SSID is a name for identifying a particular wireless network for transmission.  
Do not subject the built-in wireless LAN to high temperatures, direct sunlight or moisture.  
Data transmitted and received over radio waves may be intercepted and monitored.  
The built-in wireless LAN uses 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands. To avoid malfunctions or slow response caused  
by radio wave interference, keep the TV away from the devices such as other wireless LAN devices, microwaves,  
mobile phones and the devices that use 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals when using the built-in wireless LAN.  
When noises occur due to the static electricity, etc., the TV might stop operating for the protection of the devices. In  
this case, turn the TV off with Mains power On / Off switch, then turn it on again.

p
Failure to use a Panasonic bracket or choosing to mount the unit yourself will be done at the risk of the consumer.  
Always be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out set up. Incorrect fitting may cause equipment to fall, resulting  
in injury and product damage. Any damage resulting from not having a professional installer mount your unit will void  
your warranty.  
When any optional accessories or wall hanging brackets are used, always ensure that the instructions provided are  
followed fully.  
Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights or halogen lights) which typically give off high  
heat. Doing so may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.  
Take care when fixing wall brackets to the wall. Wall mounted equipment shall not be grounded by metal within the  
wall. Always ensure that there are no electrical cables or pipes in the wall before hanging bracket.  
To prevent fall and injury, remove the TV from its fixed wall position when it is no longer in use.

Viewing 3D images  
You can enjoy viewing 3D images with contents or programmes corresponding to the 3D effect by wearing the 3D  
Eyewear. “Standard accessories” (p. 6)  
This TV supports [Frame Sequential] , [Side by Side] and [Top and Bottom] 3 3D formats.  
1
2
1: The 3D format that the images for the left and right eyes are recorded with the high definition quality and alternately  
played back.  
2, 3: Other available 3D formats  
How to view the 3D images (p. 28)  
Warning  
Do not disassemble or modify the 3D Eyewear. Doing so may result in injury, or may cause the user to feel unwell.  
Caution  
To use 3D Eyewear safely and comfortably, please read these instructions fully.  
3D Eyewear  
Do not drop, exert pressure on, or step on the 3D Eyewear. Doing so may damage the glass section, which may  
result in injury.  
Be careful of the tips of the frame and the hinge section when putting on the 3D Eyewear. Failure to heed this  
warning may result in injury. Pay special attention when children are using this product.  
Viewing 3D Content  
Do not use the 3D Eyewear if you have a history of over-sensitivity to light, heart problems, or have any other existing  
medical condition. Using the 3D Eyewear may cause the symptoms to worsen.  
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if you feel tired, discomfort, or any other abnormality. Continuing to use  
the 3D Eyewear in such cases may cause you to feel unwell. Please take the necessary rest before continuing use.  
When you set the effect by using [3D Adjustment], take into account that the vision of 3D images varies among  
different individuals.  
When using the 3D Eyewear, be careful not to strike the TV screen or other people by mistake. As the images are  
in 3D, the distance between the user and screen may be mistaken, causing the user to strike the screen which may  
result in injury.  
When using the 3D Eyewear, make sure your eyes are on an approximately horizontal level, and keep a position  
where you do not see double images.  
If you suffer from myopia (short-sightedness), hyperopia (far-sightedness), astigmatism, or have eyesight differences  
between the left and right eyes, please use corrective glasses or other such methods to correct your eyesight before  
putting on the 3D Eyewear.  
Stop using the 3D Eyewear if you can clearly see double images when viewing 3D content. Prolonged use may  
cause eyesight fatigue.  
View the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than the effective height of the screen.  
Recommended distance:  
For a 42-inch television, 1.6 m or more.  
For a 47-inch television, 1.8 m or more.  
For a 55-inch television, 2.1 m or more.  
Using the 3D Eyewear at a distance closer than the recommended distance may cause eyesight fatigue.  
3D Eyewear Use  
Do not use the 3D Eyewear for any other purpose except viewing 3D images.  
As a guide, 3D Eyewear should not be used by children younger than 5 - 6 years old. As it is difficult to judge younger  
children’s reactions to fatigue or discomfort, it may be difficult to prevent them from suddenly feeling unwell. When  
this product is being used by a child, the parent or guardian should check to ensure that the child’s eyes are not  
becoming tired.  
Do not use if the 3D Eyewear is cracked or broken. Doing so may result in injury or eyesight fatigue.  
Stop using the 3D Eyewear immediately if your skin feels unusual. In rare cases, the paint or materials used in the 3D  
Eyewear may cause an allergic reaction.  
Note  
3D Eyewear can be worn over vision correction glasses.

Storing and cleaning the 3D Eyewear  
Clean using a soft, dry cloth.  
Y
Wiping the 3D Eyewear with a soft cloth that is covered in dust or dirt may scratch the eyewear. Shake off any dust  
from the cloth before use.  
Do not use benzene, thinner, or wax on the 3D Eyewear, as doing so may cause the paint to peel off.  
Do not dunk the 3D Eyewear in liquid such as water when cleaning.  
Avoid storing the 3D Eyewear in hot or highly humid locations.

[Standby Power Save] (p. 38)  
The power consumption in Standby mode of the connected equipment is controlled higher or lower in synchronisation  
with the TV On / Off state to reduce the consumption.  
When the TV is set to Standby mode, the connected equipment is automatically set to Standby and the power  
consumption of the connected equipment is automatically minimised.  
When the TV is turned on, the connected equipment is still in Standby mode, but the power consumption is increased  
to make startup time fast.  
This function is effective if the connected equipment can change the power consumption in Standby mode and is set  
to higher consumption.  
This function works when [Power off Link] is set to [On].

standby.  
This function may not work properly depending on the connected equipment. If required, set to [Off].
