CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover or back. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

The lightning flash with arrow-head within a triangle is intended to tell the user that parts inside the product are a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within a triangle is intended to tell the user that important operating and servicing instructions are in the papers with the appliance.

WARNING : To prevent damage which may result in fire or shock hazard, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. Do not place containers with water (flower vase, cups, cosmetics, etc.) above the set. (including on shelves above, etc.)

WARNING : 1) To prevent electric shock, do not remove cover. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
2) Do not remove the grounding pin on the power plug. This apparatus is equipped with a three pin grounding-type power plug. This plug will only fit a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding plug.

This video monitor is designed to display television content from a separate TV tuner. Full-power analog TV broadcasting in the United States will end (as required by law) on February 17, 2009, after which full-power TV broadcasts will be digital only. If this device is used after that date to record or display programming from a product with a TV tuner that relies on a TV antenna, that product would need to contain a digital tuner, or a TV Converter would be necessary to tune the digital signal received with a TV antenna. Analog TVs should continue to work as before for other purposes (e.g., for watching low-power TV stations still broadcasting in analog, watching pre- recorded movies, or playing video games). When a Converter is used with an older television receiver or directly with this product, a signal splitter might be necessary to continue to receive low-power analog broadcasts via an antenna. For more information, please see www.DTV.gov or 1-888-CALL-FCC. For information on the TV Converter program, and on government coupons that may be used toward the purchase of one, see www.dtv2009.gov, or call the NTIA at 1-888-DTV-2009. Please check with your cable or satellite service provider if you have questions about your cable or satellite set-top box.

Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set-up.
Small parts can present choking hazard if accidentally swallowed. Keep small parts away from young children. Discard unneeded small parts and other objects, including packaging materials and plastic bags/sheets to prevent them from being played with by young children, creating the potential risk of suffocation.

When using the Plasma Display
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma Display. · Top of the Plasma Display is usually very hot due to the
high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the display could also result in heat damages to the object as well as to the Display if its ventilation holes are blocked.
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma Display.
· Moving the Display with its cables attached might damage the cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
· Electric shocks can result if this is not done.

Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from becoming dusty.
· Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase humidity which might damage the insulation and cause fire. Unplug the cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth.
This Plasma Display 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 Display.
Note: Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent image retention to remain on the Plasma Display. Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode.

Transport only in upright position! · Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.
If using the pedestal (optional accessory), leave a space of 3 15/16″ (10 cm) or more at the top, left and right, and 2 3/4″ (7 cm) or more at the rear, and also keep the space between the bottom of the display and the floor surface. If using some other setting-up method, follow the manual of it.
AC Power Supply Cord
The Plasma Display is designed to operate on 110 – 127 V AC, 50/60 Hz.
Do not use any power supply cord other than that provided with this unit.
· Doing so may cause fire or electric shocks.

Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will go. · If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated which could cause fire. If the plug is damaged or the wall socket plate is loose, they should not be used.
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands. · Doing so may cause electric shocks.
Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.
· Do not make any modifications, place heavy objects on, place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully pull the power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable which can cause fire or electric shock. If damage to the cable is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.
If the Plasma Display will not be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma Display, unplug the power cord immediately.
· Continuous use of the Display under these conditions might cause fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the Display evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Services to the Display by any unauthorized personnel are strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.
If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma Display, if the Plasma Display is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged, disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
· A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be made.

Maintenance

The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
· If the surface is particularly dirty, wipe with a soft, lint-free cloth which has been soaked in pure water or water in which neutral detergent has been diluted 100 times, and then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same type until the surface is dry.
· Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects, otherwise the surface may become damaged. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. · If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth. · Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma Display. If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result. · Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.

When this function is turned ON, luminous level of the Plasma Display is suppressed, so power consumption is reduced. When this function is turned ON, power consumption of the microcomputer is reduced during power supply standby (see page 12, 14, 15), so standby power of the set is reduced. When this function is set to ON, it operates under the following conditions to turn the power on or off automatically. When no pictures (sync signals) are detected for 30 or so seconds during PC IN signal input:
Power is turned off (standby); the power indicator lights up orange. The power is not turned off when the SYNC ON G sync signal has been detected.
When pictures (sync signals) are subsequently detected: Power is turned on; the power indicator lights up green. The power is not turned on when only the SYNC ON G sync signal has been detected.
Notes: · This function operates only during PC IN signal input. · This function is invalid during input from PC Input Terminal Board (TY-42TM6P). · This function is effective when “SYNC” is set to “AUTO”, “COMPONENT / RGB-IN SELECT”
is set to “RGB” and during normal viewing (one picture screen). Equipment power supply is turned OFF when there is no signal. When this is set to On, the power supply of the unit goes Off 10 minutes after the input signals stop.

