24) When selecting a location for the TV,

• NEVER allow any part of the TV to hang over

the edge of the supporting furniture,

• NEVER place the TV on tall furniture (for

example, entertainment centers or bookcases)

ithout anchoring both the furniture and the TV

to a suitable support,

• Never place cloth or other material between the

TV and the supporting furniture,

• NEVER allow children to climb on the TV.

25) To avoid damage to this product, never place or

store the TV in direct sunlight; hot, humid

areas; or areas subject to excessive dust or

vibration.

26) Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy,

level, stable surface that can support the weight

of the unit. Secure the TV using one of the

following methods:

(1) Secure the TV with a mounting screw

(Recommended.)

• Place the TV on a sturdy surface that has a

sufficient thickness and screw the unit on the

surface securely by using the mounting screw

and the fall-prevention screw hole.

(2) Secure the TV with a sturdy strap to a wall

stud, pillar, or other immovable structure.

When connecting the strap:

- attach the strap to the TV using the hooks on

the back of the TV, the clips on the pedestal, or

the hole in the base of the pedestal as available.

- make sure the strap is tight, secure, and

parallel to the floor.

27) The product shall not be exposed to dripping

or splashing, and that no objects filled with

liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on

the apparatus.

28) Never block or cover the slots or openings in

the TV cabinet back, bottom, and sides.

Never place the TV:

• on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface;

•

too close to drapes, curtains, or walls; or

• in a confined space such as a bookcase,

built-in cabinet, or any other place with

poor ventilation.

29) Always leave a space of at least 4 (four)

inches around the TV. The slots and

openings are provided to protect the TV

from overheating and to help maintain

reliable operation of the TV.

30) Never allow anything to rest on or roll over

the power cord, and never place the TV

where the power cord is subject to wear or

abuse.

31) Never overload wall outlets and extension

cords.

32) Always operate this equipment from a 120V

AC, 60Hz power source.

33) Always make sure the antenna system is

properly grounded to provide adequate

protection against voltage surges and

built-up static charges (see Section 810 of

the National Electric Code).

34)

• Use extreme care to make sure you are

never in a position where your body (or any

item you are in contact with, such as a

ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally

touch overhead power lines.

Never locate the antenna near overhead

power lines or other electrical circuits.

• Never attempt to install any of the following

during lightning activity: a) an antenna

system; or b) cables, wires, or any home

theater component connected to an antenna

or phone system.

Care

For better performance and safer operation of

your TOSHIBA TV, follow these

recommendations and precautions:

35) If you use the TV in a room where the

temperature is 32° F (0° C) or below, the

picture brightness may vary until the LED

warms up. This is not a sign of

malfunction.

36)

• Never use chemicals (such as air

fresheners, cleaning agents, etc.) on or

near the TV pedestal. Studies indicate that

plastics may weaken and crack over time

from the combined effects of chemical

agents and mechanical stress (such as

the weight of the TV). Failure to follow

these instructions could result in serious

injury and/or permanent damage to TV

and TV pedestal.

• Always unplug the TV before cleaning.

Gently wipe the display panel surface (the

TV screen) using a dry, soft cloth (cotton,

flannel, etc.). A hard cloth may damage

the surface of the panel.

Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner,

benzene, acidic or alkaline solvent

cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or chemical

cloths, which may damage the surface.

Never spray volatile compounds such as

insecticide on the cabinet. Such products

may damage or discolor the cabinet.

37) Never hit, press, or place anything on the

back cover. These actions will damage

internal parts.

38)

Never spill liquids or push objects of any

kind into the TV cabinet slots.

39) During a lightning storm, do not touch

the connecting cables or product.

40) For added protection of your TV from

lightning and power surges, always unplug

the power cord and disconnect the antenna

from the TV if you leave the TV unattended

or unused for long periods of time.

41) Always unplug the TV to completely

disconnect from mains power. When the

TV is turned off using the on/off switch, it

is not completely disconnected from

power and a minute amount of current is

still consumed.

42) During normal use, the TV may make

occasional snapping or popping sounds.

This is normal, especially when the unit is

being turned on or off. If these sounds

become frequent or continuous, unplug

the power cord and contact a Toshiba

Authorized Service Provider.

43)

Never strike the screen with a sharp or

heavy object.

44) • The LCD screen of this product can be

damaged by ultraviolet radiation from the

sun. When selecting a location for the

television, avoid locations where the

screen may be exposed to direct sunlight,

such as in front of a window.

• Never touch, press, or place anything on

the LCD screen. These actions will damage

the LCD screen. If you need to clean the

screen, follow the instructions in item 36)

.

Service

45)

Never attempt to service the TV yourself.

Opening and removing the covers may

expose you to dangerous voltage or other

hazards. Failure to follow this WARNING may

result in death or serious injury. Refer all

servicing not specified in this manual to a

Toshiba Authorized Service Provider.

46) If you have the TV serviced:

• Ask the service technician to use only

replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer.

• Upon completion of service, ask the

service technician to perform routine

safety checks to determine that the TV is

in safe operating condition.

Congratulations on your purchase! 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.

CHILD SAFETY:

It Makes A Difference How and Where

You Use Your Flat Panel Display

• 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.
