Child Safety
It Makes A Difference
Where Your TV Stands
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your
new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home.
Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing
trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are
not always supported on the proper TV stands.
Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio
speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,
causing unnecessary injury.
TOSHIBA Cares!
The consumer electronics industry
is committed to making home entertainment
enjoyable and safe.
The Consumer Electronics Association
formed the Home Entertainment Support Safety
Committee, comprised of TV and consumer
electronics furniture manufacturers, to advocate
children’s safety and educate consumers and their
families about television safety.
Tune Into Safety
One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large
enough to support the weight of your TV (and other electronic
components).
Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure
your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly
into the TV).
Carefully read and understand the other enclosed
instructions for proper use of this product.
Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture
and TVs.
Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR,
remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.
Remember that children can become excited while watching
a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the
home with your family and friends. Thank you!
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THIS TV
TO A PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC).
THIS TV IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH A PC.
Note: The lamp unit contains mercury. Disposal of mercury
may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For
