Important Safeguards Welcome to Toshiba Connecting your TV Connecting an HDMI™ or DVI device The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input on your TV 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) program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B-compliant[1] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output). The HDMI input is designed for best performance with high definition video signals. It will accept and display 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i signals. NEVER CONNECT THIS TV TO A PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC). This TV is not intended for use with a PC. To connect an HDMI device, you will need: • one HDMI cable (type A connector) For proper operation, it is recommended that you use as short an HDMI cable as possible. You should not encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that is shorter than 16.4 ft (5m). HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below). You must set the HDMI audio input setting to "HDMI" in the AUDIO menu (see page 38). Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input setting to "DVI" to hear the analog audio (see page 38). Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio cables and play media with digital audio output, to hear digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting to "HDMI" (page 38). [1] EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with highbandwidth 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. To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset properly, it is recommended that you follow these procedures: • When turning on your electronic components, turn on the TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device. • When turning off your electronic components, turn off the HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV. 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-DVI adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m).

Connecting an HDMI™ or DVI device
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
•
one HDMI cable (type A connector)
For proper operation, it is recommended that you use
as short an HDMI cable as possible. You should not
encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that is
shorter than 16.4 ft (5m).
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration
below).
You must set the HDMI audio input setting to
“HDMI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 38).
Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio
signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting
analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for
this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input
setting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 38).
Note:
If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio
cables and play media with digital audio output, to hear
digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting
to “HDMI” (page 38).

EIA/CEA-861/861B 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.
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-DVI
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The
recommended 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 (see
illustration below).
You must set the HDMI audio input setting to
“DVI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 38).
To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset
