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

aIf you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your
home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
aThe home theater entertainment experien ce is a growing
trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however,
they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.
a
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!

aThe consumer electronics
industry iscommitted to
making home entertainment
enjoyable and safe.

The Consumer Electronics
Association formed the
Home Entertainment
Support Safety Committee,

families about television safety.

Tune Into Safety

furniture large enough to support the weight of your TV
(and other electronic components).

secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw
anything directly into the TV).
