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 AC 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. 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 or doors on equipment.

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.

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 filled with liquids, such as vases, to be placed on the equipment.

DO NOT place hot objects or naked flame sources, such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires.

TOSHIBA 40VL748 - Do not - 1

WARNING: To prevent the spread of fire, keep candles or other open flames away from this product at all times.

DO NOT use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws. To ensure complete safety, always fit the manufacturer's approved stand, bracket or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions.

DO NOT leave equipment switched on when it is unattended, unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a standby mode. Switch off by withdrawing the plug, and make sure your family knows 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 if it is damaged in any way – switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.

ABOVE ALL – NEVER let anyone, especially children, push or hit the screen and cabinet back, or push anything into holes, slots or any other openings in the case. These actions will damage screen or internal parts.

NEVER connect the supplied COMPONENT Adaptor cable or AV Adaptor cable to a wall outlet. These cables are ONLY for insertion into the socket provided for the purpose on the rear/ side of the TV.

NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind – it is better to be safe than sorry.

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.

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. Also, please be certain that small items cannot be inserted into slots or openings in the case.

Cleaning the screen and cabinet...

Turn off the power, and clean the screen and cabinet with a soft, dry cloth. The enclosed cleaning cloth is for cabinet cleaning. We recommend that you do not use any proprietary polishes or solvents on the screen or cabinet as this may cause damage.

For energy saving:

We recommend that you use the television with the factory settings. The factory settings are for energy saving.

Turning the television off at its mains supply, or un-plugging it, will cut energy use to nearly zero for all televisions. This is recommended when the television is not being used for a long time, e.g. when on holiday.

Reducing the brightness of the screen will reduce energy use.

Energy efficiency cuts energy consumption and thus saves money by reducing electricity bills.

NOTE: Putting the television into standby mode will reduce energy consumption, but will still draw some power.

Using your home network

This TV is a DLNA CERTIFIED™ Player and Renderer. This TV can play digital content stored on a DLNA CERTIFIED™ product with server function.

If you want to use this TV as a DLNA CERTIFIED™ Player or Renderer, you will have to configure the network on your TV (see page 13).

If you want to use your home network, you will have to configure the network on your TV. (see page 13) Change the network settings if necessary (see 'Setting up the Network' on page 38).

When using a wireless home network:

Wireless Interoperability

The TOSHIBA Dual Band WLAN Adaptor is designed to be interoperable with any wireless LAN product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)/Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology, and is compliant to:

  • The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision a/b/g/n), as defined and approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
  • The TOSHIBA Dual Band WLAN Adaptor is intended for use with the VL74/XL74 series LCD TV's and should not be used with any other devices.

Use of the WLAN Adaptor in other USB products may result in damage to the WLAN Adaptor and or the equipment. Such use will void any warranty that may otherwise apply, and TOSHIBA will have no liability for any damage that may result from such use.

CAUTION

Bluetooth ^™ and Wireless LAN devices operate within the same radio frequency range and may interfere with one another. If you use Bluetooth ^™ and Wireless LAN devices simultaneously, you may occasionally experience a less than optimal network performance or even lose your network connection.

If you should experience any such problem, immediately turn off either your Bluetooth ^™ or Wireless LAN device.

Actual performance can vary, including lower wireless network capacity, data throughput rate, range and coverage.

Performance depends on many factors, conditions and variables, including distance from the access point, volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, operating system used, mix of wireless products used, interference and other adverse conditions.

Wireless LAN and your Health

Wireless LAN products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by Wireless LAN devices, however, is far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones.

Because Wireless LAN products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Wireless LAN is safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.

In some situations or environments, the use of Wireless LAN may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization. Such restrictions may apply in environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.

If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific organization or environment, you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use the Wireless LAN device prior to turning on the equipment.
