■Set up

Do not place the Plasma TV on sloped or unstable surfaces. The Plasma TV may fall off or tip over.

Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma TV.

If water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign objects get inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in fire or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, please consult an Authorized Service Center.

This Plasma TV is for use only with the following optional accessories. Use with any other type of optional accessories may cause instability which could result in the possibility of injury. (All of the following accessories are manufactured by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.)

•Wall-hanging bracket (Vertical) TY-WK42PV3U (TH-50PZ700U, TH-58PZ700U)

•Wall-hanging bracket (Angled) TY-WK42PR3U (TH-50PZ700U)

Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set-up. Two or more people are required to install and remove the

television. If two people are not present, the television may be dropped, and personal injury may result.

Transport only in upright position!

Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

■AC Power Supply Cord

The Plasma TV is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 60 Hz. 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.

The included power cord is for use with this unit only.

Do not use any power cord other than that provided with this TV. Doing so may cause fire or electric shocks.

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 to, 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 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 TV, unplug the power cord immediately.

Continued use of the TV under these conditions might cause fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the TV evaluated at an Authorized Service Center. Servicing of the TV by any unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its high voltage dangerous nature.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV 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.

CAUTION

Do not cover the ventilation holes.

Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat, which can cause fire or damage to the Plasma TV.

If using the pedestal, leave a space of 3 15/16 ” (10 cm) or more at the top, left and right, 1 49/64 ” (4.5 cm) or more at the bottom, and 2 3/4 ” (7 cm) or more at the rear.

■When using the Plasma TV

Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma TV.

Moving the TV 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 TV 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 TV.

Do not climb up onto the television or use it as a step. (Young children should be made particularly aware of this caution.)

If the unit falls over or becomes damaged through misuse, injury may result.

The TV will still consume some power as long as the power cord is inserted into the wall outlet.

These models, released as part of the 2007 lineup, showcase advancements in plasma technology, making them standouts in the home theater market.

At the heart of both models lies the Plasma Display Panel (PDP) technology, which allows for deep black levels and vibrant colors. This technology is particularly effective for displaying dynamic content such as movies and sports, providing a more immersive viewing experience. The TH-58PZ700U features a 58-inch screen, while the TH-50PZ700U comes with a 50-inch display, catering to various room sizes and viewing preferences.

One of the key features of these models is the 1080p Full HD resolution. With a pixel resolution of 1920 x 1080, both televisions deliver sharp, detailed images that enhance the viewing experience, especially for high-definition content. This level of resolution ensures that viewers can enjoy every detail, whether watching movies or playing video games.

Another notable technology in the PZ700 series is the Infinite Contrast feature, which enhances contrast ratios by improving the black levels. This allows for a more dynamic range of colors and better definition in darker scenes, elevating the overall picture quality significantly. Additionally, the TH-58PZ700U and TH-50PZ700U incorporate the VIERA Image Viewer, which allows users to view photos and videos directly from an SD card, adding to the versatility of these models.

Both televisions are equipped with advanced image processing technology, including 3D Color Management and 24p Cinema Smoother function, which ensures smooth playback of films by presenting content at the correct frame rate. Furthermore, they offer multiple input options, including HDMI ports, making it easy to connect various devices such as Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and set-top boxes.

The design of these models reflects a modern aesthetic, with sleek bezels and a simple remote control that enhances user experience. They also come with built-in speakers that provide decent audio quality, although many users may opt to enhance their sound experience with an external audio system.

In summary, the Panasonic TH-58PZ700U and TH-50PZ700U are exemplary models that highlight the best of plasma technology. With their impressive 1080p resolution, Infinite Contrast feature, and robust connectivity options, they remain attractive options for consumers seeking high quality and performance in home entertainment systems.
