Where Your TV Stands

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

The Issue

a 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.

a 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!

a The consumer electronics industry

Lamp Unit Replacement

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.

The lamp in this product has a limited service life. The length of service life varies depending on product use and user settings. If you use the lamp beyond its service life:

• you may notice a reduction in the colors and/or brightness of the picture, at which time you should replace the lamp unit; and

• the strength of the quartz glass in the lamp will be reduced and the lamp may rupture. If the lamp ruptures, the TV will not operate until the lamp unit is replaced.

Dispose of the used lamp unit by the approved method for your area.

See “Lamp unit replacement and care”

in Chapter 9.

Note: The lamp unit contains mercury.

Disposal of mercury may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance (www.eiae.org).

Tune Into Safety

a 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).

a Carefully read and understand the other enclosed

instructions for proper use of this product.

a Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs. a Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote

control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

a Remember that children can become excited while watching

a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

a Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home

with your family and friends. Thank you!

Care

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

30) 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.

31) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a soft, dry cloth. Do not spray volatile compounds, such as insecticide, on the cabinet. This may discolor or damage the cabinet.

32)

WARNING:

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

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

33) 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.

34) 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.

35) 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.

36) Special care for DLP® (Digital Light Processing) units:

• The lamp unit in this product has a limited service life.

The length of service life varies depending on product use or user settings. If you use the lamp beyond its service life:

• you may notice a reduction in the colors and/or

brightness of the picture, at which time you should replace the lamp unit; and

• the strength of the quartz glass in the lamp will be

reduced and the lamp may rupture. If the lamp ruptures, the TV will not operate until the lamp unit is replaced. See “Lamp unit replacement and care” in Chapter 9.

• Dispose of the used lamp unit by the approved method

for your area.

• The lamp unit contains mercury. Disposal of

mercury may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance (www.eiae.org).

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a device to the IR OUT infrared terminal using the IR blaster cable for IR pass-through device control

You can use the TV’s IR OUT terminal (infrared passthrough) to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared remote-controlled devices (such as Toshiba infrared remotecontrolled VCRs or DVD players) 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.

You will need:

• dual-wand IR blaster cable (- page 13)

• other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s)

to the TV (- pages 14–19)

Front of IR-controlled DVD player (for example)

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.)

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 the TV’s IR OUT

terminal.

To control the device(s):

Point either the device’s remote control or the TV remote control (that you previously programmed to operate the device; - Chapter 3) toward 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.

Front of IR-controlled audio device (for example)

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.

• The IR pass-through feature does not support all IR-controlled devices; satisfactory performance may not be attainable with certain devices.

*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 point at which 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.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even if they are different brands.

If you have a Toshiba device:

Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba devices (- page 26).

• Always remove batteries from the remote control if they are dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Remote control effective range

For optimum performance, aim the remote control directly at the TV and make sure there is no obstruction between the remote control and the TV.

If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed to operate:

You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the other device (- pages 24–28).

Installing the remote control batteries

1 Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote

control.

Squeeze tab and lift cover.

2 Install two “AAA” size batteries, making sure to match

the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Point remote control toward remote sensor on front of TV.

16.4 ft (5m)

3 Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the

tab snaps.

Caution: Never throw batteries into a fire.

Note:

• Be sure to use AAA size batteries.

• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.

• Batteries should always be disposed of with the

environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

• If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with new ones.

• When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control, always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.
