Set up
Do not place the Plasma TV on sloped or unstable surfaces.
The Plasma TV may fall off or tip over.
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.
This Plasma TV is for use only with the following optional
accessories. Use with any other type of optional accessories may
cause instability which could result in the possibility of injury.
(All of the following accessories are manufactured by
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.)
Wall-hanging bracket (Vertical) TY-WK42PV3U
Wall-hanging bracket (Angled) TY-WK42PR2U
TY-WK42PR3U
Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set-up.
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.
Transport only in upright position!
Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or
downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.
AC Power Supply Cord
The Plasma TV is designed to operate on 120 V AC, 60 Hz.
Securely insert the power cord plug as far as it will go.
If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may be generated which
could cause fire. If the plug is damaged or the wall socket
plate is loose, they should not be used.
The included power cord is for use with this unit only.
Do not use any power cord other than that provided with this TV.
Doing so may cause fire or electric shocks.
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.
Doing so may cause electric shocks.
Do not do anything that might damage the power cable. When
disconnecting the power cable, hold the plug, not the cable.
Do not make any modifications to, place heavy objects on,
place near hot objects, heat, bend, twist or forcefully pull the
power cable. Doing so may cause damage to the power cable
which can cause fire or electric shock. If damage to the cable
is suspected, have it repaired at an Authorized Service Center.
If problems occur during use
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound), or if
smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the Plasma
TV, unplug the power cord immediately.
Continued use of the TV under these conditions might cause
fire or permanent damage to the unit. Have the TV evaluated
at an Authorized Service Center. Servicing of the TV by any
unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due to its
high voltage dangerous nature.
If water or foreign objects get inside the Plasma TV, if the
Plasma TV is dropped, or if the cabinet becomes damaged,
disconnect the power cord plug immediately.
A short may occur, which could cause fire. Contact an
Authorized Service Center for any repairs that need to be
made.
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat, which can
cause fire or damage to the Plasma TV.
If using the pedestal, leave a space of 3 15/16 ” (10 cm) or
more at the top, left and right, 1 49/64 ” (4.5 cm) or more at
the bottom, and 2 3/4 ” (7 cm) or more at the rear.
When using the Plasma TV
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the Plasma
TV.
Moving the TV with its cables attached might damage the
cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet as a safety
precaution before carrying out any cleaning.
Electric shocks can result if this is not done.
Clean the power cable regularly to prevent it from
becoming dusty.
Built-up dust on the power cord plug can increase humidity
which might damage the insulation and cause fire. Unplug the
cord from the wall outlet and clean it with a dry cloth.
This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays; therefore, it may
affect other infrared communication equipment.
Install your infrared sensor in a place away from direct or
reflected light from your Plasma TV.
Do not climb up onto the television or use it as a step.
(Young children should be made particularly aware of this
caution.)
If the unit falls over or becomes damaged through misuse,
injury may result.
The TV will still consume some power as long as the power
cord is inserted into the wall outlet.

If you use the pedestal while it is physically damaged, personal injury may result. Contact your nearest Panasonic
Dealer immediately.
During set-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 TV, and it might fall over and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
Use the accessory fall-prevention brackets to secure the TV.
If the TV is knocked or children climb onto the pedestal with the TV installed, the TV may fall over and personal
injury may result.
Warning
Do not disassemble or modify the pedestal.
Otherwise the TV may fall over and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
Check you have all the items shown.

Maintenance
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 diluted neutral detergent (1 part detergent 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.
First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.
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.)
