As you enjoy your new product, please keep these safety tips in mind: The Issue • The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger flat panel displays are popular purchases. However, flat panel displays are not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the manufacturer's recommendations. • Flat panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, speakers, chests or carts may fall over and cause injury. TOSHIBA Cares! • The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe. Tune Into Safety • One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for the safe installation and use of your flat panel display. • Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use of this product. • Don't allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television sets. • Don't place flat panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as steps, such as a chest of drawers. • Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, especially on a "larger than life" flat panel display. Care should be taken to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over, or knocked down. • Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the flat panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabbed by curious children. Wall Mounting: If you decide to wall mount your flat panel display, always: • Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL). • Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount manufacturers. • If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your flat panel display, contact your retailer about professional installation. • Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you are unsure, contact a professional installer. • A minimum of two people are required for installation. Flat panel displays can be heavy. 2 J51T0101D.indb 2 6/22/09 4:28:42 PM
