Ensure that the mains plug is easily accessible. ●

Ensure the earth pin on the mains plug is securely connected to prevent electrical shock. ●

An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective ●

earthing connection.

Do not touch the mains plug with a wet hand. (This may cause electrical shock.) ●

Do not damage the mains lead. (A damaged lead may cause fire or electrical shock.) ●

Do not move the unit with the lead plugged in the socket outlet. ●

Do not place a heavy object on the lead or place the lead near a high-temperature object. ●

Do not twist the lead, bend it excessively, or stretch it. ●

Do not pull on the lead. Hold onto the mains plug body when disconnecting lead. ●

Notes

Do not display a still picture ■

for a long time

This causes the image to remain on the

plasma screen (“image retention”).

This is not considered a malfunction and is

not covered by the warranty.

Typical still images

Computer image●

To prevent image retention, contrast is

lowered automatically after a few minutes

if no signals are sent or no operations are

performed. (p. 89)

Auto power standby function ■

If no signal is received and no operation ●

is performed in Analogue TV mode for

30 minutes, the unit will automatically go

to standby mode.

The unit will automatically go to Standby ●

mode if there are no signal and no

operation between the Display Unit and

the Tuner Box for a while.

Tuner Box - after 1 minute

Display Unit - after 10 minutes

Keep the unit away from these ■

types of equipment

Electronic equipment ●

In particular, do not place video equipment

near the unit (electromagnetic interference

may distort images / sound).

Equipment with an infrared sensor ●

This unit also emits infrared rays (this may

affect operation of other equipment).

Adjust the panel to your desired ■

angle (TX-P46Z1E)

Ensure that the pedestal does not hang ●

over the edge of the base even if the TV

swivels to the full rotation range.

Do not place any objects or hands within ●

the full rotation range.

When cleaning the unit, remove the mains plug

■

Cleaning an energized unit may cause electrical shock. ●

When the unit is not going to be used for a ■

long period of time, remove the mains plug

The unit will still consume some power even in the Off mode, ●

as long as the mains plug is still connected to a live socket

outlet.

Transport only in upright position ■

Transporting the Display Unit with its display panel facing ●

upright or downward may cause damage to the internal

circuitry.

Allow sufficient space around the Display ■

Unit for radiated heat

Minimum distance

3

(cm)

When using the pedestal, keep the space between the ●

bottom of the Display Unit and the surface where the Display

Unit is set.

In case of using Wall-hanging bracket, follow the manual of ●

it.

Do not block the rear air vents ■

Blocked ventilation by newspapers, table cloths, curtains, ●

etc. may cause overheating, fire or electrical shock.

Do not expose your ears to excessive ■

volume from the headphones

Irreversible damage can be caused. ●

The Display Unit is heavy. Handle the ■

Display Unit by 2 or more people. Support

as shown to avoid injury by the Display Unit

Conditions■

If you are going to place the Tuner Box close to or under the Display Unit, it is recommended to connect them ●

using the supplied HDMI cable.

If your installation layout is not suitable for using the Wireless Unit (Example 2), connect them using the

supplied HDMI cable.

Example 1 (below)

You can place the Tuner Box and the Display Unit in a flexible way using the Wireless Unit (not using any ●

cables between the Display Unit and the Tuner Box). To use wireless connection between the Display Unit and

the Tuner Box, ensure that the Wireless Transmitter and the Wireless Receiver are positioned to face each

other without any obstructions.

Example 2■

The Wireless Unit uses 60 (59.40 - 61.56) GHz frequency band. Do not use the Wireless Unit near the ●

equipment using the same frequency band to avoid the interference.

It may take a while to change the input mode when using the Wireless Unit. To resolve this, use the supplied ●

HDMI cable to connect the Display Unit and the Tuner Box. Example 1 (above)

Picture and sound may be interrupted or lost completely depending on the positioning of the Wireless ●

Transmitter or obstacles (furniture, AV equipment, rack, rack door, etc.) between the Wireless Transmitter

and the Wireless Receiver. To resolve this, change the installation layout to avoid any obstacles between the

Transmission Range

Use the RF remote control within the range of 7 m from the Tuner Box.

The range may be shortened depending on the obstacles, the surrounding environment or building structure.

Caution

Keep the remote control away from the devices such as wireless LAN, microwaves, mobile phones or other ●

electric equipment to avoid radio wave interference. Otherwise malfunction or slow response may occur.

This remote control is RF (Radio Frequency) remote control.

Signals are sent in virtually every direction, so that you can operate the TV even if the remote control is not

facing the Display Unit or the Tuner Box. In addition, as the radio waves reflect on walls or other obstacles, the

remote control is operable even there are obstacles between the remote control and the Tuner Box.

This remote control uses 2.4 GHz frequency band.
