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).
Introduction

Notes on cleaning

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

Notes on LCD

■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.)

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.
Important notes about your LCD TV
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.
