■Set up

This Plasma TV may fall and can cause personal injury or

even death if not installed correctly. To prevent personal injury or death, follow these warnings:

Install the Plasma TV in accordance with the

●

manufacturer’s recommended pedestal or stand, corresponding hardware and installation instructions.

This Plasma TV is for use only with the following

optional accessories. Use with any other type of optional accessories may cause instability. The following accessories are manufactured by Panasonic Corporation.

• Wall-hanging bracket (Angled) TY-WK4P1RW

Be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out the

●

installation and set-up.

Two or more people are required to install or remove the

television.

WARNING/CAUTION (TV set)

Some wall mounts (wall-hanging brackets) are not

●

designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block constructions.

Ask your dealer or licensed contractor to properly secure

the wall-hanging bracket.

Do not route the TV’s power cord inside the wall.

●

The power cord was not designed for in-wall mounting.

Doing so can lead to fire hazard.

Do not place the Plasma TV or its stand on a sloped or

●

unstable surface.

The Plasma TV may fall or tip over.

Do not support the Plasma TV on a non-specified

●

pedestal. Do not place the Plasma TV on furniture that can easily

●

be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. Do not climb or allow children to climb on the Plasma TV

●

Place or install the Plasma TV where it cannot be

●

pushed, pulled over or knocked down. Route all cords and cables such that they cannot be

●

tripped over or pulled by curious children. Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma TV.

●

If water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign objects get

inside it, a short-circuit may occur, which could result in fire or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, please consult an Authorized Service Center.

In the unlikely event that you receive a shock from this

●

product, it is possible that your household outlet may be wired improperly.

Have an electrician verify that the TV’s outlet is properly

wired. If the symptom persists, have the TV serviced by a qualified authorized technician.

●

or other open flames away from this product at all times

■AC Power Supply Cord

To prevent fire or electric shock:

The Plasma TV is designed to operate on a 120 V AC,

●

60 Hz service. Insert the power cord plug as far as it will go into the wall socket.

If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may generate, which

could cause a fire.

The included power cord is for use with this unit only.

●

Do not use any power cord other than that provided

●

with this TV. Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.

●

Do not do anything that might damage the power

●

supply cord. When disconnecting the power supply cord, hold the

●

plug, not the cord. Do not use the power supply cord if the plug or cord is

●

damaged.

Replace the cord or contact your Authorized Service Center.

Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong AC plug adapters to

●

connect your TV’s plug to the wall outlet.

Doing so will defeat the TV plug’s safety feature, which

can lead to a shock hazard. If the wall outlet does not accommodate a 3-prong plug, have a qualified electrician replace your outlet and check the associated wiring.

■Handling the power supply cord

Insert the power plug fully into the socket outlet. (If the

●

power plug is loose, it could generate heat and cause fire.) Ensure that the power plug is easily accessible.

●

Ensure the earth pin on the power plug is securely

●

connected to prevent electrical shock.

• An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a power socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand. (This may

●

cause electrical shock.) Do not use any power cord other than that provided

●

with this TV. (This may cause fire or electrical shock.) Do not damage the power cord. (A damaged cord may

●

cause fire or electrical shock.)

• Do not move the TV with the cord plugged in the socket outlet.

• Do not place a heavy object on the cord or place the cord near a high-temperature object.

• Do not twist the cord, bend it excessively, or stretch it.

• Do not pull on the cord. Hold onto the power plug body when disconnecting cord.

• Do not use a damaged power plug or socket outlet.

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound),

●

or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma TV, unplug the power supply cord immediately.

Continued use of the TV under these conditions might

cause a fire or permanent damage to the TV. Have the TV evaluated by an Authorized Service Center. Servicing of the TV by unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its high voltage.

If water or an object gets inside the Plasma TV, if the

●

Plasma TV is dropped, or if the enclosure becomes damaged, unplug the power supply cord immediately.

Viewing 3D images on TV

Precautions for Viewing 3D Images

Cautions During Viewing

Do not use devices that emit strong electromagnetic waves (such as cellular phones or personal transceivers) near the

3D Eyewear. Doing so may cause the 3D Eyewear to malfunction.

If the 3D Eyewear is used in a room in which fluorescent lights (50 Hz) are used, the light within the room may appear

to flicker. In this case, either darken or switch off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D Eyewear.

Wear the 3D Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not appear correctly if the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or back-to-front.

For comfortable viewing

View from at least the recommended distance (3 times the effective height of the screen),

Recommended Distance:

For a 42-inch television, 5.25’ (1.6 m) or more. For a 50-inch television, 6.23’ (1.9 m) or more. When the top and bottom area of the screen are blackened, such as when playing movies, view the screen at a distance 3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That makes the viewing distance closer than above recommended distance.)

Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels unusual.

In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D Eyewear may cause an allergic reaction.

Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you experience any redness, pain, or itching on the nose or temples.

Prolonged use may cause such symptoms due to excess pressure, which may result in the user feeling unwell.

Use the 3D Eyewear where there is no interference from other devices with Bluetooth® signals.

Viewing 3D images

The following 3D content can be enjoyed on this TV:

• A 3D Blu-ray disc, played on 3D capable Blu-ray player/recorder that is connected via HDMI cable.

• 3D TV broadcast (program)

• 3D Photo and 3D Movie taken by LUMIX/Camcorder.

• 3D game played on 3D capable video game console, connected via HDMI cable.

