Batteries

To reveal the battery compartment, remove the back
cover and make sure that you have inserted the
batteries correctly.
The batteries suitable for this remote control are UM-
4, IEC R03 or AAA 1.5V.
Do not mix a used, old battery with a new battery or
do not use mixed battery types.
The performance of the remote control will deteriorate
from a distance farther than 8 metres or out of an
angle of 30 degrees.

Operation Modes

Note that at the beginning of use, the operation mode
should be in full screen format setting especially in
the first 100-150 operation hour (see: Displaying of
the sub-menu, Picture Format). This prevents
differences of brightness on picture areas.
Also, to prevent permanent shadows on the displayed
picture, avoid displaying any still images in the first
operation hours (computer mode, teletext pages,
Photo CD images, etc.). If the plasma television is
to be used as computer monitor, it is recommended
that you use a screen saver.

Computer mode

For the best image, we recommend 848 x 480, 640
x 480 or 720 x 400 pixel resolution. 848x480 pixel
resolution corresponds to the screen matrix and offers
the best image. You can obtain the driver for this
resolution from the Internet pages of well-known
graphic card producers. Unlike the applications in
CRT monitors, for a vibration free presentation on
flat screens, it is not necessary to select high image
reconditioning. 60Hz of reconditioning is
recommended.

Video recorder mode

If your recorder offers  Y/C (S-Video) format playback,
it is recommended to use Y/C (S-Video) inputs to
improve image quality. DVD player mode
For the best use, it is recommended to use RGB
operation mode connectable to SCART 1 input. In
case your player does not offer this operation mode,
please use the Y/C (S Video) signal mode.

Image adherence

The manufacturer would like to state that during
watching frozen pictures (e.g. computer playback)
for long durations, the image remains still visible in
full mask for a few minutes when a different source
is played afterwards. This is known as “image
adherence”. Please note this is normal operation and
not a fault.

Video cable

To connect video signal, high quality 75 Ω coaxial
cable should be used.  A low-quality signal cable
may cause distortions and shadows on the displayed
picture as well as exceeding the permissible EMC
level.  For perfect and safe operation of the device,
mechanical interlocks for single plug and outlet
sockets are necessary.
