Child Safety

It Makes A Difference

Where Your TV Stands

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

￿If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.

￿The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.

￿Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over, causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!

￿The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home

entertainment enjoyable and safe.

￿The Consumer Electronics Association formed the Home Entertainment Support Safety Committee, comprised of TV and consumer electronics furniture manufacturers, to advocate

children’s safety and educate consumers and their families about

television safety.

Tune Into Safety

￿One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large enough to support the weight of your

TV (and other electronic components).

￿Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).

￿Carefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

￿Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.

￿Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

￿Remember that children can become excited while watching a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

￿Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home with your family and friends. Thank you!

46HM84 specifications

The Toshiba 46HM84 is a high-definition LCD television that was part of Toshiba's acclaimed line of flat-screen TVs, designed to enhance the viewing experience with its impressive features and technology. Launched with a 46-inch screen size, the 46HM84 became a popular choice among consumers seeking quality and performance.

One of the primary features of the 46HM84 is its 1080p resolution, which translates to a pixel count of 1920 x 1080. This level of resolution ensures that users experience vibrant colors and sharp images, making it ideal for watching high-definition content, including movies and sports. The television is equipped with an expansive 178-degree viewing angle, allowing for consistent picture quality from various positions in the room, which is particularly beneficial during gatherings with family and friends.

In terms of display technology, the Toshiba 46HM84 employs a high-contrast LCD panel that offers deep blacks and brilliant whites, enriching the color spectrum and providing a more immersive viewing experience. This combination of technologies results in a dynamic picture that captures the nuances of various media types, from the darkest film scenes to brightly lit action sequences.

Connectivity is another key aspect of this model. The 46HM84 comes with multiple inputs, including HDMI, component, and composite interfaces, allowing for easy connections to various devices such as gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, and set-top boxes. This versatility makes it a straightforward addition to any home entertainment system.

Additionally, the Toshiba 46HM84 features built-in speakers that deliver decent audio performance, enhancing the overall viewing experience. However, like many televisions from its era, those seeking a more immersive sound may consider investing in external audio solutions.

Another remarkable feature of the Toshiba 46HM84 is its energy-efficient design. It adheres to various energy-saving standards, which helps reduce electricity consumption while still providing a high-quality viewing experience.

In summary, the Toshiba 46HM84 stands out for its blend of high-definition resolution, wide viewing angles, and solid connectivity options, all set within an energy-efficient package. With its well-rounded performance, it appeals to consumers looking to elevate their home entertainment experience.
