Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

 If you are like most Americans, 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!

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

29) [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.

24) 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).

25) 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.

30)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.

31) 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.

32) 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).

Care

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:

26) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove the source of reflections while viewing the TV.

27) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

28) WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

4 FEB02

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV cabinet slots.

Service

33) WARNI NG: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Never attempt to service the

TV yourself. Opening and

removing the covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

34) If you have the TV serviced:

• Ask the service technician to use only replacement parts

specified by the manufacturer.

• Upon completion of service, ask

the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the TV is in safe operating condition.

35) When the TV reaches the end of its useful life, ask a

qualified service technician to properly dispose of the TV. Improper disposal may result in a picture tube implosion and possible personal injury.

This connection allows you to use an audio amplifier to adjust the audio level. This also allows you to use external speakers.

To control the audio, turn on the TV and the stereo amplifier, and turn off the built-in speakers (see “Turning off the built-in speakers” on page 48).

You will need:

• one pair of audio cables

Note:

To hear sound when using an external audio amplifier, the volume of both the TV and the amplifier must be set above 0 (zero).

For example, if the volume of the TV is set to 0, you will not be able to hear any sound, even the volume of the amplifier is at its highest level.

Introduction

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 VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 15.)

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 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.

Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or a cable TV converter

This remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs. To use VCRs or cable converters other than Toshiba models, you must follow the steps below before you operate your remote control.

1. Refer to the “VCR code table” or “Cable TV converter code table” on pages 16-17 to find the number that corresponds to the brand name of your VCR or converter.

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

2. If you are reprogramming 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 of 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.

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.

Adjusting the color convergence

This projection TV uses three separate TV tubes: red, green, and blue. The red, green, and blue images are projected onto the screen where they converge to form a full-color picture. You can see a clear picture only when the three images converge correctly. Convergence may drift over time or if you move the TV. If you can see clear images on your TV screen, skip this procedure.

This adjustment should be made only after the TV has been on for at least 30 minutes.

Automatically adjusting the color convergence using TouchFocus™ (model 43H72 only)

Press TOUCHFOCUS on the TV once. The TV will enter auto-convergence mode, and adjust convergence automatically.

Adjusting the channel settings

Switching between two channels using Channel Return

The Channel Return feature allows you to switch between two channels without entering an actual channel number each time.

1. Select the first channel (or video mode) you want to view.

2. Select a second channel using the Channel Number buttons (0–9, 100).

4. Press CH RTN. The previous channel will display.

Each time you press CH RTN, the TV will switch back and forth between the last two channels that were selected.

Switching between two channels using Advanced Channel Return

The Advanced Channel Return feature temporarily “memorizes” one channel in the CH RTN button, so you can return to that channel quickly from any other channel by pressing CH RTN.

To memorize a channel in the CH RTN button:

1. Select the channel you want to program into the CH RTN button.

2. Press and hold CH RTN for about 2 seconds until the message “Channel Memorized” appears (flashing) on the screen. The channel has been programmed into the CH RTN button.

3. Continue to change channels until your desired channel is selected.

4. Press CH RTN. The memorized channel will be selected.

The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only. Once you press CH RTN and then change channels again, the CH RTN button memory will be cleared and the button will function as Channel Return, by switching back and forth between the last two channels that were selected.

Programming your favorite channels

You can preset up to 9 of your favorite channels each for FAVORITE CH1 and FAVORITE CH2 modes using the Favorite Channel Programming feature. Because this feature scans through only your favorite channels, it allows you to skip other channels you do not normally watch.

To program your favorite channels:

1. Press MENU, and then press x or • until the CUSTOM menu appears.

2. Press y or z to highlight FAVORITE CH1 or FAVORITE CH2.

NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE

EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE TUBE

Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended periods of time. Fixed (non-moving) images (such as still PIP/POP windows or black/gray bars in wide-screen picture or PIP/POP formats) can become permanently engrained in the picture tube. This type of damage is NOT

COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY

because it is the result of misuse. See item 32 on page 4.

While the above menu is on-screen, select the desired picture size by pressing the corresponding number button (0–3).

Normal mode

The Normal picture size displays the picture in the conventional 4:3 aspect ratio. A wide (16:9) picture signal is stretched vertically to fill the screen.

Wide (16:9) signal Normal mode

Page 29

Letterbox and Compression modes

The Letterbox and Compression modes display the wide picture (16:9) with bars at top and bottom. The picture retains its true proportion.

Letterbox (recommended mode):

• The picture is horizontally stretched, with gray bars at the top

and bottom.

• The picture quality is lower than in the Compression mode

because of a reduction in the scanning lines.

• There is a slightly lower chance of permanently engraining

stationary patterns in the picture tube than in Compression mode because there is a small amount of raster in the bars at the top and bottom.

Squeezed signal Letterbox mode

Compression:

• The picture is vertically compressed, with black bars at the top

and bottom.

•

The exact image is reproduced and the picture quality is better because of more effective use of scanning lines.

• There is a greater chance of permanently engraining stationary

patterns in the picture tube than in the Letterbox mode, since there is no raster in the bars at the top and bottom.

Note:

You can also change the image shape using the menu system. Select IMAGE SHAPE HD1 or HD2 in the THEATER menu.

Note :

A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those TV stations that offer it.

For example, a station might broadcast music as a second audio program. If you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the screen but hear music instead of the program’s normal audio.

However, if you have SAP on, and the station you are watching is not currently broadcasting a second audio program, you will see the picture but not hear any sound. If this happens, put the TV in STEREO mode so you can hear the station’s normal audio.
