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.
We Care!
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
your family and friends. Thank you!

Important notes about your DLPTM projection TV
1) The light source for this TV is a projection lamp unit with a
limited service life. When the lamp wears out, the picture may
become dark or black, or the lamp may fail, at which time you
must replace the lamp unit. See “Lamp unit replacement and
care” on pages 98–100.
2) Each time you turn on the TV, it may take several seconds to go
from no picture to full picture brightness.
3) The display on this TV is manufactured using a chip that may
contain up to 1.3 million microscopic mirrors. Each of these
micromirrors measures less than one-fifth the width of a human
hair and represents a single pixel on the television display.
These micromirrors are mounted on tiny hinges that enable
them to titlt either toward the light source (ON) or away
from it (OFF). Occasionally, one of these mirrors may become
inoperative, creating a light or dark pixel on the projection
surface. This is a structural property of DLP™ projection TV
technology, and is not a sign of malfunction. Such pixels are
not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing
distance (see item 29 on page 4).
4) Depending on the media you are viewing, it is possible, although
unlikely, that a limited number of viewers may see a “rainbow
effect” on the screen, which can, in rare instances, result in eye
Contents
fatigue. This is a rare occurrence related to technology of this
type, and is not a sign of TV malfunction.
5) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and as
directly in front of it as possible. The picture quality may be
affected by your viewing position and length of viewing time. If
you sit too closely to the TV for too long, you may suffer from
eye fatigue. See item 29 on page 4.
6)This TV contains several cooling fans to moderate the
internal temperature. You may be able to hear the fans
for several minutes after the TV is turned off. This is a
function of the Quick Restart Low Power Shutdown mode and
is not a sign of TV malfunction. You can set the Quick Restart
feature to stop the fans as soon as the TV is turned off. See
“Selecting the Quick Restart feature” on page 50.
7) The green and red LED lights on the control touchpad (on the
lower right corner of the TV screen) indicate your TV’s current
status. If either light flashes, see “LED indications” on page 94
for details.
8) Review all safety and operating information in this owner’s
manual before you use your TV.

Connecting an analog audio system
This connection allows you to use external speakers with an
external audio amplifier to adjust the sound level.
You will need:
one pair of standard audio cables
To control the audio:
Turn on the TV and the stereo amplifier.
Turn off the TV’s built-in speakers (see “Turning off the built-in
speakers” on page 81).
Note: To hear sound when using an external audio amplifier,
the volume of both the TV and the amplifier must be set to a
reasonable listening level.
Controlling infrared remote-controlled devices through the TV (IR pass-through)
You can use the TV’s IR OUT jack (infrared pass-through)
to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared
remote-controlled devices (such as a Toshiba infrared
remote-controlled VCR or DVD player) enclosed within
an entertainment center or similar cabinet. Without the
IR OUT connection, the device typically would need to be
visible to operate it remotely.
Front of IR-controlled DVD player (for example)
You will need:
one dual-wand IR blaster cable (included with your TV)
other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s)
to the TV (see pages 13–20)
To connect the IR blaster cable:
1. Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device.
This sensor is marked on some devices.*
2. Align one of the IR blaster cable’s wands about 1 inch away
from the infrared sensor on the front of the device and
attach it using double-sided mounting tape. If you have a
second device, attach the second wand in a similar manner.
(See illustration at right.)
Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the second wand
with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.
3. Plug the IR blaster cable’s plug into one of the TV’s
TheaterNet OUT jacks.
To control the device(s):
Point the TV remote control
(programmed to operate the
device; see Chapter 3) or the
device’s 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 IR blaster cable.
Note:
• If you use the device’s remote
control to operate the device, you
also will need to use the TV’s remote control to operate the TV.
• For additional control options, see “TheaterNet on-screen device
control” at right.
*
If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:
1. Turn OFF the device.
2. Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place the end of the
device’s remote control (with the infrared emitter) so it touches the
front of the device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV’s remote
control for this step.)
3. If the device turns on, the place the remote control touched the
device is the location of the sensor.
4. If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the
right and press POWER again.
5. Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared sensor.

