Answers

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.

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.

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”

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

Some menu items are grayed-out and unable to be selected. Why?

How do I reset my TV to all factory defaults and settings?

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”.

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.

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.
