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 childrenÕs 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!

62HMX85, 52HMX85, 46HMX85 specifications

The Toshiba 46HMX85, 62HMX85, and 52HMX85 are a trio of high-definition LCD televisions that have garnered attention for their impressive features and advanced technologies. Designed to enhance the viewing experience, these models incorporate cutting-edge components that cater to the needs of modern consumers.

The 46HMX85 boasts a 46-inch display, while the 62HMX85 features a larger 62-inch screen, and the 52HMX85 sits comfortably in the middle with its 52-inch display. All three models deliver a full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, ensuring crisp and clear images with vibrant colors. This high level of resolution is particularly beneficial for watching movies, sports, and gaming, as it allows for a more immersive viewing experience.

One of the standout technologies in these models is Toshiba's proprietary AMR (Active Motion Rate) system, which enhances motion clarity and reduces blurriness during fast-paced scenes. This is especially useful for action movies and live sports broadcasts, where quick movements can often lead to a loss of detail. Additionally, the televisions come equipped with Dynamic Picture Mode, which optimizes brightness and contrast levels based on the ambient light in the room, delivering an ideal viewing experience no matter the time of day.

Connectivity options are abundant with the Toshiba HMX85 series. Each model features multiple HDMI ports, allowing users to connect a variety of devices, such as gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, and sound systems. USB ports are also available for easy access to multimedia files stored on external drives, enabling users to play music, view photos, and watch videos directly on the television.

Another notable characteristic is the built-in 10W speakers that provide decent audio quality, although audiophiles may wish to connect an external sound system for a richer audio experience. The televisions also support various sound enhancement technologies, ensuring that dialogue remains clear and sound immersion is enhanced.

In summary, the Toshiba 46HMX85, 62HMX85, and 52HMX85 are sophisticated LCD televisions that cater to a wide range of entertainment needs. With their full HD resolution, advanced motion clarity technologies, extensive connectivity options, and reliable audio performance, these models are appealing choices for anyone looking to enhance their home entertainment setup. Whether for casual viewing or serious movie nights, Toshiba has designed the HMX85 series with quality and versatility in mind.
