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.

Panel Display
