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!

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!

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind

into the TV cabinet slots.

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.

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).

Service

33) WARNING: 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.

You will need:

•two coaxial cables

•one set of standard A/V cables

Note:

If using a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to

VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

For better picture quality, if your VCR has S-

video, you can use an S-video cable instead

of the standard video cable. Do not connect a

standard video cable and an S-video cable to

VIDEO1 simultaneously.

Connecting a VCR

This connection allows you to watch local channels and video programs,

play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and record from one

channel while watching another channel.

Connecting

your TV

Connecting your TV

If you haven’t connected electronic equipment before, or you have

been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cables

are not supplied.)

•A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your

antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

•Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded

according to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The

red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio

cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear

panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded in

the same manner as the cables.

•S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video cables

can only be used with S-video compatible components.

•Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the best

picture performance. Component video cables can only be used

with component video compatible components.

Connecting a cable converter box

This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable

channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some

cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is

scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the

use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable

company.

For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box,

connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack

on the back of the television.

For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/

Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/

Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna

Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown

below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler

box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to

select channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with

Scrambled Premium Channels

If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are

unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/

Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (some-

times called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box from the cable

installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown

below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any

nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position,

tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually

channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.

Note:

When you use a converter box with your TV,

there may be features that you cannot

program using the remote control, such as

labeling channels, blocking channels, and

programming your favorite channels.

converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See

“Programming the remote control for use with a VCR, DVD player, or

cable TV converter” on page 12.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.

2. Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the

batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.

To control a VCR:

Program the remote

control to recognize

the brand of your VCR

(see “Programming the

remote control for use

with a VCR, DVD

player, or cable TV

converter” on page

12). The buttons

shown at right will then

control the VCR. Press

the VCR button first.

operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV

converter. Refer to the owner’s manuals

supplied with the equipment to see which

features are available. In addition, the original

controllers may have features not available on

this remote control. If you would like to

continue to use these features, you may want

to use the original remote control.

Cautions:

•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.

•Remove dead batteries immediately to

prevent battery acid from leaking into the

battery compartment.

•If you do not intend to use the remote control

for a long time, remove the batteries.

Programming the remote control for use with

a VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter

This remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs and

DVD players. To control VCRs, DVD players, or cable converters other

than Toshiba models, you must follow the steps below to program your

remote control.

1. While holding down the CODE button, press the button for the

device you want to control (VCR, DVD, or CABLE).

2. Enter the 2-digit code listed on page 13 using the Number buttons

(0-9) within 10 seconds.

3. Point the remote control at the VCR, DVD player, or converter and

press POWER to test the code.

If the VCR, DVD player, or converter turns on, you have entered

the right code.

If the VCR, DVD player, or converter does not respond to the

remote control, you may have entered the wrong code. Repeat

steps 1-2 with another code.

For future reference, write down the codes you used:

VCR code ________________________

DVD player code ___________________

Cable TV converter code _____________

Notes:

•When shipped from the factory, the remote

control is set to operate your TV.

•If you do not enter the code within 10

seconds from step 1 or if you enter a code

not listed below, this operation is canceled.

•Each time you replace the batteries, you

must reprogram the remote control.

•Some newer VCRs are capable of working

on either of two remote codes. These VCRs

have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”

If your VCR has this kind of switch and does

not respond to any of the codes for your

VCR, set the switch to the other position

(VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram the remote

control.
