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.

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA TV, 
follow these recommendations and precautions:

29)  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.

30)  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.

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV 
cabinet slots.

32)  While it is thundering, do not touch the connecting cables or 

apparatus.

33)  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.

34)  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.

35) 

Never strike the screen with a sharp or 
heavy object.

36)  •   The LCD screen of this product can be damaged by 

ultraviolet radiation from the sun. When selecting a location 
for the television, avoid locations where the screen may be 
exposed to direct sunlight, such as in front of a window.

Never touch, press, or place anything on the LCD screen. 
These actions will damage the LCD screen. If you need to 
clean the LCD screen, follow the instructions in item 30 on 
this page.

37) 

Never attempt to service the TV yourself. Opening and removing 
the covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other 
hazards. Failure to follow this WARNING may result in death or 
serious injury. Refer all servicing not specified in this manual to 
a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

38)  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.

39)  The cold cathode fluorescent lamp in the LCD panel contains a 

small amount of mercury. 

When the TV reaches the end of its useful life, dispose of 
the used TV by the approved method for your area, or ask a 
qualified service technician to properly dispose of the TV.
