INFORMATION REGARDING CONVERGENCE
In the projection television, the image is formed by projecting 3 different color images (red, green and blue) onto the
projection screen. Convergence refers to the alignment of red, green and blue images on the projection screen.
When these images are properly aligned (converged), you see a sharp and vibrant color image. Sometimes, the three
images may require alignment. This is due to the effect of earth’s magnetic field on the projection tubes. Normally,
adjustment is not necessary after the initial alignment at the center of the screen. It is possible to correct the color fringing
on other areas of the screen by using the buttons on the remote control and by following the on-screen instructions in the
set-up menu. Please converge the images before using the television for the first time. The following diagram shows
examples of a misaligned image and a properly aligned image. Please refer to pages 35 and 36 for detailed procedure
on how to adjust convergence.
Misconverged image Properly aligned image

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE USE OF VIDEO GAMES, COMPUTERS, OR
OTHER FIXED IMAGE DISPLAYS.
WARNING: The marking or retained image on the picture tube resulting from viewing fixed
image is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by Warranty.
The projection television is designed to display constantly moving images on the screen.
Continuous viewing of stationary images such as letterbox pictures on standard screen TVs (with
top/bottom bars), non-expanded standard (4:3) pictures on wide screen TVs (with side bars shown
on each side of an image), stock market report bars (ticker running at the bottom of the screen),
video game patterns, fixed scoreboards, bright station logos, on-line (internet) or repetitive computer
style patterns should be limited.
The extended use of fixed image program material can cause a permanent picture tube damage,
shown as a “shadow image” viewable on normal programs. This type of irreversible picture tube
deterioration can be limited by performing the following steps:
• Limit the display of fixed image program material to no more than 15% of total viewing time per week.
• Turn the power off when not in use.

Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Connection
This television is capable of displaying 1080i and 480p DTV signals when connected to a DTV Tuner set-top-box (STB). In
order to view DTV programming, the STB must be connected to the component video inputs (Y, PB, PR) of the television. A
DTV signal must be available in your area. Select the output of the STB to either 1080i or 480p.
This television also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which de-interlaces the NTSC signal and progressively scans the
image. This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated
with interlaced TV pictures.
Use this diagram to connect the Panasonic DTV-STB (Digital TV-Set-Top Box) or DVD Player to the back of your TV.
Note: There are 2 sets of three video inputs, Y, P
B
, and P
R
. Separate component color inputs provide luminance and color separation.
Use the L (left) and R (right) audio inputs.
