Warning
Take care
To help avoid risk of electrical shock, fire, damage or injury, please follow the warnings below:
Do not remove covers and never modify the TV yourself as live parts are accessible 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 expose the TV to direct sunlight and other sources of heat. To prevent fire never place any type of candle or naked flame on top or near the TV.
Do not place the TV on sloped or unstable surfaces.
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. Do not apply strong force or impact to the display panel.
To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times
Small object
This product contains possibly dangerous parts that can be breathed in or swallowed by young children accidentally.
Keep the dangerous parts out of reach of young children. Do not allow children to handle SD Card. As with any small object, the SD Card could be swallowed by young children. Please remove SD Card immediately after use and store out of reach of young children.
Caution
Ventilation
Allow sufficient space around the TV in order to help prevent excessive heat, which could lead to early failure of some electronic components.
Ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, tablecloths and curtains. Whether you are using the pedestal or not, always ensure the vents in the bottom of the TV are not blocked and there is sufficient space to enable adequate ventilation.
Moving the TV
Before moving the TV, disconnect all cables.
Transport only in upright position.
When not in use for a long time
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.
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket when the TV is not in use for a prolonged period of time.
Excessive volume
Do not expose your ears to excessive volume from the headphones. Irreversible damage can be caused.

Warning
Using other wall-hanging brackets, or installing a wall-hanging bracket by yourself has the risk of personal injury and product damage. In order to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be sure to ask your dealer or a licenced 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 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 which will void your warranty. Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights or halogen lights) which typically give off high heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts. Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Wall mounted equipment must not be grounded by metal within 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 for an extended period of time.

Using TV Guide
TV Guide - Electronic Programme Guide (EPG) provides an on screen listing of the programmes currently broadcast and the forthcoming broadcasts over the next seven days (depending on the broadcasters).
This function varies depending on the country you select (p. 12). The postcode entry or update may be required to use the GUIDE Plus+ system depending on the country you select. “View advertisement” (p. 19) DVB-T and Analogue channels are displayed on the same TV Guide screen. Analogue channels will be listed after DVB-T channels but there will be no programme listings. “D” means DVB-T channel and “A” means Analogue channel. When this TV is turned on for the first time, or the TV is switched off for more than a week, it may take some time before the TV Guide is completely shown.
