Warnings and Safety Precaution

The TOSHIBA plasma display is designed and manufactured to provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to clean the panel surface.

The plasma display panel consists of fine picture elements (cells). Although TOSHIBA produces the plasma display panels with more than 99.99 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or remain lit.

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the following instructions. To avoid shock and fire hazards:

1.Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install the unit in a closed cabinet or shelves.

The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install the unit in an enclosure, make sure there is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and escape. If the display becomes too hot, the overheat protector will be activated and the display will be turned off. If this happens, turn off the power to the display and unplug the power cord. If the room where the display is installed is particularly hot, move the display to a cooler location, and wait for the display to cool for 60 minutes. If the problem persists, contact your TOSHIBA dealer for service.

2.Do not use the power cord polarized plug with extension cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.

3.Do not expose the unit to water or moisture.

4.Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to modify the power cord.

5.Unplug the unit during electrical storms or if the unit will not be used over a long period.

6.Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.

7.Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. TOSHIBA is not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unqualified persons attempt service or open the back cover. Refer all service to authorized TOSHIBA Service Centers.

8.Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart / apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
