Introduction
Welcome to Toshiba
• Thank you for purchasing this Toshiba LCD Color Television. This manual will help you use the exciting features of your new TV.
• Instructions in this manual are based on using the remote control.
• You also can use the controls on the TV if they have the same name as those referred to on the remote control.
• Please read all safety and operating instructions in this manual carefully, and keep this manual for future reference.
Important Safety Instructions
Be sure to observe the following instructions and precautions to ensure safe use of this TV.
Installation
1) Always connect the power plug to an appropriate
electrical outlet equipped with A model: 220-240V, AC 50Hz, E model: 220-240V, AC 50/60Hz and T model: 110-240V, AC 50/60Hz.
Never use the TV outside the specified voltage range. It may cause a fire or an electric shock.
WARNING ABOUT THREE-WIRE GROUNDING­TYPE PLUG:
• This product shall be connected to a main socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
• Never remove the earthing pin on the power plug. This system is equipped with a three pin earthing­type power plug. This plug will only fit an earthing­type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician to replace the wall outlet.
• Never defeat the purpose of the earthing plug.
Ex. 220-240V AC, 50/60Hz
3) Never place the TV in an unstabilized location such as on a shaky table, incline or location subject to vibration.
The TV may drop or fall off which may cause an injury or damage.
4) Never block or cover the slots and openings in the cabinet.
• Never place the TV so that it is facing upward or on
its side.
• Never place the TV in a closet, bookcase or other
similar area where the ventilation is poor.
• Never drape a newspaper, tablecloth or curtain on the
TV.
• When installing the TV against a wall, always keep
the TV at least 10 cm away from the wall.
• Never place the TV on a soft unstable surface, such
as a carpet, or a cushion. The inside of this TV will overheat if the ventilation holes are covered, blocked or sealed, which may result in a fire.
5) Never place the TV near a heater or in direct sunlight.
The surface of the cabinet or power cord may melt and result in a fire or an electric shock.
Check!
About the fuse
In a three pin earthing-type, the fuse fitted in this plug is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. It should only be replaced by a correctly rated and approved type and the fuse cover must be refitted.
2) Never insert or remove the power plug with wet hands.

7) Never place the TV next to a stove where it will be exposed to oil, smoke, or steam, or in a location where there is a large quantity of dust.
This may cause a fire or an electric shock.
8) Install the TV in a horizontal, stable location. Connect between two clips on the back of the TV and a wall, pillar, etc., with a sturdy tie and clip of supplied accessories (- page 27).
• Use as short a tie as possible to ensure the TV is
stable.
• If the TV is not installed securely, it may lean or fall
over and cause an injury.

wall-hanging bracket to install this TV on the floor or wall securely in accordance with a qualified technician.
Sturdy tie (as short as possible)
10) Precautions for installing on outdoor antenna
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines, or other electric light or power circuits. If the antenna falls down or drops, it may cause an injury or an electric shock.
Use
1) Never place hot objects or open flame sources, such as lighted candles or nightlights, on or close to the TV.
High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

Cli
2) The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
When liquids are spilled or small items are dropped inside the TV, this may cause a fire or an electric shock. If small objects drop inside the TV, turn off the TV and remove the power plug from the outlet immediately and contact a service technician.
3) Never insert objects (metal or paper) or pour water inside the TV through ventilation holes and other openings.
These items may cause a fire or an electric shock. If these objects are inserted inside the TV, turn off the TV and remove the power plug from the outlet immediately and contact a service technician. Be especially careful that children do not insert objects in the TV.

Be especially careful in households with children to prevent them through climbing on top of the TV. It may move, fall over, break, become damaged or cause an injury.
5) When the TV will not be used for a long period of time, such as during vacation or travel, remove the power plug from the wall outlet for safety.
• The TV is not completely disconnected from the
power supply line, as minute current is consumed even when the ! Power switch is turned off.
• The Mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as the
disconnect device, therefore the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
6) Never pull on the power cord when removing the plug from the wall outlet.
Always hold the plug firmly when removing it. If the power cord is yanked, the cord may become damaged and a fire or an electric shock may occur.

2) When a malfunction occurs, or if smoke or an unusual odor comes from the TV, turn off the TV and remove the power plug from the outlet immediately.
Make sure that the smoke or smell has stopped, then contact a service technician. If the TV is still used in this condition, it may cause a fire or an electric shock.
7) Never cut, break, modify, twist, bunch up or bent the cord or apply excessive force or tension to it.
Never place heavy objects on the cord or allow it to overheat as this may cause damage, a fire or an electric shock. Contact a service technician if the power cord is damaged.
3) If the TV is dropped or the cabinet is broken, turn off the TV and remove the power plug from the outlet immediately.

TV for a long time, a stain may result. If the cabinet becomes dirty, clean it with a soft, dry cloth. When cleaning the surface of the LCD display, wipe the panel surface gently with a soft, dry cloth.
Important information

• Never press the LCD screen strongly or scratch it, and never put anything on it. These actions will damage the LCD screen.
2) About cabinet
Never spray volatile compounds such as insecticide on the cabinet. This may cause a discoloration or damage the cabinet.
3) Some pixels of the screen do not light up
The LCD display panel is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however sometimes some pixels of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a sign of a malfunction.
4) About Interference
The LCD display may cause interference in image, sound, etc. of other electronic equipment that receives electromagnetic waves (e.g. AM radios and video equipment).
5) About using under the low temperature places
If you use the TV in the room of 0°C or less, the picture brightness may vary until the LCD monitor warms up. This is not a sign of a malfunction.
2) Periodically disconnect the power plug from the outlet and check it. If dust has collected on the power plug connectors, clean off the dust with a dry cloth.
This dust may cause a fire due to reduced insulation on the plug.

Getting started
Connecting an antenna
Optimum reception of color requires a good signal and will generally mean that an outdoor antenna must be used.
The exact type and positioning of the antenna will depend upon your particular area.
Your Toshiba dealer or service personnel can best advise you on which antenna to use in your area.
Before connecting the antenna cable, turn off all main power switches.
