25) Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable
surface that can support the weight of the unit. In order to
maintain stability and prevent the TV falling over, secure
the TV with a sturdy strap from the hooks on the rear of
the TV pedestal to a wall stud, pillar, or other immovable
structure. Make sure the strap is tight, secure, and
parallel to the floor.

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:
34) If you use the TV in a room whose temperature is 32 °F
(0 °C) or below, the picture brightness may vary until the
LCD warms up. This is not a sign of malfunction.
35) Always unplug the TV before
cleaning. When cleaning your
TV, please first remove any dirt or
dust from the surface. Gently
wipe the cabinet and the display
panel surface (the TV screen)
with a dry, soft cloth only (cotton, flannel, etc.). The
enclosed cleaning cloth is for cabinet cleaning. Harsh
rubbing or use of a dirty or stiff cloth will scratch the TV
surface. Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene,
acidic or alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or
chemical cloths, which may damage the TV surface.
Never spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on
the TV surface. Such products may damage or discolor
the TV.
36)
WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV
cabinet slots.
37) While it is thundering, do not touch the connecting cables
or apparatus.
38) 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.
39) ALWAYS unplug the TV to completely disconnect from
mains power. When the TV is turned off using the on/off
switch, it is not completely disconnected from power and
a minute amount of current is still consumed.
40) 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.
