Safety precautions
WARNING
Fitting work and connection equipment expansion and removal should never be done by any other than a
qualified installation specialist.
• Incorrect fitting may cause equipment to fall, resulting in injury.
Do not fit at a location that cannot bear the load.
• If the fitting location lacks sufficient strength the equipment may fall.
Include a safety factor when considering the strength of the proposed fitting location.
• If strength is not sufficient the equipment may fall, resulting in injury.
Do not disassemble or modify the wall-hanging bracket.
• Otherwise the unit may be dropped and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
Ensure that the installation location is strong enough to support long-term use.
• If its strength becomes insufficient over the course of long-term use, the plasma display may drop, possibly
causing injury.
CAUTION
Do not use any plasma displays other than those given in the catalogue.
• Otherwise the unit may be dropped and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
Do not install the plasma display in any other way than the steps specified in these instructions.
• Otherwise the unit may be dropped and become damaged, and personal injury may result.
Do not fit facing upwards, sideways or upside down.
• This may cause heat to build up inside the plasma display, resulting in a fire.
Do not fit at any locations subject to humidity, dust, smoke, steam or heat.
• This may have an adverse effect on the plasma display and cause fire or electric shock.
Do not block the ventilation holes. When using the wall-hanging bracket, do not block the space between
the rear surface of the plasma display and the wall surface.
• Otherwise heat may build up inside and cause a fire.
Secure at least 10 cm (3.9 inches) of space at the top, bottom, left, and right of the plasma display. Also
secure some space at the back.
• Failing to do so may result in a fire.
The work of fitting or removing the plasma display must be performed by at least two people.
• The plasma display may fall and cause injury.
For installation, use the special-purpose constituent parts.
• Otherwise, the plasma display may fall off the wall and/or be damaged, possibly causing injury.
Install the mounting screws and power cable in such a way that they will not make contact with the inside
parts of the wall.
• Electric shocks may result from contact with any metal objects inside the wall.
When removing the plasma display, remove the wall-hanging brackets as well.
• Otherwise, bumping into the brackets, etc., may result in injury.
Requests regarding handling
1) Exercise care when selecting the location for the plasma display because it may discolor or deform due to
light or heat if it is placed where it is exposed to direct sunlight, or near a heater.
2) Clean the wall-hanging bracket by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth (such as cotton or flannel). If the bracket is
very dirty, remove the dirt using a neutral detergent diluted in water, and then wipe it clean with a dry cloth.
Do not use benzene, thinner, or furniture wax as this may cause the coating to peel.
(For information on cleaning the plasma display, see the plasma display's instruction manual. If using a
chemically-treated cloth, follow the instructions supplied with the cloth.)
3) Do not affix adhesive tape or stickers to the product. Doing so may dirty the surface of the wall-hanging
bracket. Do not allow long-term contact with rubber, vinyl products or the like. (Doing so will cause
deterioration.)
4) The panel of the plasma display is glass. Do not subject it to a strong force or impact.
Caution:
This bracket is intended for only Panasonic plasma display models (See page 71).
Use with other apparatus is capable of resulting in instability causing possible injury.
PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION IS REQUIRED.
PANASONIC DISCLAIMS ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH
RESULTING FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR INCORRECT HANDLING.
