even death if not installed correctly. To prevent personal
injury or death, follow these warnings:
●
Install the Plasma TV in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommended pedestal or stand,
corresponding hardware and installation instructions.
This Plasma TV is for use only with the following
optional accessories. Use with any other type of optional
accessories may cause instability. The following accessories
are manufactured by Panasonic Corporation.
• Wall-hanging bracket (Angled)
TY-WK4P1RW(TC-P42ST30, TC-P46ST30, TC-P50ST30)
TY-WK5P1RW(TC-P55ST30)
●
Be sure to ask a qualified technician to carry out the
installation and set-up.
Two or more people are required to install or remove the
television.
●
Some wall mounts (wall-hanging brackets) are not
designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old
cinder block constructions.
Ask your dealer or licensed contractor to properly secure
the wall-hanging bracket.
●
Do not route the TV’s power cord inside the wall.
The power cord was not designed for in-wall mounting.
Doing so can lead to fire hazard.
●
Do not place the Plasma TV or its stand on a sloped or
unstable surface.
The Plasma TV may fall or tip over.
●
Do not support the Plasma TV on a non-specified
pedestal.
●
Do not place the Plasma TV on furniture that can easily
be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers.
●
Do not climb or allow children to climb on the Plasma TV
●
Place or install the Plasma TV where it cannot be
pushed, pulled over or knocked down.
●
Route all cords and cables such that they cannot be

If water spills onto the Plasma TV or foreign objects get
inside it, a short-circuit may occur which could result in
fire or electric shock. If any foreign objects get inside the
Plasma TV, please consult an Authorized Service Center.
In the unlikely event that you receive a shock from this
product it is possible that your household outlet may be
wired improperly. Have an electrician verify that the TV’s
outlet is properly wired. If the symptom persists, have the
TV serviced by a qualified authorized technician.
●
To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles
or other open flames away from this

■AC Power Supply Cord
To prevent fire or electric shock:
●
The Plasma TV is designed to operate on a 120 V AC,
60 Hz service. Insert the power cord plug as far as it will
go into the wall socket.
If the plug is not fully inserted, heat may generate, which
could cause a fire.
●
The included power cord is for use with this unit only.
●
Do not use any power cord other than that provided
with this TV.
●
Do not handle the power cord plug with wet hands.
●
Do not do anything that might damage the power
supply cord.
●
When disconnecting the power supply cord, hold the
plug, not the cord.
●
Do not use the power supply cord if the plug or cord is
damaged.
Replace the cord or contact your Authorized Service Center.
●
Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong AC plug adapters to
connect your TV’s plug to the wall outlet.
Doing so will defeat the TV plug’s safety feature, which
can lead to a shock hazard. If the wall outlet does not
accommodate a 3-prong plug, have a qualified electrician
replace your outlet and check the associated wiring.
■Handling the power supply cord
●
In
se
rt the power plug fully into the socket outlet. (If the
power plug is loose, it could generate heat and cause fire.)
●
Ensure that the power plug is easily accessible.
●
Ensure the earth pin on the power plug is securely
connected to prevent electrical shock.
• An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be
connected to a power socket outlet with a protective
earthing connection.
●
Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand. (This may
cause electrical shock.)
●
Do not use any power cord other than that provided
with this TV. (This may cause fire or electrical shock.)
●
Do not damage the power cord. (A damaged cord may
cause fire or electrical shock.)
• Do not move the TV with the cord plugged in the socket outlet.
• Do not place a heavy object on the cord or place the cord
near a high-temperature object.
• Do not twist the cord, bend it excessively, or stretch it.
• Do not pull on the cord. Hold onto the power plug body
when disconnecting cord.
• Do not use a damaged power plug or socket outlet.
●
If a problem occurs (such as no picture or no sound),
or if smoke or an abnormal odor is detected from the
Plasma TV, unplug the power supply cord immediately.
Continued use of the TV under these conditions might
cause a fire or permanent damage to the TV. Have the TV
evaluated by an Authorized Service Center. Servicing of the
TV by unauthorized personnel is strongly discouraged due
to its high voltage.
●
If water or an object gets inside the Plasma TV, if the
Plasma TV is dropped, or if the enclosure becomes
damaged, unplug the power supply cord immediately.
A short-circuit may occur, which could cause a fire. Contact
an Authorized Service Center for an evaluation.
CAUTION
●
Do not cover the ventilation holes.
Doing so may cause the Plasma TV to overheat, which can
cause a fire or damage to the Plasma TV.
●
Leave a space of 3 15/16” (10 cm) or more at the top,
left and right, and 2 3/4” (7 cm) or more at the rear.
●
When using the pedestal, keep the space between the
bottom of the TV and the pedestal or stand surface
clear from objects that may obstruct ventilation.
■When Moving the Plasma TV
●
Be sure to disconnect all cables before moving the
Plasma TV.
Moving the TV with its cables attached might damage the
cables which, in turn, can cause fire or electric shock.
●
To prevent an electric shock, disconnect the power
plug from the wall outlet as a safety precaution before
carrying out any cleaning.
●
Transport only in upright position.
Transporting the unit with its display panel facing upright or
downward may cause damage to the internal circuitry.
●
Using a dry cloth, clean any dust from the power supply
cord and plug regularly.
Build-up of dust on the power cord plug can increase
humidity, which might damage the insulation and cause a
fire.
This Plasma TV radiates infrared rays;
therefore, it may affect other infrared communication
equipment. Install your infrared sensor in a place away from
direct or reflected light from your Plasma TV.
The TV will still consume some power as long as the
power supply cord is connected to the wall outlet.
●
Display panel is made of glass. Do not apply strong
force or impact to the display panel.
This may cause damage resulting in injury.
●
The TV is heavy. TV should be handled by 2 or more
people. Support as shown to avoid injury by the TV
tipping or falling.