No Color

Normal Sound

Color controls set at minimum level. (see page 22, 23) COLOR SYSTEM (see page 32)

No remote control operations can be performed.
A cracking sound is sometimes heard from the unit.
The top or bottom of the picture on the screen is cut off when I use the zoom function. Areas at the top and bottom of the screen where the image is missing appear when I use the zoom function.

Check whether the batteries have discharged completely and, if they have not, whether they were inserted properly. Check whether the remote control sensor is exposed to an outdoor light or a strong fluorescent light. Check whether the remote control designed specifically for use with the unit is being used. (The unit cannot be operated by any other remote control.)
If there is nothing wrong with the picture or sound, this is the sound of the cabinet undergoing very slight contractions in response to changes in the room temperature. There are no adverse effects on the performance or other aspects.
Adjust the position of the picture on the screen.
When using a video software program (such as a cinema size program) with a screen wider than one in the 16:9 mode, blank areas separate from the images are formed at the top and bottom of the screen.

I can hear sounds coming from inside the unit.

When the power is turned on, a sound of the display panel being driven may be heard: This is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.

This Plasma Display uses special image processing. Hence a slight time lag may occur between image and audio, depending on the type of input signal. However, this is not a malfunction.

Plasma Display panel Symptoms
The screen darkens slightly when bright pictures with minimal movements are shown. It takes a while for the picture to appear.
The edges of the images flicker. The brightness on both sides of images in 4:3 mode changes. Some parts of the screen do not light up.
Image retention appears

Check
The screen will darken slightly when photos, still images of a computer or other pictures with minimal movements are shown for an extended period. This is done to reduce image retention on the screen and the shortening of the screen’s service life: It is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.
The unit digitally processes the various signals in order to reproduce esthetically pleasing images. As such, it sometimes takes a few moments for the picture to appear when the power has been turned on, when the input has been switched or when the images for the main picture and sub picture on the two screens are swapped.
Due to the characteristics of the system used to drive the panel, the edges may appear to flicker in the fast-moving parts of the images: This is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.
When viewing the side panels at the “BRIGHT” or “MID” setting, the brightness on both sides may change depending on the kind of program shown: This is normal and not indicative of malfunctioning.
The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a malfunction.
Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent image retention to remain on the Plasma Display. Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode. Note: The permanent image retention on the Plasma Display resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the Warranty. This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.

LI M I T ED WARRAN T Y STAT EM EN T

Panasonic Canada Inc. (also known as PCI) warrants this product to be free of defects in material and workmanship under normal use during the applicable warranty coverage period described below. PCI agrees to repair, or at its option, exchange, any part that becomes defective. However, the product must be purchased and serviced in Canada. The product or part that shows evidence of defect must be delivered prepaid or carried in to an authorized Panasonic Broadcast Service Center. This warranty does not cover shipping costs.
The warranty coverage period is one year for both parts and labour beginning with the date of original end user purchase, subject to the exceptions as stated below. Repaired or replacement parts supplied during the warranty coverage period carry the unexpired portion of the original warranty coverage period. Proof of product purchase is a condition of warranty service. The owner must produce the product purchase receipt or other satisfactory evidence of date of original purchase.
This warranty does not apply to external appearance items, such as handles, knobs, safety windows, etc. This warranty does not apply to any part, or parts, of the product, installed, altered, repaired or misused in any way that, in the opinion of PCI, affects the reliability of or detracts from the performance of the product.
For products requiring routine preventive maintenance, that maintenance must be performed in order to maintain warranty coverage.
Serial numbers that have been altered, defaced or removed void this warranty. This warranty does not cover replacements or repairs necessitated by loss or damage resulting from any cause beyond the control of PCI.
Marking or retained images (sometimes called “burn-in”) resulting from the display of fixed images on video display products are not defects and are not covered under this warranty.
THIS EXPRESS, LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT WILL PANASONIC CANADA INC. BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.
In certain instances, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above limitations and exclusions may not be applicable.
