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.

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!

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

31) [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.

26) 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).

27) 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.

32) 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.

33) 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.

) 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:

28) 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.

29) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a dry cloth.

30) WARNI NG: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

4 0303

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

Service

35) WARN ING: 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.

36) 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.

37)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.

Important Safety Precautions for Split Cabinet Feature

(Model 57HX84 only)

Toshiba TV model 57HX84 has a split cabinet feature that allows disassembly of the cabinet into two sections during installation.

For details, please refer to the insert titled “Disassembly/ Reassembly Instructions for Split Cabinet Feature” that accompanied this owner’s manual in the accessory pack. If you do not have the insert, you can download a copy of it from our Web site (www.toshiba.com/tacp in the U.S.A. or www.toshiba.ca in Canada). If you do not have access to the Internet, call 1-800-631-3811 in the U.S.A. or 1-800268-3404 in Canada.

WARNING: If you split the cabinet for any purpose, NEVER energize the bottom section until it is completely and properly installed.

Energizing the disassembled bottom section and subjecting it to intentional misuse (for example, exposing it to a foreign object) creates the potential for an electrical shock hazard that could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION: If you use the split cabinet feature, ALWAYS

handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet, which contains a glass mirror, with great care. If subjected to excessive mechanical abuse (for example, if bumped or dropped), the mirror may break, creating exposed glass fragments with sharp edges. Contact with these glass fragments may result in injury.

Installation, Care, and Service

CAUTION: The split cabinet feature (model 57HX84 only)

allows disassembly of the cabinet into two sections during installation. If you use the split cabinet feature, follow these precautions while the two sections of the TV cabinet are disassembled:

1) Always handle and treat the top section of the TV cabinet (with the viewing screen), which contains a glass mirror, with great care. If subjected to excessive mechanical abuse (for example, if bumped or dropped), the mirror may break, creating exposed glass fragments with sharp edges. Contact with these glass fragments may result in injury.

2) Never temporarily locate the disassembled bottom section in an area where it may be exposed to foreign objects or abuse (for example, areas where children may be playing, where items may fall on top of the unit, or where liquids may spill into the unit). Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the optic components of the TV. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOS H I BA LIMITED WARRANTY.

3) Always keep the top and bottom sections of the TV cabinet in an upright position while disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the TV, including but not limited to the optic components, cabinet, bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

4) Never energize the bottom section of the TV cabinet

while disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction could result in death or serious injury.

5) Never place anything on top of the disassembled bottom section of the TV cabinet. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the optic components. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVER ED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

6) Never store or transport the unit while it is disassembled. Failure to follow this instruction may result in damage to the TV, including but not limited to the optic components, cabinet, bezel, and glass mirror. SUCH DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TOSHIBA LIMITED WARRANTY.

Connecting

●

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 with S-Video output. Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with

video equipment with component video output. (ColorStream

Toshiba’s brand of component video.) HDMI is for use with video equipment with HDMI output (type A

connectors) (see page 15).

For HDMI or DVI connection, see page 15.

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

If your DVD player is not compatible with component video, HDMI, or DVI, use the S-video connections (plus the standard audio connections) instead (see page 11).

Connecting a DTV receiver/set-top box with

ColorStream

This connection allows you to watch DTV (digital TV), VCR, and TV programs, and record DTV and TV programs.

Your TV has ColorStream (component video) inputs. Connecting your TV to a DTV receiver with component video can greatly enhance picture quality and realism.

–To record and watch a DTV program, select LINE IN on the

VCR, and select ColorStream HD2 (or VIDEO 1 for a nonColorStream connection) on the TV (see “Selecting the antenna input” on page 26).

–To record a TV program while watching a DTV program, tune the

VCR to the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD2 on the TV.

–To record and watch the same TV program, tune the VCR to the

channel to record, and select VIDEO 1 on the TV.

–To record one TV program while watching another TV program,

tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the channel to watch.

You will need:

• three coaxial cables

• two sets of standard A/V cables

• one pair of standard audio cables

• one set of component video cables

(component video) and a VCR

Note:

For the highest possible picture quality, use component video cables (or an HDMI cable) between the TV and DTV receiver/set-top box.

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

For HDMI or DVI connection, see page 15.

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

If your DTV receiver or set-top box is not compatible with component video or HDMI, use the S-video connections (plus the standard audio connections) instead (see page 11).

device.

[3]

This input is designed to accept HDCP material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B– compliant

[4]

consumer electronic devices (such as a set-

program

top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).

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

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

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:

• one HDMI cable (type A connector)

For proper operation, it is recommended that you use a short HDMI cable. You should not encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable shorter than

16.4 ft (5m).

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below). Some CDVs (video CDs) may not output digital audio signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting analog audio cables. However, if you connect analog audio cables with this connection, the HDMI terminal on the TV will not receive the HDMI digital audio signal and you will hear analog audio only.

[1]

HDMI = High-Definition Multimedia Interface.

[2]

DVI = Digital Video Interface.

[3]

HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.

[4]

EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, which is being standardized for reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.

To ensure that the HDMI or DVI 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 HDMI or DVI device.

•When turning off your electronic components,

turn off the HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV.

To connect a DVI device, you will need:

• one HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable (HDMI type A connector)

For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).

• one pair of standard analog audio cables

An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only. Separate analog audio cables are required (see illustration below).
