Child SafetyIt Makes A DifferenceWhere Your TV StandsCongratulations on your purchase! As you enjoyyour 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, theyare not always supported on the proper TV stands.

� Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriatelysituated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audiospeakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!� The consumer electronics industry

is committed to making homeentertainment enjoyable and safe.� The Consumer ElectronicsAssociation formed the HomeEntertainment Support SafetyCommittee, comprised of TV andconsumer electronics furnituremanufacturers, to advocatechildren’s safety and educate

consumers and their families abouttelevision safety.

Tune Into Safety� One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate

furniture large enough to support the weight of yourTV (and other electronic components).

� Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secureyour furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directlyinto the TV).

� Carefully read and understand the other enclosedinstructions for proper use of this product.

� Do not allow children to climb on or play with furnitureand 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 watchinga program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

� Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of thehome with your family and friends. Thank you!

Connecting your TVIf you haven’t connected electronic equipment before, or you havebeen frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cablesare not supplied.)

• A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from yourantenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

• Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color codedaccording to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. Thered audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audiocable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rearpanel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded inthe same manner as the cables.

• S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video cablescan only be used with S-video compatible components.

• Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the bestpicture performance. Component video cables can only be usedwith component video compatible components.

• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is for use with videoequipment that has an HDMI type A connector (see page 14).

Connecting a cable converter boxThis television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cablechannels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Somecable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal isscrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires theuse of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cablecompany.

For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV ServiceFor basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box,connect the incoming 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the AntennaJack on the back of the television.

For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV ServiceIf 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 AntennaJack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shownbelow. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descramblerbox (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box toselect channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable withScrambled Premium ChannelsIf you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels areunscrambled 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 cableinstaller or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shownbelow. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune anynonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position,tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usuallychannel 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 cannotprogram using the remote control, such aslabeling channels, blocking channels, andprogramming your favorite channels.

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:• one HDMI cable (type A connector)

For proper operation, it is recommended that you usea short HDMI cable. You should not encounterdifficulty if you use an HDMI cable which is shorterthan 16.4ft (5m).

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separateanalog audio cables are not required (see illustrationbelow).

You must set the HDMI setting to HDMI in theAUDIO menu (see page 41).

Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audiosignals. In that case, you may hear sound by connectinganalog audio cables. If you connect analog audio cableswith this connection (see “To connect a DVI device, youwill need” in right column).

[1] HDMI = High-Definition Multimedia Interface.[2] DVI = Digital Video Interface.[3] HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.[4] EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the

transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, which is beingstandardized for reception of high-definition videosignals.Because this is an evolving technology, it is possiblethat some devices may not operate properly with theTV.

To connect a DVI device, you will need:• one HDMI–to–DVI adapter cable

(HDMI type A connector)

For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVIadapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). Therecommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).

• one pair of standard analog audio cables

An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers only video.Separate analog audio cables are required (seeillustration below).

You must set the HDMI setting to DVI in the AUDIOmenu (see page 41).

The HDMI[1] input on your TV receives digital audio anduncompressed digital video from an HDMI device oruncompressed video from a DVI[2] device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP[3] program materialin digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B– compliant[4]

consumer electronic devices (such as a settop box or DVDplayer with HDMI or DVI output.

The HDMI input is designed for best performance with1080i high-definition video signals, but will also accept anddisplay 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.

Note: This TV is not intended for connection to andshould not be used with a personal computer.
