Take care

Warning

Do not remove covers and never modify the TV yourself as live parts are accessible and risk

of electric shock when they are removed. There are no user serviceable parts inside.

Do not expose the 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 insert foreign objects into the TV through the air vents.

Do not use an unapproved pedestal / mounting equipment. Be sure to ask your local Panasonic dealer to perform the setup or installation of approved wall-hanging brackets.

Ensure that children do not climb on the TV.

Do not place the TV on sloping or unstable surfaces, and ensure that the TV does not hang over the edge of the base.

Warning

Never place a TV in an unstable location. A TV may fall, causing serious personal injury or death. Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

•Using cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the TV.

•Only using furniture that can safely support the TV.

•Ensuring the TV is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

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

•Not placing the TV on cloth or other materials that may be located between the TV and supporting furniture.

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

If your existing TV is being retained and relocated, the same considerations as above should be applied.
