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.

WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS

PERSONAL INJURY, OR

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE!

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 onl

y

replacement parts specified by the

manufacturer.