• 2D->3D (Simulated 3D) (p. 41) Optional Accessories (p. 8) *

For more detail on usage of 3D Eyewear (Power button, Accessories and how to register, etc.), please refer to operating

manuals for the purchased 3D Eyewear. 3D experience differs depending on the type of 3D Eyewear.

Using the 3D Eyewear

Turn on the 3D Eyewear Make sure that registration is finished completely.

Put on the 3D Eyewear

Viewing 3D images

When the TV receives a 3D signal, it also tries to detect the 3D mode (format). 3D images are automatically displayed according to the signal. If the 3D images are not displayed correctly, or if the images cause discomfort, the images can be adjusted by “3D format select” or “3D settings”.

Change the view 3D⇔2D, 3D settings (p.19)

●

After Use

Turn off the 3D Eyewear. After using the 3D Eyewear, store it in the case.

Safety precautions Displays message for viewing 3D images.

* The perceived three dimensional effects of the 3D Eyewear differ from person-to-person. * If a signal received from an external device is different from the 3D setting of the TV, such as 2D signal when the TV is set to

3D mode, the images may not be displayed correctly.

Auto 2: Same as Auto 1, plus it detects 3D signal by identifying similar image in side-by-side or

top-and-bottom 3D formats.

Note: Choose 3D mode manually when auto detection is not available. (Off/Auto 1/Auto 2) On: Displays a message according to the signal received by the “Auto detect 3D”. (Off/On) Adjusts 3D depth. Available only when “2D->3D” is selected in “3D format select”.

Care and Cleaning

First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.

Display panel

The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lintfree cloth.

If the surface is particularly dirty, after cleaning up the dust, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in diluted mild liquid dish soap (1 part mild

●

liquid dish soap diluted by 100 times the amount of water), and then wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface of the display panel, then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type until the surface is dry. Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile

●

substances such as insect sprays, solvents, and thinner; otherwise, the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.

Cabinet

If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in diluted mild liquid dish soap and then wring the cloth dry.

●

Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth. Do not allow any mild liquid dish soap to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma TV.

●

If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result. Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents, and thinner; otherwise, the quality of the cabinet surface

●

may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Do not let articles made from rubber or PVC be in contact with the TV for long periods of time.

●

Questions Answers

Why doesn’t my 3D video source looks 3D?

3D Other

When selecting some 3D video content, why are there two pictures next to each other?

1. Begin playing the 3D video source.

2. Ensure that the Panasonic 3D Eyewear (glasses) are on (check the glasses battery)

3. Press “3D” button directly or press the VIERA TOOLS button on the TV’s remote control and select “3D”

4. In the “3D format select” menu, select “3D”.

3D Blu-ray discs must be played with a 3D capable Blu-ray player.

Check with your Cable or Satellite provider if their supplied box is 3D capable.

3. 3D signal must be connected to the TV via an HDMI cable.

Use Panasonic 3D Eyewear supporting Bluetooth wireless technology. There are a few different 3D formats and the current setting may

not match the incoming 3D signal. The format should change automatically, but depending on the source/connection it may not signal the TV properly. To manually select other 3D formats:

1. Press “3D” button directly or press VIERA TOOLS button on the TV’s remote control and select “3D”

2. In the “3D format select” menu, choose another 3D format such as “Side by side” or “Top and bottom”.

3. Remember to switch the 3D format setting back to “AUTO” when you go back to viewing a standard 2D signal.

Why does the left and right sides of the image seem reversed?

Can I use 3D glasses similar to the kind given at a 3D movie theater to watch 3D content on my 3D TV?

What is the easiest and best way to connect a High-Definition Cable or Satellite box to the TV?

Why does the CC button not display Closed Caption?

Why does the screen and back cover of the TV get warm?

Why doesn’t the Remote Control work?

signal in HD. HDMI cable is the only cable needed to connect an HD device to the TV.

When viewing TV via an HDMI connected device, such as a

Cable or Satellite box, CC must be enabled at the device.

Closed Caption is available only at supported TV

programming.

The main unit radiates heat and some of the parts may

become hot. This is normal operation and does not affect the performance of the set.

Ensure good ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes of the TV and do not place

the TV on top of other equipment.

Check that the batteries are fresh, are of the same type and

are installed with the correct polarity (+ & -).

The decision to repair, replace or refund will be made by the warrantor.

During the “Labor” Limited Warranty period there will be no charge for labor. During the “Parts” Limited Warranty period, there will be no charge for parts. You must carry-in your product or arrange for on-site service during the Limited Warranty period. If non-rechargeable batteries are included, they are not warranted. This Limited Warranty only applies to products purchased and serviced in the United States or Puerto Rico. This Limited 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 Limited Warranty service.

On-Site or Carry-in Service

For On-Site or Carry-In Service in the United States and Puerto Rico call 1-877-95-VIERA (1-877-958-4372). On-site service where applicable requires clear, complete and easy access to the product by the authorized servicer and

does not include removal or re-installation of an installed product. It is possible that certain on-site repairs will not be completed on-site, but will require that the product or parts of the product, at the servicer’s discretion be removed for shop diagnosis and/or repair and then returned.

INCLUDING THE LIMITED 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 Limited Warranty lasts, so the exclusions may not apply to you.

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have others rights which vary from state to state. If a problem with this product develops during or after the Limited Warranty period, you may contact your dealer or Service Center. If the problem is not handled to your satisfaction, then write to the warrantor’s Consumer Affairs Department at the addresses listed for the warrantor.
