•Press and hold the {VOL -} button ON THE PLASMA TV.
•Then press the {INFO} button on the remote control 3 times.

But sadly, it show me below, now I can argue with them!thanks a lot ! Wafer

CODE
time: 00405:15, count: 0000056


QUOTE(wafer @ Dec 11 2013, 10:26 PM)
I can't verify the procedure on ST60 yet as my unit is not delivered. However, I can confirm that similar procedure works for my PV70 plasma.

The mentioned procedure was cut & paste from avforum. It was verified by few ST60 owners!

Just try following the procedure in details. It uses a combination of button on TV as well as buttons on remote control.

I think is good lesson to everyone who going to get a new TV, make sure how to find out the usage hour to avoid being victim.

QUOTE(cucubud @ Dec 12 2013, 09:56 PM)
Glad to hear that everything is settled.

Alvin,

If you really want to go an extra mile in the 1st 100 hours, use Zoom mode to avoid channel logo on top right corner.

Not sure they will cheat me or not, they will handle the warranty extension and email me once complete ...Is there a site to view the info?

QUOTE(cucubud @ Dec 12 2013, 10:37 PM)
Make sure your extended warranty is transferred to the new tv.
