WARNING!

●

●

●

●

●

●

Failure to use a Panasonic bracket or choosing to mount the unit yourself will be done at the risk of the consumer. Any damage resulting from not having a professional installer mount your unit will void your warranty.

Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set-up.

Incorrect fitting may cause equipment to fall, resulting in injury and product damage.

Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights, floodlights or halogen lights) which typically give off high heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.

Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.

When using the angled-type wall hanging bracket, please ensure that there is sufficient space for the connecting cables not to press against the wall when the TV is tilted forward.

To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use.

Digital teletext services

Digital teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext.

When you switch to a digital teletext service, the images you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.

How to use

In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of digital equipment, some on screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.

For example:

●

When “select” or “go” is displayed ghi jkl mno pqrs tuv wxyz

●

When “◄”, “►”, “▲”, “▼” symbol is displayed

●

When “back key” is displayed

Note

●

As soon as you switch to a digital channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function.

This means that when switching to a digital channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.

While navigating digital teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example “Loading”) to let you know that this is happening.

Analogue teletext services

Analogue teletext services are the text information provided by the broadcasters.

What is FASTEXT mode?

In FASTEXT mode, four differently coloured subjects are situated at the bottom of the screen. To access more information about one of these subjects, press the appropriately coloured button. This facility enables fast access to information on the subjects shown.

What is List mode?

In List mode, four differently coloured page numbers are situated at the bottom of the screen. Each of these numbers can be altered and stored in the TV’s memory. (“Store frequently viewed pages”, p. 23)

Auto mode

Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen. It does this using a four step process (WSS,

Control signal through SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection, or Justify to fill the screen) to determine.

This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.

Letterbox detection: If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to fill the screen.

If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

●

Note

●

The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and bottom of the screen may appear.

If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.

HDMI connection

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.

HDMI allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment.

HDMI-compatible equipment (

∗1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a DVD player, a set top box or a game equipment, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.

About connections, see “External Equipment” (p. 74).
