Set up

Do not place the Plasma TV on sloped or unstable surfaces.

The Plasma TV may fall off or tip over.

Do not place any objects on top of the Plasma TV.

If water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign objects get

inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in fire

or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the Plasma

TV, please consult an Authorized Service Center.

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.)

• Wall-hanging bracket (Vertical) TY-WK42PV3U

• Wall-hanging bracket (Angled) TY-WK42PR2U

TY-WK42PR3U

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

Two or more people are required to install and remove the

television. If two people are not present, the television may

be dropped, and personal injury may result.

Transport only in upright position!

Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or

downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.

■

AC Power Supply Cord

The Plasma TV is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 60 Hz.

Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will go.

If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated which

could cause fire. If the plug is damaged or the wall socket

plate is loose, they should not be used.

The included power cord is for use with this unit only.

Do not use any power cord other than that provided with this TV.

Doing so may cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.

Doing so may cause electric shocks.

Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When

disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.

Do not make any modifications to, place heavy objects on,

place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully pull the

power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable

which can cause fire or electric shock. If damage to the cable

is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.

■

If problems occur during use

If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if

smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma

TV, unplug the power cord immediately.

Continued use of the TV under these conditions might cause

fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the TV evaluated

at an Authorized Service Center. Servicing of the TV by any

unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its

high voltage dangerous nature.

If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the

Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged,

disconnect the power cord plug immediately.

A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an

Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be

made.

Do not cover the ventilation holes.

Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat, which can

cause fire or damage to the Plasma TV.

If using the pedestal, leave a space of 3 15/16” (10 cm) or

more at the top, left and right, 2 3/8” (6 cm) or more at the

bottom, and 2 3/4” (7 cm) or more at the rear.

■

When using the Plasma TV

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.

Do not climb up onto the television or use it as a step.

(Young children should be made particularly aware of this

caution.)

If the unit falls over or becomes damaged through misuse,

injury may result.

The TV will still consume some power as long as the power

cord is inserted into the wall outlet.
