RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

This symbol warns the user
that uninsulated voltage
within the unit may have
suffi cient magnitude to
cause electric shock.
Therefore, it is dangerous
to make any kind of contact
with any inside part of this
unit.

Note to CATV System Installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifi es that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fi re, injury to persons or damage to this product:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)

15) Because the temperature of the lamp unit is elevated immediately after its use, a direct touch to it may cause burns. Replace
the lamp unit only after it has cooled.

WARNING

AS WITH ANY SMALL OBJECT, SD CARDS CAN BE SWALLOWED BY YOUNG CHILDREN. DO NOT ALLOW
CHILDREN TO HANDLE THE SD CARD.

CAUTION

(1) This projection display is intended to be used with the following TV stand: model TY-50LC13C for the PT-50LC13.

Use with other stands may result in the projection display becoming unstable, possibly causing injury.

(2) This projection display should not be exposed to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures or moisture, as this can

result in serious irreparable damage.

(3) This product has a High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamp that contains a small amount of mercury. It also contains

lead in some components.
Disposal of these materials may be regulated in your community due to environmental considerations.
For disposal or recycling information please contact your local authorities, or the Electronics Industries Alliance:
<http://www.eiae.org.

>

The lamp has a maximum life of about 10 000 hours.
If use exceeds this fi gure, the possibility of lamp damage becomes greater.
The lamp should be changed as soon as possible once the lamp warning message appears.
If the lamp is damaged, please contact your nearest dealer.

Due to the characteristics and use conditions of in di vid u al lamps, the lamp may cease to light before the
stated lamp life.
Infl uences of fre quent light ing, continuous light use for over 24 hours, the number of times lit, the length of
time between lightings, etc. may shorten lamp life.
(Because of this, we recommend having a replacement lamp on hand.)

Before Using

Receiver Location

This projection display is intended to be used with an optional stand or entertainment center. Consult your dealer for
available options.
Locate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or other bright light (including refl ections) will fall on the
screen.
Use of some types of fl uorescent lighting can reduce remote control transmitter range.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or
moisture.

Optional External Equipment

The Video / Audio connection between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best
performance, video cables should utilize 75 Ω coaxial shielded cables. Cables are available from your dealer or
electronic supply house.
Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and input connectors your various
com po nents require. Also determine the length of cable you’ll need.

Safety Precaution

Please take safety precautions to prevent the unit from
falling over.

WARNING

The unit may tip or fall if not situated on a stable
surface, if pushed or during an earthquake. Use a
strong rope or chain (not included) to fasten the
projection display fi rmly to a strong wall support.

Viewing position

To optimize your viewing comfort, please follow the viewing guidelines shown in the diagrams below.
If viewing for an extended period of time, sit as far back from the screen as possible.

Notes on con nec tions

• Turn off the power supply for all com po nents before making any connections.

• If the cables necessary for connecting a component to the system are not included with the component or available as an
option, you may need to fashion a cable to suit the component concerned.

• Read the instruction manual for each system component care ful ly before connecting it.

• If there is a lot of jitter in the video signal input from the video source, the picture on the screen may fl icker. In this case, it will
be necessary to connect a TBC (time base corrector).

Notes:

• Input signals, other than those listed with a * mark, will give you a beautiful, stable picture.

• The D-SUB15P connector can accept RGB (H-V sync separate) and RGB (sync on green). However, it is not guaranteed to
display stable color when using RGB (sync on green).

• When used with an external video processor/scaler, it must have RGB (H-V sync separate) output.

• A “♦” mark indicates signals that can be input with DIGITAL IN.

• If your PC (with DIGITAL IN terminal) does not support Plug-and-Play (DDC1/2B) for displays, reconfi guration is required after
the projection display is connected to the PC.

• Only JPEG images can be displayed on this projection display.

Card Data Protection

• Do not remove the card while it is being accessed.

• Do not touch the terminals on the back of the SD Card/PC Card.

• Electrical interference, electrostatic discharges and malfunctions of the unit or card may all result in damage to the card or

If your product does not work properly because of a defect in materials or workmanship, Panasonic Consumer
Electronics Company or Panasonic Sales Company (collectively referred to as “the warrantor”) will, for the length of
the period indicated on the chart below, which starts with the date of original purchase (“warranty period”), at its

During the “Labor” warranty period there will be no charge for labor. During the “Parts” warranty period, there will be
no charge for parts. You must carry-in your product or arrange for in-home service during the warranty period. If
non-rechargeable batteries are included, they are not warranted. This warranty only applies to products purchased
and serviced in the United States or Puerto Rico. This warranty is extended only to the original purchaser of a new
product which was not sold “as is”. A purchase receipt or other proof of the original purchase date is required for
warranty service.

repair and then returned.

Limited Warranty Limits And Exclusions

This warranty ONLY COVERS failures due to defects in materials or workmanship, and DOES NOT COVER normal

WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, ARE LIMITED TO THE PERIOD OF
THE LIMITED WARRANTY.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the exclusions may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specifi c legal rights and you may also have other rights, which vary, from state to state. If a
problem with this product develops during or after the warranty period, you may contact your dealer or Servicenter. If
the problem is not handled to your satisfaction, then write to the warrantor's Consumer Affairs Department at the
