Safety Precautions

Warning
Handling the mains plug and lead
Insert the mains plug fully into the socket outlet. (If the mains plug is loose, it could generate heat and cause fire.) Ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible. Do not touch the mains plug with a wet hand. This may cause electrical shock. Do not damage the mains lead, damaged lead may cause fire or electrical shock.
Do not move the TV with the lead plugged into a socket outlet.• Do not place a heavy object on the lead or place the lead near a high temperature object.• Do not twist the lead, bend it excessively or stretch it.• Do not pull on the lead. Hold onto the mains plug body when disconnecting the plug.• Do not use a damaged mains plug or socket outlet.• Ensure the TV does not crush the mains lead.
If you find any abnormality, remove the mains plug immediately!

A liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure. Take care not to subject the surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, thinner, or other volatile substances. This may degrade surface quality or cause peeling of the paint. The surface of the display panel is specially treated and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard objects. Do not allow the cabinet and stand to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time.

Warning
Failure to use a Panasonic bracket or choosing to mount the unit yourself will be done at the risk of the consumer. Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set up. Incorrect fitting may cause equipment to fall, resulting in injury and product damage. Any damage resulting from not having a professional installer mount your unit will void your warranty. When any optional accessories or wall hanging brackets are used, always ensure that the instructions provided are followed fully. 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. 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.
