Important Information Regarding The Use Of Video Games, Computers, Or Other Fixed Image Displays

WARNING: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from viewing a fixed image is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty.

This television is designed to display constantly moving images on the screen. Continuous viewing of stationary images such as letterbox pictures on standard screen TVs (with top/bottom bars), nonexpanded standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs (with side bars shown on each side of an image), stock market report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the screen), video game patterns, fixed scoreboards, bright station logos, on-line (Internet) or repetitive computer style patterns should be limited.

The extended use of fixed image program material can cause permanent picture tube damage, shown as a “shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This type of irreversible picture tube deterioration can be limited by performing the following steps:

•Do not display the fixed image for extended periods of time.

•Turn the power off when not in use.

Read these instructions completely before operating television.

REMOTE CONTROL OPERATION

Programming The Remote Control

The Universal Remote Control can be programmed to operate many manufacturers’ components, using the component function buttons for VCR, DVD, CABLE or DBS. Follow the procedures for programming your Remote Control with or without a code for the component.

Device		Operates		Default
TV		TV (Panasonic Only)		Panasonic Code
VCR		VCR (Preset)		Panasonic Code
DBS/CBL		DBS STB & CBL STB (Preset)		Panasonic DBS Code
DVD		DVD (Preset)		Panasonic Code

Note: Determine the manufacturer of the component and look in the table for the code (found on page 10).

Procedure

1.Confirm that the external component is plugged in and operating.

2.Turn the component off.

ACTION

3. Press

and POWER together, for at least 5

seconds. After 5 seconds, the illuminated mode (component) buttons will begin to flash. Release the ACTION and POWER buttons.

4.Press appropriate component button on the Remote Control VCR, DVD, CABLE or DBS. The component button will illuminate steadily and all others will go out.

5.Enter the 3-digit component code using the Remote Control numeric keypad (0 ~ 9 buttons). The component button will blink twice.

6.Press the Remote Control POWER to test the

component. If the procedure was successful, the component will turn on and the component key will blink twice and then go out.

Note: If the component does not operate with the Remote Control, repeat steps 3 through 6 using another code (some brands have multiple codes). If an incorrect code is entered, or if the procedure takes longer than 30 seconds, the programming will fail.

Programming Without A Code

This procedure searches all codes and is called the “sequence method.”

1.Confirm that the external component is plugged in and on.

2.Turn the component off.

ACTION

3. Press

and POWER together, for at least 5

seconds. After 5 seconds, the illuminated mode (component) buttons will begin to flash. Release the ACTION and POWER buttons.

4.Press the appropriate component button on the Remote Control. The component button will illuminate steadily and all others will go out.

5. Press the POWER button to set the remote control into the step and set mode.

6.Point the remote control towards the component.

7.Press VOL (the mode key will blink three times), then press the Remote Control POWER button to test the

component. Continue this process until the proper code is found. If the procedure was successful, the component will turn on.

Note: Each time you press the VOL button, make sure that the component key blinks twice before pressing the POWER button.

8.	ACTION		to store the
	Once the device responds, press			ENGLISH
	code. The mode (component) button will blink twice.
Note:	It may take many attempts before	the	correct code
	is found. If you miss a code, press	VOL, then press
	the POWER button to test the component.

Component Codes

The Universal Remote Control is capable of operating many component brands after entering a code. Some components may not operate because the codes are not available due to limited memory. The Universal Remote Control does not control all features found in each model.

Write the code numbers from tables in this space. This will serve as a reference if you need to program your Remote Control.