TheaterNet™ on-screen device control
For additional control options
for your home theater system,
set up the TheaterNet on-screen
device control feature. You can
use this feature to control many
IR remote-controlled devices
and IEEE-1394 devices using
the on-screen control icons.
See pages 44–48 for details on
setting up and using TheaterNet.
See pages 22–24 for details on
connecting IEEE-1394 devices.
Note: The TheaterNet icon controls are the only device functions
available when the icons are on-screen. To access other device
functions, close the TheaterNet icon window.
You can use the two bi-directional IEEE-1394 ports on the back
of your TV to connect digital video devices that meet CEA
specifications for IEEE-1394.
Because these ports are bi-directional, they can be used for both
playback and recording.
• Because IEEE-1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some
or all of the connectivity features of a device you connect to the TV
through the IEEE-1394 ports may not operate. You should confirm
that the devices you desire to use with the IEEE-1394 ports will
operate with those ports.
•This TV does not support all possible IEEE-1394 signal types. For
information on signals supported by the IEEE-1394 ports, see
“Supported signals” at right.
•IEEE-1394 cable carries both audio and video information;
no separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.
You will need:
one (or two) IEEE-1394 cables
Note: The transmission capability of IEEE-1394 cable used with this
TV must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum).

Using analog-compatible IEEE-1394
devices
Some digital IEEE-1394 devices are compatible with analog
signals. For example, some D-VHS VCRs can record and play
VHS or S-VHS format videos. Such devices allow you to play
analog tapes that you rented or recorded, or record analog
programs from antenna or Cable TV systems. To use the
IEEE-1394 device’s analog features, you need to connect the
device to the TV using standard A/V cables (or S-video plus
audio cables) in addition to connecting the IEEE-1394 cable.
Note: If you have an IEEE-1394 device connected to both
digital and analog inputs on the TV, the TV automatically
switches between analog and digital modes, as needed, when
the initial device access is initiated using the TheaterNet button.
See page 44 for details on using the TheaterNet feature.
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THIS TV
TO A PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC).
THIS TV IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH A PC.
Supported signals
The IEEE-1394 ports support the signals listed below only.
Although incompatible video, audio, and digital control signals
cannot be decoded by the TV, these signals may be passed
through the IEEE-1394 cable to other compatible devices.
™
Incompatible devices may not appear in the TheaterNet
menu.
•MPEG-2 digital video signals
Other digital video signals—such as DV video—are
incompatible and must be decoded by the source device and
sent to the TV as analog video (composite or S-video).
• Dolby Digital and MPEG digital audio signals
Other digital audio signals (such as DPM, MP3, and DTS)
are incompatible and cannot be decoded by the TV.
•EIA-775 and AV/C digital control
Your TV can serve as the control center for many devices
that are compatible with EIA-775 or AV/C IEEE-1394
control standards (described below).
The TV cannot control IEEE-1394 devices that use any other
control standards.
– EIA-775 digital control allows tuning devices (such as
Cable boxes) to send simple graphics; however, this
standard does not allow the TV to control the Cable box
through IEEE-1394.
– AV/C (audio/video control) provides basic control (such
as power, play, stop rewind, fast-forward, pause, and
record), as applicable to the specific device.
Using TheaterNet™ on-screen device
control
You can use the TheaterNet feature to control some IEEE-1394
devices using on-screen control icons. See page 44 for details on
setting up and using the TheaterNet feature.
Note: If the TheaterNet feature does not control your
IEEE-1394, you can try using IR pass-through with the TV’s
remote control (page 21) or use the device’s remote control.
Connecting an AVHD (external hard
drive) or D-VHS digital recorder
You can connect an IEEE-1394 compatible D-VHS or AVHD
(audio/video hard drive) digital recorder (such as Toshiba’s
™
Symbio
160HD4 AVHD) to record high definition and
standard definition material from either tuner and control live
TV (pause, rewind, etc.).
When you connect a D-VHS or AVHD device to the TV:
• The remote control keys (LIVE, REW, PAUSE, PLAY, FF,
etc.) are automatically activated to allow control of live TV.
• The TV Guide On Screen system is automatically configured
to allow recording to the device.* See Chapters 5 and 7 for
details. Also see page 49 for details on setting the AVHD
device skip time.
•Some programs may not be recorded due to copy protection
restrictions.
This TV is compatible with the new Toshiba
™
Symbio
Audio/Video Hard Drive Recorder!
Toshiba’s Symbio model 160HD4 is an audio/video hard drive
(AVHD) recorder designed specifically for high definition
television (HDTV). The Symbio AVHD recorder offers control
over digital video recording and playback. Think of it as a
“tapeless VCR” for digital television. You can pause, rewind, or
use instant replay, so you’ll never miss a thing. However, unlike a
traditional VCR, where you wait for a program to finish recording
before you start watching it, the Symbio AVHD recorder allows
you to “pause live TV.” For example, you can pause, rewind, and
play back a program while it is being recorded. Since there is no
tape to rewind, you can view a program that started recording
20 minutes ago, even while it is still recording.
Symbio also offers one-touch recording* of both standard and
High Definition programs through the no-fee TV Guide On Screen
interactive program guide built in to this TV.
___________
*If you are connecting a Symbio AVHD recorder, in order to use its full
functionality, you must first set up the TV Guide On Screen system (see
Chapter 5).
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THIS TV
TO A PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC).
THIS TV IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE WITH A PC.
IEEE-1394 device initialization
When you connect a new IEEE-1394 device to the TV and turn
it on, the device immediately announces its presence to the TV
(and other networked IEEE-1394 devices, if any), and the
following device initialization screen automatically appears.
Note: With some devices, it may take up to one minute
for this screen to appear.
1. If you have connected your IEEE-1394 device to an analog
input also, use the
the ANALOG INPUT USED field; otherwise, leave it set
to “None.” (See “Using analog-compatible IEEE-1394
devices” on page 22.)
2. If you want to label the device, highlight EDIT LABEL and
press ENTER.
3. Press the
yzx•
space and then press ENTER.
4. Repeat step 3 to enter the rest of the characters.
5. Highlight SAVE and press ENTER to save the information.
Note:
•The TV may not recognize non-A/V or non-compatible
IEEE-1394 devices; however, these devices may still be available
to other compatible IEEE-1394 devices on the network.
•You may be able to use the TV’s remote control to operate some
compatible IEEE-1394 devices. You must first program the

