Frequently Asked Questions - Viera TX-P50VT50J PANASONIC

How to prevent image retention on the plasma screen?

Avoid displaying static images (logos, channel numbers, 4:3 bars) for long periods. The TV automatically lowers contrast and dims the screen after a few minutes of no signal or operation to reduce retention. This is not a malfunction and is not covered by warranty.

The remote control does not work. What should I check?

Check batteries are installed correctly (polarity + -) and are not exhausted. Ensure there are no obstacles between remote and TV sensor, and point directly within 7 m and 30° angle. Avoid bright light shining on sensor. Replace batteries if needed.

Can I register the 3D Eyewear if it fails?

Yes. Turn on the TV, place eyewear within 50 cm, and slide the power switch to MODE for over 2 seconds until registration starts. The green LED lights for 3 seconds on success. If failed, turn off TV and retry.

Why is there no sound or low volume?

Check if Mute is active (press MUTE button). Increase volume. For analogue channels, set MPX to Mono if sound is distorted. Ensure external equipment audio settings are correct.

How to connect the TV to the internet?

Connect via wired Ethernet cable (LAN) or wireless (built-in Wi-Fi). During first setup, select Wired or Wireless, search for access points, enter encryption key if needed, and run connection test. For WPS, press WPS button on router and select Connect on TV.

What to do if 'Faulty dish' message appears?

Check satellite cable connection for short circuits or loose connections. Turn TV off with Mains power switch, then on again. If message persists, consult a dish installer.

Can I record TV programmes?

Yes, to USB HDD or SD Card. Format USB HDD in Recording Setup first. Use Timer Programming to schedule recordings. For external recorder, connect via SCART (Q-Link) or HDMI and set Link Settings.

How to clean the TV screen?

Unplug TV. Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe dirt. For stubborn marks, dampen cloth with water or diluted neutral detergent (1:100), wring well, wipe, then dry. Do not use solvents or hard cloths; avoid liquid entering TV.

What does 'Overcurrent error' mean?

A connected USB device may draw too much current. Remove the USB device, turn TV off with Mains switch, then on again. Check for foreign objects in USB ports.

Why does the TV go into Standby automatically?

Auto power standby activates if no signal or operation for 30 minutes in Analogue mode, or if Off Timer is set. Also, if no signal for a few minutes in DVB/AV mode, contrast lowers to prevent retention but may trigger standby. Check Timer settings.

Do not display any still part of the image for a long period

In such cases the still part of the image remains dimly on the plasma screen ("image retention"). This is not considered a malfunction and is not covered by the warranty.

Typical still image parts:

• Channel number, channel logo and other logos
• Still or moving pictures viewed in 4:3 or 14:9 aspect ratio

• Video games
• Images from PC

To avoid image retention, the contrast is lowered automatically and the screen becomes dim after a few minutes if no signals are sent or no operations are performed. (p. 116)

■ Auto mode

Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen 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.
