We have a 56LCX16 Panasonic TV. There is no PIP or Split on the remote. Are there any other instructions?
Apologies for the delay in responding. Did a bit of searching and the way to reset for this model is by plugging in the TV, and powering on using the TV power button or remote. Then press and hold down the VOL- button on the TV, and hold the 0 button on the remote control for 5 seconds at least. You will get a confirmation screen when the reset is complete. Applies to following models.
Models No. PT-52LCX66 / PT-56LCX66 / PT-61LCX66
Models No. PT-52LCX16 / PT-56LCX16 / PT-61LCX16
