Precautions
Important notes about your LCD TV
The following symptoms are technical limitations of
LCD Display technology and are not an indication of
malfunction. Therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for
perceived defects resulting from these symptoms.
1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a
fixed, nonmoving image is displayed for a long period of
time. The afterimage is not permanent and will
disappear in a short period of time.
2)
The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using
an extremely high level of precision technology; however,
there may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does
not operate properly (does not light, remains constantly
lit, etc.). This is a structural property of LCD technology,
is not a sign of malfunction, and is not covered under your
warranty. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is
viewed from a normal viewing distance.
Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a
“gun” type of joystick at an on-screen target may not
work on this TV.
Notes on handling
Do not subject the LCD panel to physical shock, such as
dropping it. It may cause unit damage and malfunction.
Retain the original shipping carton and packing
materials. For maximum protection when shipping,
repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide, near the
unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact
with the unit for prolonged periods of time. Doing so will
leave marks on the finish.
The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm
after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.
When the unit is not in use, always remove the disc and
turn off the power.
If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may
not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the
unit occasionally.
Notes on locating the unit
When you place this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the
playback picture may become poor and the sound may
be distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the
TV, radio, or VCR.
To avoid damage to this product, never place or store
the TV/DVD in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas
subject to excessive dust or vibration.
Always place the TV/DVD on the floor or a sturdy, level
stable surface that can support the weight of the unit.
Use a sturdy tie between the TV/DVD's rear hooks and the
rear wall, pillar, etc., or screw the TV to the stand using the
TV’s rear screw hole or a safety band (see illustration).
Note on cleaning
Clean only with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Notes on moisture condensation
Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please read
the following carefully.
Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you
pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day and drops of
water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way,
moisture may condense on this unit’s internal optical pick-
up lens, one of the most crucial internal parts of the unit.
Moisture condensation may occur in the following
situations:
When you move the unit from a cold area to a warm
area.
When you use the unit in a room in which the heat was
just turned on.
When you use the unit in an area where cold air from an
air conditioner directly hits the unit.
When you use the unit in a humid area.
Never use the unit when moisture condensation may
occur.
Using the unit when moisture condensation exists may
damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc,
connect the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn
on the unit, and leave it for two or three hours. After two
or three hours, the unit will have warmed up and
evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the
wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.
