Child Safety

It Makes A Difference Where

Your TV Stands

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

o If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.

o The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.

o Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over, causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!

o The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and

safe.

o The Consumer Electronics Association formed the Home Entertainment Support Safety Committee, comprised of TV and consumer electronics furniture manufacturers, to advocate children's safety and educate consumers and their families about television safety.

Tune Into Safety

o One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large enough to

support the weight of your TV (and other electronic components).

o Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).

o Carefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

o Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.

o Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

o Remember that children can become excited while watching a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

o Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home with your family and friends. Thank you!

The Toshiba 20DL76 is a compact television model that exemplifies the blend of classic design and functional technology. Although it is an older model, it remains a noteworthy entry-level option for those seeking basic television capabilities without the frills of modern smart features. This television is particularly appealing for individuals looking for a simple, no-nonsense viewing experience.

In terms of display, the Toshiba 20DL76 comes with a 20-inch CRT screen, offering a resolution that enhances the viewing experience while providing decent picture quality for standard definition broadcasts. The CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) technology, while dated compared to the current LCD and LED displays, is known for its rich color reproduction and true blacks, making it suitable for casual viewing.

The design of the 20DL76 is characterized by a classic style, with a relatively lightweight and compact footprint.

When it comes to connectivity, the Toshiba 20DL76 includes multiple input options. It is equipped with composite video inputs, allowing connection to various devices like DVD players, gaming consoles, and VCRs. This versatility makes the 20DL76 a suitable option for those who have a collection of older technology and want to integrate them into their viewing setup.

Another notable characteristic of this television is its audio performance. The built-in speakers offer adequately clear sound for standard television programming. While advanced sound technologies such as surround sound or Dolby Digital are absent, the sound quality is satisfactory for everyday viewing needs.

Although the Toshiba 20DL76 lacks the advanced features of current smart televisions, such as internet connectivity or streaming capabilities, it remains a reliable choice for viewers who prioritize functionality over high-tech integrations. Its robust construction and simplicity resonate with those who appreciate classic television design, making it a lasting piece of technology in an increasingly digital world.
