When using the Plasma Display

Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma Display.

• Top of the Plasma Display is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the display could also result in heat damages to the object as well as to the Display if its ventilation holes are blocked.

Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma Display.

• Moving the Display with its cables attached might

damage the cables which, in turn, can cause ﬁ re or electric shock.

Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet 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 from becoming dusty.

• Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase humidity which might damage the insulation and cause ﬁ re. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth.

This Plasma Display 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 Display.

Note:

Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent image retention to remain on the Plasma Display. Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in NORMAL mode.

Safety Precautions / Maintenance

WARNING

Setup

Do not place the Plasma Display on sloped or unstable surfaces.

• The Plasma Display may fall off or tip over.

Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma Display.

• If water spills onto the Plasma Display 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 Display, please consult an Authorized Service Center.

Do not cover the ventilation holes.

• Doing so may cause the Plasma Display to overheat, which can cause fire or damage to the Plasma Display.

Transport only in upright position!

• Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

If using the pedestal (optional accessory), leave a space of 3

15/16” (10 cm) or more at the top, left and right, 2 3/8”

(6 cm) or more at the bottom, and 2 3/4” (7 cm) or more at the rear. If using some other setting-up method, leave a space of 3 15/16” (10 cm) or more at the top, bottom, left and right, and 2 3/4” (7 cm) or more at the rear.

AC Power Supply Cord

The Plasma Display is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 50/60 Hz.

Do not use any power supply cord other than that provided with this unit.

• Doing so may cause ﬁ re or electric shocks.

Securely insert the power cord 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, they should not be used.

Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.

• Doing so may cause electric shocks.

Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.

• Do not make any modiﬁ cations, place heavy objects on, place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully pull the power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable which can cause ﬁ re or electric shock. If damage to the cable is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.

If the Plasma Display will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

If problems occur during use

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma Display, unplug the power cord immediately.

• Continuous use of the Display under these conditions might cause ﬁ re or permanent damage to the unit. Have the Display evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Services to the Display by any unauthorized personnel are strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma Display, if the Plasma Display is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.

• A short may occur, which could cause ﬁ re. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.

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 in which neutral detergent has been diluted 100 times, 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 Display. 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.

When viewing such programs, it is recommended that the ASPECT be set to NORMAL.

• If adjusting the PICTURE V-POS/V-SIZE in Panasonic AUTO with FULL mode, the adjustment is not memorized. When exiting the mode, the screen will return to a former adjustment.

• Panasonic AUTO can not be selected while equivalent board of BNC Dual Video Terminal Board (TY-FB9BD) is installed.

• POWER SAVE: When this function is turned ON, luminous level of the Plasma Display is suppressed, so power consumption is reduced.

• STANDBY SAVE: When this function is turned ON, power consumption of the microcomputer is reduced during power supply standby (see page 13-15), so standby power of the set is reduced.

• POWER MANAGEMENT: The unit power supply is turned ON or OFF depending on whether or not there is a signal during PC input mode.

This function is enabled when it is turned ON. (Only during input from PC(Mini D-sub)

terminal)

• AUTO POWER OFF: Equipment power supply is turned OFF when there is no signal.

When this is set to On, the power supply of the unit goes Off 10 minutes after the input

LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT

Panasonic Canada Inc. (also known as PCI) warrants this product to be free of defects in material and workmanship under normal use during the applicable warranty coverage period described below. PCI agrees to repair, or at its option, exchange, any part that becomes defective. However, the product must be purchased and serviced in Canada. The product or part that shows evidence of defect must be delivered prepaid or carried in to an authorized Panasonic Broadcast Service Center. This warranty does not cover shipping costs.

The warranty coverage period is one year for both parts and labour beginning with the date of original end user purchase, subject to the exceptions as stated below. Repaired or replacement parts supplied during the warranty coverage period carry the unexpired portion of the original warranty coverage period. Proof of product purchase is a condition of warranty service. The owner must produce the product purchase receipt or other satisfactory evidence of date of original purchase.

This warranty does not apply to external appearance items, such as handles, knobs, safety windows, etc. This warranty does not apply to any part, or parts, of the product, installed, altered, repaired or misused in any way that, in the opinion of PCI, affects the reliability of or detracts from the performance of the product.

For products requiring routine preventive maintenance, that maintenance must be performed in order to maintain warranty coverage.

Serial numbers that have been altered, defaced or removed void this warranty. This warranty does not cover replacements or repairs necessitated by loss or damage resulting from any cause beyond the control of PCI.

Marking or retained images (sometimes called “burn-in”) resulting from the display of fixed images on video display products are not defects and are not covered under this warranty.

THIS EXPRESS, LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL PANASONIC CANADA INC. BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.

In certain instances, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above limitations and exclusions may not be applicable.
