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.
• 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.
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.

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 color-coded according to use: yellow
for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left
(or mono) audio.
S-video cable
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video
output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete
connection.
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance
than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable,
be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or
the picture performance will be unacceptable.
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 or S-video
cable.
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, 17 and 19).
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a
standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
Dual-wand IR blaster cable
Dual-wand IR blaster cable is for use with video devices with
IR (infrared) remote control. This cable can be used with the
TV’s IR pass-through feature (-page 15).
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 19).
Note: Separate audio cables are required for a complete
connection.
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.

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 pass-
through) to remotely operate (through the TV) many infrared
remote-controlled devices (such as Toshiba infrared remote-
controlled 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 12)
other audio/video cables as required to connect the device(s)
to the TV (- pages 13–16)
To connect the IR blaster cable:
1Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your device.
This sensor is marked on some devices.*
2Align 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.
3Plug 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.
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.
Front of IR-controlled DVD player (for example)
Front of IR-controlled audio device (for example)
Infrared
sensor
IR blaster cable wand
(approx.1 inch from device)
TV upper back panel
*If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:
1Turn OFF the device.
2Starting 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.)
3If the device turns on, the point at which the remote
control touched the device is the location of the sensor.
4If the device does not turn on, move the remote control
slightly to the right and press POWER again.
5Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared
sensor.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting a digital audio system
The TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal outputs a Dolby®*
Digital g or 2-channel down-mixed PCM (pulse-code
modulation) signal for use with an external Dolby® Digital
decoder or other external audio system with optical audio
input.
You will need:
optical audio cable (Use an optical audio cable that has the
larger “TosLink” connector and not the smaller “mini-
optical” connector.)
To control the audio:
1Turn on the TV and the digital audio device.
2Press Y on the TV’s remote control and open the Audio
menu.
3Highlight Audio Setup and press T.
4In the Optical Output Format field, select either
Dolby Digital or PCM, depending on your device
(- “Selecting the optical audio output format” on
page 46).
Note:
Some audio systems may not be compatible with Dolby
Digital bitstream signals. Older audio systems that are not
compatible with standard optical out signals may not work
properly, creating a high noise level that may damage
speakers or headphones. THIS DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED
BY YOUR WARRANTY.
The DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal may not output some
digital audio sources because of copy restrictions.

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 24).
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 22–26).
Installing the remote control
batteries
1Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote
control.
2Install two “AAA” size batteries, making sure to match
the + and – signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery
compartment.
3Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the
tab snaps.
Caution: Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fire or the like.
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.
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.
Squeeze tab
and lift cover.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Programming the remote control
to control your other devices
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate
most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to
operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not
preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details
on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 22.
1In the remote control code table (-page 25), find the
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try
each one separately until you find one that works.
2Set the MODE SELECT switch to the type of device
you are programming the remote control to operate —
CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite
receiver), AUX 1 (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo), or
AUX 2 (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater in a
box]).
3While holding down E, press the Channel Number
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
4To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote
control at it, and press p. See notes below.
If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.
If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using
another code.
If the device does not respond to another code, you will
need to use the remote control that came with the
device.
5Remember to set the MODE SELECT switch back to
“TV” to control the TV.
6For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:
Note:
In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the
TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not
operational, repeat the device code setup using another
code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying
all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your
device, use the device’s original remote control.
Every time you change the batteries, you will need to
reprogram the remote control.
Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These
VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has
this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”
or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

