• If water is spilt onto the Plasma TV or foreign objects get inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in fi re
or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, please consult your local Panasonic dealer.
Ventilation should not be impleded by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers,
table cloths and curtains.
For suffi cient ventilation;
If using the pedestal (optional accessory), leave a space of at least 10 cm at the top, left and right, at least
6 cm at the bottom, and at least 7 cm at the rear. If using some other setting-up method, leave a space of at
least 10 cm at the top, bottom, left and right, and at least 1.9 cm at the rear of the Plasma TV.
Electromagnetic interference may occur if electronic equipments are placed near each other.
• It will cause interference in image, sound, etc. In particular, keep video equipment away from this product.
Keep unneeded small parts and other objects out of the reach of small children. These objects can be
accidentally swallowed. Also, be careful about packaging materials and plastic sheets.
When using the Plasma TV
The Plasma TV is designed to operate on 220 - 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
• Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat, which can cause fi re or damage to the Plasma TV.
Do not insert any foreign objects into the Plasma TV.
• Do not insert any metal or fl ammable objects into the ventilations holes or drop them onto the Plasma TV, as doing
so can cause fi re or electric shock.
Do not remove the cover or modify it in any way.
• High voltages which can cause severe electric shocks are present inside the Plasma TV. For any inspection,
adjustment and repair work, please contact your local Panasonic dealer.
Ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible.
Securely insert the power supply plug as far as it will go.
• If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated which could cause fi re. If the plug is damaged or the wall
socket plate is loose, do not use them.
Do not handle the power supply plug with wet hands.
• Doing so may cause electric shocks.
Do not do anything that may damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, pull on the plug
body, not the cable.
• Do not damage the cable, make any modifi cations to it, place heavy objects on top of it, heat it, place it near any
hot objects, twist it, bend it excessively or pull it. To do so may cause fi re and electric shock. If the power cable is
damaged, have it repaired at your local Panasonic dealer.
If the Plasma TV is not going to be used for any prolonged length of time, unplug the power supply plug from
the wall outlet.

Safety Precautions
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odour starts to come out
from the Plasma TV, immediately unplug the power supply plug from the wall outlet.
• If you continue to use the Plasma TV in this condition, fi re or electric shock could result. After checking that the
smoke has stopped, contact your local Panasonic dealer so that the necessary repairs can be made. Repairing
the Plasma TV yourself is extremely dangerous, and should never be attempted.
If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes
damages, disconnect the power supply plug immediately.
• A short circuit may occur, which could cause fi re. Contact your local Panasonic dealer for any repairs that need to
be made.
CAUTION
When using the Plasma TV
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma TV.
• Heated air comes out from the ventilation holes at the top of Plasma TV will be hot. Do not bring your hands or
face, or objects which cannot withstand heat, close to this port, otherwise burns or deformation could result.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma TV.
• If the Plasma TV is moved while some of the cables are still connected, the cables may become damaged, and
fi re or electric shock could result.
Disconnect the power supply plug from the wall socket as a safety precaution before carrying out any
cleaning.
• Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it becoming dusty.
• If dust built up on the power supply plug, the resultant humidity can damage the insulation, which could result in
fi re.
Pull the power supply plug out from the wall outlet and wipe the mains lead with a dry cloth.
This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays, therefore it may affect other infrared communication equipment.
Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or refl ected light from your Plasma TV.
Maintenance
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
• If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water to
which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, and 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 fi ngernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may
become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner,
otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
• If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been
added 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 detergent 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. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods
in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.
