Attaching the pedestal to the plasma television
Caution
·Do not use any television or displays other than those given in this manual. Otherwise the unit may fall over and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
·Do not use the pedestal if it becomes warped or physically damaged. If you use the pedestal while it is physically damaged, personal injury may result. Contact your nearest Panasonic Dealer immediately.
·During setting-up, make sure that all screws are securely tightened. If sufficient care is not taken to ensure screws are properly tightened during assembly, the pedestal will not be strong enough to support the plasma television, and it might fall over and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
·Use the accessory fall-prevention brackets to secure the plasma television. If the unit is knocked or children climb onto the pedestal with the Plasma TV installed, the plasma television may fall over and personal injury may result.
·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.

Technical Information

HDMI connection
HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV unit and the devices. HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box or a DVD player, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.
····HDMI is the world's first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard. If the external device has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2). When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal. Audio settings can be made on the "HDMI1 in" or "HDMI2 in" menu screen. (p. 20) Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz (*1): The HDMI logo is displayed on an HDMI-compliant device. (*2): Enquire at your local digital device retailer shop.
····· Caution Use with a PC is not assumed. All signals are reformatted before being displayed on the screen. If the connected device has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to "16:9". This HDMI connector is "type A". 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 signals: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p.
·Match the output setting of the digital device. For details of the applicable HDMI signals, see below.

Maintenance
First, unplug the AC cord plug from the wall outlet. Display panel
The front of the display panel has been specially treated. Wipe the panel 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 a weak detergent solution and then wring the cloth to remove excess liquid. Use this cloth to wipe the surface of the display 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 thinner; 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 a weak detergent solution and then wring the cloth dry.
·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 and 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 dirty, clean it using a cloth soaked with water to which a small amount of neutral detergent has been added, and 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. (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.)