Chapter 5: Setting up your TV
Programming channels into the
TV’s channel memory
When you press < or , on the remote control or TV control
panel, your TV will stop only on the channels you programmed
into the TV’s channel memory.
Follow the steps below to program channels into the TV’s
channel memory.
Programming channels automatically
Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your
area and store them in its memory. After the channels are
programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase
individual channels in the channel memory.
Note:
You must configure the ANT/CABLE input source before
programming channels (-page 29).
If the ANT/CABLE input signal type is set to Cable, the
automatic channel programming process erases channels
that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory.
If the ANT/CABLE input signal type is set to Antenna, the
automatic channel programming process adds newly found
channels to the existing set of programmed channels (and
does NOT erase channels that were previously
programmed into the TV’s memory.) To remove an Antenna
source channel from the memory, you must manually delete
it.
To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel
memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the
remote control.
Programming channels when the ANT/CABLE input is
configured for Cable will take substantially longer than when
the antenna input is configured for Antenna. This is normal;
however, once channel programming is finished, you should
not have to repeat the programming process again unless
your Cable TV service lineup changes significantly.
To program channels automatically:
1Configure the antenna input source, if you have not
already done so (-page 29).
2From the Setup menu, highlight Installation and press
T. A new set of Installation menu icons will appear.
3Open the Terrestrial menu, highlight Channel
Program to bring up the Start, and press T again to
begin channel programming.
The TV will automatically cycle through all the antenna
channels, and store all active channels in the channel
memory. While the TV is cycling through the channels,
the message “Scanning channels, please wait” appears (as
shown above).
4To cancel channel programming, press O on the remote
control (or highlight Cancel in the on-screen display and
press T).
When channel programming is finished, press <or , to
view the programmed channels.
Manually adding and deleting channels
in the channel memory
After automatically programming channels into the channel
memory, you can manually add or delete individual channels.
To add or delete channels in the channel memory:
1From the Setup menu, highlight Installation and press
T. A new set of Installation menu icons will appear.
2Open the Terrestrial menu, highlight Channel Add/
Delete, and then press T.
To add a channel to the channel memory:
Highlight the unchecked box next to the channel number you
want to add, and then press T to check the box.
To manually add digital subchannels on a physical
channel:
Use the Channel Numbers and the Dash (=) on the remote
control to enter the channel number (for example, 56–1).
If the channel is found, the number will be added to the list and
the box will be checked.
If the channel is not found, a message will appear.
To remove a channel from the channel memory:
Highlight the checked box next to the channel number you
want to remove, and then press T to uncheck the box.
To save your new settings:
Highlight Done and press T.
Note: A video preview of the currently highlighted channel is
provided to assist you in adding/deleting channels.

by programming channels, you can remove the unwanted
encrypted (non-viewable) channel while you are channel
surfing. When you tune into an encrypted channel, the
following message will appear.
Press 1 while the message is on the screen to remove the
unnecessary channel from the channel list.
Labeling channels
A list of common channel labels (logos) for various channels
(ABC, CBS, etc.) will be programmed into the TV. You will

HDMI 1 Audio setting changes toAuto.” If PC Audio is set to
Yes,” the HDMI 1 Audio setting is set to “Digital” and is
grayed out in the menu. (Also see item 4 on page 11 and

Adding and clearing channels and inputs in the
History List
Adding channels and inputs to the History List:

“shifted” to the left, eventually moving off the left side. Press
3 C to surf backward through the previously tuned channels/
inputs. Any channel or input that is tuned repeatedly will not
be repeated in the History List, but instead is moved to the end
of the list on the right side of the Channel Browser.
The Channel Browser will store the following channels:
All channels that are tuned using the numeric buttons on the
remote control.
All channels that are tuned using < or , on the remote
control.
Note: Whenever an item is selected that cannot be tuned (for
various reasons), the TV will automatically tune to the
previously viewed channel or input.
Clearing channels from the History List:
Reconfiguring the ANT/CABLE input will clear the
History List.
Note: See page 29 for details on configuring the antenna
input.
Once 32 channels or inputs are stored in the History List, the

channel or input is tuned.
Turning off the TV will clear the History List.
Setting the Channel Tuning Mode
This feature allows you to choose how tuning will be handled
for analog and digital channels when the TV is in Antenna
mode.
Note: To use this feature, the Input Configuration must be set

