Toshiba 52HMX95 Owner's Manual - English - Page 5

FCC Declaration of Conformity Compliance Statement (Part 15): The Toshiba 52HMX95 and 62HMX95 DLP™ projection TVs comply with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation. The party responsible for compliance to these rules is: Toshiba America Consumer Products, L.L.C. 82 Totowa Rd. Wayne, NJ 07470. Ph: (973) 628-8000 Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by removing and applying power to the equipment, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by Toshiba could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. Important notes about your DLPTM projection TV 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. See "Lamp unit replacement and care" on pages 129-131. 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 in approximately 1 minute. You will notice a change in screen brightness when this happens. This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction. (See page 80 for details.) 3) Every time the TV is powered on, it may take several minutes for the picture to obtain full brightness. 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™ (Digital Light Processing™) technology and is not a sign of malfunction. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance (see item 5, below). 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 29 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. 7) The 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 powered off. This is a normal function of the Quick Restart™ feature and is not a sign of TV malfunction. You can set the Quick Restart™ feature to stop the fans as soon as the TV is powered off. See "Setting the Quick Restart™ feature" on page 56. 8) The green and red LED lights on the TV's front control touchpad indicate the TV's current status. If either light flashes, see "LED indications" on page 125 for details. 9) Every time the TV power cord is plugged in, either the message "Now Booting . . ." will display on-screen until the picture appears, or the green 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. 10) When connecting an external A/V device, if you connect the device's video output to the TV and the device's audio output to a separate audio system, the picture and sound may not synchronize completely. 11) When playing a video game on the TV, there may be a slight delay between your command (e.g., joystick, keyboard) and the picture movement on the screen. IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT "HOT LAMP RESTART" 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 on-screen in the following situations: • when the Quick Restart™ feature is set to OFF and you turn the TV off and then on again within a few minutes; or • if the 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. If this occurs, the green LED on the TV front panel will blink (and the red 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. Copyright © 2005 TOSHIBA CORPORATION. All rights reserved. 5
