Safety Precautions

Warning

Handling the mains plug and lead

Insert the mains plug fully into the socket outlet. (If the mains plug is loose, it could generate heat and cause fire.)

Ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible.

Ensure the earth pin on the mains plug is securely connected to prevent electrical shock.

Do not touch the mains plug with a wet hand. (This may cause electrical shock.)

Do not use any mains lead other than that provided with this TV. (This may cause fire or electrical shock.)

Do not damage the mains lead. (A damaged lead may cause fire or electrical shock.)

Do not move the TV with the lead plugged in the socket outlet.

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

Do not twist the lead, bend it excessively, or stretch it.

Do not pull on the lead. Hold onto the mains plug body when disconnecting lead.

Do not use a damaged mains plug or socket outlet.

If you find any abnormality, remove the mains plug immediately!

AC 220 - 240 V

50 / 60 Hz

Power source / Installation

This TV is designed for:

AC 220 - 240 V, 50 / 60 Hz

Indoor use

Do not remove covers and NEVER modify the TV yourself

Do not remove the rear cover as live parts are accessible when it is removed. There are no user serviceable parts inside. (Highvoltage components may cause serious electrical shock.)

Have the TV checked, adjusted, or repaired at your local Panasonic dealer.

Do not expose to rain or excessive moisture

To prevent damage which might result in electric shock or fire, do not expose this TV to rain or excessive moisture. This TV must not be exposed to dripping or splashing water and objects filled with liquid, such as vases, must not be placed on top of or above the TV.

 

Do not expose to direct sunlight and

 

other sources of heat

 

Avoid exposing the TV to direct sunlight and

 

other sources of heat. To prevent fire never

4

place any type of candle or naked flame on

top or near the TV.

 

Do not insert foreign objects into the TV

Do not allow any objects to drop into the TV through the air vents. (Fire or electrical shock may result.)

Do not place the TV on sloped or unstable surfaces

The TV may fall off or tip over.

Use only the dedicated pedestals / mounting equipment

Using an unapproved pedestal or other fixtures may make the TV unstable, risking injury. Be sure to ask your local Panasonic dealer to perform setup.

Use approved pedestals (p. 6) / wall-hanging brackets (p. 7).

Do not allow children to handle SD Card

As with any small object, SD Cards can be swallowed by young children. Please remove SD Card immediately after use and store out of reach of children.

Important Installation Notices

Install TV on a stable surface

If a television is not positioned in a sufficiently stable location, it can be potentially hazardous due to falling. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television.

Only using furniture that can safely support the television.

Ensuring the television is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

Not placing the television on tall furniture (for example, cupboards or bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television to a suitable support.

Not standing the televisions on cloth or other materials placed between the television and supporting furniture.

Educating children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television or its controls.

When cleaning the TV, remove the mains plug

Cleaning an energized TV may cause electrical shock.

When the TV is not going to be used for a long period of time, remove the mains plug

This TV will still consume some power even in the Off mode, as long as the mains plug is still connected to a live socket outlet.

Transport only in upright position

Transporting the TV with its display panel facing upward or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

Allow sufficient space around the TV for radiated heat

10

 

 

When using the pedestal, keep a space between the bottom

 

10

 

of the TV and the surface where the TV is set.

In case of using Wall-hanging bracket, follow the manual of it.

(cm)

Minimum distance

Do not block the rear air vents

Blocked ventilation by newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc. may cause overheating, fire or electrical shock.

Do not apply strong force or impact to the display panel

This may cause damage resulting in injury.

Do not expose your ears to excessive volume from the headphones

Irreversible damage can be caused.

The TV is heavy. Handle the TV by 2 or more people.

Support as shown to avoid injury by the TV tipping or falling.

Auto power standby function

If no signal is received and no operation is performed in Analogue TV mode for 30 minutes, the

TV will automatically go to standby mode.

Keep the TV away from these types of equipment

Electronic equipment

In particular, do not place video equipment near the TV. Electromagnetic interference may distort images / sound.

Equipment with an infrared sensor

This TV also emits infrared rays. This may affect operation of other equipment.

Do not display a still picture for a long time

 

This causes the image to remain on the plasma screen (“image retention”).

 

This is not considered a malfunction and is not covered by the warranty.

 

Typical still images

 

Programme number and other logos

To prevent image retention, contrast is lowered automatically after a few minutes if no signals are

 

sent or no operations are performed. (p. 75)

Do not use the pedestal if it becomes warped or physically damaged.

If you use the pedestal while it is physically damaged, personal injury may result. Contact your nearest Panasonic dealer immediately.

During set-up, make sure that all screws are securely tightened.

personal injury may result.

Ensure that the TV does not fall over.

If the TV is knocked or children climb onto the pedestal with the TV installed, the TV may fall over and personal injury may result.

Two or more people are required to install and remove the TV.

If two or more people are not present, the TV may be dropped, and personal injury may result.

Optional accessories

Guide

Quick Start

Please contact your nearest Panasonic dealer to purchase the recommended optional accessories.

For additional details, please refer to the manual of the optional accessories.

Wireless LAN Adaptor DY-WL10E-K

To use the Wireless LAN Adaptor, your network needs to have a Wireless Access Point.

It is recommended to use the Wireless LAN Adaptor with the extension cable.

To avoid radio wave interface, keep the TV away from the devices such as other

wireless LAN devices, microwaves and the devices that use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals when using the Wireless LAN Adaptor. Otherwise malfunction may occur.

This optional accessory may not be available in your market region.

Additional information for Wireless LAN Adaptor and Wireless Access Point may be found at the following web site. (English only) http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/tv/

Holes for wall-hanging bracket installation

Using other wall-hanging brackets, or installing a wall-hanging bracket by yourself have the risk

of personal injury and product damage. In order to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be

 

absolutely sure to ask your dealer or a licensed contractor to secure the wall-hanging brackets. Any

 

damage caused by installing without a qualified installer will void your warranty.

 

Carefully read the instructions accompanying optional accessories, and be absolutely sure to take

 

steps to prevent the TV from falling off.

 

Handle the TV carefully during installation since subjecting it to impact or other forces may cause

 

product damage.

 

Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or

 

pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.

To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use.

Basic Connection
