Note to CATV System Installer
This reminder is provided to direct the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as
practical.
Secure Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom
are provided for ventilation, and to ensure reliable operation
of the LCD TV and to protect it from overheating. These
openings must not be blocked or covered. There should be
at least 10 cm of space around the TV. The openings should
never be blocked by placing the LCD TV on a bed, sofa, rug or
other similar surface. This
LCD TV should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a
bookcase unless proper ventilation is provided.
Important Safety Instructions (TV set)

2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the
apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving
the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from
tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug
is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
15. Operate only from the type of power source indicated on
the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supplied to your home consult your television dealer or
local power company.
16. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the LCD
TV.
17. Never push objects of any kind into this LCD TV through
cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points
or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the LCD TV.
18. If an outside antenna is connected to the television
equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so
as to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built up static charges. In the U.S. Section 810-21 of
the National Electrical Code provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna
discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location
of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode.

CEA CHILD SAFETY NOTICES
Warning
Flat panel displays are not always supported on the
proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Flat panel displays that are inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers,
chests or carts may fall over and may cause personal injury or
even death.
The consumer electronics industry (of which Panasonic is
a member) is committed to making home entertainment
enjoyable and safe. To prevent personal injury or death, be
sure to follow the following safety guidelines:
TUNE INTO SAFETY:
One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s
•
recommendations for the safe installation and use of your
flat panel display.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for
•
proper use of this product.
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and
•
television sets.
Don’t place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be
•
used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while
•
watching a program, especially on “larger than life” flat
panel displays. Care should be taken to install the display
where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables
•
connected to the flat panel display so that they cannot be
pulled or grabbed by curious children.
WALL MOUNTING:
IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY,
ALWAYS:
Use a mount that has been recommended by the display
•