FCC STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for an Other Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the Panasonic Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution:
To assure continued compliance, follow the attached installation instructions and use only shielded interface cables
when connecting to peripheral devices. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Panasonic Corp. of
North America could void the user’s authority to operate this device.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator & your body.

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and RSS-Gen of IC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz frequency range.
FCC and IC require this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful
interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz
and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this product.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices.
There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe.
Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used.
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce
heating effects causes no known adverse health effects.
Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological
effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research.
Product Identification Marking is located on the bottom of the Wireless LAN Adapter.

If you use the pedestal when 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 sufficient care is not 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.
When removing the pedestal, do not remove the pedestal by any methods other than the specified procedure. (p. 9)
Otherwise the TV and/or pedestal may fall over and become damaged, and personal injury may result.

■About wireless LAN
●
To use the Wireless LAN Adapter, an access point needs to be obtained.
For the additional information for Wireless LAN Adapters, check the following website:
http://Panasonic.com/NetConnect
●
It is recommended to use the Wireless LAN Adapter with the supplied extension cable.
●
Do not use the Wireless LAN Adapter to connect to any wireless network (SSID*) 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.
* SSID is a name for identifying a particular wireless network for transmission.
●
Do not subject the Wireless LAN Adapter to high temperatures, direct sunlight or moisture.
●
Do not bend, or subject the Wireless LAN Adapter to strong impacts.
●
Do not disassemble or alter the Wireless LAN Adapter in any way.
●
Do not attempt to install the Wireless LAN Adapter in any incompatible device.
●
When VIERA Connect, Network camera, DLNA, or other device is using the network, do not disconnect the Wireless
LAN Adapter.
●
Check that the Access point supports WPS*.
(If it does not support WPS, the encryption key of the Access point is required when configuring settings.)
●
Follow the instructions on the Access point setup screen and configure 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 (5 GHz) for the wireless system between the Wireless LAN Adapter and Access point.
Communication is also possible with 11a, 11b, and 11g (2.4 GHz), 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 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals. Otherwise, the TV failures such as
malfunction may occur due to the radio wave interference.
●
When noises occur due to the static 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.

Precautions for Viewing 3D Images
Infra-red receiver section
Do not soil the infra-red receiver section or attach stickers etc. to it.
• Doing so may prevent the receiver from receiving signals from the television, which may prevent the 3D Eyewear
from operating normally.
If the 3D Eyewear is affected by other infra-red data communication equipment, the 3D images may not be displayed
correctly.
Cautions During Viewing
Do not expose the infra-red receiver section to strong light such as direct sunlight and fluorescent light. The 3D image
may not be displayed correctly.
If the 3D Eyewear is used in a room in which fluorescent lights (50 Hz) are used, the light within the room may appear
to be flickering. In this case, either darken or switch off the fluorescent lights when using the 3D Eyewear.
Wear the 3D Eyewear correctly. 3D images will not be correctly visible if the 3D Eyewear is worn upside down or back-
to-front.
Individual differences may occur in which the 3D images are difficult to see, or cannot be seen, especially in users that
have a different level of eyesight between the left and right eyes. Take the necessary steps (wearing glasses etc.) to
correct your eyesight before use.
For comfortable viewing
View the screen at a distance at least 3 times further than the effective height of the screen.
Recommended distance:
For a 42-inch television, 5’3” (1.6 m) or more.
For a 46-inch television, 5’6” (1.7 m) or more.
For a 50-inch television, 6’2” (1.9 m) or more.
For a 55-inch television, 6’8” (2.1 m) or more.
Using the 3D Eyewear at a distance closer than the recommended distance may cause eyesight fatigue.
When the top and bottom area of the screen is blackened, such as during some movies, view the screen at a distance
3 times further than the height of the actual image. (That makes the distance closer than above recommended
distance.)
Viewing 3D images
Using the television menu controls, set so that 3D images are shown.
●
You can watch 3D images in the following cases:
• When a 3D image supporting Blu-ray Disc is played on a 3D image supporting player/recorder connected using a
HDMI cable to a 3D image supporting television.

