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

home with your family and friends. Thank you!

a position where your body (or any item you are in contact with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally touch overhead power lines. Never locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.

• Never attempt to install any of the following during lightning activity: a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home theater component connected to an antenna or phone system.

Care

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:

27) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove the source of reflections while viewing the TV.

28) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

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 ingrained 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, closed captions, 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 removing the covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

35) If you have the TV serviced:

• Ask the service technician to use only replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer.

• Upon completion of service, ask

the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the TV is in safe operating condition.

29) WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV cabinet slots.

J3S40121A(E)_P02-06 24/01/2005, 3:55 PM4

• 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, 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 14).

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

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

your TV

Connecting

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. With the switch in the “A” position, tune your TV 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, there may be features that you cannot program using the remote control, such as labeling channels, blocking channels, and programming your favorite channels.

Connecting

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 40.)

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 40.)

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.)

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–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 40.)

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most cable TV converters/satellite receivers, VCR and DVD player models together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of cable TV converters/satellite receivers, VCRs and/or DVD players, you first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use with a cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player” on page 17.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.

2. Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Using the

Remote Control

3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.

Note:

The TV remote control may not operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter. Refer to the owner's manual supplied with the applicable equipment to see which features may be available. Additionally, the remote control for this TV may not support certain features available on the original remote controls for such additional equipment, in which case, it is suggested that you use the original remote control for the applicable device.

Caution:

• Never throw batteries into a fire.

Notes:

• Be sure to use “AAA” size batteries.

• Dispose of batteries in a designated

disposal area.

• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.

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

• If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace both batteries with new ones.

• If the batteries are dead or if you will not be using the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Using the remote control to operate your other devices

Programming the remote control to operate your other devices

This remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba satellite receivers, VCRs and DVD players. To control cable TV converters/ satellite receivers, VCRs and DVD players other than Toshiba models, you must follow the steps below to program your remote control.

1. Refer to the code tables (on pages 18 and 19) to find the corresponding code for your brand. If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find the one that works.

2. If you are programming the remote control to operate your:

• Cable TV converter/satellite receiver: Press “CBL/SAT.”

• VCR: Press “VCR.”

• DVD player: Press “DVD.”

3. While holding down RECALL, press the Channel Number buttons to enter the three-digit code for your cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player brand.

4. Point the remote control at the cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player, and press POWER to test the code.

• If the cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player

responds, you entered the correct code.

• If the cable TV converter/satellite receiver, VCR or DVD player

does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using another code.

5. Press “TV” to control the TV.

For future reference, write down the codes you used:

Cable TV converter/satellite receiver code _____________________

TV VCR

DVD CBL/SAT

Notes:

• When shipped from the factory, the remote control is set to operate your TV.

• If you do not enter the code within 10 seconds from step 1 or if you enter a code not listed below, this operation is canceled.

• Each time you replace the batteries, you must reprogram the remote control.

• Some newer VCRs are capable of working on either of two remote codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does not respond to any of the codes for your VCR, set the switch to the other position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram the remote control.
