Precautions

Notes on handling

• Never disconnect the power cord from a wall outlet while the player is turned on, unless it is in an emergency. Doing so may cause malfunction.
• When shipping the player, the original shipping carton and packing materials come in handy. For maximum protection, repack the unit as it was originally packed at the factory.
• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect spray, near the player. Do not leave rubber or plastic products in contact with the player for a long time. They will leave marks on the fi nish.
• The top and rear panels of the player may become warm after a long period of use. This is not a malfunction.

When not in use

• For usual absence
  Be sure to remove the disc from the player and turn off the power.
• Prolonged absence
  Unplug the player from a wall outlet.

Notes on locating

• Place the player on a level surface. Do not use it on a shaky or unstable surface such as a wobbly table or inclined stand. The loaded disc may dislodge from its proper position and cause damage to the player.
  Before placing the player, make sure that the surface can stand the weight of the player. Never place the player in a high location to avoid damage to the product or person by an accidental fall of the player.
• When you place this player near a TV, radio, or VCR, the playback picture may become poor and the sound may be distorted depending on the condition and location of said equipment. In such an event, place the player as far away much as possible from the TV, radio, or VCR.
• To avoid damage to this product, never place or store the unit in direct sunlight; hot, humid areas; or areas subject to excessive dust, oily smoke, cigarette smoke or vibration.

Notes on cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.

- Do not use any type of solvent, such as thinner or benzine, as they may damage the surface of the player.

About the volume level

The volume level of some commercial DVD discs may seem lower than that of audio CDs, other software, etc. If you turn up the volume of the TV or amplifier to play such discs, be sure to turn it back down after playback fi nishes.

Playback restrictions

This owner's manual explains the basic instructions for this player. Some HD DVD discs or DVD video discs are produced in a manner that allows specific or limited operation during playback. As such, the player may not respond to all operating commands. This is not a defect in the player. Please refer to the notes on compatible discs later in this Introduction and to the discussion of DVD playback and features later in this manual.

" may appear on the TV screen during operation.
"means that the operation is not permitted by the player or the disc.

About software

Because of problems and errors that can occur during the creation of HD DVD, DVD and CD software and/or the manufacture of HD DVD, DVD and CD discs, Toshiba cannot assure that this player will successfully play every disc bearing the HD DVD, DVD and CD logos. If you happen to experience any difficulty playing an HD DVD, DVD and CD disc on this player, please contact Toshiba Customer Service.

Some differences

The HD DVD player operates more like a computer and differently than a standard DVD player. In addition to containing a microprocessor, it contains an operating system, random access memory (RAM), and an HD DVD drive. The operating system includes software that is transferred to the RAM when the machine is turned on and at other times during operation. This transfer can take time. Therefore, when you turn the HD DVD player on, it may take a little while before it is ready to use. Likewise, other functions may not be performed as quickly as they would on other AV equipment. Please take these factors into consideration as you use the HD DVD player.

Notes on moisture condensation

■ Moisture condensation damages the unit. Please read the following carefully.

Moisture condensation occurs, for example, when you pour a cold drink into a glass on a warm day. Drops of water form on the outside of the glass. In the same way, moisture may condense on the optical pick-up lens inside this unit, one of the most crucial internal parts of the unit.

■ Moisture condensation occurs during the following cases.

• When you bring the unit directly from a cold place to a warm place.
• When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the unit.
• In summer, when you use the unit in a hot and humid place just after you move the unit from an air conditioned room.
• When you use the unit in a humid place.

■ Do not use the unit when moisture condensation may occur.

If you use the unit in such a situation, it may damage discs and internal parts. Connect the power cord of the unit to the wall outlet, turn on the unit, remove the disc, and leave it for two or three hours. After two or three hours, the unit will have warmed up and evaporated any moisture. Keep the unit connected to the wall outlet and moisture condensation will seldom occur.

• Connect the player directly to your TV. If you connect the player to a VCR, TV/VCR combination, video selector or AV amplifier, the playback picture may be distorted due to copy protection.

Connecting to a device with an HDMI input

HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. HDMI transfers digital audio and uncompressed digital video on a single cable. As a result, audio cables and video cables don't need to be connected separately to a device. The HDMI OUTPUT jack is designed to HDMI Version 1.1.

