electrical outlet (120 volt AC,

60 Hz). If the plug does not fit into the outlet, try turning it around. If the plug still does

replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not tamper with the plug or try to force it into a non-standard outlet.

Precautions

Installing your TV

•Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The mounting surface should be flat and steady. If you install the TV on a soft floor, make sure that the floor is not damaged by the weight of the TV.

•This TV set may be used only with the Toshiba stands shown on page 48. Use with other stands may result in instability, causing possible injury.

•Place the TV far enough away from the walls to allow proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV. Avoid dusty areas too.

Using your TV

•Do not stand or climb on the TV.

•Do not put any heavy object on top of the TV.

•Do not place containers with liquids such as drinks or cosmetics on the TV. If any foreign material or water leaks into the TV, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.

•Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended periods of time. Stationary patterns generated by a Multi-Window display, computer displays, video games, stock market reports, etc., can become permanently engrained on the picture tube. This damage is not protected by your warranty because it is the result of misuse. If you wish to use your TV to display still images, reduce brightness and contrast settings. Never leave a Multi-Window, computer, or video game display unattended.

Cleaning your TV

•To clean the TV screen:

1.First remove the plug from the power outlet to avoid possible shock hazard.

2.Use a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened with a solution of mild detergent and warm water to clean the TV screen and trim. Do not use too much water on the TV screen. Water spills into the cabinet and may cause damage to the TV. Avoid excess water.

3.Remove any extra moisture with the same cloth or a dry one.

CAUTION

Never use strong solvents such as thinner, benzene or other chemicals on or near cabinet, as they might damage the finish of the cabinet.
