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!

24) Always operate this equipment from a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source only.

30) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.

25) Always make sure the antenna system is properly grounded to provide adequate protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges (see Section 810 of the National Electric Code).

26) DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL

INJURY OR DEATH!

• Use extreme care to make sure you are never in

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.

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 engrained 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, 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).

Connecting your TV

Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.

●

Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses “F” connectors.

●

Standard A/V (audio/video) 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. On your TV’s back panel, the 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 input.

●

Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with video equipment that has component video inputs. (ColorStream

Toshiba’s brand of component video.)

●

DVI-D digital single-link cable is for use with video equipment that has a DVI-D digital single-link connector (see page 13).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:

●

For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.

●

For BETTER picture quality: input, 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 the 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 (or DVI) inputs, use either component video cables (or a DVI cable) instead of a standard video or S-video cable. (You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect the standard yellow video cable or an S-Video cable at the same time.)

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality, use component video cables (or a DVI-D digital single-link cable) between the TV and DTV receiver/set-top box.

You can connect component video cables to either set of ColorStream jacks on the TV (HD1 or HD2).

The ColorStream HD1/HD2 and DVI/HDCP jacks can be used with Progressive (480p, 720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan systems; however, a 1080i signal will provide the best picture performance.

For DVI/HDCP connection, see page 13.

If your DTV receiver or set-top box is not compatible with component video or DVI/HDCP, use the S-video connections (plus the standard audio connections) instead (see page 9).

Connecting a device to the DVI/HDCP input

The DVI/HDCP1 input on your TV is designed to accept HDCP program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861–compliant

consumer electronic devices, such as a set-top box or DVD player equipped with a DVI-D digital single-link output connection.

The DVI/HDCP input is designed for best performance with 1080i high-definition video signals. The DVI/HDCP input also will accept and display 480p, 720p, and 480i picture signals.

Note: This TV is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a PC (personal computer).

You will need:

• one coaxial cable

• one DVI-D digital single-link cable

Note: For proper operation, the DVI-D cable length should not exceed 3m (9.8 ft). The recommended length is 2m (6.6 ft).

• one pair of standard audio cables

Notes:

DVI/HDCP = Digital Visual Interface/ High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.

EIA/CEA-861 compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, which is being standardized for future reception of high-definition video signals.

Consult your consumer electronics dealer for availability.

Caution:

To ensure that the DVI/HDCP 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 DVI/HDCP device.

• When turning off your electronic

components, turn off the DVI/HDCP device first, and then the TV.

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter” on page 16.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Slide the battery cover off the back of the remote control.

2. Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Note:

Your TV’s remote control may not operate certain features on your VCR, cable TV converter, or other electronic device.

Refer to the owner’s manuals for your other devices to determine their available features.

If your TV’s remote control does not operate a specific feature on a device, use the remote control that came with the device.

Caution:

• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a fire.

• Do not mix 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 use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

3. Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the lock snaps.

Using the remote control with a VCR or cable TV converter

If you own a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate, you must program the remote control to recognize your device. See page 16.

To control a VCR:

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the VCR position. The buttons shown at right will then control the VCR. The unshaded buttons will operate the TV as usual.

For future reference, write down the codes you used:

1. Refer to the “VCR code table” or “Cable TV converter code table” on pages 17–18 to find the code for your VCR or converter.

If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find one that works.

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

• VCR, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the remote control

to VCR.

• Cable converter, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the

remote control to CABLE.

3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the Number buttons (0–9) to enter the three-digit code for your brand of VCR or converter.

4. Point the remote control at the VCR or converter and press POWER to test the code.

If the VCR or converter turns on, you have entered the correct code.

Note: In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not operational, repeat the device code setup using another code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your device, use the device’s original remote control.

If the VCR or converter does not respond to the remote control, you may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 1–4 with another code.

5. Reset the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to TV to control the TV.