To view 480p, 720p, 1080 ipictures, use the HDMI OUTPUT jack or the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks to connect to a TV (→ page 22, “Connecting to a TV with component video inputs”). Some discs may require use of the HDMI OUTPUT for viewing of high resolution material. See note regarding copy protection.

Note on copy protection and high definition viewing

HD DVD and DVD video disc creators have the option to include copy protection instructions in their discs that prohibit the output of some standard video or high definition video (original 720p or 1080i or up-converted 480i or 480p) from the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks. If such instructions are present in the disc you are playing, you must use the HDMI OUTPUT jack to view the disc in a high definition format and the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks, if activated, will output video only in 480i or 480p resolution.

Switching output signals (Switching to HDMI output and setting the resolution)

Turn on the player (page 28) before you configure the following setting.

Press V.OUTPUT (remote control).

When the HDMI indicator illuminates, signals are being input from the HDMI OUTPUT jack. When HDMI output is selected, video cannot be displayed from the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks, S-VIDEO jack, and VIDEO jack (yellow).

RESOLUTION

Press repeatedly (remote control).

Set the resolution to output from the player in accordance with the scanning method of the connected TV.

Pressing the button switches between 480p, 720p and 1080i. The setting is indicated on the player display window.

Notes

• Refer to the owner's manual for the TV to be connected to this player for more information concerning HDMI connections.
- When the HDMI connection is not verified, the error message appears on the front panel display. In this case, disconnect the HDMI cable then connect it again, or turn off the connected HDMI device then turn it on.
• HDMI output is digital only, DVI analog is not supported.
• HDMI is an evolving technology, so it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with this player.
- Be sure to use an HDMI cable with the HDMI logo 🐦 to connect an HDMI device.
- If your display does not support multi-channel audio, to use multi-channel audio you will need to either use an AV receiver that supports multi-channel audio over HDMI (set "Digital out HDMI" to "Auto" or to match the decoding capability of your equipment) or use a receiver that has a coaxial or optical SPDIF digital audio input (set "Digital audio SPDIF" to match the decoding capability of your equipment).

Connecting to a TV with component video inputs

If your TV has component video inputs, you can obtain pictures in better quality.

You may also view 480p, 720p, 1080 ipictures using the HDMI OUTPUT jack to connect to a TV ( ➔ page 21, "Connecting to a device with an HDMI input").

Note on copy protection and high definition viewing

HD DVD and DVD video disc creators have the option to include copy protection instructions in their discs that prohibit the output of some standard video or high definition video (original 720p or 1080i or up-converted 480i or 480p) from the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks. If such instructions are present in the disc you are playing, you must use the HDMI OUTPUT jack to view the disc in a high definition format and the COMPONENT OUTPUT jacks, if activated, will output video only in 480i or 480p resolution.

All in-warranty repairs must be made by an authorized TCL service centre.

For service exchange TCL will arrange to have the unit picked up by courier and a replacement unit will be returned via same courier. (Note: A major credit card number will be required as a charge of \$25.00 will apply if no fault is found with the unit.)

During the first 3 months of ownership, a new unit will be supplied as a replacement. During the remainder of the warranty period a service-renewed unit will be supplied.

The original "Bill of Sale" must be provided as proof of purchase (it will be returned with the replacement unit.)

This 12-month warranty will be strictly adhered to.

Out of warranty units should be repaired by a TCL authorized service centre.

Note: It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure proper packaging. Should damage in shipping occur, due to poor packaging, a charge back for the repair will result.

This warranty applies to the original purchaser only and is not transferable.

This warranty does not apply to sets that have been subjected to misuse, neglect, accident, physical damage or acts of nature.

Sets with the serial number removed, altered, replaced or defaced will not be covered by this warranty.

The warranties from TCL are effective only if the product is purchased in Canada from an authorized TCL dealer and operated in Canada.

Products utilized for rental or commercial purposes are not covered by this warranty.

This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, guaranties or agreements, whether expressed or implied, and no person, agent distributor, dealer, service centre or company is authorized to change, modify or extend its terms in any manner whatsoever.
