INSTALLING YOUR TV

Safety Precautions

This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken to obtain the best results and for safety to be assured. Please read the points below for your own safety. They are of a general nature, intended to help with all electronic consumer products, and some points may not apply to the goods you have just purchased.

Air Circulation

Leave more than 10cm clearance around the television to allow adequate ventilation. This will prevent overheating and possible damage to the television. Dusty places should also be avoided.

Heat Damage

Damage may occur if the television is left in direct sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures or humidity. Place in a location where the temperature remains between 5°C min. and 35°C max.

Mains Supply

The mains supply required for this equipment is 220240v AC 50/60Hz. Never connect to a DC supply or any other power source. DO ensure that the television is not standing on the mains lead. Use only the supplied lead.

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment, this incorporates a special Radio Interference Filter, the removal of which will impair its performance.

IF IN DOUBT, PLEASE CONSULT A COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.

DO NOT REMOVE ANY FIXED COVERS AS THIS WILL EXPOSE DANGEROUS AND ‘LIVE’ PARTS.

THE MAINS PLUG IS USED AS A DISCONNECTING DEVICE AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE READILY OPERABLE.

Do not

DO NOT obstruct the ventilation openings of the equipment with items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc. Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment.

DO NOT allow electrical equipment to be exposed to dripping or splashing or objects filled with liquids, such as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

DO NOT place hot objects or naked flame sources, such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

WARNING: To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times.

DO NOT use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws. To ensure complete safety, always fit the manufacturer’s approved stand, bracket or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.

DO NOT leave equipment switched on when it is unattended, unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off by withdrawing the plug, and make sure your family knows how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for people with disabilities.

Do

DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment.

DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and interconnections between pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug before making or changing connections.

DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment.

WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be securely attached to the floor/wall in accordance with the installation instructions. See page 5.

DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment.

DO NOT continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or it is damaged in any way – switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

WARNING – excessive sound pressure from earphones or headphones can cause hearing loss.

ABOVE ALL - NEVER let anyone, especially children, push or hit the screen and cabinet back, or push anything into holes, slots or any other openings in the case. These actions will damage screen or internal parts.

NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind - it is better to be safe than sorry.

INSTALLING YOUR TV

Installation and important information

Where to install

Locate the television away from direct sunlight and strong lights. Soft, indirect lighting is recommended for comfortable viewing. Use curtains or blinds to prevent direct sunlight falling on the screen.

Place the TV on a stable, level surface that can support the weight of the TV. In order to prevent injury and maintain stability of this apparatus, secure the TV to the level surface using the strap if fitted, or to a wall using a sturdy tie to the P clips provided. Otherwise secure the TV on the level surface using the supplied mounting screw.

The LCD display panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is not a sign of a malfunction.

Make sure the television is located in a position where it cannot be pushed or hit by objects, as pressure will break or damage the screen. Also, please be certain that small items cannot be inserted into slots or openings in the case.

INSTALLING YOUR TV

When using the 3D glasses (not supplied)

Cautions on watching 3D images

Some viewers may experience a seizure or blackout when exposed to certain flashing images or lights contained in certain 3D television pictures or video games.

Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or other symptoms linked to an epileptic condition, or has a family history of epilepsy, should contact a health care provider before using the 3D function.

Avoid use of the 3D function when under the influence of alcohol.

If you are ill or feel ill, you should refrain from viewing 3D images, and consult your health care provider as may be appropriate.

If you experience any of the following symptoms when viewing 3D video images, stop viewing and contact your health care provider:

Convulsions, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, altered vision, involuntary movements, disorientation, eye strain, nausea/vomiting, dizziness, headaches.

If you feel eye fatigue or other discomfort from viewing 3D video images, remove the 3D glasses and discontinue use until the condition is eliminated.

Viewing in 3D may cause dizziness and/or disorientation for some viewers.

Therefore, to avoid injury do not place your TV near open stairwells, balconies, or wires.

Also do not sit near objects that could be broken if accidentally hit.

When viewing 3D images, always wear 3D glasses.

Watching 3D images without 3D glasses may cause eye strain.

Use specified 3D glasses.

