WARNING ABOUT THREE-WIRE GROUNDINGTYPE PLUG:

• This product shall be connected to a main socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

• Never remove the earthing pin on the power plug. This system is equipped with a three pin earthingtype power plug. This plug will only fit an earthingtype power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace the wall outlet.

• Never defeat the purpose of the earthing plug.

Ex. 220-240V AC, 50/60Hz

3) Never place the TV in an unstabilized location such as on a shaky table, incline or location subject to vibration.

The TV may drop or fall off which may cause an injury or damage.

4) Never block or cover the slots and openings in the cabinet.

• Never place the TV so that it is facing upward or on

its side.

• Never place the TV in a closet, bookcase or other

similar area where the ventilation is poor.

• Never drape a newspaper, tablecloth or curtain on the

TV.

• When installing the TV against a wall, always keep

the TV at least 10 cm away from the wall.

• Never place the TV on a soft unstable surface, such

as a carpet, or a cushion. The inside of this TV will overheat if the ventilation holes are covered, blocked or sealed, which may result in a fire.

5) Never place the TV near a heater or in direct sunlight.

The surface of the cabinet or power cord may melt and result in a fire or an electric shock.

Check!

About the fuse

In a three pin earthing-type, the fuse fitted in this plug is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. It should only be replaced by a correctly rated and approved type and the fuse cover must be refitted.

2) Never insert or remove the power plug with wet hands.

This may cause an electric shock.

6) Never place the TV in an area exposed to high humidity levels, such as in a bathroom or close to a humidifier.

This may cause a fire or an electric shock.

Introduction

7) Never place the TV next to a stove where it will be exposed to oil, smoke, or steam, or in a location where there is a large quantity of dust.

This may cause a fire or an electric shock.

8) Install the TV in a horizontal, stable location. Connect between two clips on the back of the TV and a wall, pillar, etc., with a sturdy tie and clip of supplied accessories (- page 30).

• Use as short a tie as possible to ensure the TV is

stable.

• If the TV is not installed securely, it may lean or fall

5) When the TV will not be used for a long period of time, such as during vacation or travel, remove the power plug from the wall outlet for safety.

• The TV is not completely disconnected from the

power supply line, as minute current is consumed even when the ! Power switch is turned off.

• The Mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the

disconnect device, therefore the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

6) Never pull on the power cord when removing the plug from the wall outlet.

Always hold the plug firmly when removing it. If the power cord is yanked, the cord may become damaged and a fire or an electric shock may occur.

• Never press the LCD screen strongly or scratch it, and never put anything on it. These actions will damage the LCD screen.

2) About cabinet

2) Periodically disconnect the power plug from the outlet and check it. If dust has collected on the power plug connectors, clean off the dust with a dry cloth.

This dust may cause a fire due to reduced insulation on the plug.

Clean here

Getting started

Connecting an antenna

Optimum reception of color requires a good signal and will generally mean that an outdoor antenna must be used.

Your Toshiba dealer or service personnel can best advise you on which antenna to use in your area.

Before connecting the antenna cable, turn off all main power switches.
