To prevent personal injury or death, follow these warnings: ● Install the Plasma TV in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommended pedestal or stand, corresponding hardware and installation instructions. This Plasma TV is for use only with the following optional accessories. Use with any other type of optional accessories may cause instability. The following accessories are manufactured by Panasonic Corporation.• Wall-hanging bracket (Angled) TY-WK4P1RW (TC-P42S60, TC-P50S60) TY-WK5P1RW (TC-P55S60, TC-P60S60) TY-WK6P1RW (TC-P65S60) ● Be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out the installation and set-up. Two or more people are required to install or remove the television. ● Some wall mounts (wall-hanging brackets) are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block constructions. Ask your dealer or licensed contractor to properly secure the wall-hanging bracket. ● Do not route the TV’s power cord inside the wall. The power cord was not designed for in-wall mounting.Doing so can lead to fire hazard. ● Do not place the Plasma TV or its stand on a sloped or unstable surface. The Plasma TV may fall or tip over. ● Do not support the Plasma TV on a non-specified pedestal. ● Do not place the Plasma TV on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. ● Do not climb or allow children to climb on the Plasma TV ● Place or install the Plasma TV where it cannot be pushed, pulled over or knocked down. ● Route all cords and cables such that they cannot be tripped over or pulled by curious children. ● 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. ● In the unlikely event that you receive a shock from this product, it is possible that your household outlet may be wired improperly. Have an electrician verify that the TV’s outlet is properly wired. If the symptom persists, have the TV serviced by a qualified authorized technician. ● To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times ■AC Power Supply Cord

To prevent fire or electric shock:

● The Plasma TV is designed to operate on a 120 V AC, 60 Hz service. Insert the power cord plug as far as it will go into the wall socket. If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may generate, which could cause a fire. ● The included power cord is for use with this unit only. ● Do not use any power cord other than that provided with this TV. ● Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands. ● Do not do anything that might damage the power supply cord. ● When disconnecting the power supply cord, hold the plug, not the cord. ● Do not use the power supply cord if the plug or cord is damaged. Replace the cord or contact your Authorized Service Center. ● Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong AC plug adapters to connect your TV’s plug to the wall outlet. Doing so will defeat the TV plug’s safety feature, which can lead to a shock hazard. If the wall outlet does not accommodate a 3-prong plug, have a qualified electrician replace your outlet and check the associated wiring. ● If water or an object gets inside the Plasma TV, if the Plasma TV is dropped, or if the enclosure becomes damaged, unplug the power supply cord immediately. A short-circuit may occur, which could cause a fire. Contact an Authorized Service Center for an evaluation. ■Radio waves

First, unplug the power cord plug from the wall outlet.

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 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 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.

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 cloth 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, and 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.

Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. If the unit is particularly dirty, clean it using a cloth soaked with water