Care and Cleaning
First, unplug the Power cord plug from the wall outlet.
Display panel
The 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, 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 fingernails 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.
Cabinet
If the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
●
If the cabinet is particularly dirty, soak the cloth in a weak 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 Plasma TV.
If water droplets get inside the unit, operating problems may result.
●
Avoid contact with volatile substances such as insect sprays, solvents, and thinner; otherwise, the quality of the cabinet surface
may be adversely affected or the coating may peel off.
●
Do not let articles made from rubber or PVC be in contact with the TV for long periods of time.
Pedestal
●
Cleaning
Wipe the surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. If the unit is particularly dirty, clean it using a cloth soaked with water to which a small
amount of mild liquid dish soap has been added and then wipe with a dry cloth.
Do not use products such as solvents, thinner, or household wax for cleaning, as they can damage the surface coating. (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.)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Care and Cleaning
How do I view the picture from
devices such as a: Cable/Satellite
box, game console, Blu-ray or
DVD player?
Press the INPUT button on the remote to select the correct
input source.
Check that the device is turned on and functioning correctly.
Why is there no picture or just a
blue, black or snowy screen being
displayed?
Check if the power cord is plugged in and the TV is turned on
(front red LED light should be on; not blinking)
Press the INPUT button on the remote to select the correct
input source.
Ensure all connections are correct and secure.
When using external video source, such as a Cable/Satellite
box or DVD player, check that the device is on and functioning
correctly.
Press MENU on the TV’s remote control. If the menu is
displayed, then the TV is working; recheck above steps.
Why doesn’t the picture look like
it is in High Definition?
Press the INFO button on the remote to confirm the type of signal
being received (p. 19). HD signal should be 720P, 1080i or 1080p.
Select a High Definition channel from your HD source (Cable,
Satellite or fiber optic service). HD channels sometimes
broadcast non-HD content.
Ensure that your HD source (HD box, Blu-ray player, etc.) is
connected to the TV with an HDMI or Component cable and
set to output an HD video signal.
Why do black bars appear on the
top and bottom and/or sides of
the screen?
Change the format (aspect ratio) of the picture by pressing the
FORMAT button on the remote control. (p. 20)
Check the aspect settings on your external video source, such
as Cable/Satellite box, DVD/Blu-ray Disc player, etc.
Note: Some content, such as film-based movies, are
available in extra-wide format. Top and bottom bars are
unavoidable.
Why is the picture snowy when
“ANT/Cable in” is selected?
When using a cable service (without a box), check that all
connections are secure.
When using a cable or satellite box, change the connection
(wiring) to Composite, Component or HDMI. (p. 12)
If you’re using an antenna, then check that connections are
secure. Change the position or direction of the antenna and
check the “Signal meter”. (p. 47)
Why is the picture chaotic and/
or torn and/or with a buzz in the
speakers?
Check if electrical products such as kitchen appliances,
fluorescent lights or light dimmers are nearby. They may
interfere with the TV’s picture.
Try viewing a picture from another device, such as a DVD player
or a game console, to narrow down the source of the problem.
Why is there a black box on the
screen?
Change settings of Closed Caption (CC). (p. 19, 52)
Why is the screen blank and the
power indicator blinking?
The TV has gone into shutdown mode to protect itself. Try
unplugging it for a few minutes and connecting it again. If
there was a temporary power surge on the AC line it may now
be OK. If the blinking returns, call 1-877-95VIERA (U.S.A.) or
1-866-330-0014 (Canada).
Why do some small spots on the
screen remain bright or dark?
The Plasma panel is made up of a few million pixels and
is produced with advanced technology through an intricate
process. Sometimes a few pixels may be bright or dark. These
pixels do not indicate a defective panel and will have no impact
on the performance of the TV.

