WARNING

Do not disassemble or modify the

pedestal.

• Otherwise the TV may fall over

and become damaged, and

personal injury may result.

CAUTION

Do not use the pedestal for any

other TV or displays.

• Otherwise the TV or the display

may fall over and become

damaged, and personal injury

may result.

Do not use the pedestal if it

becomes warped or physically

damaged.

• 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 insu cient care is 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.

Ensure that the TV does not fall

over.

• 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.

Two or more people are required

to install and remove the TV.

• If two or more people are not

present, the TV may be dropped,

and personal injury may result.

 is TV could fall over if it is pushed, pulled or knocked down.

We therefore recommend the TV to be secured to the  oor, wall

or furniture as illustrated.  is measure is designed to reduce the

risk of injury from a falling TV. However, it cannot guarantee

protection in all cases.

Securing the TV

Fasten the supplied band to

the base using a screw .

Insert the base into the TV,

and then fasten securely with the

assembly screws .

• Make sure that the

screws are securely

tightened.

Fix the pedestal to the  oor, wall or

furniture with the band.

hanging bracket and so need to  x the holes again.

WARNING

•  is TV is designed to be wall hung without removing the base .

• In case of wall-hanging without base , the 4 assembly screws must

be fastened into the screw holes

• Using other wall-hanging brackets, or installing a wall-hanging bracket

by yourself have the risk of personal injury and product damage. In

order to maintain the unit’s performance and safety, be absolutely sure

to ask your dealer or a licenced contractor to secure the wall-hanging

brackets. Any damage caused by installing without a quali ed installer

will void your warranty.

• Do not mount the unit directly below ceiling lights (such as spotlights,

 oodlights or halogen lights) which typically give o high heat. Doing so

may warp or damage plastic cabinet parts.

• Take care when  xing wall brackets to 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  xed wall position
