Important notes about your LCD TV/DVD Combination

The following symptoms are technical limitations of LCD display technology and are not an indication of malfunction. Therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for perceived issues resulting from these symptoms.

1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a fixed, nonmoving image is displayed for a long period of time. The afterimage is not permanent and will disappear in a short period of time.

2) The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, there may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.). This is a structural property of LCD technology, is not a sign of malfunction, and is not covered under your warranty. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance.

Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a “gun” type

of joystick at an on-screen target may not work on this TV.

Moisture condensation occurs during the following cases.

•When you bring the TV directly from a cold place to a warm place.

•When you put the TV in a room where you just turned on the heater, or a place where the cold wind from the air conditioner directly hits the TV.

• In summer, when you put the TV in a hot and humid place just after you move the TV from an air conditioned room.

•When you put the TV in a humid place.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Overview of cable types

Note: One dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable is included with your TV. All other required cables, if not provided with your other devices, can be purchased at many electronics accessory suppliers.

●

Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT-1 and/or ANT-2 RF inputs on your TV.

●

Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with standard audio and standard (composite) video output. These cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.

●

S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.

Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

●

Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with component video output. (ColorStream These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.

Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.

●

HDMI cable is for use with devices with HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output. HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native format. This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI device connection. See page 21 for further details.

Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.

●

Dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable is for use with video devices with IR (infrared) remote control. This cable is for connection to the G-LINK enable TV Guide On Screen™ recording features (Chapters 5 and 7).

Note: The IR blaster/G-LINK™ cable included with your TV has specific characteristics that allow them to work properly with this G-LINK™ port. Never use other aftermarket IR blaster or G-LINK™ cables with this TV. Other cables may not function properly and can cause damage. THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR TOSHIBA WARRANTY.

●

Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input to the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal or your TV. See page 22.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Programming the remote control to operate your other devices

Device code setup

1. Refer to the multi-brand remote control device code table on pages 31–32 to find the code for the brand of your device.

If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until you find the one that works.

2. Press MODE until the Mode indicator for the device (CBL/SAT, VCR/PVR, DVD, AUDIO1, AUDIO2) lights up.

3. While holding down RECALL, press the Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code for your brand of device. If a valid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink twice. If an invalid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink one long blink.

4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER to test the code.

If the device responds to the remote control:

You have entered the correct code.

If the device does not respond to the remote control:

You may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3 and 4 using another code.

Note: In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not operational, repeat the device code setup using another code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your device, use the device’s original remote control.

5. To control the TV, repeatedly press MODE to select “TV.”

Note:

•Although the TV remote control includes codes for many devices, it may not include codes for some or all of the features on certain devices you wish to control. If you are unable to program the TV remote control to operate your device or some of the features on that device, use the device’s remote control or the controls on the device.

• Each time you change the batteries you will need to reprogram the remote control.

• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR 1/VCR 2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR 1” or “VCR 2”) and reprogram the remote control.

Searching and sampling the code of a device (8500)

If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you can cycle the remote control through the available codes for that device mode and sample the functions to find the code that operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided they are applicable to that mode, are POWER, 1, VOL y, CH y, and PLAY. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.

To cycle through each available device code and sample its functions:

1. Press MODE to select the mode you want to set up.

2. While holding down RECALL, press 8 – 5 – 0 – 0. The remote control will enter program mode.

3. Point the remote control at the target device and press POWER (or other function buttons that are available to be sampled).

4. If the device responds to the remote control:

Press RECALL to store the device code. The mode indicator will blink twice and the remote control will exit the program mode.

If the device does not respond to the remote control:

Press y, and then press POWER. Repeat this step until the device responds to the remote control, and then press RECALL.

Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode indicator will blink three times. The remote control will begin to cycle through the available codes again. If no key is pressed within 10 seconds while programming, the remote control will exit the program mode and return to the previous code.
