• Make sure that the batteries are fitted the correct way round.
• Do not mix old batteries with new batteries. Remove old, exhausted batteries immediately.
• Do not mix different battery types, i.e. Alkaline and Manganese or use rechargeable (Ni - Cad) batteries.

• This TV set is designed to operate on DC 15V.
• To prevent damage which might result in electric shock

or fire, do not expose this TV set to rain or excessive
moisture. This TV must not be exposed to dripping
or splashing water and objects filled with liquid, such
as vases, must not be placed on top of or above the
TV.

•  WARNING : HIGH VOLTAGE!!!
   Do not remove the rear cover as live parts are

accessible when it is removed. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.

• TV Games / Home Computers
   Extended use of TV games or home computers with

any television set can cause a permanent ‘shadow’
on the screen. This type of irreversible LCD panel
damage, can be limited by observing the following
points:

• Reduce the brightness and contrast levels to a minimum

viewing level.

• Do not allow a still picture to be displayed for an extended

period, as this can cause a permanent after-image to
remain on the LCD TV screen.

• Examples of still pictures include logos, video games,

computer images, teletext and images displayed in 16:9
mode.

• This type of LCD panel damage, is not an operating defect,

and as such is not covered by the Panasonic warranty.

• The On/Off switch on this model does not fully

disconnect the TV from the mains supply. Remove
the mains plug from the wall socket before connecting
or disconnecting any leads, or if the TV set is not
used for a prolonged period of time.

Note:
If the set is not switched off when the TV station
stops transmitting, it will automatically go to stand-by
mode after 30 minutes. This function will not operate
when the TV is in AV mode.
• 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 television receiver
even when it is placed inside a cabinet or between
shelves.

• Avoid exposing the TV set to direct sunlight and other

sources of heat. To prevent fire, never place any type
of candle or naked flame on top or near the TV set.
