Safety Precautions
This equipment has been designed and
manufactured to meet international safety
standards but, like any electrical equipment,
care must be taken to obtain the best results
and for safety to be assured. Please read the
points below for your own safety. They are of a
general nature, intended to help with all electronic
consumer products and some points may not
apply to the goods you have just purchased.
Air Circulation
Leave more than 10cm clearance around the
television to allow adequate ventilation. This will
prevent overheating and possible damage to the
television. Dusty places should also be avoided.
Heat Damage
Damage may occur if the television is left in direct
sunlight or near a heater. Avoid places subject to
extremely high temperatures or humidity. Place
in a location where the temperature remains
between 5°C (41°F) min. and 35°C (94°F) max.
Mains Supply
The mains supply required for this equipment
is 220-240V ˜, 50/60Hz. Never connect to a DC
supply or any other power source. DO ensure
that the television is not standing on the mains
lead. Use only the supplied lead.
DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this
equipment, this incorporates a special Radio
Interference Filter, the removal of which will impair
its performance. In the UK, the fuse tted in this
plug is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.
It should only be replaced by a correctly rated
and approved type and the fuse cover must be
retted.
IF IN DOUBT PLEASE CONSULT A
COMPETENT ELECTRICIAN.
Do
DO read the operating instructions before you
attempt to use the equipment.
DO ensure that all electrical connections
(including the mains plug, extension leads and
inter-connections between pieces of equipment)
are properly made and in accordance with the
manufacturers’ instructions. Switch off and
withdraw the mains plug before making or
changing connections.
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt
about the installation, operation or safety of your
equipment.
DO be careful with glass panels on equipment.
Do not
DO NOT obstruct the ventilation openings of
the equipment with items such as newspapers,
tablecloths, curtains, etc. Overheating will cause
damage and shorten the life of the equipment.
DO NOT allow electrical equipment to be
exposed to dripping or splashing or objects lled
with liquids, such as vases, to be placed on the
equipment.
DO NOT place hot objects or naked ame
sources, such as lighted candles or nightlights
on, or close to equipment. High temperatures can
melt plastic and lead to res.
DO NOT use makeshift stands and NEVER
x legs with wood screws. To ensure complete
safety, always t the manufacturers’ approved
stand, bracket or legs with the xings provided
according to the instructions.
DO NOT leave equipment switched on when it
is unattended, unless it is specically stated that
it is designed for unattended operation or has
a standby mode. Switch off by withdrawing the
plug, make sure your family know how to do this.
Special arrangements may need to be made for
people with disabilities.
DO NOT continue to operate the equipment if you
are in any doubt about it working normally, or it
is damaged in any way – switch off, withdraw the
mains plug and consult your dealer.
WARNING – excessive sound pressure from
earphones or headphones can cause hearing
loss.
ABOVE ALL – NEVER let anyone, especially
children, push or hit the screen, push anything
into holes, slots or any other openings in the
case.
NEVER guess or take chances with electrical
equipment of any kind – it is better to be safe
than sorry.
DO NOT REMOVE ANY FIXED COVERS AS
THIS WILL EXPOSE DANGEROUS AND 'LIVE'
PARTS.
THE MAINS PLUG IS USED AS A
DISCONNECTING DEVICE AND THEREFORE
SHOULD BE READILY OPERABLE.

Installation and important information
Where to install
Locate the television away from direct sunlight and
strong lights, soft, indirect lighting is recommended
for comfortable viewing. Use curtains or blinds to
prevent direct sunlight falling on the screen.
Place the TV set on a stable, level surface that can
support the weight of the TV.
For model 26/32/42SL738G: As an additional safety
measure you can secure the TV to the level surface
or a wall, as shown in the illustration, using a sturdy
strap.
The LCD display panels are manufactured using an
extremely high level of precision technology, however
sometimes some parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots. This is
not a sign of a malfunction.
Make sure the television is located in a position where it cannot be pushed or hit by objects, as pressure
will break or damage the screen, and that small items cannot be inserted into slots or openings in the
case.
Wall mounting of the TV should only be performed by qualied servicing personnel. Use only with the
wall mount bracket specied by the manufacturer.

Furthermore, under no circumstances shall Toshiba be liable for any consequential loss and/or
damage including but not limited to the following, loss of prot, interruption of business, the loss of
recorded data whether caused during normal operation or misuse of the product.
The digital reception function of this television is only effective in the countries listed in the "Country"
section of the "SETUP" menu. Depending on country/area, some of this television's functions may not be
available. Reception of future additional or modied services can not be guaranteed with this television.
If stationary images generated by 4:3 broadcasts, text services, channel identication logos, computer
displays, video games, on-screen menus, etc. are left on the television screen for any length of time they
could become conspicuous, it is always advisable to reduce both the brightness and contrast settings.
Very long, continuous use of the 4:3 picture on a 16:9 screen may result in some retention of the image at
the 4:3 outlines, this is not a defect of the LCD TV and is not covered under the manufacturers warranty.
Regular use of other size modes (eg: Superlive) and varying theside panel” brightness (if available on
the model) will prevent permanent retention.

Inserting batteries and
effective range of the remote
Remove the back
cover to reveal the
battery compartment
and make sure the
batteries are inserted
the right way round.
Suitable battery types
for this remote are
AAA, IEC R03 1.5V.
Do not combine a used, old battery with a new
one or mix battery types. Remove dead batteries
immediately to prevent acid from leaking into
the battery compartment. Dispose of them in
accordance with instructions on page 60 of this
manual. Warning: batteries must not be exposed
to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the
like.
The performance of the remote control will
deteriorate beyond a distance of ten meters or
outside an angle of 30 degrees from the center
of the television. If the operating range becomes
reduced the batteries may need replacing.

Connecting an HDMI or DVI device to the HDMI input
The HDMI input on your television receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI
source device, or uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) source device. This
input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital- Content Protection) programme material in
digital form from EIA/CEA-861-D–compliant [1] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or
DVD player with HDMI or DVI output). For acceptable video signal formats, see page 17.
NOTE:
• Some early HDMI equipment may not work properly with your latest HDMI TV, due to the adoption
of a new standard.
• Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/44.1/48kHz.
To connect an HDMI device
Connect an HDMI cable (type A connector) to the HDMI terminal.
For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo ( ).
• HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analogue audio cables are not required (see
illustration).
