CHILD SAFETY:
It Makes A Difference How and Where You Use Your Flat
Panel Display
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your
new product, please keep these safety tips in mind:
The Issue
• The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend
and larger flat panel displays are popular purchases. However,
flat panel displays are not always supported on the proper stands
or installed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
Tune Into Safety
•
One size does NOT fit all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations
for the safe installation and use of your flat panel display.
• Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for
proper use of this product.
• Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and
television sets.
• Don’t place flat panel displays on
furniture that can easily be used as
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
• Remember that children can
become excited while watching a
program, especially on a “larger
than life” flat panel display. Care
should be taken to place or install
the display where it cannot be
pushed, pulled over, or knocked down.
• Care should be taken to route all cords and
cables connected to the flat panel display so that they cannot be
pulled or grabbed by curious children.
Wall Mounting: If you decide to wall mount your
flat panel display, always:
• Use a mount that has been recommended by the display
manufacturer and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such
as UL, CSA, ETL).
• Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount
manufacturers.
• If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your
flat panel display, contact your retailer about professional
installation.
• Make sure that the wall where you are mounting the display is
appropriate. Some wall mounts are not designed to be mounted
to walls with steel studs or old cinder block construction. If you
are unsure, contact a professional
installer.
• A minimum of two people are
required for installation. Flat panel
displays can be heavy.
• Flat panel displays that are
inappropriately situated on dressers,
bookcases, shelves, desks,
speakers, chests or carts may fall
over and cause injury.
TOSHIBA Cares!
• The consumer electronics industry
is committed to making home
entertainment enjoyable and safe.

Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
34) If you use the TV in a room whose temperature is
32 °F (0 °C) or below, the picture brightness may
vary until the LCD warms up. This is not a sign of
malfunction.
35) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Gently wipe
the display panel surface
(the TV screen) using a
dry, soft cloth only (cotton,
flannel, etc.). A hard cloth
may damage the surface
of the panel. Avoid contact
with alcohol, thinner,
benzene, acidic or alkaline solvent cleaners, abrasive
cleaners, or chemical cloths, which may damage
the surface. Never spray volatile compounds such
as insecticide on the cabinet. Such products may
damage or discolor the cabinet.
36)
Never hit, press, or place anything on the back cover.
These actions will damage internal parts.
37)
Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into
the TV cabinet slots.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Overview of cable types
Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/
video devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of
connector types required by your devices and the length
of each cable.
Coaxial (F-type) cable
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your
antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box
to the ANT/CABLE input on your TV.
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come
in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with
analog audio and composite video output. These cables
(and the related inputs on your TV) are typically colorcoded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo
right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.
Component video cables (red/green/blue)
Component video cables come in sets of three and are
for use with video devices with component video output.
(ColorStream® is Toshiba’s brand of component video.)
These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and
blue. Separate audio cables are required for a complete
connection.
Note: Component video cables provide better
picture performance than a standard (composite)
video.
Optical audio cable
Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with
Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical
audio input to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal
( page 18).
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting
a PC to the TV’s PC IN terminal ( page 18).
Note: Separate audio cables are required for a
complete connection.
3.5mm Stereo to RCA Y-cable
3.5mm Stereo to RCA Y-Cable is for connecting audio
signal from DVI device to TV.
About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to
your TV in several different configurations. The connection
illustrations in this manual are representative of typical
device connections only. The input/output terminals on
your devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For
details on connecting and using your specific devices, refer
to each device’s owner’s manual.
HDMI® cable
(with HDMI Logo “ ”)
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable
is for use with devices with an HDMI output. An
HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its
native format. This cable carries both video and audio
information; therefore, separate audio cables are not
required for a complete HDMI device connection (
page 16 and page 19).
Note: An HDMI cable provides the best audio and
picture performance.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting an HDMI® or DVI
device to the HDMI input
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio
and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI
source device, or uncompressed digital video from a
DVI (Digital Visual Interface) source device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP (HighBandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program
material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861-D–
compliant
a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI
output).
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA,
SVGA, XGA, WXGA, SXGA, 480i (60Hz), 480p
(60Hz), 720p (60Hz), 1080i (60Hz) and 1080p
(24Hz/60Hz) signal formats. For detailed signal
specifications, see page 56.
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate
32/44.1/ 48 kHz
Note: To connect a PC to the HDMI input, see page 19.
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
•
[1]
consumer electronic devices (such as
One HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device
For proper operation, it is recommended that
−
you use an HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo
