AsyouenjoyyournewTV, keepthesesafetytips in mind:
The Issue
E3 If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home.
Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
EJ 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.
O 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!
O The consumer electronics industry
is committed to making home
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
EJ 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.
rune Into Safety
EJ One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large
enough to support the weight of your TV (and other electronic
components).
E3 Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your
furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).
EJ Carefully read and understand the other enclosed
instructions for proper use of this product.
E3 Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.
E3 Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote
control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.
EJ Remember that children can become excited while watching
a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.
EJ Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home
with your family and friends. Thank you!

29) DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH!
• Use extreme care to make sure you are never in a
position where your body (or any item you are in contact
with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally
touch overhead power lines. Never locate the antenna

antenna or phone system.
Care
For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
30)
31)
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.
Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or
aerosol cleaners. Clean only with a soft, dry cloth. Do not
spray volatile compounds, such as insecticide, on the
cabinet. This may discolor or damage the cabinet.
32) WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV
cabinet slots.
33)
34)
35)
Ifthe 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.
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.
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.

• The lamp unit in this product has a limited service life.
The length of service life varies depending on product
use or user settings. If you use the lamp beyond its
service life:
• you may notice a reduction in the colors and/or
brightness of the picture, at which time you should
replace the lamp unit; and
• the strength of the quartz glass in the lamp will be
reduced and the lamp may rupture. Ifthe lamp ruptures,
the TV will not operate until the lamp unit is replaced.
See "Lamp unit replacement and care" in Chapter 9.
• Dispose of the used lamp unit by the approved method
for your area.
• The lamp unit contains mercury. Disposal of
mercury may be regulated due to
environmental considerations. For disposal or

1) The light source for this TV is a projection lamp unit with a
limited service life. When the lamp wears out, the picture
may become dark or black or the lamp may fail, at which time
you must replace the lamp unit (g¢ "Lamp unit replacement
and care" on pages 63-65).
2) When the lamp mode is set to Low Power, every time the
TV is powered on, the lamp will initially be in High Bright
mode but will switch to Low Power mode after a short
period of time. You may notice a change in screen brightness
when this happens. This is normal and is not a sign of
malfunction (re page 57 for details).
3) Every time the TV is powered on, it may take several minutes
for the picture to obtain full brightness (g¢ "IMPORTANT
NOTICE ABOUT HOT LAMP RESTART," at right).
4) The TV's display is manufactured using an extremely high
level of precision technology; however, an occasional pixel
(dot of light) may show constantly on the screen. This is a
structural property of DLP _2(Digital Light Processing ¢2)
technology and is not a sign of malfunction. Such pixels are
not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing
distance.
5) Always sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV and
as directly in front of it as possible. The picture quality may
be affected by your viewing position and length of viewing
time. If you sit too closely to the TV for too long, you may
suffer from eye fatigue. See item 30 under "Care" on page 4.
6) Depending on the media you are viewing, it is possible,
although unlikely, that a limited number of viewers may see
a"rainbow effect" on the screen, which can, in rare instances,
result in eye fatigue. This is a rare occurrence related to
DLP _")technology and is not a sign of TV malfunction.
This TV contains several cooling fans to moderate
the internal temperature. You may be able to hear
the fans for several minutes after the TV is turned
off. This is a function of the Power-On Mode
feature and is not a sign of TV malfunction. You can set
the Power-On Mode feature to stop the fans as soon as the
TV is powered off. See "Setting the Power-On Mode
feature" (g_ page 35).
8) The yellow and blue LED lights at the bottom center of the
TV front indicate your TV's current status. If either light
flashes, see "LED indications" (g_ page 62).
9) Every time the TV power cord is plugged 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.
"Voice announce" feature
When certain non-standard conditions occur, the LEDs
on the TV will blink and the TV will play a recorded
"voice announcement" describing the condition (see the
LED indication table on page 62 for the specific conditions
that include a voice announcement).
To repeat the voice announcement and hear additional
information, press the MENU button on the TV while the
LEDs are blinking.
IMPORTANTNOTICEABOUTHOTLAMPRESTART
When the TV has been powered on long enough for the lamp
unit to get hot, it may take several minutes for the picture to
appear in the following situations:
•When the Power-On Mode feature is set to Power-
Saving and you turn the TV off and then on again
within a few minutes; or
• Ifthe TV is on when a short-term power failure, power
surge, or other similar power failure occurs, such that
the TV loses and regains power within a few minutes,
This is a property of DLP® TV lamp technology and is
NOT a sign of malfunction.
Ifthis occurs, the yellow LED on the TV front panel will blink
(and the blue LED will be lit solid) until the TV is finished
restarting the lamp and the normal picture appears. If both
LEDs are blinking, you will need to turn the TV off and then
on again to restart the lamp.
