Safety Precautions
CAUTION
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.)
•
Pedestal (included) ................................................... TY-ST42PA20
•
Wall-hanging bracket (vertical) ................................. TY-WK42PV2W
Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set-up.
When using the Plasma TV
Do not bring your hands, face or objects close to the ventilation holes of the Plasma TV.
•
Top of the Plasma TV is usually very hot due to the high temperature of exhaust air being released through the ventilation holes. Burns or personal injuries can happen if any body parts are brought too close. Placing any object near the top of the
TV could also result in heat damages to the object as well as to the TV if its ventilation holes are blocked.
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.
Cleaning and maintenance
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
•
If the surface is particularly dirty, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in a weak detergent solution and then wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface of the display panel, then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth, of the same type, until the surface is dry.
•
Do not scratch or hit the surface of the panel with fingernails or other hard objects. Furthermore, avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the surface may be adversely affected.
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
•
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in a weak detergent solution and then wring the cloth dry. Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet, and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth.
•
Do not allow any detergent to come into direct contact with the surface of the Plasma TV.
If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.
•
Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents and thinner, otherwise the quality of the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. Furthermore, do not leave it for long periods in contact with articles made from rubber or PVC.
Note:
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 Plasma TV.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode.

Cable Connection
Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD Connection
This television is capable of displaying 1080i and 480p DTV signals when connected to a DTV Tuner set-top-box (STB). In order to view DTV programming, the STB must be connected to the component video inputs (Y, P
B
, P
R
) of the television.
A DTV signal must be available in your area. Select the output of the STB to either 1080i or 480p.
This television also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which de-interlaces the NTSC signal and progressively scans the image. This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated with interlaced TV pictures.
Use this diagram to connect the Panasonic DTV-STB (Digital TV-Set-Top Box) or DVD Player to the back of your TV.

BBE VIVA / BBE
The distinguishing feature of BBE VIVA is its maintenance of accurate audio imagery. Ordinary 3D surround systems force the sound out to the left and right, affecting the center channel. As a result it may become hard to hear people's voices, or the center audio may completely disappear. BBE VIVA reproduces vocals in music and voices in movies accurately and distinctly.
BBE VIVA
This maintains a constant level of sound that is faithful to the original, producing
Hi-Fi 3D sound that cannot be obtained with other types of 3D Surround.
BBE
Use special signal processing to accurately reproduce the "attack" of each sound, in order to make it immediate and superbly faithful to the original, while retaining its natural feel.

Infrared Codes Index
The remote control is capable of operating many brands of peripheral equipment. Refer to pages 54 and 55 for programming procedures.
Note: The remote control memory is limited and therefore some models may not operate. The remote control is not designed to control all features available in all models.
Note: After entering the proper infrared code, press the desired Mode Selection Button on the remote control. Refer to pages 20 and 59 - 60 for details on operating peripheral equipment using the remote control.

Check
Some parts of the screen do not light up.
The plasma display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a malfunction.
After-images appear
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 Plasma Display.
Examples of still pictures include logos, video games, computer images, teletext and images displayed in 4:3 mode.
Note:
The permanent after-image on the Plasma Display resulting from fixed image use is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the Warranty.
This product is not designed to display fixed images for extended periods of time.
