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

Minimum distance

●

When using the pedestal, keep the space between the bottom of the TV and the surface where the TV is set.

●

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

10 7

(cm)

Do not block the rear air vents

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

●

Do not expose your ears to excessive volume from the headphones

Irreversible damage can be caused.

●

Display panel is made of glass. Do not apply strong force or impact to the display panel.

This may cause damage resulting in injury.

●

The TV is heavy. Handle the TV by 2 or more people. Support as shown to avoid injury by the TV tipping or falling.

●

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

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.

VIERA Link “ Control

”

Enjoy additional HDMI interoperability with Panasonic products which have “HDAVI Control” function. This TV supports “HDAVI Control 4” function. Connections to the equipment (DIGA Recorder, HD Video Camera, Player theatre, Amplifier, etc.) with HDMI cable allow you to interface them automatically. These features are limited to models incorporating “HDAVI Control” and “VIERA Link”.

Some functions are not available depending on the equipment’s version of HDAVI Control. Please confirm the

●

connected equipment’s version of HDAVI Control.

●

VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control functions provided by HDMI which is an industry standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have developed and added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed.

●

Please refer to individual manuals for the equipments. About applicable Panasonic equipment, consult your local Panasonic dealer.

HDMI Functions

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and highquality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment. HDMI-compatible equipment (∗1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box, a DVD player or a game equipment, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. About connections, see “External Equipment” (p. 42).

Note

HDMI is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.

●

Audio settings can be made on the “HDMI1 / 3 Input” menu screen. (p. 23)

●

Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (2ch L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz

●

HDMI2 terminal is for digital audio signal only.

●

Use with a PC is not guaranteed. Only HDMI video formats in the HDMI table (p. 47) are applicable.

●

If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to “16:9”.

●

These HDMI connectors are “type A”.

●

These HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright

●

protection. An equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either “COMPONENT”,

●

“S-VIDEO”, or “VIDEO” to receive analogue signals. The HDMI input terminal can be used only with the following image signals:

●

480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. Match the output setting of the digital equipment. For details of the applicable HDMI signals, see p. 47.

●

DVI connection

If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI1 / 3 terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter

●

cable (∗2).

●

When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal (HDMI1: use AV2 IN AUDIO terminals / HDMI3: use AV3 IN AUDIO terminals).

DVI Position Settings

If the picture position is not fit to the screen during the DVI connection, adjust the position on “DVI Position Settings” in Setup Menu. The settings are memorized for each HDMI terminals and input signals.
