If you find any 

abnormality, remove  

the mains plug immediately!

(such as strange smell or smoke)

Keep liquids away from the TV

To prevent damage which may result in fire or 

shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to 

dripping or splashing.

Do not place containers with water (flower vase, 

cups, cosmetics, etc.) above the set. (including on 

shelves above, etc.)

AC 220-240 V 

50 / 60 Hz

Blocked ventilation by curtains, etc. may cause 

overheating, fire or electrical shock.

Do not remove covers

NEVER modify the unit yourself

(High-voltage components may cause serious 

electrical shock.)

Have the unit checked, adjusted, or repaired at 

your local Panasonic dealer.

Do not place foreign objects 

inside the unit

Do not let metal or flammable objects drop into the unit 

through the air vents (fire or electrical shock may result).

Remember not to keep still pictures on 

the screen for extended lengths of time

Such still pictures cause after-images on the plasma 

screen if they are displayed for a long time. These 

after-images are not considered malfunctions and are 

not covered by the warranty.

To decrease the chance of after-images, a screen saver will 

be automatically activated after a few minutes if there is no 

signal and if there is no operation in AV mode. (p. 29)

The screen saver will be automatically deactivated when a 

signal is detected or an operation is executed.

Allow sufficient space around the unit  

  for radiated heat

Using an unauthorized stand or other fixtures may 

make the unit shaky, risking injury. Be sure to ask 

your local Panasonic dealer to perform setup.

Use optional stands / mounts (p. 6).

Use only the dedicated stands /  

  mounting equipment
