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-WK65PV7
• Pedestal   TY-ST65PV500
• Speakers   TY-SP65PV600Always 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.
vAC Power Supply CordThe Plasma TV is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 50/60 
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.
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.

vIf problems occur during useIf 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.
vWhen using the Plasma TVBe 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.
