Panasonic TY-ST55PE9 / TY-ST43PE9 Pedestal Operating Instructions

Safety Precautions

WARNING

⚠ Do not disassemble or modify the pedestal.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

⚠ Keep the fixing screw out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

In case of swallowing of the fixing screws, consult a doctor immediately.

⚠ Do not install the display vertically using the pedestal.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

Install the pedestal at the hole position where the distance between the base and the bottom surface of the display is the smallest. (See page 14).

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

CAUTION

⚠ Do not use any displays other than those given in the catalogue.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

⚠ Do not climb on or hang from the pedestal or attached equipment.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury. (Be particularly careful that young children obey this caution.)

⚠ Do not use the pedestal if it has become bent or deformed for any reason.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

⚠ Do not block the ventilation holes of display. When using the pedestal, do not block the space between the bottom surface of the display and the floor surface.

Otherwise heat may build up inside and cause a fire.

⚠ Do not use in places with high humidity.

After prolonged use, the pedestal may warp or become deformed, reducing its strength. This may lead to the unit falling over and becoming damaged, which may also result in personal injury.

When installing the display, ensure there is at least a 10 cm (3.9 inches) space above and to the sides of, and a 5 cm (2.0 inches) space to the rear of the display.

Failing to do so may result in a fire.

Two people are required to install and remove the display from the pedestal.

The display may fall and cause injury.

During setting-up, make sure that all screws are securely tightened.

If assembly is not performed correctly, the pedestal will not be able to support the weight of the display. This may result in the display falling over and becoming damaged, which may result in personal injury.

For installation, use the special-purpose constituent parts.

Otherwise, the display may fall off the wall, possibly causing injury.

Set up on a stable, level surface.

Failure to do so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

Keep the unit away from direct sunlight and heating equipment.

Failure to do so may cause warping, deformation, or degradation of materials which may result in a loss of strength that may cause the equipment to fall over or break and cause injury.

Use the overturn/fall-prevention accessory to secure the Display.

If an earthquake occurs or children climb onto the pedestal with the Display installed, the unit may overturn or fall over, resulting in personal injury.

After installing the pedestal, do not subject the display's right/left/top edge to any excessive force or physical shock.

Doing so may cause the unit to fall over and become damaged, which may result in personal injury.

Requests regarding handling

• Exercise care when selecting the location for the display because it may discolor or deform due to light or heat if it is placed where it is exposed to direct sunlight, or near a heater.
• Clean the pedestal by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth (such as cotton or flannel). If the bracket is very dirty, remove the dirt using a neutral detergent diluted in water, and then wipe it clean with a dry cloth. Do not use benzene, thinner, or furniture wax as this may cause the coating to peel. (For information on cleaning the display, see the display's instruction manual. If using a chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions supplied with the cloth.)
• Do not affix adhesive tape or stickers to the product. Doing so may dirty the surface of the pedestal. Do not allow long-term contact with rubber, vinyl products or the like. (Doing so will cause deterioration.)
• Do not subject the display to any excessive force or physical shock.

Assembly Procedure

1. Preparing the display

Installation must be carried out by at least two people.

Spreading out a soft cloth, etc., place the display with the screen facing down.

⚠ Be careful not to damage the display screen, for example, by dragging it.

⚠ When placing the display with the screen facing down, or lifting it up, never hold or put pressure on the LCD screen. The LCD screen may be damaged.

2. Attaching the pedestal tube

1) Place the pedestal tubes B to fit the holes at the back of the display.

Locate the nuts inside. (The side with the nuts comes to the downside.)

Use the hole position where the distance between the base and the bottom surface of the display is the smallest when the base is attached.

3. Attaching the base

Base: Position the convex part side at the front side of the display.

1) Insert the base A to the pedestal tube.

Make sure that the orientation of the front side and back side of the base are correct. Be careful not to drop.

2) Fix the bases A (upper part) with the 2 base installation screws C.

Tighten the base installation screws from the outside of the pedestal tube. Tightening torque: 1.2 to 1.5 N•m

3) Using the 2 base installation screws D, fix the bases A (lower part) together with the 2 overturn-prevention belts 1 and the 2 spacers 3.

Tighten the base installation screws from the outside of the pedestal tube. Tightening torque: 1.2 to 1.5 N•m

4) To stand the display vertically.

Make sure to hold the display with more than two people.

4. Display Overturn-Prevention

[For safety reasons, always use the overturn/fall prevention accessories]

The equipment may overturn in the event of an earthquake etc. Therefore, always use the overturn/fall prevention accessories.

*The details in this section indicate how to reduce any damage or injury caused by this equipment overturning or falling due to an earthquake. However, there is no guarantee that the overturn/fall prevention accessories will be effective in all earthquake situations.

Fix the display both on the board and the wall.

To fix to the board

1) Fix the 2 overturn-prevention belts 1 attached to the pedestal tube to the TV board with the 2 wood screws 2.

To assemble to the board, use the prepared holes. If there are no prepared holes, drill new holes to the center of the base board width.

To fix to the wall

Use a commercially available, sturdy wire to secure it firmly to a wall or pillar.

Pass the sturdy wire through the top hole of the pedestal tube.

If the display is fixed to the pedestal tube through the top hole of the pedestal tube, pass the string or wire through the second hole.

5. Removing the pedestal

Remove the display in an opposite way of “Assembly Procedure” after removing the power plug, cables and overturn-prevention items.

Please keep the removed items carefully for the time when assembling again.
