24) Always operate this equipment from

a 120V AC, 60 Hz power source only.

25) Always make sure the antenna system is properly

grounded to provide adequate protection against

voltage surges and built-up static charges (see Section

810 of the National Electric Code).

DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL

INJURY OR DEATH!

• Use extreme care to make sure you are never

in a position where your body (or any item you are in

contact with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can

accidentally touch overhead power lines. Never locate

the antenna near overhead power lines or other

electrical circuits.

• Never attempt to install any of the following during

lightning activity:

a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home

theater component connected to an antenna or phone

system.

Care

For better performance and safer operation of your

TOSHIBA TV, follow these recommendations and

precautions:

27) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV

and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can

appear dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV,

or if sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn

the TV off to check for reflections on the screen, and

then remove the source of reflections while viewing the

TV.

28) Always unplug the TV before

cleaning. Never use liquid or

aerosol cleaners.

29)

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind

into the TV cabinet slots.

30) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air

temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV

is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses.

This can make the picture appear distorted or the color

appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7

hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.

31) For added protection of your TV from lightning and

power surges, always unplug the power cord and

disconnect the antenna from the TV if you leave the TV

unattended or unused for long periods of time.

32) During normal use, the TV may make

occasional snapping or popping

sounds. This is normal, especially

when the unit is being turned on or

off. If these sounds become frequent

or continuous, unplug the power cord

and contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

33) Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Tube: If a

fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the TV screen

for long periods of time, the image can become

permanently ingrained in the picture tube and cause

subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of

damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it

is displaying the following formats or images:

• Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock

tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, closed

captions, and websites.

• Special Formats that do not use the entire screen.

For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a

normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of

screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a

widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right

sides of screen).

Service

34)

WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC

SHOCK! Never attempt to service the

TV yourself. Opening and

removing the covers may expose

you to dangerous voltage or other

hazards. Refer all servicing to a

Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

35) If you have the TV serviced:

• Ask the service technician to use only replacement

parts specified by the manufacturer.

• Upon completion of service, ask

the service technician to perform

routine safety checks to determine

that the TV is in safe operating

condition.

36) When the TV reaches the end of its useful life, ask a

qualified service technician to properly dispose of the

TV. Improper disposal may result in a picture tube

implosion and possible personal injury.
