Welcome
Dear Panasonic Customer,
We hope that you have many years of enjoyment from your new TV. The Quick Start Guide section at the be gin ning of
this instruction book will allow you to use the TV as quickly as possible. We recommend that you then read the complete
instruction book, and keep it to refer to as you explore the range of advanced features that this LCD TV offers.
Analogue and Digital television - what are they?
Analogue transmission is the system that has been used for many years for broadcasting television programmes. With continuous
improvements in technology it is now possible to transmit programmes in a digital format, allowing clearer pictures, more stations
and other services to be displayed on screen. Digital television is provided in three different ways; it can be sent along a cable
connection direct to your house, broadcast from a satellite, or broadcast using traditional land based (terrestrial) transmitters.
The fi rst two options require you to have an extra "set top box" decoder and in the case of satellite, a receiving dish mounted
outdoors. While allowing you to receive traditional analogue transmissions in the usual way, this television can also receive
terrestrial digital services using an integrated
of digital terrestrial television, including interactive services, without the need for a "set top box" or satellite dish - an adequate
roof or loft mounted antenna is all you need.
