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

your family and friends. Thank you!

Precautions

Important notes about your LCD TV

The following symptoms are technical limitations of

Introduction

LCD Display technology and are not an indication of malfunction. Therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for perceived defects resulting from these symptoms.

1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a fixed, nonmoving image is displayed for a long period of time. The afterimage is not permanent and will disappear in a short period of time.

The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, there may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.). This is a structural property of LCD technology, is not a sign of malfunction, and is not covered under your warranty. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance. Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a “gun” type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work on this TV.

Notes on handling

■ Do not subject the LCD panel to physical shock, such as

dropping it. It may cause unit damage and malfunction.

■ When shipping the unit, the original shipping carton and

packing materials come in handy. For fully protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.

■ Do not use volatile liquids, such as insecticide, near the

unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the unit for prolonged periods of time. Doing so will leave marks on the finish.

■ The top and rear panels of the unit may become warm

after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

■ When the unit is not in use, always remove the disc and

turn off the power.

■ If you do not use the unit for a long period, the unit may

not function properly in the future. Turn on and use the unit occasionally.

Notes on locating the unit

playback picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted. In this case, place the unit away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

■ To avoid damage to this product, never place or store

the TV/DVD in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas subject to excessive dust or vibration.

Notes on moisture condensation

Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please read the following carefully.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day and drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on this unit’s internal optical pickup lens, one of the most crucial internal parts of the unit.

■ Moisture condensation may occur in the following situations:

• When you move the unit from a cold area to a warm area.

• When you use the unit in a room in which the heat was just turned on.

• When you use the unit in an area where cold air from an air conditioner directly hits the unit.

• When you use the unit in a humid area.

■ Never use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.

Using the unit when moisture condensation exists may damage discs and internal parts. Remove the disc, connect the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the unit will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

Selecting a location for the TV/DVD

• Place the TV/DVD on the floor or on a sturdy platform in a location

where light does not directly hit the screen.

• Place the TV/DVD far enough from the walls to allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which may damage the TV/DVD. This type of damage is NOT

COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

Connecting your TV/DVD

• A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your

antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

• Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded according to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear panel of the TV/DVD, you will see that the terminals are color coded in the same manner as the cables.

• S-video cables provide better picture performance than standard video cables. S-video cables can only be used with S-video compatible components.

• Component video cables provide better picture performance than S-video cables. Component video cables can only be used with component video compatible components.

• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use with video equipment that has HDMI output (see page 17).

NOTE: DO NOT CONN ECT A PC USING THE HDMI INPUT.

Connecting a cable converter box or Antenna

This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable company.

Option 1: For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.

Option 2: For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

Connecting

If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/

your TV/DVD

Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/ Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

Option 3: For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels

If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/ Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV/DVD. With the switch in the "A" position, tune your TV/DVD to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.

Note:

When you use a converter box with your TV/ DVD, there may be features that you cannot program using the remote control, such as labeling channels, blocking channels, and programming your favorite channels.

EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with highbandwidth digital content protection, 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.

Introduction

your TV/DVD

Connecting

NOTE: DO NOT CONN ECT A PC US ING THE HDMI INPUT.

ALWAYS use the VGA port provided to connect a PC.

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:

• one HDMI cable (type A connector)

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 that is shorter than 16.4 ft (5m).

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below).

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 42).

Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 42). Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio cables and play media with digital audio output, to hear digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI” (page 42).

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/DVD 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/DVD.

To connect a DVI device, you will need:

• one HDMI–to–DVI 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).

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 42).
