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 the home with your family and friends. Thank you!

Closed captions
WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?
This television has the capability to decode and display closed captioned
television programs. Closed captioning will display text on the screen for
hearing impaired viewers or it will translate and display text in another
language.
CLOSED
CAPTION
Closed captions
Captions: This closed caption mode will display text on the screen in English or another language (depending on the
setting of the closed captions CH 1/2).
Generally, closed captions in English are transmitted on captions channel 1 and closed captions in other languages
are transmitted on captions channel 2.
Text: The text closed caption mode will usually fill the screen with a programming schedule or other information.
After selecting a closed caption mode, it will stay in effect until it is changed, even if the channel is changed.
If the captions signal is lost due to a commercial or a break in the signal, the captions will reappear when the signal is
received again. If the channels are changed, the captions will be delayed approximately 10 seconds. The captions will
appear in places on the screen where they will least interfere with the picture, usually on the bottom of the screen.
News programs will usually show three-line closed captions which scroll onto the screen.
Most other shows provide two or three lined captions placed near the character who is speaking so the viewer can
follow the dialogue. Words in italics or underlined describe titles, words in foreign languages or words requiring emphasis. Words that are sung usually appear enclosed by musical notes.
For television programs broadcasting with closed captions, look in your TV guide for the closed captions symbol (CC).
TO VIEW CLOSED CAPTIONS
Press CLOSED CAPTION to switch between normal TV and the two closed caption
modes (captions and full screen text). Closed captioning will display text on the screen
for hearing impaired viewers.
Notes:
• When selecting closed captions, the captioning will be delayed approximately 10 seconds.
• If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the caption mode.
• Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during closed captioning. This is normal with closed captioning,
especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not
allow time for editing.
• When captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may not be seen or may interfere with closed
captions.
• Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the closed captioned signal.
• If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the closed caption decoder may not appear or may appear with
strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.
NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECT 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, black/gray bars in wide-screen or PIP/POP formats, stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station
logos, closed captions, and websites) can become permanently ingrained in the picture tube. This type of damage is NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

To obtain a higher quality picture
Occasionally, some picture noise not usually visible during a normal broadcast
may appear on the TV screen while playing a DVD video disc because the high
resolution pictures on these discs include a lot of information. While the amount of
noise depends on the TV you use with this unit, you should generally reduce the
sharpness adjustment on your TV when viewing DVD video discs.

Reception disturbances
Most types of television interference can be remedied by adjusting the height and position of the VHF/UHF
antenna. Outdoor antennas are recommended for best results. The most common types of television
interference are shown below. If one of these symptoms appear when the unit is connected to a Cable TV
system, the disturbance may be caused by the local Cable TV company broadcast.
IGNITION
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, the picture may flutter or
drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,
neon lamps or AC powered tools and appliances such as drills or hair
dryers.
GHOSTS
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is
the direct path and the other is reflected by tall buildings, hills or other
large objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may
improve the reception.
SNOW
If the unit is located far from the TV station, in a fringe reception area
where the signal is weak, small dots may appear in the picture.
If the signal is extremely weak, the installation of a larger external
antenna may be necessary.
RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)
Caused by two-way radios, this type of interference produces moving
ripples or diagonal streaks in the picture. Some cases may cause a
loss of contrast in the picture. Changing the direction and position of
the antenna or installing an RFI filter may improve the picture.
PICTURE SIZE VARIATION
A slight picture size variation is normal when you adjust the CONTRAST
or BRIGHTNESS settings.
Others
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To prevent fire or shock hazard, disconnect the unit from the power source before cleaning.
The finish on the cabinet may be cleaned with mild soap and a soft, damp cloth and cared for as other furniture.
Use caution when cleaning or wiping the plastic parts.
