      5This equipment is a Class II or double insulated electrical appliance. It has been designed in such a way that it does not require a safety connection to electrical earth.This product contains electrical or electronic materials. The presence of these materials may,if  not disposed          of properly, have potential adverse effects on the environment and human health. Presence of this label on the product means it should not be disposed of as unsorted waste and must be collectedseparately. As a consumer, you are responsible for ensuring that this product is disposed of properly.20.  Operate only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your television dealer or local power company.21.  Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the LCD TV.22.  Never push objects of any kind into this LCD TV through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a re or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the LCD TV.23.  If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. In the U.S. Section 810-21 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.24.  An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines, other electric light, power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.25.

      7CEA CHILD SAFETY NOTICESWARNINGFlat panel displays are not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests, or carts may fall over and may cause personal injury or even death. The consumer electronics industry (of which Panasonic is a member) is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe. To prevent personal injury or death, be sure to follow the following safety guidelines: TUNE INTO SAFETY: •  One size does NOT t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the safe installation and use of your at panel display. •  Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product. •  Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets. •  Don’t place at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. •  Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on “larger than life”  at panel displays. Care should be taken to install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down. •  Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the at panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children. WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS: •  Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent  laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL). •  Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers. •  If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your at panel display, contact your retailer about professional installation. •  Make sure the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer. •  A minimum of two people are required for installation.  Flat panel displays can be heavy. Panasonic recommends that a qualied installer perform the wall-mount installation. See page 8.The American Academy of Pediatrics discourages media viewing for children younger than two years. For more details, see www.aap.org.*¹*²About  built-in wireless LAN To use the built-in wireless LAN, using an access point is recommended. To use the built-in wireless LAN in the access point mode, up to 7 devices are connectable. But the transfer rate will vary according to communication environment or connected equipments. Do not use the built-in wireless LAN to connect to any wireless network (SSID*¹) for which you do not have usage rights. Such networks may be listed as a result of searches. However, using them may be regarded as illegal access. Check that the Access point supports WPS*². (If it does not support WPS, the encryption key of the Access point is required when conguring settings.) Follow the instructions on the Access point setup screen and congure the appropriate security settings.For more details on setting of Access point, please refer to operating manual for the Access point. We recommend using 11n (2.4 GHz) for the wireless system between the built-in wireless LAN and Access point.Communication is also possible with 11a, 11b, and 11g, but the communication speed may be slower. If the wireless system of the Access point is changed, devices that could connect by wireless LAN may no longer be able to connect. Data transmitted and received over radio waves may be intercepted and monitored. Keep the TV away from the following devices as much as possible:Wireless LAN, microwaves, and other devices that use 2.400 GHz and 2.4835 GHz signals. Otherwise, the TV failures such as malfunction may occur due to the radio wave interference. When noises occur due to the   electricity, etc., the TV might stop operating for the protection of the devices. In this case, turn the TV Off with power On / Off switch, then turn it On again.SSID is a name for identifying a particular wireless network for transmission.WPS: Wi-Fi Protected Setup

      29Care and CleaningFirst, unplug the power cord plug from the wall outlet.Display panelThe 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 after cleaning up the dust, soak a soft, lint-free cloth in diluted, mild liquid dish soap (1 part mild liquid dish soap 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 ngernails 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.CabinetIf the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in diluted, mild liquid dish soap 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 mild liquid dish soap to come into direct contact with the surface of the TV. If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.

Note: 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.)Power cord plugWipe the plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals.