When watching 3D images, do not wear 3D glasses at an angle and do not lie down.

If you watch while lying down or with the glasses tilted, the 3D effect is lost and it may cause eye strain.

It is recommended that the viewer's eyes and 3D glasses are level with the screen.

If you have prescription eye glasses or contact lenses, wear the 3D glasses over them.

Watching 3D images without appropriate eyewear may cause eye strain.

If 3D images often appear in double or if you cannot see the images in 3D, stop viewing.

Continuous viewing may cause eye strain.

Due to the possible impact on vision development, viewers of 3D video images should be age 6 or above.

Children and teenagers may be more susceptible to health issues associated with viewing in 3D and should be closely supervised to avoid prolonged viewing without rest.

Watching TV while sitting too close to the screen for an extended period of time may cause eye strain.

The ideal viewing distance should be at least three times the screen height.

Notes on IR communication

Do not block the IR sensor for 3D glasses on the TV by placing objects in front of it.

Do not cover the IR sensor on the 3D glasses with stickers or labels.

Keep the IR sensor on the 3D glasses clean.

The use of 3D glasses could interfere with other IR communication devices. Other IR communication devices may cause the 3D glasses not to work correctly. Use the TV and 3D glasses in a place where they will not interfere with other devices or products.

Notes on watching the TV

3D effect and image quality may vary depending upon content quality and display device capability/ functionality/settings.

If you use any device, such as a mobile phone or mobile wireless device, near the 3D glasses, the 3D glasses may not work correctly.

Use the product in the following temperature range; otherwise, the quality of the 3D image or the reliability of the product cannot be guaranteed.

-3D glasses: 0°C - 40°C (32°F - 104°F)

-TV: 0°C - 35°C (32°F - 95°F)

If you use a fluorescent light, it may flicker depending on the frequency of the light. In this case, reduce the brightness of the fluorescent light, or use another light. (It is not recommended to watch the TV in a dark room, especially for children.)

Wear the 3D glasses properly, otherwise you may not see the correct 3D image.

When not viewing 3D images on this unit, take off the 3D glasses; otherwise, it may be difficult to see the display on other products such as PC, digital clock or calculator, etc.

About the connecting cable

Use a high-speed and high-quality HDMI cable when you connect a device such as 3D compatible BD player or PC to the TV. When you use a standard HDMI cable, 3D images may not be shown.

If the 3D PIN number has been forgotten:

Use the Master PIN code of 1276, and then change to a number of your choice. Select 3D PIN from the

PREFERENCES / 3D Setup menu to enter PIN.

6

INSTALLING YOUR TV

Please take note

The digital reception function of this television is only effective in the countries listed in the “Country” section of the “SETUP” menu. Depending on country/area, some of this television's functions may not be available. Reception of future additional or modified services can not be guaranteed with this television.

If stationary images generated by 4:3 broadcasts, text services, channel identification logos, computer displays, video games, on-screen menus, etc. are left on the television screen for any length of time, they could become conspicuous. It is always advisable to reduce both the brightness and contrast settings.

Very long, continuous use of the 4:3 picture on a 16:9 screen may result in some retention of the image at the 4:3 outlines. This is not a defect of the LCD TV and is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. Regular use of other size modes (e.g.: Super Live) will prevent permanent retention.

The LAN port allows your Toshiba TV to connect to your home network. You can use this revolutionary home entertainment networking system to access photo, video and audio files that are stored on a DLNA CERTIFIED™ server and play/display them on your TV.

NOTE:

If you connect to a shared network outside your home, it is advisable to use a router. Always use DLNA CERTIFIED™ products in private network environments. Connect this TV to the same router as other DLNA CERTIFIED™ products (server).

If you use a hub or switch to connect the TV to your home network, you may not be able to use the automatic setup and will have to manually set up the network address. See page 36.

If you use a router with built-in DHCP functionality, use the automatic setup. Manual setup may not work.

If you connect the TV and PC directly, use a crossover LAN cable.

To connect the TV to a home network - Wired

To connect the TV to a home network with an internet connection - Wireless

Energy efficiency cuts energy consumption and thus saves money by reducing electricity bills.

NOTE: Putting the television into standby mode will reduce energy consumption, but will still draw some power.
