Safety Precautions
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odour starts to come out
from the Plasma Display, immediately unplug the power cord plug from the wall outlet.
If you continue to use the Plasma Display in this condition, fire or electric shock could result. After checking that the
smoke has stopped, contact your local Panasonic dealer so that the necessary repairs can be made. Repairing the
Plasma Display yourself is extremely dangerous, and shall never be done.
If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma Display, if the Plasma Display is dropped, or if the cabinet
becomes damages, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
A short circuit may occur, which could cause fire. Contact your local Panasonic dealer for any repairs that need to
be made.
CAUTION
When using the Plasma Display
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma Display.
Heated air comes out from the ventilation holes at the top of Plasma Display will be hot. Do not bring your hands
or face, or objects which cannot withstand heat, close to this port, otherwise burns or deformation could result.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma Display.
If the Plasma Display is moved while some of the cables are still connected, the cables may become damaged,
and fire or electric shock could result.
Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall socket 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 becoming dusty.
If dust built up on the power cord plug, the resultant humidity can damage the insulation, which could result in fire.
Pull the power cord plug out from the wall outlet and wipe the mains lead with a dry cloth.
Cleaning and 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 to
which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, 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 fingernails 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.

The SERIAL terminal is used when the Plasma Display is controlled by a computer.
The SERIAL terminal conforms to the RS-232C interface specification, so that the Plasma Display can be controlled by
a computer which is connected to this terminal.
The computer will require software which allows the sending and receiving of control data which satisfies the conditions
given below. Use a computer application such as a programming language to software. Refer to the documentation for
the computer application for details.
Basic format for control data
The transmission of control data from the computer
starts with a STX signal, followed by the command,
the parameters, and lastly an ETX signal in that order.
If there are no parameters, then the parameter signal
does not need to be sent.
Notes:
(1) If multiple commands are transmitted, be sure to
wait for the response for the first command to come
from this unit before sending the next command.
(2) If an incorrect command is sent by mistake, this
unit will send an ER401 command back to the
computer.

Explanation
4:3 will display a 4:3 picture at its standard 4:3 size.
Zoom mode magnifies the central section of the
picture.
16:9 will display the picture at its maximum size but
with sight elongation.
Just mode will display a 4:3 picture at its maximum
size but with aspect correction applied to the center
of the screen so that elongation is only apparent at
the left and right edges of the screen. The size of
the picture will depend on the original signal.
Note:
Do not allow the picture displayed in 4:3 mode for an extended period, as this can cause a parmanent after-image to
remain on the Plasma Display Panel.

The display will automatically become enlarged
(depending on the picture source), allowing you to
view the picture at its maximum size.
Note:
Panasonic Auto mode is designed to automatically
adjust the aspect ratio to handle a mix of 16:9 and
4:3 program material. Certain 4:3 program material,
such as stock market data screens, may
occasionally cause the image size to change
unexpectedly. When viewing such programs, it is
recommended that the ASPECT be set to 4:3.

Troubleshooting
Before you call for service, determine the symptoms and make a few simple checks as shown below.
Symptoms
Some parts of the screen
do not light up
After-images appear
Whirring sounds can be
heard from the display unit.
Plasma Display panel
Check
The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision
technology, however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture
elements or have luminous spots. This is not a malfunction.
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 Plasma Display.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext
and images displayed in 4:3 mode.
Note:
The permanent after-image on the Plasma Display resulting from fixed image use
is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the Warranty.
This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.
The display unit is fitted with a cooling fan to dissipate heat generated during normal
use.The whirring sound is caused by rotation of the fan and is not a malfunction.
