NEC PlasmaSync 50MP1 - Manual (Page 3)

NOTE:
When you connect a computer to this monitor, attach
the supplied ferrite cores. If you do not do this, this
monitor will not comform to mandatory FCC standards.
Attaching the ferrite cores:
Set the ferrite cores on both ends of the DVI cable (not
supplied), and one end of the power cable (supplied).
Close the lid tightly until the clamps click.
Use the band to secure the ferrite core (supplied).

To avoid damage and prolong operating life:
1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply.
Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120 Volts
AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might even cause
a fire hazard.
2. Handle the unit carefully when installing it and do not
drop.
3. Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct
sunlight.
4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small
metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and
have it serviced by an authorized NEC Service Center.
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes
flaws on the surface of the screen.
6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly
recommended to use a trained,authorized NEC dealer.
7. As is the case with any phosphor-based display (like a
CRT monitor, for example) light output will gradually
decrease over the life of a Plasma Display Panel.
Recommendations to avoid or minimize phosphor burn-in
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other gas
plasma displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to
phosphor burn under certain circumstances. Certain
operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a
static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in
phosphor burn if proper precautions are not taken. To protect
your investment in this NEC plasma monitor, please adhere
to the following guidelines and recommendations for
minimizing the occurrence of image burn:
* Always enable and use your computer’s screen saver
function during use with a computer input source.
* Display a moving image whenever possible.
* Change the position of the menu display from time to time.
* Always power down the monitor when you are finished
using it.
If the plasma monitor is in long term use or continuous
operation take the following measures to reduce the
likelihood of phosphor burn:
* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as
possible without impairing image readability.
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations
(i.e. photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light
and dark areas, for example white characters on black
backgrounds. Use complementary or pastel color whenever
possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct,
sharply defined borders between colors.
