or fi re, do not expose this TV set to rain or excessive
moisture. This TV must not be exposed to dripping or
splashing water and ob jects fi lled with liq uid, such as
vases, must not be placed on top of or above the TV.
• 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.
• Use only the accessories appropriate to handling with
fragile products.
• To prevent injury, this apparaturs must be securely
attached to the fl oor/wall in accordance with installation
instructions (mounting bracket is not supplied) .
• WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE!!!
Do not remove the rear cover as live parts are
accessible when it is removed. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
Ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible.
• TV Games / Home Computers
Extended use of TV games or home computers with
any television set can cause a ‘shadow’ on the screen.
This type of LCD panel phenomenon, can be limited
by observing the following points:
• Reduce the brightness and contrast levels to a
minimum viewing level.
• Do not operate the television set for a continuous
period of time while using TV games or home
computers.
• Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an
extended period, as this can cause a permanent
after-image to remain on the LCD TV screen.
• Examples of still pictures include logos, video games,
computer images, teletext and images displayed in
4:3 mode.
• This type of LCD panel damage, is not an operating
defect, and as such is not covered by the Panasonic
warranty.
• Remove the mains plug from the wall when TV is not
in use. Remove the mains plug from the wall socket
before connecting or disconnecting any leads.
Sleep feature:
If the set is not switched off when the TV station stops
transmitting, it will automatically go to Standby mode
after 30 minutes. This function will not operate when
the TV is in AV mode.
• Cabinet and LCD panel care
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket. The
cabinet and LCD panel can be cleaned with a soft cloth
moistened with mild detergent and water. Do not use
solutions containing benzol or petroleum.
• When ambient temperature is cool, the picture may
take a short time to reach normal brightness, but this
is not a malfunction. (After brief moment, the picture
will have normal brightness.)
• Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent failure of
electrical components, we recommend that a gap of
at least 10 cm is left all around this television receiver
even when it is placed inside a cabinet or between
shelves.
• Avoid exposing the TV set to direct sunlight and other
sources of heat. To prevent fi re, never place any type
of candle or naked fl ame on top or near the TV set.
• Ventilation should not be impleded by covering the
ventilation openings with items such as newspapers,
table cloths and curtains.

require. Also determine the lenght of cable you `ll need.

Q-Link
Q-Link allows the television to communicate with a compatible VCR or DVD Recorder.
For Q-Link communication to work, the TV must be connected to a recording device with the “Q-Link”, “NEXTVIEWLINK”,
“DATA LOGIC”, “Easy Link”, “Megalogic” or “SMARTLINK” logo using a “fully wired” Scart cable between the AV1 /
AV2 terminal of the television and the appropriate terminal on your VCR or DVD Recorder.
For connection to the appropriate Scart terminal on the recording device, refer to the device’s instruction book.
When using a “NEXTVIEWLINK” device the main features possible are the following:
Preset Download
This allows the programme order from the TV to be downloaded to the recording device, helping to ensure that correct
recordings are made; there are several ways to perform this operation:
1. During installation as explained in the “Quick Start Guide” on page 5, 6.
2. When Auto setup is started from within the Tuning menu. See page 12.
3. Preset download started from the recording device, refer to the device’s instruction book.
What You See Is What You Record (DIRECT TV RECORDING)
This will allow the immediate recording of the programme currently shown on the TV, by the recording
device attached to the Scart terminal, which can be chosen using “Q-Link”. See page 11.
Press the DIRECT TV REC button.
DIRECT TV REC
If the recording device is in Standby mode with usable recording media inserted, it will automatically
switch on when you press the DIRECT TV REC button.
If a “Q-Link” device is connected, a message will appear on the TV screen showing what is being recorded,
or if it is not possible to record. Some “Q-Link” compatible devices will only display the message when
on the VCR programme position “0” or in AV mode. Refer to the device’s instruction book.

When the TV is switched into Standby mode, the recording device will also switch into Standby mode if there is no
media inserted, or if there is media inserted and the device is in Rewind or Stop mode. If a VCR is rewinding a tape,
it will not switch into Standby mode until rewinding has fi nished.
Recording device Image View On
If the TV is in Standby mode and the recording device sends a menu to be displayed on the TV screen (e.g., Main
menu), the TV will automatically switch On and the menu will be displayed.
This TV will also communicate with other recording device’s that bear the following logos:
• “DATA LOGIC” (a trademark of Metz Corporation) • “Megalogic” (a trademark of Grundig Corporation)
• “Easy Link” (a trademark of Philips Corporation) • “SMARTLINK” (a trademark of Sony Corporation)
Important Note:
Some recording devices may not support all or some of the above functions. Refer to the instruction book for the
device.
If Q-Link functions do not work, check the connection and ensure that the scart lead is a fully-wired type.
The tape or disc may have been “write protected”,
miss ing or may be damaged. The device may already be
re cord ing. Refer to the device’s instruction book.
To share tuning information
To ensure correct recordings are made, the television and VCR (DVD/R) should share tuning information see page 14.
• Whenever the Auto setup (ATP) function is used, tuning data will be downloaded to the VCR (DVD/R).
To turn off Q-Link communication
If you do not wish to use the Q-Link feature, go to the Setup menu and set the Q-Link option to "Off". See page 11.

Press the ASPECT button. Whilst the on screen selector keys are
displayed, use the Red or Green buttons to move in either direction
through the nine aspect options.
Auto aspect
Auto aspect determines the best aspect ra tio to use to fi ll your screen. It does
this using a four step process to determine if the picture being viewed is a
widescreen picture.
If Auto aspect detects a widescreen signal it switches into the ap pro pri ate
widescreen mode. If Auto aspect does not detect a widescreen signal then
this advanced TV set enhances the picture for optimum viewing pleasure.

Notes:
• If, in Auto aspect mode, you experience problems with the screen display
size when playing back widescreen format recordings from your VCR then
it is possible that the tracking control of your VCR requires adjustment (your
VCR instruction book will contain adjustment details).
• The widescreen aspect ratios of different fi lms and programmes can vary.
If these are wider than a standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may
be visible at the top and bottom of the screen.
• “WIDE” will appear in the top left corner of the screen and picture aspect
changes accordingly in any aspect modes, if a widescreen identifi cation signal
(WSS) is detected or a control signal is found through a Scart terminal.
• Automatic aspect ratio adjustment by WSS signal is not available for
