• Receiver Location
Locate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where
sunlight or other bright light (including reflections) will
fall on the screen.
Use of some types of fluorescent lighting can reduce
remote control transmitter range.
Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal
component failure. Keep away from areas of excessive
heat or moisture.
To insure optimum picture do not position magnetic
equipment (motors, fans, other speakers, etc.) nearby.
• Optional External Equipment
The Video/Audio connection between components can
be made with shielded video and audio cables. For
best performance, we recommend 75 ohm coaxial
aerial cable is used. Cables are available from your
dealer or electronic supply store.
Before you purchase any cables, be sure you know
what type of output and input connectors your various
components require. Also determine the length of cable
you’ll need.
• For optimum quality picture
When the LCD is exposed to light from outdoors or
lighting fixtures, high-contrast pictures may not be
displayed clearly. Turn off florescent lamps near the
LCD and place in a location not exposed to outdoor
light.
• How to use the LCD stand
Adjust the stand to your desired angle. The stand angle
can be adjusted between 0
°
forward to 28
°
back.

• This TV set is designed to operate on DC 15V.
• To prevent damage which might result in electric shock
or fire, do not expose this TV set to rain or excessive
moisture. This TV must not be exposed to dripping or
splashing water, and objects filled with liquid, such as

accessible when it is removed. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
• TV Games / Home Computers
Extended use of TV games or home computers with
any television set can cause a permanent ‘shadow’ on
the screen. This type of irreversible LCD panel
damage, can be limited by observing the following
points:
•
Reduce the brightness and contrast levels to a
minimum viewing level.
•
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 LCD TV screen.
•
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games,
computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3
mode.
•
This type of LCD panel damage, is not an operating
defect, and as such is not covered by the Panasonic
warranty.
• The On/Off switch on this model does not fully
disconnect the TV from the mains supply. Remove the
mains plug from the wall socket when the TV set is not
used for a prolonged period of time.
Note:
•
If the set is not switched off when the TV station stops
transmitting, it will automatically go to stand-by mode
after 30 minutes. This function will not operate when
the TV is in AV mode.
• Cabinet and LCD panel care
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket. The
cabinet and LCD panel can be cleaned with a soft, dry
cloth. Do not use water or solutions containing benzol
or petroleum.
• When ambient temperature is cool, the picture may
take a short time to reach normal brightness, but this
is not a malfunction. (After brief moment, the picture
will have normal brightness.)
• Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent failure of
electrical components, we recommend that a gap of
at least 10cm is left all around this television receiver
even when it is placed inside a cabinet or between
shelves.
• Avoid exposing the TV set to direct sunlight and other
sources of heat.
