Safety Precautions | Maintenance

Maintenance
First, remove the mains plug from the socket outlet.
Display panel, Cabinet, Pedestal
Regular care :
Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, cabinet,
or pedestal by using a soft cloth to clean the dirt or
fingerprints.
For stubborn dirt :
Dampen a soft cloth with clean water or diluted neutral detergent
(1 part detergent to 100 parts water). Then wring the cloth and
wipe the surface. Finally, wipe away all the moisture.
Caution
t
Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard. This may cause scratches on the surface.
t
Take care not to subject the TV’s surfaces to water or detergent. A liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.
t
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.
t
Take care not to tap or scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard objects.
t
Do not allow the cabinet and pedestal to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time. This may degrade
surface quality.
Mains plug
Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or electrical shock.
Caution
When cleaning the TV remove the mains
plug
t
Cleaning an energized TV may cause electrical shock.
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket
when TV is not in use for a prolonged period
of time
t
The TV will still consume some power even in the off mode,
as long as the mains plug is still connected.
t
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket before
connecting or disconnecting leads.
Do not expose your ears to excessive
volume from the headphones
t
Irreversible damage can be caused.
Do not apply strong force or impact to the
display panel
t
This may cause damage resulting in injury.
Transport TV set in upright position
Do not block the rear air vents
t
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent failure of
electronic components.
t
Ventilation should not be impeded by covering the
ventilation openings with items such as newspapers, table
cloths and curtains.
t
We recommend that a gap of at least 10cm is left all
around this television receiver even when placed inside a
cabinet or between shelves.
t
When using the pedestal, keep the space between the
bottom of the TV and the surface where the TV is set. If
pedestal is not used, ensure the vents in the bottom of the
TV set are not blocked.

Warning
t
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.
t
When any optional accessories or wall hanging brackets are used, always ensure that the instructions provided are followed
fully.
t
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.
t
Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Wall mounted equipment shall not be grounded by metal within the wall.
Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.
t
To prevent fall and injury, remove TV from its fixed wall position when no longer in use.

Auto mode
Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen. It does this using a four step process (WSS, Control signal
through SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection, or Justify to fill the screen) to determine.
This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.
Letterbox detection :
If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to
fill the screen.
If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.
Note
t
The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and bottom
of the screen may appear.
t
If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the
VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.
