Care

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

27)If you use the TV in a room whose temperature is 32 ¼F (0 ¼C) or below, the picture brightness may vary until the LCD warms up. This is not a sign of malfunction.

28) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Wipe the display panel surface gently using only a 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.

29)WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK !

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV cabinet slots.

35)The LCD panel on this TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, an occasional pixel (dot of light) may display constantly on the screen.

This is a structural property of LCD technology and is not a sign of malfunction.

Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance.

Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a ÒgunÓ type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work on this TV.
