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.

TV Guide On Screen™ Reminder

The TV Guide On Screen™ system receives program listings data through your Cable or over-the-air video signal. In order to receive regular program listing updates, remember to do the following:

1. Leave the TV in standby mode when it is not in use by turning it OFF but leaving the power cord plugged in.

2. If you have a Cable box connected, leave it ON.

3. If you have a VCR connected, turn it OFF when not in use. (Do not unplug the power cord.) See page 16 for VCR connection instructions.

4. If you have more than one Cable system in your area, you may be prompted to select which Cable system’s program data to download. If so prompted, follow the on-screen instructions.

Note: If the TV power cord is unplugged for an extended period of time, it may take up to 24 hours with the TV in standby mode (power cord plugged in and power OFF) to download the TV Guide On Screen™ program schedule. It may take up to a week before an entire program schedule is available.

Programming channels into the TV’s channel memory

When you press CHANNEL yz on the remote control or TV top panel, your TV will stop only on the channels stored in the TV’s channel memory.

Follow the steps below to program channels into the TV’s channel memory.

Programming channels automatically

Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your area and store them in its memory. After the channels are programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase individual channels.

Note:

•You must configure the antenna input sources before programming channels (see page 39).

• If the input signal type is set to Cable for an antenna input, the automatic channel programming process erases channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory.

• If the input signal type is set to Antenna, the automatic channel programming process does NOT erase channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory, but adds newly found channels to the existing set of programmed channels. To remove a channel from the memory, you must manually delete it (see next page).

•To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the remote control.

• Programming channels for an antenna input configured for Cable will take substantially longer than for an antenna input configured for Antenna. This is normal; however, once channel programming is completed, you should not have to repeat the programming process again unless your Cable TV service lineup changes significantly.

• If you have a CableCARD™ inserted (page 15), channel programming for ANT 1 is disabled because the CableCARD™ automatically loads the Cable channel list into the TV’s channel memory.

To program channels automatically:

1. Make sure you have configured the antenna input sources. See page 39 for details.

2. Press MENU and open the Setup menu.

3. Highlight Installation and press ENTER. (A new set of Installation menu icons will appear on-screen.)

4. Open the Terrestrial menu, highlight Channel Program, and press ENTER.

5. Highlight ANT 1 or ANT 2, depending on which antenna input you want to program channels for, and then

• All channels that are tuned for at least 7 seconds using the CH yz buttons or the FAV CH yz buttons on the remote control.

Clearing channels from the channel history

• Turning off the TV will clear all three channel histories (ANT 1, ANT 2, and Cable Box).

Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting

Before calling a service technician, please check the following table for a possible cause of the symptom and some solutions.

Symptom Solution

TV will not turn on • Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press POWER.

•The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the batteries or try the top panel buttons.

Picture problems • Check the antenna/cable connections (Chapter 2).

•Press INPUT on the remote control or TV/VIDEO on the TV top panel and select a valid video input source (page 60). If no device is connected to any of the inputs on the TV, no picture will display when you select that particular input source. For device connection details, see Chapter 2.

• Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional outdoor antenna (if applicable).

•The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another channel.

• Adjust the picture qualities (page 69).

• If you have a VCR connected to your TV, do not connect the same VCR to the TV’s output and input connections at the same time (page 20).

• Do not connect a standard video cable and an S-video cable to VIDEO-1 on the TV back at the same time (Chapter 2).

Noisy picture • If you are watching a tuned analog channel (off-air broadcast or Cable TV), set the CableClear DNR

feature to Auto to reduce visible interference in the TV picture (page 70).

Video Input Selection • If the Input Selection window does not appear when you press INPUT on the remote control or problems TV/VIDEO on the TV top panel, press INPUT or TV/VIDEO a second time, which will change to the next

video input source and display the Input Selection window.

Cannot view external signals • If you cannot view signals from external devices connected to VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, or ColorStream, or or channel 3 or 4 from channels 3 or 4, make sure the Input Lock is set to Off (page 82).

Black box on screen • Set the Closed Caption feature to Off (page 72).

Poor color or no color •The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another channel.

• Adjust the Tint and/or Color (page 69).

•When the ColorStream signal source is active, the VIDEO OUT terminal outputs blank video. To receive video from the VIDEO OUT signal, a standard video or S-video IN terminal must be used instead of the ColorStream connections.

Picture and sound are out of sync • As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare instances, when viewing certain content (e.g..

television broadcasts, video games, DVD), you may notice that the sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This phenomenon can be caused by various factors including, without limitation, video processing within the TV, video processing in an attached gaming system, and video processing/different compression rates used by broadcasters in their programming. You may want to try one or more of the following suggestions, which may help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:

• If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a programmable audio delay feature, use this feature

to help synchronize the sound to the picture.

• If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV channels, please contact your local broadcast, cable,

or satellite provider to inform them of this issue.

Page 91

Chapter 11: Troubleshooting

Symptom Solution

Sound problems • Check the antenna/cable connections (see Chapter 2).

•The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another channel.

•The sound may be muted. Press VOL

• If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to Stereo mode (page 74).

• If you are not receiving a second audio program from a known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is

set to SAP mode (page 74).

• If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program you are watching (such as music or a foreign

language), the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo mode (page 74).

Remote control problems • Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device mode (page 31).

• Remove all obstructions between the remote control and the TV.

•The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the batteries (page 26).

•Your TV remote control may not operate certain features on your external device. Refer to the owner’s

manual for your other device to determine its available features. If your TV remote control does not operate a specific feature on another device, use the remote control that came with the device (page 29).

• If the TV still does not act as expected, use the Restore Factory Defaults procedure as described on page

45.

Channel tuning problems • Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device mode (page 31).

•The channel may have been erased from the channel memory by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add

the channel to the channel memory (page 41).

•The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block feature. Unblock the channel (page 82).

• If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the antenna configuration (page 44). If you are still

unable to tune digital channels, clear all channels from the channel list (page 41) and reprogram channels into the channel memory (page 40). If you are still unable to tune digital channels, use the Restore Factory Defaults procedure as described on page 45.

Closed caption problems • If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned, no captions will display on-screen

(page 72).

• If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear on-screen. If this happens, turn off the closed

caption feature (page 72).

•A closed caption signal may not display correctly in the following situations: a) when a videotape has

been dubbed; b) when the signal reception is weak; or c) when the signal reception is nonstandard (page 72).

Rating Blocking (V-Chip) problems • If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code entering screen is displayed, press RECALL four times

within 5 seconds. The PIN code you previously stored will be cleared (page 80).

•The V-Chip feature is available for the U.S. V-Chip system only (page 81).

Recording problems • If you use the TV’s remote control to start recording, you will not be able to change inputs (page 60). If

you attempt to do so, the message “Not Available While Recording” will appear on-screen.

• If you are recording a digital channel, you will only be able to change analog channels while the recording

is in progress. If you are recording an analog channel, you will only be able to change digital channels while the recording is in progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being recorded (digital or analog) will be locked on the channel that is currently recording.

• It is recommended that you use the TV’s remote control to start recording. If you use a device other than

the TV’s remote control to start recording and then attempt to access a feature that is normally denied during recording (changing inputs), the recorded audio and/or video may not be what you intended to record. See pages 60 and 64.

TV stops responding to controls • If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote control or TV top panel and you cannot turn off

the TV, press and hold the POWER button on the TV top panel for 5 or more seconds to reset the TV.

Other problems • If your TV’s problem has not been addressed in this Troubleshooting section or the recommended

solution has not worked, use the Restore Factory Defaults procedure as described on page 45.
