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.
