Care

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:

The picture can appear dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove the source of reflections while viewing the TV.

30)Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a dry cloth.

Do not spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on the cabinet. This may cause a discoloration or damage of the cabinet.

31)WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Never spill liquids or push objects of any

kind into the TV cabinet slots.

32)If the air temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.
