Follow these steps to set up your TV and begin using its many exciting features.

1 Carefully read the important safety, installation, care, and service information. Keep this manual for future reference.

2 Observe the following when choosing a location for the TV:

•Read “Important notes about your LCD TV”

( page 6).

•Place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable

surface that can support the weight of the unit. Secure the TV to a wall, pillar, or other immovable structure ( page 3).

•Place the TV in a location where light does not reflect on the screen.

•Place the TV far enough from walls and other objects to allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which will damage the TV. THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA WARRANTY.
