Operating this set at higher altitude (lower air pressure) is possible. However, at high altitudes (or local air pressure equal orbelow 800 hPa) the picture on this display may become unstable and picture performance can deteriorate. In addition, the plasma display mayproduce a humming sound in these conditions.These possible adverse effects relate to the altitude and are common of all plasma displays. Once the set is brought below aprox 6562 ft(and/or local air pressure equal or above 800 hPa) its function will most likely return to normal.Note: Transportation at high altitudes has no negative effect on the set or picture performance.How to dispose of batteries?The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmium.
