Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
32) 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.
33) Always unplug the TV before
cleaning. Gently wipe the display
panel surface (the TV screen)
using a dry, soft cloth only
(cotton, flannel, etc.). A hard
cloth may damage the surface of
the panel. Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene,
acidic or alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or
chemical cloths, which may damage the surface. Never
spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on the
cabinet. Such products may damage or discolor the
cabinet.

cabinet slots.
35) While it is thundering, do not touch the connecting cables

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.
