FOR YOUR SAFETY PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY

This appliance is supplied with a fitted three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 5 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. If the fuse is replaced then the replacement fuse must be 5 amp rated and should be approved by ASTA or BSI to BS136

ASA

Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

If the fitted plug has a removable fuse cover you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced. If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained.

Replacement fuse covers can be purchased through your local Panasonic dealer.

The plug fitted to this appliance incorporates a mains filter circuit. If this is removed or replaced with a non-filtered mains plug this television will no longer meet the European standards for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). If the fitted plug is unsuitable for the socket outlet in your home an appropriate adapter should be used.

Nonetheless, if the fitted plug is replaced, the fuse should be taken out and the cut-off plug disposed of safely. There is danger of severe electrical shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13amp socket.

If a new plug is to be fitted please observe the wiring code as shown below. If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.

AV (Audio / Video) is a dedicated input for VCR's, Satellite Receivers and other Audio / Video equipment.

This TV is capable of switching to AV operation automatically if the equipment connected provides a switching signal to the SCART socket.

In this condition the display will show EC and it is possible to change the programme position of the TV without changing the displayed picture (This is not possible when using the front AV connections).

Ancillary equipment and cables shown are not supplied with this TV set.

Do not connect a computer with TTL output (5V) to this TV set.

The TV's speaker will be automatically disconnected whilst the headphones are connected.

Do not connect front and rear AV inputs simultaneously, as the sound and pictures will be mixed.

Your new TV is supplied with programme position '0' designed specifically to receive an RF signal from a VCR.

However, depending on the VCR's setting you may not receive any picture or sound from the VCR on programme position '0' of the TV. It will be necessary to either adjust the RF channel of the VCR or to adjust the tuning of the TV's programme position '0' or both until the RF output channel of the VCR is received.

It is intended that this advice is used in conjunction with the instruction books for your ancillary equipment.

If you are going to use a Satellite Receiver and a VCR, it is important, to avoid tuning problems, that they are both tuned to output their signals on different channels. For example, if your VCR is tuned to output channel 32, your Satellite Receiver could be set to output channel 34. Refer to your Satellite Receiver and VCR instruction books for precise tuning information.

Before calling for service, determine the symptoms and make a few simple checks as shown below. For service please contact your local Panasonic dealer quoting the model number and serial number (both are located at the rear of the TV).

TV Games / Home Computers

Extended use of TV games or home computers with any television set can cause a permanent 'shadow' on the screen. This type of irreversible picture tube damage can be limited by observing the following points:

• Reduce the brightness and contrast levels to a minimum viewing level.
• Do not operate the television set for a continuous period of time while using TV games or home computers.

This type of picture tube damage is not an operating defect and as such is not covered by the Panasonic warranty.
