Important notes about your LCD TV

Introduction

The following symptoms are technical limitations of LCD Display technology and are not an indication of malfunction; therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for perceived defects resulting from these symptoms.

1)An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a fixed, non-moving image is displayed for a long period of time. The afterimage is not permanent and will disappear in a short period of time.

2)The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, there may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.). This is a structural property of LCD technology, is not a sign of malfunction, and is not covered under your warranty. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance.

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

Precautions

Notes on handling

Do not subject the LCD panel to physical shock, such as dropping it. It may cause unit damage and malfunction.

Retain the original shipping carton and packing materials. For maximum protection when shipping, repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide, near the unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for prolonged periods of time. Doing so will leave marks on the finish.

The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

When the unit is not in use, turn off the power.

If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit occasionally.

Notes on locating the unit

When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

To avoid damage to this product, never place or store the TV in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas subject to excessive dust or vibration.

Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level stable surface that can support the weight of the unit. Use a sturdy tie between the TV's rear hooks and the rear wall, pillar, etc., or screw the TV to the stand using the TV’s rear screw hole or a safety band (see illustration).

Notes on cleaning

Clean only with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.

Notes on LCD

The color LCD is manufactured using extremely high precision technology, but even so may include certain pixels that do not operate properly (that do not light, that remain lit constantly, etc.). We do our best to keep the number of these defective pixels to a minimum, but please understand that they cannot be completely eliminated even with the most advanced manufacturing technologies available today.

The fluorescent tube which illuminates the panel from the inside will deteriorate with use. When the LCD becomes dim, flickers, or does not illuminate, contact your dealer for replacement.

The brightness of the LCD monitor differs slightly depending on the viewing angles. Adjust the angle to obtain the best viewing. (The recommended angle is 90 degrees to the monitor.)
