may cause a fire or an electric shock.
WARNING ABOUT THREE-WIRE GROUNDINGTYPE PLUG:
• This product shall be connected to a main socket
outlet with a protective earthing connection.
• Never remove the earthing pin on the power plug.
This system is equipped with a three pin earthingtype power plug. This plug will only fit an earthingtype power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact an

• Never defeat the purpose of the earthing plug.
Ex. 220-240V AC, 50/60Hz
Check!
3) Never place the TV in an unstabilized location such
as on a shaky table, incline or location subject to
vibration.
The TV may drop or fall off which may cause an injury
or damage.
4) Never block or cover the slots and openings in the

• Never place the TV so that it is facing upward or on
its side.
• Never place the TV in a closet, bookcase or other
similar area where the ventilation is poor.
• Never drape a newspaper, tablecloth or curtain on the
TV.
• When installing the TV against a wall, always keep
the TV at least 10 cm away from the wall.
• Never place the TV on a soft unstable surface, such
as a carpet, or a cushion.
The inside of this TV will overheat if the ventilation holes
are covered, blocked or sealed, which may result in a
fire.
5) Never place the TV near a heater or in direct
sunlight.
The surface of the cabinet or power cord may melt and
result in a fire or an electric shock.
About the fuse
In a three pin earthing-type, the fuse fitted in this plug is
approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362. It should only be
replaced by a correctly rated and approved type and the
fuse cover must be refitted.
2) Never insert or remove the power plug with wet

Introduction
7) Never place the TV next to a stove where it will be
exposed to oil, smoke, or steam, or in a location
where there is a large quantity of dust.
This may cause a fire or an electric shock.
8) Install the TV in a horizontal, stable location.

5) When the TV will not be used for a long period of
time, such as during vacation or travel, remove the
power plug from the wall outlet for safety.
• The TV is not completely disconnected from the
power supply line, as minute current is consumed
even when the ! Power switch is turned off.

This is not a sign of a malfunction.
2) Periodically disconnect the power plug from the
outlet and check it.
If dust has collected on the power plug connectors,
clean off the dust with a dry cloth.
This dust may cause a fire due to reduced insulation on
the plug.

Getting started
Connecting an antenna
Optimum reception of color requires a good signal and will
generally mean that an outdoor antenna must be used.
The exact type and positioning of the antenna will depend upon
your particular area.
Your Toshiba dealer or service personnel can best advise you
on which antenna to use in your area.
Before connecting the antenna cable, turn off all main power
switches.

Exploring your new TV
Installing the remote control batteries
Remove the battery cover.
Insert two R03 (AAA) batteries matching the –/+ polarities of
the battery to the –/+ marks inside the battery compartment.
Cautions:
• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Never
throw batteries into a fire.
• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of
battery disposal.
• Never mix battery types or combine used batteries with new
ones.
Notes:
• 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.
