The “Owner ID” function allows you to enter a security code and address information so that in the unfortunate event of theft it will help the Police to determine the owner. Details of setting the Owner ID are on page 20.

As a further security precaution, please retain your proof of purchase along with these operating instructions. Space has been made available on page 36 of this instruction book for recording the Serial Number. The Serial Number can be found on the back cover of the set and on the packing carton.

Programme Location Numbers

This television comes to you “factory tuned” to all the major capital city broadcast stations. Adjustments to the tuning should not be necessary. However, if you have to make adjustments, please read these instructions carefully first. Throughout this booklet “Programme Location Numbers” are referred to. These are memory locations into which you can tune television broadcast stations. Any television station can be tuned into any Programme Location Number.

Picture Quality

All televisions are affected by Magnetic Interference. Magnetic interference may come from such things as unshielded motors, moving the TV while it is switched ON, turning off a vacuum cleaner too close to the TV, lightning strikes nearby or many other things.

The interference shows up as coloured patches which appear while the TV is switched ON.

A typical result may look like the picture shown.

Your Panasonic Television is designed to overcome this with the inclusion of a demagnetising (degaussing) function.

To activate this feature, simply switch your Television OFF, or into Standby for 30 minutes and then switch it back ON.

If the television is to be left unattended for extended periods (several days or more), turn the power off to the unit. DO NOT leave in Standby mode.

This will ensure that you enjoy the picture clarity as it was meant to be.

Refer to page 19 for operating instructions for the GEOMAGNETIC feature.
