Warnings and Precautions
•Cabinet and LCD panel care
Remove the mains plug from the wall socket. The
cabinet and LCD panel can be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with mild
detergent and water. Do not use 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 TV set even when it is placed inside a cabinet or between shelves.
•Avoid exposing the TV set
to direct sunlight and other s o u r c e s o f h e a t . To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or naked flame on top or near the TV set.
•DO NOT insert foreign
objects (metal or easily flammable objects).
•DO NOT stand, or place
heavy objects on the unit. Particular care should be taken by families with small children.
•DO NOT place in an unstable location.
•Place in a safe location.
•DO NOT jolt the unit.
Preparation
•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 Audio / Video connection between components
can be made with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance, we recommend 75 Ω 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 will need.
•For optimum quality picture
When the LCD is exposed to light from outdoors or lighting fixtures,
Pixel Statement (LCD)
An image on an LCD panel is created by many dots known as pixels. The more pixels on the panel, the more detailed image can be displayed. To create a colour image each pixel is made up of three tiny coloured dots (1 each of red, green and blue). This gives a total far in excess of one million individual dots manufactured into the panel. Each one of these dots is precisely controlled by the electronics of the TV to produce the picture.
Whilst Panasonic maintains the highest standards in manufacturing technology and processes in the construction of these panels, there are a number of allowable Pixel/Dot failures that would still allow the panel to be defined as a good panel. It is not possible to guarantee absolutely no pixel loss.