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
General troubleshooting
Before calling a service technician, please check this chapter
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you can
try.
Black box on-screen
The closed caption feature is set to one of the Text modes (T1,
T2, T3, or T4). Set the closed caption feature to Off
(-page 43).
TV stops responding to controls
If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote
control or TV control panel and you cannot turn off the TV,
press and hold the POWER button on the TV control panel for
5 or more seconds to reset the TV.
Other problems
If your TV’s problem is not addressed in this Troubleshooting
section or the recommended solution has not worked, use the
Restore Factory Defaults procedure (-page 34).
TV will not turn on
Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press p.
The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries or try the control panel buttons.
Picture problems
General picture problems
Check the antenna/cable connections (- Chapter 2).
•Press + on the remote control or TV and select a valid video
input source (-page 35). If no device is connected to a
particular input on the TV, no picture will display when you
select that particular input source. For device connection
details, see Chapter 2.
Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional
outdoor antenna (if applicable).
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
Adjust the picture qualities (-page 42).
If you are using a VCR, make sure L on the remote control
is set correctly (-page 21).
Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-video
cable to the VIDEO 1 input at the same time
(-page 13).
Noisy picture
If you are watching an analog channel (off-air broadcast or
Cable TV), you can set the CableClear®/DNR feature to AUTO
to reduce visible interference in the TV picture (-page 56).
Video Input Selection problems
If the Input Selection window does not appear when you
press + on the remote control or TV, press + a second
time, which will change to the next video input source and
display the Input Selection window.
Cannot view external signals or channel 3 or 4
If you cannot view signals from external devices connected to
VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, ColorStream®, HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI 3,
HDMI 4, PC or from channels 3 or 4, make sure the Input Lock
is set to Off (-page 49).
Poor color or no color
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
Adjust the Tint and/or Color (-page 42).
Poor composite or S-video picture
If the TV is connected to an external A/V device (e.g., DVD
player, video game system, set-top box, etc.) try using a
ColorStream or HDMI video connection instead.
If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the
standard (composite) video cable. Do not connect both types
of video cable at the same time.
Picture and sound are out of sync
As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare
instances, when viewing certain content (e.g.. television
broadcasts, video games, DVDs), you may notice that the
sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This phenomenon
can be caused by various factors including, without limitation,
video processing within the TV, video processing in an
attached gaming system, and video processing or different
compression rates used by broadcasters in their
programming. You may want to try one or more of the
following suggestions, which may help to reduce the effect of
this phenomenon:
If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a
programmable audio delay feature, use this feature to help
synchronize the sound to the picture.
If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV channels,
please contact your local broadcast, cable, or satellite
provider to inform them of this issue.
LED indications while in reboot from standby
When you plug the power cord in, the yellow LED will blink
until the TV enters standby mode, (plugged in but not
powered on). This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction.
Sound problems
Check the antenna/cable connections (- Chapter 2).
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.
If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to
Stereo mode (-page 45).
If you are not receiving a second audio program from a known
SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set to SAP mode
(-page 45).
If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program you
are watching (such as music or a foreign language), the SAP
mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo mode
(-page 45).

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
Remote control problems
Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode (-page 21).
Remove all obstructions between the remote control and the
TV.
The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries (-page 20).
Your TV remote control may not operate certain features on
your external device. Refer to the owner’s manual for your
other device to determine its available features. If your TV
remote control does not operate a specific feature on another
device, use the remote control that came with the device
(-pages 22–26).
If the TV still does not act as expected, use the Reset Factory
Defaults procedure (-page 34).
Channel tuning problems
Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode (-page 21).
The channel may have been erased from the channel memory
by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add the channel to the
channel memory (-page 30).
The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block feature.
Unblock the channel (-page 48).
If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the antenna
configuration (-page 29). If you are still unable to tune
digital channels, clear all channels from the channel list
(-page 31) and reprogram channels into the channel
memory (-page 30). If you are still unable to tune digital
channels, use the Reset Factory Defaults procedure
(-page 34). Also see “TV stops responding to controls”
and “Other problems” (-page 59).
Closed caption problems
If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned,
no captions will display (-page 43).
If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear. If this
happens, turn off the closed caption feature (-page 43).
A closed-caption signal may not display correctly in the
following situations: a) when a videotape has been dubbed; b)
when the signal reception is weak; or c) when the signal
reception is nonstandard (-page 43).
Rating blocking (V-Chip) problems
If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code entering
screen is displayed, press E four times within 5 seconds.
The PIN code you previously stored will be cleared
(-page 46).
The V-Chip feature is available for the U.S. V-Chip system only
(-page 47).
No REGZA-LINK operation
The REGZA-LINK feature is available for Toshiba REGZA-LINK
compatible devices.
Make sure the HDMI cables with the HDMI Logo ( )
are used.
When the connected REGZA-LINK device does not work
correctly after you have changed settings of the device, turn
off your TV and unplug the power cord, then plug and turn on
again.
If several devices are connected, REGZA-LINK feature may
not operate properly.
Read the instruction manual furnished with the connected
REGZA-LINK device.
HDMI problems
For HDMI cables
Make sure the HDMI cables with the HDMI Logo ()
are used (- page 16).
For Deep Color
You should need to use Category 2 cable to work properly.
Normal HDMI cable or DVI cable may not work with this
option (- page 53).
For Legacy HDMI source
Some of legacy HDMI sources may not work properly with
latest HDMI TV products, due to new standard adoption.
Please try to set Off the HDMI settings(Lip-Sync Latency,
Deep Color). Your legacy HDMI source should operate
properly with this TV products (- page 53).

CONDITIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED
AND EXCLUDED. IF THE APPLICABLE LAW, STATUTORY OR
OTHERWISE, PRECLUDES THE EXCLUSION OF ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS THEN SUCH
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS ARE
OTHERWISE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE TERM OF THIS
EXPRESS WRITTEN LIMITED WARRANTY. TO THE EXTENT NOT
PRECLUDED BY LAW, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, THIS WRITTEN
WARRANTY SUPERCEDES AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
OTHER WARRANTY, CONDITION OR REPRESENTATION NOT
STATED IN THIS WARRANTY, WHETHER MADE BY TCL, TOSHIBA

YOU MUST READ AND FOLLOW ALL SET-UP AND USAGE
INSTRUCTIONS IN THE APPLICABLE USER GUIDES AND/OR
MANUALS. IF YOU FAIL TO DO SO, THIS TELEVISION MAY NOT
FUNCTION PROPERLY AND YOU MAY SUFFER DAMAGE. THIS
WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER ANY SERVICE THAT IS REQUIRED, IN
PART OR IN WHOLE, AS A RESULT OF ANY FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE
SET-UP AND USAGE INSTRUCTIONS. THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT
APPLY AND SHALL BE VOID AND UNENFORCEABLE IF THE
TELEVISION IS OPENED, SERVICED, OR REPAIRED BY PERSONS
OTHER THAN THOSE AUTHORIZED BY TCL TO SERVICE OR REPAIR
THE TELEVISION.

SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY SHALL BE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT

”) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY
DAMAGES, MONEY, REIMBURSEMENT, COSTS OR EXPENSES. THIS

DAMAGES, WHETHER FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF
CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), UNDER A STATUTE OR
UNDER ANY OTHER LAW OR FORM OR ACTION, OR WHETHER
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE TELEVISION,
EVEN IF ANY OF THE RELATED PARTIES HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR OF ANY CLAIM BY ANY OTHER
PARTY.
No person, agent, distributor, dealer or company is authorized to change,
modify or extend the terms of these warranties in any manner whatsoever.
Arbitration and Dispute Resolution
To the extent not precluded by law, any claim, dispute, controversy or
disagreement (whether for breach of warranty, breach of contract, tort
(including negligence), under a statute or under any other law or form of
action) against any of the Related Parties arising out of, or otherwise
relating to: (i) this warranty; (ii) the Television; (iii) any oral or written
representations, statements, brochures, press releases, advertising,
announcement, point of sale display, or promotional material relating to
the Television; (iv) the relationships that result from this warranty, (the
foregoing claims, disputes controversies and disagreements are
collectively referred to as the “Dispute”), shall be referred to and resolved
by final and binding arbitration (to the exclusion of the courts). To the
extent not precluded by law, you agree to waive any right that you may
have to commence or participate in any representative or class
proceeding against the Related Parties relating to any Dispute. If and
where applicable and to the extent not precluded by law, you further
agree to opt out of any such representative or class proceedings.
Arbitration of any Dispute will be conducted in the forum and in the
manner as agreed to between you and TCL. Failing such agreement, the
arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator pursuant to the laws and
rules relating to arbitration generally in force in the jurisdiction in which you
reside at the time that the Dispute arises. To the extent not precluded by

APPLICATION, THE CUSTOMER - AND NOT TCL, ITS AFFILIATES, ADRs
OR ASPs - ASSUME SOLE AND FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR SUCH USE.

USED IN A CRITICAL APPLICATION. TCL, ITS AFFILIATES, ADRs AND
ASPs HEREBY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, DAMAGES AND
CONSEQUENCES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICE OR REFUSAL TO
SERVICE SUCH TELEVISION AND FURTHER DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL
LIABILITY, CONSEQUENCES AND DAMAGES THAT MAY ARISE OR
RESULT FROM THE USE OF THE TELEVISION IN ANY CRITICAL

enforceable. If and to the extent that any provision of this limited warranty
as it relates to any of the Related Parties is found to be invalid or
unenforceable in respect of that party (the “
Excluded Party
”), the
Excluded Party shall be deemed to be severed or excluded from the
provision, and the provision shall remain valid, enforceable and
applicable in respect of the other or remaining Related Parties.
To the extent permitted by law, this limited warranty shall be governed and
construed in accordance with the laws of Ontario.
If there is any inconsistency between this limited warranty, on the one
hand, and any statement in the packaging of the Television or in any other
document enclosed with, or used in the context of the promotion or sale
of, the Television, on the other hand, the provisions of this limited warranty
shall prevail.
