This is a LIMITED WARRANTY as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. Please read it carefully and
retain it with your other important documents.
WHAT IS COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
SERVICE LABOR: Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco Authorized Service Center when needed as a
result of a manufacturing defect for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery to the end user
(excluding the plasma glass panel).
PARTS: (Not including plasma glass panel) Runco will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that
fail due to defects in materials or workmanship for a period of three (3) years from the effective date of delivery
to the end user. Such replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the
original warranty period.
PLASMA GLASS PANEL: Runco will pay for service labor by a Runco Authorized Service Center when needed
as a result of a manufacturing defect for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the end
user. In addition, Runco will provide new or rebuilt replacement parts for the parts that fail due to defects in
materials or workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the effective date of delivery to the end user. Such
replacement parts are then subsequently warranted for the remaining portion (if any) of the original warranty
period.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY:
Image burn-in on plasma display panels are specifically excluded from coverage under this Limited Warranty.
Image burn-in is the result of misuse of the product and therefore cannot be repaired under the terms of this
Limited Warranty.
TO AVOID IMAGE BURN-IN:
Please ensure that still images are left on your plasma display panel for no more than a few minutes. Also ensure
that images displayed in the 4:3 aspect ratio mode (black or gray stripes, but no picture information is present
on the left and right edges of the screen) are used as infrequently as possible. This will prevent permanent image
burns on your plasma display panel, which can be seen permanently under certain conditions once burn-in has
occurred.
The types of images to avoid include video games, still images and computer screens with stationary tool bars
and icons. (This is why computers are equipped with screen savers – to prevent still images from burning into
the monitor’s phosphors after being displayed continuously for an extended period of time).
Normal viewing material such as television/satellite broadcasts, videotape or DVDs (not put into pause for
extended periods of time) will not cause damage to your display under normal conditions. Many DVD players
are also equipped with screen savers for this reason.
