[] Set up
This Plasma TV may fall and can cause personal
injury or even death if not installed correctly. To
prevent personal injury or death, follow these
warnings:
®Install the Plasma TV in accordance with
the manufacturer's recommended pedestal
or stand, corresponding hardware and
installation instructions.
This Plasma TV is for use only with the following
optional accessories. Use with any other type
of optional accessories may cause instability.
The following accessories are manufactured by
Panasonic Corporation.
• Wall-hanging bracket (Angled)
TY-WK4P 1RW
®Be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry
out the installation and set-up.
Two or more people are required to install or
remove the television.
® Some wall mounts (wall-hanging brackets) are
not designed to be mounted to walls with steel
studs or old cinder block constructions.
Ask your dealer or licensed contractor to properly
secure the wall-hanging bracket.
® Do not route the TV's power cord inside the
wall.
The power cord was not designed for in-wall
mounting.
Doing so can lead to fire hazard.
® Do not place the Plasma TV or its stand on a
sloped or unstable surface.
The Plasma TV may fall or tip over.
® Do not support the Plasma TV on a non-
specified pedestal.
® Do not place the Plasma TV on furniture that
can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of
drawers.
® Do not climb or allow children to climb on the
Plasma TV
®Place or install the Plasma TV where it cannot
be pushed, pulled over or knocked down.
®Route all cords and cables such that they
cannot be tripped over or pulled by curious
children.
® Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma
TV.
if water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign
objects get inside it, a short-circuit may occur,
which could result in fire or electric shock. If any
foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, please
consult an Authorized Service Center.
® In the unlikely event that you receive a shock
from this product, it is possible that your
household outlet may be wired improperly.
Have an electrician verify that the TV's outlet is
properly wired. If the problem persists, have the
TV serviced by a qualified authorized technician.
® To prevent the spread of fire, keep
candies or other open flames away q9
from this product at all times
[] AC Power Supply Cord
To prevent fire or electric shock:
®The Plasma TV is designed to operate on a 120
V AC, 60 Hz service. Insert the power cord plug
as far as it will go into the wall socket.
If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may generate,
which could cause a fire.
®The included power cord is for use with this
unit only.
® Do not use any power cord other than that
provided with this TV.
® Do not handle the power cord plug with wet
hands.
® Do not do anything that might damage the
power supply cord.
® When disconnecting the power supply cord,
hold the plug, not the cord.
® Do not use the power supply cord if the plug or
cord is damaged.
Replace the cord or contact your Authorized
Service Center.
® Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong AC plug
adapters to connect your TV's plug to the wall
outlet.
Doing so will defeat the TV plug's safety feature,
which can lead to a shock hazard, if the wall outlet
does not accommodate a 3-prong plug, have a
qualified electrician replace your outlet and check
the associated wiring.
[] Handling the power supply cord
® Insert the power plug fully into the socket
outlet. (If the power plug is loose, it could
generate heat and cause fire.)
®Ensure that the power plug is easily
accessible.
®Ensure the earth pin on the power plug is
securely connected to prevent electrical shock.
• An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall
be connected to a power socket outlet with a
protective earthing connection.
® Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand.
(This may cause electrical shock.)
® Do not use any power cord other than that
provided with this TV. (This may cause fire or
electrical shock.)
5

ODo not damage the power cord. (A damaged
cord may cause fire or electrical shock.)
• Do not move the TV with the cord plugged in the
socket outlet.
•Do not place a heavy object on the cord or place
the cord near a high-temperature object.
•Do not twist the cord, bend it excessively, or
stretch it.
•Do not pull on the cord. Hold onto the power
plug body when disconnecting cord.
•Do not use a damaged power plug or socket
outlet.
®If a problem occurs (such as no picture or
no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor
is detected from the Plasma TV, unplug the
power supply cord immediately.
Continued use of the TV under these conditions
might cause a fire or permanent damage to the TV.
Have the TV evaluated by an Authorized Service
Center. Servicing of the TV by unauthorized
personnel is strongly discouraged due to its high
voltage.
® If water or an object gets inside the Plasma TV,
if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the enclosure
becomes damaged, unplug the power supply
cord immediately.
A short-circuit may occur, which could cause a
fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for an
evaluation.
CAOT,O.J
® Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat,
which can cause a fire or damage to the Plasma
TV.
® Leave aspace of 3 15/i6" (10 cm) or more at
the top, left and right, and 2 3/4" (7 cm) or more
at the rear.
® When using the pedestal, keep the space
between the bottom of the TV and the pedestal
or stand surface clear from objects that may
obstruct ventilation.
mWhen Moving the Plasma "iV
OBe sure to disconnect all cables before moving
the Plasma TV.
Moving the TV with its cables attached might
damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fire
or electric shock.
® To prevent an electric shock, disconnect the
power plug from the wall outlet as a safety
precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
®Transport only in upright position.
Transporting the unit with its display panel facing
upright or downward may cause damage to the
internal circuitry.
® Using a dry cloth, clean any dust from the
power supply cord and plug regularly.
Build-up of dust on the power cord plug can
increase humidity, which might damage the
insulation and cause a fire.
This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays;
therefore, it may affect other infrared
communication equipment. Install your infrared
sensor in a place away from direct or reflected
light from your Plasma TV.
The TV will still consume some power as long as
the power supply cord is connected to the wall
outlet.
® Display panel is made of glass. Do not apply
strong force or impact to the display panel.
This may cause damage resulting in injury.
® The TV is heavy. TV should be handled by 2 or
more people. Support as shown below to avoid
injury by the TV from tipping or failing.
