Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
QuestionsAnswers
Why doesn’t the remote control 
work?
Check that the batteries are fresh, are of the same type 
and are installed with the correct polarity (+ & -). 
To operate other devices, such as changing channels when 
using Cable or Satellite boxes, or operating non-Panasonic 
Blu-ray players, use the remote supplied with the device.
Why is there no picture 
or just a blue, black or snowy 
screen being displayed?
Ensure that the power cord is plugged in and the TV is 
turned on (front red LED light should be on, not blinking)
Press the INPUT button on the remote to select the correct 
input source.
Ensure all connections are correct and secure.
When using external video source, such as a Cable/
Satellite box or DVD player, ensure that the device is on 
and functioning correctly.
Press MENU on the TV’s remote control. If the menu is 
displayed, then the TV is working; recheck above steps.
Why does my picture quality not 
look like it is in High Definition?
Press INFO button on remote to confirm type of signal 
being received.HD signal should be 720p, 1080i or 1080p.
Select a High Definition channel from HD source (Cable, 
Satellite,Fiber optic or antenna).
HD channels sometimes broadcast non-HD content.
Ensure that HD source (HD box, Blu-ray player, etc.) is 
connected to TV via either HDMI or Component cable and 
set to output HD video signal.
Why did the network connection 
fail? If connection fails, contact your Internet service provider or 
router/modem manufacturer to check for firewall, content 
filter or proxy settings that may block TV from accessing 
the Internet.
How can I hear the TV's sound 
through my Home Theater?
If your Home Theater has an HDMI-ARC Out, then connect 
it to the TV's HDMI 2 (ARC) input using an HDMI cable.
If HDMI-ARC is not available, then connect the TV’s 
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT to the Home Theater using an optical 
cable or connect to the headphone jack.

Care and Cleaning
First, unplug the power cord plug from the wall outlet.
Display panel
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the pane\
l surface gently using only a cleaning 
cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. 
If the surface is particularly dirty after cleaning up the dust, soak a \
soft, lint-free cloth in diluted, mild liquid 
dish soap (1 part mild liquid dish soap diluted by 100 times the amount\
 of water), and then wring the cloth 
to remove excess liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface of the displ\
ay 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 th\
inner; otherwise, the quality of the 
surface may be adversely affected.
Cabinet
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in diluted, mild liquid dish soap and then wring the cl\
oth dry. 
Use this cloth to wipe the cabinet and then wipe it dry with a dry cloth\
. 
Do not allow any mild liquid dish soap to come into direct contact with \
the surface of the TV. If water 
droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result. 
Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents, a\
nd thinner; otherwise, the quality of 
the cabinet surface may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off. 
Do not let articles made from rubber or PVC be in contact with the TV for long periods of time.
Pedestal
Cleaning
Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. If the unit is particularly di\
rty, clean it using a cloth soaked with 
water to which a small amount of mild liquid dish soap has been added an\
d then wipe with a dry cloth.Do 
not use products such as solvents, thinner, or household wax for cleaning, as they can damage the surface 
coating. 
Note: If using a chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions suppl\
ied with the cloth. 
Do not attach sticky tape or labels, as they can make the surface of the\
 pedestal dirty. Do not allow long-
term contact with rubber, vinyl products, or the like. (Doing so will cause deterioration.)
Power cord plug
Wipe the plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. 
Note: Moisture and dust can lead to fire or electrical shock.
