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 the

home with your family and friends. Thank you!

Care

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

27) If you use the TV in the room of 0°C or less, the picture

brightness may vary until the LCD TV warms up. This is not a sign of a malfunction.

28) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Wipe the display panel surface gently using only a soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.). A hard cloth may damage the surface of the panel. Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene, acidic or and alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive cleaners, or chemical cloths, as the surface may be impaired.

29) WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

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

30)While it is thundering, do not touch the connecting cables or apparatus.

31) If you have the LCD screen facing to the sun, the LCD screen will be damaged. Be aware of locating the TV in the place such as window side or outside of the room.

32) LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) may cause interference in image, sound, etc. of other electronic equipment that is easy to receive electromagnetic waves (i.e. AM radios and video equipment) under certain installed condition. In particular, it may affect electronic equipment beyond the residential unit where a LCD TV is used.

33) 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.

34) 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.

35) The screen on this TV is

manufactured from glass.

To prevent damage, never strike the glass with a sharp or heavy object.

36)The LCD panel on this TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, an occasional pixel (dot of light) may display constantly on the screen. This is a structural property of LCD technology and is not a sign of malfunction. 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 on-screen target may not work on this TV.

Service

37) 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.

38) 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.

Connecting

Connecting your TV

Note: One TheaterLink cable is provided with your TV. No other cables are provided.



Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable has “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 an S-Video connector.



Component video cables come in sets of three (typically color-coded red, green, and blue), and are for use with video equipment that has component video connectors. Your TV’s ColorStream inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.



DVI-D digital single-link cable is for use with video equipment that has a DVI-D digital single-link connector (see page 15).



TheaterLink cable is used to remotely control other A/V equipment (equipped with an infrared sensor) through the TV (see page 16).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:



For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard stereo A/V (yellow)

video cable.



For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has an S-video

connector, 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 an S-video cable (plus the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection.) If your equipment has a DVI-D digital single-link connector, use a DVI-D cable (plus standard red and white audio cables connected to the audio terminals labeled “For DVI/HDCP IN” for full system connection).

This connection allows you to watch TV programs or basic cable channels.

The TheaterLink allows you to remotely operate (through the TV) most infrared-controlled devices* (such as a Toshiba infraredcontrolled VCR or DVD player) enclosed within an entertainment center or similar cabinet. Without the TheaterLink, the device typically would need to be visible to operate it remotely.

You can use the TV’s remote control (programmed to operate the device; see pages 18–24) or the device’s remote control. Point the remote control at the front of the TV and press the button for the desired function. The signal passes from the remote control through the TV to the device via the TheaterLink cable (included with your TV).

To connect, align the TheaterLink cable’s infrared “eye” with the device’s infrared sensor and attach it using double-sided mounting tape (included with the cable in the accessory pack). Plug the other end of the TheaterLink cable into the TV’s TheaterLink OUT terminal.

You will need:

• one TheaterLink cable (included)

• one piece of double-sided mounting tape (included)