Questions Answers
Sound Other
Why is there no sound coming
from the TV?
Make sure the volume is up and MUTE is off.
Confirm the TV speakers are set to ON by pressing MENU and
selecting “Audio” --> “Advanced audio”. (p. 51)
Check that the correct SAP (Secondary Audio Program) is
selected by pressing the SAP button on the remote control.
(p. 19)
If the TV is connected to a Panasonic Home Theater via HDMI
cable, then check VIERA Link controls. (p. 37)
If the TV is connected to a Home Theater via optical cable,
then: Check the connection, the audio system is on, the
correct input is selected.
Check “HDMI 1 in”, “HDMI 2 in” or “HDMI 3 in” analog/digital
audio settings. (p. 51)
Why is the sound unusual,
distorted, low volume or in
another language?
Check that the correct SAP (Secondary Audio Program) is
selected by pressing the SAP button on the remote control.
Check that all connections of external equipment connected to
the TV are secure.
When using Cable or Satellite box, check the device’s audio
settings. (example: try changing the box’s Audio Range to
‘narrow’)
Why is there a clicking, ticking or
buzzing sound coming from the
TV unit?
When TV power is turned on or shut off there are electrical
components that make a click sound. This is normal operation.
Changes in the temperature and humidity of the room may
cause thermal expansion and contraction that can produce
sounds. This is not a sign of faulty operation or a malfunction.
What is the easiest and best way
to connect a High-Definition Cable
or Satellite box to the TV?
Use an HDMI cable. It carries both digital video and audio
signal in HD. HDMI cable is the only cable needed to connect
an HD device to the TV.
Why does the CC button not
display Closed Caption?
When viewing TV via an HDMI connected device, such as a
Cable or Satellite box, CC must be enabled at the device.
Closed Caption is available only at supported TV
programming.
Why does the screen and back
cover of the TV get warm?
The main unit radiates heat and some of the parts may
become hot. This is normal operation and does not affect the
performance of the set.
Ensure good ventilation.
Do not block the ventilation holes of the TV and do not place
the TV on top of other equipment.
Why doesn’t the Remote Control
work?
Check that the batteries are fresh, are of the same type and
are installed with the correct polarity (+ & -).
To operate other devices, such as changing channels when
using Cable or Satellite boxes or operating non-Panasonic Blu-
ray players, use the remote supplied with the device.
Why is the “ANT/Cable” option at
the top of the “Input select” menu
gray-out and cannot be selected?
During “First time setup”, you indicated in step - that you
are using Cable or Satellite box and in step
- b that the
box is connected to one of the TV’s AV inputs. In this case, the
Antenna/Cable input is deactivated to prevent unintentional
switching into unused tuner. To re-activate, press MENU,
select SETUP and repeat “First time setup”.
Some menu items are grayed-out
and cannot be selected. Why?
Depending on certain modes or the selected input, some
options are not available. For example, Zoom adjustments are
only available when the FORMAT is changed to zoom mode.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Questions Answers
Networking 3D
How do I get VIERA Connect to
work on my TV?
1. You need a broadband (high speed) Internet service with a
speed of no less than 1.5 Mbps (p. 39).
2.
Connect the TV to the Internet through your router by an
Ethernet cable or a Panasonic Wireless LAN Adapter (included).
3. Run the “Connections Test”, under the Network Settings menu.
If Connection test fails, then check with your Internet service
provider or router/modem manufacturer if there are firewall,
content filter or proxy settings that may block the TV from
accessing the Internet.
How do I check for the latest
software (firmware) version for
my TV?
In the main menu, select “Setup”. Highlight “Network Settings”
and press OK. Select “Software Update”. The current version
and latest version software will be shown. If software update
is “grayed out”, the TV is not connected to the Internet. If
newer version is available, update your TV. Follow the on-
screen instructions, do not power off the TV until the update is
complete. Be patient; firmware update may take a while.
Can I use any USB WiFi adapter to
connect the TV to my wireless network?
The TV’s internal software was designed to work with
Panasonic’s Wireless LAN Adapter (included).
How do I reset my TV to all factory
defaults and settings?
In the main menu, select “Setup”. Highlight “Reset to Defaults”
and press OK. Enter your password (if created earlier) or
create a temporary new password. Select Yes to reset the TV.
Can I download new apps
(content & services) into my
VIERA Connect TV?
Yes. Select the “VIERA Connect Market” item in the middle
bottom of the VIERA Connect home screen. “VIERA Connect
Market” allows you to find and install the applications to
“VIERA Connect” home screen. (p. 43)
Why doesn’t my 3D video source
looks 3D?
1. Begin playing the 3D video source.
2. Ensure that the Panasonic 3D Eyewear (glasses) are on
(check the glasses battery)
3. Press “3D” button directly or press the VIERA TOOLS button
on the TV’s remote control and select “3D”
4. In the “3D format select” menu, select “3D”.
Notes:
1.
3D Blu-ray discs must be played with a 3D capable Blu-ray player.
2. Check with your Cable or Satellite provider if their supplied box
is 3D capable.
3. 3D signal must be connected to the TV via an HDMI cable.
When selecting some 3D video
content, why are there two
pictures next to each other?
There are a few different 3D formats and the current setting may
not match the incoming 3D signal. The format should change
automatically, but depending on the source/connection it may not
signal the TV properly. To manually select other 3D formats:
1. Press “3D” button directly or press VIERA TOOLS button on
the TV’s remote control and select “3D”
2. In the “3D format select” menu, choose another 3D format
such as “side by side” or “top and bottom”.
3. Remember to switch the 3D format setting back to “AUTO”
when you go back to viewing a standard 2D signal.
Why does the power on the 3D
Eyewear (glasses) turn off by itself?
The 3D Eyewear receives special synchronizing infrared signals
from the TV. If no signal is received within 5 minutes, the 3D
Eyewear automatically turns itself off to save power. Ensure that no
objects are blocking the path between the 3D Eyewear and the TV.
Why does the left and right sides
of the image seem reversed?
The 3D format has two different “phases”. Try the other phase:
1.
In the main menu, select “Setup”. Highlight “3D setting” and press OK.
2. In the “3D Settings” menu, select “Left/Right Swap”
Can I use 3D glasses similar to the
kind given at a 3D movie theater to
watch 3D content on my 3D TV?
No. Movie theater’s 3D glasses are passive. They use a simple filter
‘lens’. Panasonic 3D Eyewear are actively synchronizing the left/right eye
viewing with the display, providing a superior 3D viewing experience.