Important information regarding
IEEE-1394 device interconnection
Note:
• Do not loop the last device in the chain back to the TV.
If the device chain is looped, the TV may not work properly with the
other devices in the chain.
• Place devices with the slowest communication speed atthe end of each chain. If a device with a slower communication
speed is placed ahead of a faster device in the chain, the signal
from the slower device will interfere with the signal from the faster
device. To determine the communication speed of an IEEE-1394
device, look for an “S” number near the device’s IEEE-1394
connector. The higher the “S” number, the faster the device. If your
device is not marked with an “S” number, look in the device’s user
manual or call the device manufacturer’s technical support number.
• If your IEEE-1394 device has a two-position power
switch, place the device at the end of the chain or leave
the power switch ON at all times. If the power switch is OFF,
it will interfere with signals from devices behind it in the chain.
• The maximum length for an IEEE-1394 cable between
each device is 15 feet.
•This TV is an IEEE-1394A device. The IEEE-1394B protocol is
faster and intended to allow for longer distances between devices
and multi-room systems. IEEE-1394A–to–IEEE-1394B converters
(available at some electronics suppliers) may allow compatibility of
IEEE-1394B devices with your existing IEEE-1394A devices.
•The transmission capability of IEEE-1394 cable used with this TV
must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum).

Programming the remote control to operate your other devices
Device code setup
1. Refer to the multi-brand remote control device code table
on pages 32–33 to find the code for the brand of your
device.
If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until
you find the one that works.
2. Press MODE until the Mode indicator for the device
(CBL/SAT, VCR/PVR, DVD, AUDIO 1, AUDIO 2)
lights up.
3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the
Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code for
your brand of device. If a valid code is entered, the mode
indicator will blink twice. If an invalid code is entered, the
mode indicator will blink one long blink.
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER to
test the code.
If the device responds to the remote control:
You have entered the correct code.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
You may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3
and 4 using another 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.
5. Press MODE to select the TV mode to control the TV.
Note:
• Although the TV remote control includes codes for many devices, it may
not include codes for some or all of the features on certain devices you
wish to control. If you are unable to program the TV remote control to
operate your device or some of the features on that device, use the
device’s remote control or the controls on the device.
• Each time you change the batteries you will need to reprogram the
remote control.
• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These VCRs have a
switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and
does not respond to the codes for your VCR brand, set the switch to the
other position (“VCR1” or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.
Searching and sampling the code
of a device (8500)
If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you
can cycle the remote control through the available codes for that
device mode and sample the functions to find the code that
operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled,
provided they are applicable to that mode, are POWER, 1,
VOL y, CH y, and PLAY. Invalid keys will be ignored while in
program mode.
To cycle through each available device code and sample its
functions:
1. Press MODE to select the mode you want to set up.
2. While holding down RECALL, press 8–5–0–0.
The remote control will enter program mode.
3. Point the remote control at the target device and press
POWER (or other function buttons that are available to be
sampled).
4. If the device responds to the remote control:
Press RECALL to store the device code. The mode
indicator will blink twice and the remote control will exit
the program mode.
If the device does not respond to the remote control:
Press y, and then press POWER.
Repeat this step until the device responds to the remote
control, and then press RECALL.
Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode
indicator will blink three times. The remote control will
begin to cycle through the available codes again. If no key
is pressed within 10 seconds while programming, the
remote control will exit the program mode and return to the
previous code.
