    WARNING 
    The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning 
    cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
    •  If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water in which 
    neutral detergent has been diluted 100 times, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type until the surface 
    is dry.
    •  Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fi ngernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may become 
    damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise 
    the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
    If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
    •  If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added 
    and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
    • Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma Display. If water droplets get 
    inside the unit, operating problems may result.
    •  Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the cabinet
