it for long periods of time. Doing so may produce some temporary distortion effects on the screen. On Disposal a.
