Safety Precautions for 3D glasses
Caution
About the 3D glasses
*Do not repair, modify, or disassemble the 3D glasses
by yourself.
Doing so may cause you to become indisposed while
watching 3D images.
.Do not use the 3D glasses if they are cracked, broken,
or not working properly.
Continuing to use them in such a state may cause injury,
eye strain, or indisposition.
•Do not stand or walk while wearing 3D glasses.
You may lose your balance which could result in falls or
other accidents.
•Do not wear the 3D glasses for any purpose other
than viewing 3D programming.
3D glasses do not function as sunglasses.
•Do not drop, exert pressure on, or step on the 3D
glasses.
Doing so may damage the glass section, which may
result in injury.
Exposing the 3D glasses to liquid or excessive heat may
damage the function.
•If your nose or temple turns red, or you feel any pain
or discomfort, stop using the 3D glasses.
Such symptoms may occur when wearing 3D glasses for
long periods of time.
Cautions on watching the 3D images
•Some viewers may experience a seizure or blackout
when exposed to certain flashing images or lights
contained in certain 3D television pictures or video
games.
Anyone who has had a seizure, loss of awareness, or
other symptom linked to an epileptic condition, or has a
family history of epilepsy, should contact a health care
professional before using the 3D function.
•Avoid using the 3D function when under the influence
of alcohol,
•If you are ill or feel ill, you should refrain from viewing
3D images, and consult your health care provider as
may be appropriate,
•If you experience any of the following symptoms
when viewing 3D video images, stop viewing and
contact your health care provider:
Convulsions, Eye or muscle twitching, Loss of
awareness, Altered vision, Involuntary movements,
Disorientation, Eye Strain, Nausea/Vomiting, Dizziness,
Headaches.
•If you feel eye fatigue or other discomfort from
viewing 3D video images, remove the 3D glasses and
discontinue use until the condition improves.
•Viewing in 3D may cause dizziness and/or
disorientation for some viewers.
Therefore, to avoid injury do not place your TV near open
stairwells, balconies, or wires.
Also do not sit near objects that could be broken if
accidentally hit.
•When viewing 3D images, always wear 3D glasses.
Watching 3D images without specified 3D glasses may
cause eye strain.
•Do not wear 3D glasses or watch 3D images from
steep angles or while lying down.
The 3D effect is lost in these conditions and eye strain
may result.
•It is recommended that the viewer's eyes and 3D
glasses are level with the screen.
•If you have prescription eye glasses or contact
lenses, wear the 3D glasses over them.
Watching 3D images without appropriate eyewear may
cause eye strain.
•If 3D images often appear doubled or if you cannot
see the images in 3D, stop viewing.
Continuous viewing may cause eye strain.
•Due to the possible impact on vision development,
viewers of 3D video images should be age 6 or above.
Children and teenagers may be more susceptible to
health issues associated with viewing in 3D and should
be closely supervised to avoid prolonged viewing without
rest.

*For optimal 3D effect and to avoid eye fatigue it is
important that you properly select your viewing
position,
The best viewing position is at the indicated viewing
distance with your eyes at the same level as the center of
the display as shown below. The center of the optimum
viewing area varies from set to set. The usable viewing
area is generally over the range shown in the table below
(actual angle not depicted in drawing).
Same height as
Center of Display
Viewing Distance
32TL515U Approx. 16 deg. Over 47 inches
42TL515U Approx. 26 deg. Over 62 inches
47TL515U Approx. 26 deg. Over 69 inches
55TL515U Approx. 26 deg. Over 81 inches
IMPORTANT: If you see a double image, your eyes are
either too high or too low in relation to the horizontal center
of the screen. Adjust your position so that it is closer to the
center to avoid eye fatigue and to enjoy optimum 3D
effects.

The following symptoms are technical limitations of
LCD Display technology and are not an indication of
malfunction; therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for
perceived issues resulting from these symptoms.
1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a
fixed, non-moving image is displayed for a long period
of time. The afterimage is not permanent and will
disappear in a short period of time.
2) The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured
using an extremely high level of precision technology;
however, there may be an occasional pixel (dot of light)
that does not operate properly (does not light, remains
constantly lit, etc.). This is a structural property of LCD
technology, is not a sign of malfunction, and is not
covered under your warranty. Such pixels are not
visible when the picture is viewed from a normal
viewing distance.
Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a
"gun" type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work

Ana,ooaudiocable
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device, or
uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual
Interface) device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-
Bandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program
material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861-D
compliant[l] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-
top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).
Supported signal formats: VGA, SVGA, XGA, WXGA,
SXGA, 480i (60Hz), 480p (60Hz), 720p (60Hz), 1080i
(60Hz), and 1080p (24Hz/60Hz). For signal
specifications, see p. 84.
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate
32/44.1/48 kHz.
Note:
•For connecting a PC to the HDMI input, see p. 22.
• Some legacy HDMI sources may not work properly with
your HDMI TV due to the adoption of new standards. Try
disabling the options in HDMI Settings (_,_ p. 48).
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
•One HDMI cable per HDMI device
-Recommendation: Forproper operation, use an
HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo (I,_i_lln| ).
-To display an 1080p/60 Hz signal format, you need a
High Speed HDMI cable. A conventional HDMI/DVI
cable may not work properly.
-HDMI cables transfer video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required.
To view the HDMI device video:
Press _ and • or • to select HDMI 1, HDMI 2, HDMI
3, o1"HDMI 4.
Note: For programming the TV remote control to operate
other devices, see p. 88.
To connect a DVI device, you will need:
° HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable
-Forproper operation, the length of the HDMI-to-DVI
adapter cable must not exceed 9.8 ft (3 m).
Recomended length: 6.6 ft (2 m).
• 3.5 mm Stereo to RCA Y-Cable
-An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only.
Separate analog audio cables are required.
Note: To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset
properly:
• When turning on electronic components, turn on the 73/
first and then the HDMI or DVI device.
• When turning off electronic components, turn off the
HDMI or DVI device first and then the TV.
[1] EIA/CEA-861-D compliance covers the transmission of
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, which is being standardized for
reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is
an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices
may not operate properly with the TV.

Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your
device. This sensor is marked on some devices.*
Align 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.
Note: If you do not have a second device, coil the
second wand with a rubber band and leave it behind
the TV.
Plug the IR blaster cable's plug into the TV's IR OUT
terminal.

Note:
•To program the remote control to operate the device(s),
see "Programming the remote to operate other devices"
(_ p, 88),
• The IR pass-through feature does not support all IR-
controlled devices. Satisfactory quality may not be
attainable with certain devices.
*If you cannot locate the device's infrared sensor:
1Turn off the device.
2Starting at the device's lower-left corner, place
the end of the device's remote control (with the
infrared emitter) so it touches the front of the
device. Press POWER. (Do not use the TV's
remote control for this step.)
3If the device turns on, the sensor is located where
the remote control touched the device.
4If the device does not turn on, move the remote
control slightly to the right and press POWER
again.
5Repeat the previous steps if necessary.
