Dear Customer,
Thank you for purchasing this Toshiba LCD TV or TV/DVD
Combination television.
This manual will help you use the many exciting features of
your new LCD TV. Before operating your LCD TV or TV/DVD
Combination, please read this manual completely, and keep it
nearby for future reference.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to
the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle,
is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the
appliance.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do not use the polarized plug with an extension
cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades
can be inserted completely to prevent blade
exposure.
NOTE TO CATV INSTALLERS
This is a reminder to call the CATV system installer’s attention
to Article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides guidelines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to grounding system of the building, as close to the point of
cable entry as practical. For additional antenna grounding information,

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your 
new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
• The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend 
and larger flat panel displays are popular purchases. However, 
flat panel displays are not always supported on the proper stands 
or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Flat panel displays that are 
inappropriately situated on dressers, 
bookcases, shelves, desks, 
speakers, chests or carts may fall 
over and cause injury.
TOSHIBA Cares!
• The consumer electronics industry 
is committed to making home 
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
Tune Into Safety
• One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations 
for the safe installation and use of your flat panel display.
• Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for 
proper use of this product.
• Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and 
television sets.
• Don’t place flat panel displays on furniture 
that can easily be used as steps, such 
as a chest of drawers.
• Remember that children can 
become excited while watching a 
program, especially on a “larger 
than life” flat panel display. Care 
should be taken to place or install 
the display where it cannot be 
pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
• Care should be taken to route all cords and 
cables connected to the flat panel display so that they cannot be 
pulled or grabbed by curious children.
Wall Mounting: If you decide to wall mount your 
flat panel display, always:
• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display 
manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such 
as UL, CSA, ETL).
• Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount 
manufacturers.
• If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your 
flat panel display, contact your retailer about professional 
installation.
• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is 
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted 
to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you 
are unsure, contact a professional 
installer.
• A minimum of two people are 
required for installation. Flat panel 
displays can be heavy. 
CHILD SAFETY:
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat 
Panel Display
WARNING: Handling the cord on this product or cords associated 
with accessories sold with this product will expose you to lead, a 
chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or 
other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
