areas subject to excessive dust or vibration.
26)
Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level,
stable surface that can support the weight of the
unit. To secure the TV, use a sturdy strap from the
hook(s) on the rear of the TV to a wall stud, pillar,
or other immovable structure. Make sure the strap
is tight, secure, and parallel to the floor.
27)
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.
28)
Never block or cover the slots or openings in the
TV cabinet back, bottom, and sides. Never place
the TV:
• on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface;
• too close to drapes, curtains, or walls; or
• in a confined space such as a bookcase, built-in
cabinet, or any other place with poor ventilation.
29)
Always leave a space of at least 4 (four) inches
around the TV. The slots and openings are
provided to protect the TV from overheating and to
help maintain reliable operation of the TV.

Never allow anything to rest on or roll over the
power cord, and never place the TV where the
power cord is subject to wear or abuse.
31)
Never overload wall outlets and extension cords.
32)
Always operate this equipment from a 120 VAC,

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:
35)
If you use the TV in a room whose temperature is
32° F (0° C) or below, the picture brightness may
vary until the LCD warms up. This is not a sign of
malfunction.
36)
When cleaning:
• Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Gently
wipe the display panel surface (the TV screen)
using a dry, soft cloth (cotton, flannel, etc.). A
hard cloth may damage the surface of the panel.
Avoid contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene,
acidic or alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive
cleaners, or chemical cloths, which may damage
the surface. Never spray volatile compounds
such as insecticide on the cabinet. Such
products may damage or discolor the cabinet.
• Never use using chemicals (such as air
refreshers, cleaning agents, etc.) on or near the
TV pedestal. Studies indicate that plastics may
weaken and crack over time from the
combination effects of chemical agents and
mechanical stress (such as weight of TV).
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
serious injury and/or permanent damage to TV
and TV pedestal.
37)
WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into
the TV cabinet slots.

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.
40)
Always unplug the TV to completely disconnect
from mains power. When the TV is turned off using
the on/off switch, it is not completely disconnected
from power and a minute amount of current is still
consumed.
41)
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 Provider.

dangerous voltage or other hazards. Failure to
follow this WARNING may result in death or
serious injury. Refer all servicing not specified in
this manual to a Toshiba Authorized Service
Provider.
45)
If you have the TV serviced:
• Ask the service technician to use only
replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer.

the TV reaches the end of its useful life, dispose of
the used TV by the approved method for your
area, or ask a qualified service technician to
properly dispose of the TV.
Note: The lamp(s) inside this product
contain mercury. Disposal may be
regulated due to environmental
considerations. For disposal or recycling

Important notes about your LCD TV
The following symptoms are technical limitations of
LCD Display technology and are not an indication of
malfunction; therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for
perceived issues resulting from these symptoms.
1)
An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if
a fixed, non-moving image appears for a long
period of time. The afterimage is not permanent
and will disappear in a short period of time.
2)

Overview of installation, setup, and use
Follow these steps to set up your TV and begin using its many
exciting features.
1 Carefully read the important safety, installation, care, and
service information. Keep this manual for future reference.
2 To choose a location for the TV:
❖ Read “Important notes about your LCD TV” on page 7.
❖ Place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable surface
that can support the weight of the unit. Secure the TV to a
wall, pillar, or other immovable structure, see page 4.
Page 17
Introduction
Overview of installation, setup, and use
❖ Place the TV in a location where light does not reflect on
the screen.
❖ Place the TV far enough from walls and other objects to
allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause
overheating, which will damage the TV. THIS TYPE OF
DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA
WARRANTY.
3 Do not plug in any power cords until after you have connected
all cables and devices to your TV.
4 Before connecting cables or devices to the TV, learn the
functions of the TV’s connections and controls, see “Overview
of cable types” on page 21.
5 Connect your other electronic device(s) to the TV, see
“Connecting an HDMI® or DVI device to the HDMI® input”
on page 26.
6 Install the batteries in the remote control, see “Installing
batteries” on page 35.
7 See “Learning about the remote control” on page 37 for an
overview of the buttons on the remote control.
8 After connecting all cables and devices, plug in the power
cords for your TV and other devices. Then press the Power
button on the TV control panel or remote control to turn on the
TV. If the TV stops responding to the buttons on the remote
control or TV control panel and you cannot turn the TV off or
on, unplug the power cords for a few seconds and then plug
them in and try again.
