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.

Cares!

consumer electronics industry 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.

Into Safety

does NOT fit all! Use appropriate 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!

0301

30)[This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.

31)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.

32)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.

33)Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Tube: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the TV screen for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the picture tube and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:

Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.

Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right sides of screen).

Service

34)WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC

SHOCK! Never attempt to service the TV yourself. Opening and

*If you use an S-Video cable with a VIDEO-1 connection or a set of component video cables with a VIDEO-2 connection, you will need to disconnect the respective standard video cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

Selecting a location for your TV

Place the TV either on the floor or on the TV stand listed in the “Specifications” section.

Place the TV in a location where light does not directly hit the screen.

Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which can damage the TV.

Before installing your TV, please read the important safety information on pages 2–4.

6

Connecting your TV

Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.

Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses “F” connectors.

Standard stereo A/V cables usually come in sets of three, and are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio. Your TV’s standard A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.

S-Video cable is for use with video equipment that has S-Video connectors.

Component video cables come in sets of three (typically color-coded green, blue, and red), and are for use with video equipment that has component video connectors. Your TV’s ColorStream® (component video) inputs are color-coded yellow, blue, and red. Plug the green component video cable into the yellow VIDEO-2 input (see “Back of TV” on page 6).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:

For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.

For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video connectors, use an S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect a standard yellow video cable at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video connectors, use component video cables instead of a standard yellow video cable or S-video cable. You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection.

Coaxial (antenna) cable

Standard stereo A/V cables

(typically color-coded yellow for video, red and white for audio)

S-video cable

Component video cables

(typically color-coded red, green, blue)

CAUTION: Do not plug in any power cords until you have finished connecting all equipment.

Connecting a VCR

With this connection you can:

watch local TV channels and videotapes

record one channel while watching the same or another channel

You will need:

two coaxial cables

one set of standard A/V cables (If your VCR has S-video, you can use an S-video cable instead of the standard video cable. See “Note Regarding Picture Quality” above.)

Note:

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

The VIDEO-2 inputs on the back of the TV can be used for connecting a second piece of video equipment such as a DVD player. The VIDEO-3 inputs* on the front of the TV can be used for connecting a third piece of video equipment such as a

camcorder. See “Note Regarding Picture Quality” above.

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

Your TV remote control can operate your TV and most cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even if they are different brands.

If you have a Toshiba device:

Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices. See page 14.

If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate:

You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the other device. See pages 12–14.

Installing the remote control batteries

1 Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote control.

Squeeze tab and lift cover.

2 Install two “AA” size batteries, making sure to match the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Caution:

Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a fire.

Do not mix battery types or combine used batteries with new ones.

Remove dead batteries immediately to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

If you do not intend to use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries.

Note:

If your Toshiba TV remote control does not operate all the features of your other device, use the original remote control for that device.

3 Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the tab snaps.
