Maintenance Features

Display Panel, Cabinet, Pedestal Care: For regular care, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a soft cloth dampened with water or a diluted neutral detergent, then wipe away all moisture. Avoid using hard cloths, rubbing too hard, or using insect repellents, solvents, thinners, or volatile substances, as these can damage the surface. The display panel is specially treated and can be easily damaged, so avoid tapping or scratching it.
Mains Plug Care: Wipe the mains plug with a dry cloth at regular intervals to prevent fire or electrical shock caused by moisture and dust.
Battery Replacement: The remote control and Touch Pad Controller require batteries. When replacing, ensure correct polarity, use the same or equivalent type, and do not mix old and new or different types of batteries. Remove batteries if the unit will not be used for a prolonged period to prevent leakage.
Ventilation: Ensure sufficient space (at least 10 cm) around the TV for adequate ventilation to prevent excessive heat, which could lead to component failure. Do not cover ventilation openings with items like newspapers or curtains.
Moving the TV: When moving the TV, disconnect all cables and ensure at least two people support the TV as shown in the manual to prevent injury. Transport the TV only in an upright position.
Wall-hanging Bracket: If using a wall-hanging bracket, it is recommended to purchase one from a local Panasonic dealer and have it installed by a licensed contractor to ensure safety and maintain performance. The manual provides instructions for removing the pedestal and back bracket when preparing for wall mounting.
Terminal Cover: A terminal cover is provided to conceal cables after connections are made. Ensure the cover is removed before connecting/disconnecting cables and reattached carefully to avoid nipping cables. Note that the cover may not be attachable if certain USB or HDMI ports are in use.
