WELCOME
Dear Panasonic Customer,
Welcome to the Panasonic family of customers.
We hope that you have many years of enjoyment from your new digital LCD television. This is a very
advanced television; however, the Quick Start Guide will allow you to use the TV as quickly as
possible. You can then read the instructions completely and retain them for future reference.
Analogue and Digital television --- what are they?
Analogue transmission is the system that has been used for many years for broadcasting television
programmes. With continuous improvements in technology it is now possible to transmit
programmes in a digital format, allowing clearer pictures, more stations and other services to be
displayed on screen. Digital television is provided in three different ways; it can be sent along a cable
connection direct to your house, broadcast from a satellite, or broadcast using traditional land based
(terrestrial) transmitters. The first two options require you to have an extra `set top box' decoder and in
the case of satellite, a receiving dish mounted outdoors. While allowing you to receive traditional
analogue transmissions in the usual way, this television can also receive terrestrial digital services
using an integrated DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) decoder. This allows you to enjoy the new era
of digital terrestrial television, including future interactive services, without the need for a `set top box'
or satellite dish --- your current roof or loft mounted antenna is all you need.
DVB is a trademark of the DVB Digital Video Broadcasting Project (1991 to 1996).

FOR YOUR SAFETY PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT 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 BS1362.
ASA
Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.
Example 1
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 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 13 amp 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. Example 2
How to replace the fuse (for plug type shown in example 1) :
Lift out the removable fuse compartment with a screwdriver and replace the fuse, then refit securely into the
mains plug (see example 1).
How to replace the fuse (for plug type shown in example 2) :
Lift open the fuse compartment, in the mains plug, with a screwdriver, and replace the fuse,
then press the fuse cover down securely (see example 2).
IMPORTANT :-- The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code :--
BLUE : NEUTRAL BROWN : LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond to the markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows :--
1. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal marked `N' or coloured black.
2. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal marked `L' or coloured red.
IMPORTANT NOTE : Under no circumstances should either of these wires be connected to the Earth terminal of the three pin plug,
marked with the letter `E' or the earth symbol.