in the United States or Puerto Rico. This Limited Warranty is extended only to the original purchaser of a new product
which was not sold “as is”. A purchase receipt or other proof of the original purchase date is required for Limited Warranty
service.
On-Site or Carry-in Service
For On-Site or Carry-In Service in the United States and Puerto Rico call 1-877-95-VIERA (1-877-958-4372).
On-site service where applicable requires clear, complete and easy access to the product by the authorized servicer
and does not include removal or re-installation of an installed product. It is possible that certain on-site repairs will not
be completed on-site, but will require that the product or parts of the product, at the servicer’s discretion be removed for
shop diagnosis and/or repair and then returned.
Limited Warranty Limits And Exclusions
This Limited Warranty ONLY COVERS failures due to defects in materials or workmanship, and DOES NOT COVER
normal wear and tear or cosmetic damage, nor does it cover markings or retained images on the glass panel resulting
from viewing fixed images (including, among other things, non-expanded standard 4:3 pictures on wide screen TV’s,
or onscreen data in a stationary and fixed location). The Limited Warranty ALSO DOES NOT COVER damages which
occurred in shipment, or failures which are caused by products not supplied by the warrantor, or failures which result
from accidents, misuse, abuse, neglect, bug infestation, mishandling, misapplication, alteration, faulty installation,
set-up adjustments, misadjustment of consumer controls, improper maintenance, power line surge, lightning damage,
modification, or commercial use (such as in a hotel, office, restaurant, or other business), rental use of the product,
service by anyone other than a Factory Service Center or other Authorized Servicer, or damage that is attributable to acts
of God.
THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES EXCEPT AS LISTED UNDER “LIMITED WARRANTY COVERAGE”.
THE WARRANTOR IS NOT LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE
USE OF THIS PRODUCT, OR ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. (As examples, this
excludes damages for lost time, cost of having someone remove or re-install an installed unit if applicable, or travel to
and from the servicer. The items listed are not exclusive, but are for illustration only.) ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE LIMITED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, ARE LIMITED TO THE PERIOD OF
THE LIMITED WARRANTY.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitations on how long an
implied Limited Warranty lasts, so the exclusions may not apply to you.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have others rights which vary from state to state. If
a problem with this product develops during or after the Limited Warranty period, you may contact your dealer or Service
Center. If the problem is not handled to your satisfaction, then write to the warrantor’s Consumer Affairs Department at
