Why doesn’t my 3D video source
looks 3D?
1. Begin playing the 3D video source.
2. Ensure that the Panasonic 3D Eyewear (glasses) are on
(check the glasses battery)
3. Press “3D” button directly or press the VIERA TOOLS button
on the TV’s remote control and select “3D”
4. In the “3D format select” menu, select “3D”.
Notes:
1. 3D Blu-ray discs must be played with a 3D capable Blu-ray player.
2. Check with your Cable or Satellite provider if their supplied box is 3D capable.
3. 3D signal must be connected to the TV via an HDMI cable.
4. Use Panasonic 3D Eyewear supporting Bluetooth wireless technology.
When selecting some 3D video
content, why are there two
pictures next to each other?
There are a few different 3D formats and the current setting may
not match the incoming 3D signal. The format should change
automatically, but depending on the source/connection it may not
signal the TV properly. To manually select other 3D formats:
1. Press “3D” button directly or press VIERA TOOLS button on
the TV’s remote control and select “3D”
2. In the “3D format select” menu, choose another 3D format
such as “Side by side” or “Top and bottom”.
3. Remember to switch the 3D format setting back to “AUTO”
when you go back to viewing a standard 2D signal.
Why does the left and right sides
of the image seem reversed?
The 3D format has two different “phases”. Try the other phase:
1. In the main menu, select “Setup”. Highlight “3D settings” and press OK.
2. In the “3D Settings” menu, select “Left/Right swap”
Can I use 3D glasses similar to the
kind given at a 3D movie theater to
watch 3D content on my 3D TV?
No. Movie theater’s 3D glasses are passive. They use a simple
filter ‘lens’. Panasonic active shutter 3D Eyewear are actively
synchronizing the left/right eye viewing with the display,
providing a superior 3D viewing experience.
What is the easiest and best way
to connect a High-Definition Cable
or Satellite box to the TV?
Use an HDMI cable. It carries both digital video and audio
signal in HD. HDMI cable is the only cable needed to connect
an HD device to the TV.
Why does the CC button not
display Closed Caption?
When viewing TV via an HDMI connected device, such as a
Cable or Satellite box, CC must be enabled at the device.
Closed Caption is available only at supported TV
programming.
Why does the screen and back
cover of the TV get warm?
The main unit radiates heat and some of the parts may
become hot. This is normal operation and does not affect the
performance of the set.
Ensure good ventilation.
Do not block the ventilation holes of the TV and do not place
the TV on top of other equipment.
Why doesn’t the Remote Control
work?
Check that the batteries are fresh, are of the same type and
are installed with the correct polarity (+ & -).
To operate other devices, such as changing channels when
using Cable or Satellite boxes or operating non-Panasonic Blu-
ray players, use the remote supplied with the device.
Why is the “ANT/Cable” option
at the top of the “Input select”
menu grayed-out and unable to be
selected?
During “First time setup”, you indicated in ANT/Cable setup that
you are using Cable or Satellite box and the box is connected to
one of the TV’s AV inputs. In this case, the Antenna/Cable input is
deactivated to prevent unintentional switching into unused tuner. To
re-activate, press MENU, select SETUP and repeat “First time setup”.
Some menu items are grayed-out
and unable to be selected. Why?
Depending on certain modes or the selected input, some
options are not available. For example, Zoom adjustments are
only available when the FORMAT is changed to zoom mode.
How do I reset my TV to all factory
defaults and settings?
In the main menu, select “Setup”. Highlight “Reset to defaults”
and press OK. Enter your password (if created earlier) or
create a temporary new password. Select Yes to reset the TV.
