Important Safety Precautions for Split Cabinet Feature

(Model 57HX84 only)

Toshiba TV model 57HX84 has a split cabinet feature that allows disassembly of the cabinet into two sections during installation.

For details, please refer to the insert titled “Disassembly/ Reassembly Instructions for Split Cabinet Feature” that accompanied this owner’s manual in the accessory pack. If you do not have the insert, you can download a copy of it from our Web site (www.toshiba.com/tacp in the U.S.A. or www.toshiba.ca in Canada). If you do not have access to the Internet, call 1-800-631-3811 in the U.S.A. or 1-800- 268-3404 in Canada.

WARNING: If you split the cabinet for any purpose, NEVER energize the bottom section until it is completely and properly installed. Energizing the disassembled bottom section and

subjecting it to intentional misuse (for example, exposing it to a foreign object) creates the potential for an electrical shock hazard that could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION: If you use the split cabinet feature, ALWAYS handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet, which contains a glass mirror, with great care. If subjected to excessive mechanical abuse (for example, if bumped or dropped), the mirror may break, creating exposed glass fragments with sharp edges. Contact with these glass fragments may result in injury.

Installation, Care, and Service

CAUTION: The split cabinet feature (model 57HX84 only) allows disassembly of the cabinet into two sections during installation. If you use the split cabinet feature, follow these precautions while the two sections of the TV cabinet are disassembled:

1)Always handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet (with the viewing screen), which contains a glass mirror, with great care. If subjected to excessive mechanical abuse (for example, if bumped or dropped), the mirror may break, creating exposed glass fragments with sharp edges. Contact with these glass fragments may result in injury.

2)Never temporarily locate the disassembled bottom section in an area where it may be exposed to foreign objects or abuse (for example, areas where children may be playing, where items may fall on top of the unit, or where liquids may spill into the unit). Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the optic components of the TV.

SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

3)Always keep the top and bottom sections of the TV cabinet in an upright position while disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the TV, including but not limited to the optic components, cabinet, bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

4)Never energize the bottom section of the TV cabinet while disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction could result in death or serious injury.

5)Never place anything on top of the disassembled bottom section of the TV cabinet. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the optic components. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

6)Never store or transport the unit while it is disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the TV, including but not limited to the optic components, cabinet, bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.
