Cautions in handling SD Card:
• Do not remove the card while the unit is accessing data (this can damag\
e card or unit).
• Do not touch the terminals on the back of the card.
• Do not subject the card to a high pressure or impact.
• Insert the card in the correct direction (otherwise, card may be damage\
d).
• Electrical interference, static electricity, or erroneous operation may damage the data or card.
• Back up the recorded data at regular intervals in case of deteriorated o\
r damaged data or erratic
operation of the unit. (Panasonic is not liable for any deterioration o\
r damage of recorded data.)
Side Bar
Do not display a picture in 4:3 mode for an extended period, as this can\
 cause “Image 
retention” to remain on either or both sides of the display field.
To reduce the risk of such “
Image retention”, change the brightness of the side bars.
• The side bar may flash (alternate black/white) depending on the pictur\
e. Using

• If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI ter\
minal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2).
• When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to t\
he audio input terminal.
• Audio settings can be made on the “HDMI 1 in” or “HDMI 2 in”\
 menu screen. (p. 26)
Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (L.PCM):  48 kHz, 44.1 kH\
z, 32 kHz
  (*1):  The HDMI logo is displayed on an HDMI-compliant device. 
  (*2):  Enquire at your local digital equipment retailer shop.

• All signals are reformatted before being displayed on the screen.
• If the connected device has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspec\
t ratio to “16:9”.
• This HDMI connector is “type A”.
•  These HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright protection.
• A device having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input \
terminal of either “COMPONENT”, “S VIDEO”, or 
“VIDEO” to receive analog signals.
• The HDMI input terminal can be used with only the following image signal\
s:  480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p.

Cautions in handling SD Card:
• Do not remove the card while the unit is accessing data (this can damag\
e card or unit).
• Do not touch the terminals on the back of the card.
• Do not subject the card to a high pressure or impact.
• Insert the card in the correct direction (otherwise, card may be damage\
d).
• Electrical interference, static electricity, or erroneous operation may damage the data or card.
• Back up the recorded data at regular intervals in case of deteriorated o\
r damaged data or erratic
operation of the unit. (Panasonic is not liable for any deterioration o\
r damage of recorded data.)
Side Bar
Do not display a picture in 4:3 mode for an extended period, as this can\
 cause “Image 
retention” to remain on either or both sides of the display field.
To reduce the risk of such “
Image retention”, change the brightness of the side bars.
• The side bar may flash (alternate black/white) depending on the pictur\
e. Using 
Cinema mode will reduce such flashing (See below).

Maintenance
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, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in diluted neutral detergent (1 part det\
ergent diluted by 
100 times the amount of water) and then wring the cloth to remove exces\
s liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface 
of the display panel, then wipe it evenly with a dry cloth of the same t\
ype 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; o\
therwise, the quality of the surface may be 
adversely affected.
First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.
Cabinet
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 d\
ry.
  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, a\
nd 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.
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 neutral detergent has been added and then wipe w\
ith a dry cloth. 
  Do not use products such as solvents, thinner, or household wax for cleaning, as they can damage the surface  coating. (If using a chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions \
supplied 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.)

by products not supplied by the warrantor, or failures which result from accidents, misuse, abuse, neglect, bug 
infestation, mishandling, misapplication, alteration, faulty installatio\

controls, improper maintenance, power line surge, lightning damage, modi\
fication, or commercial use (such as in a

hts which vary from state 
to state. If a problem with this product develops during or after the Li\
