Child Safety
It Makes A Difference 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!
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!
Where
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.

Connecting an HDMI™ or a DVI device to the HDMI input

The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device or uncompressed digital video from a DVI device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP (High­Bandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program
material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B compliant consumer electronic devices (such as a set- top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i video signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.
Note: The HDMI jack is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a personal computer. For PC connection, see page 17.
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
• one HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device
For proper operation, it is recommended that you use as short an HDMI cable as possible. You should not encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable shorter than 16.4 ft (5m).
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below).
EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, the technology of which is being standardized for reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.
To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset properly, it is recommended that you follow these procedures:
• When turning on your electronic components,
turn on the TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.
• When turning off your electronic components,
turn off the HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV.
To connect a DVI device, you will need:
• one HDMI
toDVI adapter cable
(HDMI type A connector)
For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).
• one pair of standard analog audio cables
An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers only video. Separate analog audio cables are required (see illustration below).

Installing or replacing the remote control battery

To install the battery:
1. Before proceeding, make sure your hands are dry.
2. Turn the remote control over to view its back.
3. As illustrated, place a coin or a coin-like object in the slot of the battery cover and turn the coin following the direction indicated on the battery cover to open it.
Note: If the battery cover proves difficult to remove after turning the coin, pat the remove control repeatedly until the battery cover falls on your hand.
4. Remove any existing battery (if necessary) and install a new battery (CR2032). Note that the positive (+) polarity should face outward.
Caution:
Never throw batteries into a fire.
Note:
Be sure to use a CR2032 battery.
Dispose of an old battery in a designated disposal area.
The battery should always be disposed of with the environment in mind. Always dispose of the battery in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace the battery with a new one.
Always remove the battery from remote control if it is dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.
