How to use

In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all manufacturers of digital equipment, some on screen commands may not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.

For example:

When "select" or "go" is displayed OK

- When “◀”, “▶”, “▲”, “▼” symbol is displayed

- When "back key" is displayed

- When the key words are displayed on colour bar

red green yellow blue

- When options with numbers are displayed

■To return to TV → TEXT

Note

- As soon as you switch to a digital channel with links to a teletext service, software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function. This means that when switching to a digital channel, you should wait for approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is complete, it will be ignored and you will have to press the TEXT button again when the download is complete.

● While navigating digital teletext, you will find there is a short delay when moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt shown somewhere on the page (for example "Loading") to let you know that this is happening.

Timer Programming

Timer Programming from Menu

The Timer Programming menu allows you to choose programmes that you wish to remind watching or record to the external recorder or the USB HDD. At the correct time, the TV will tune to the correct channel automatically to record even if the TV is in Standby mode.

TV Guide may also be used to set timer programming event (p. 22).

●Timer Programming can store up to 15 events.
- For recording using Timer Programming, the TV must be either On or in standby. For reminders to be displayed, the TV must be On.
● No other channel can be selected while the recording of Timer Programming is in progress.
- It may not be possible to record an encrypted programme (which is copy-protected).
- When recording programmes to the external recorder, be sure to make the proper settings on the recorder connected to the TV.

If a compatible recorder with Q-Link or similar technologies is connected to the TV (p. 86) and the "Link Settings" (p. 34) are correct, no setting of the recorder is required. Also read the manual of the recorder.

• If the recorder is not compatible with Q-Link or similar technologies, set "Q-Link" in the Setup Menu (p. 34) to the connected terminal (AV1 or AV2), and set the timer of the recorder in addition to the Timer Programming on the TV. For preparations of a recorder, read the manual of the recorder.
• When recording programmes to the USB HDD, be sure to register the USB HDD and enable it for recording in the "USB HDD Setup" (p. 62).
• Recordings are always in standard definition composite video via SCART, even if the original programme is in high definition.

■Auto mode

Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen. It does this using a four step process (WSS, Control signal through SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection, or Justify to fill the screen).

This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.

Letterbox detection: If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to fill the screen.

If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

Note

• The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and bottom of the screen may appear.
• If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.

SD Card

• If the SD Card does not meet SD standards, it may cause the TV to malfunction.
• Do not remove the card while the TV is accessing data (this can damage card or TV).
• Do not touch the pins 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 the card or TV may be damaged).
  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 or damaged data or erratic operation of the TV. (Panasonic is not liable for any deterioration or damage of recorded data.)

HDMI connection

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) is the world's first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.

HDMI allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV and the equipment.

HDMI-compatible equipment ^(*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a DVD player, a set top box or a game equipment, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.

For information about connections, see "External Equipment" (p. 92).

Applicable HDMI features ■

Input audio signal : 2ch Linear PCM (sampling frequencies - 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz)

Display panel, Cabinet, Stand

Regular care:

Gently wipe the surface of the display panel, cabinet, or stand by using a soft cloth to clean the dirt or fingerprints. For stubborn dirt:

Dampen a soft cloth with clean water or diluted neutral detergent (1 part detergent to 100 parts water). Then wring the cloth and wipe the surface. Finally, wipe away all the moisture.

Caution

• Do not use a hard cloth or rub the surface too hard. This may cause scratches on the surface.
  Take care not to subject the TV's surfaces to water or detergent more than requires. A liquid inside the TV could lead to product failure.
  ● Take care not to subject the surfaces to insect repellent, solvent, thinner or other volatile substances. This may degrade surface quality or cause peeling of the paint.
• The surface of the display panel is specially treated and may be easily damaged. Take care not to tap or scratch the surface with your fingernail or other hard objects.
• Do not allow the cabinet or stand to make contact with a rubber or PVC substance for a long time. This may degrade surface quality.

Mains plug

Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals. Moisture and dust may lead to fire or electrical shock.
