If you are like most consumers
home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.
¾
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.
¾
Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropr iately
situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio
speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,
causing unnecessary injury.

Connecting your TV
If you haven’t connected electronic equipment before, or you have
been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cables
are not supplied.)
• A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your
antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.
• Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded
according to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The
red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio
cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear
panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded in
the same manner as the cables.
• S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video cables
can only be used with S-video compatible components.
• Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the best
picture performance. Component video cables can only be used
with component video compatible components.
Caution:
Do not plug the TV in until you have finished
connecting all of your equipment.

Connecting a cable converter box
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable
channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some
cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is
scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the
use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable
company.
For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service
For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box,
connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack
on the back of the television.
For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service
If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/
Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna
Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown
below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler
box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to
select channels.
your TV
Connecting
For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with
Scrambled Premium Channels
If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are
unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (sometimes called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box from the cable
installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown
below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any
nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the "A" position,
tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually
channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.
Note:
When you use a converter box with your TV,
there may be features that you cannot
program using the remote control, such as
labeling channels, blocking channels, and
programming your favorite channels.

Safeguards
Important
With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR and DVD
player models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are
different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR or
DVD player, your remote control is already programmed and ready to
use. If you own different brands of VCRs, DVD players and/or
converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See
“Programming the remote control for use with a VCR, DVD player, or
cable TV converter” on page 12.)
Installing the remote control batteries
To install the batteries:
1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.
2. Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the
batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
Note:
The TV remote control may or may not
operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV
converter. Refer to the owner’s manuals
supplied with the equipment to see which
features are available. In addition, the original
controllers may have features not available on
this remote control. If you would like to
continue to use these features, you may want
to use the original remote control.
Cautions:
• Dispose of batteries in a designated
disposal area. Do not throw batteries into a
fire.
• Do not mix battery types or combine used
batteries with new ones.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to
prevent battery acid from leaking into the
battery compartment.
• If you do not intend to use the remote control
for a long time, remove the batteries.

Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts
You can listen to high-fidelity stereo sound with the Multi-channel TV
Sound (MTS) feature. MTS can also transmit a second audio program
(SAP) containing a second language or other audio information.
When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the word STEREO
or SAP appears on-screen every time the TV is turned on, the channel
is changed, or the RECALL button is pressed.
The MTS feature is not available in the VIDEO mode.
You can leave your TV in STEREO mode because it will automatically
output stereo or monaural sound, depending on the broadcast type. If
the stereo sound is noisy, select MONO to reduce the noise. The word
STEREO or SAP is displayed in light blue when the TV receives the
signal.
To select the desired MTS setting:
Repeatedly press the MTS button to select either STEREO, SAP,
MONO+SAP, or MONO. If the current program is not available in stereo
or SAP, the setting will not be available when you press the MTS
button.
