Important Information

Precautions

WARNI NG

TO REDUCE THE R ISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

The lightning symbol in the triangle tells you that the voltage inside this product may be strong enough to cause an electric shock. DO NOT TRY TO SERVICE THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF.

The exclamation mark in the triangle tells you that important operating and maintenance instructions follow this symbol.

CAUTION

TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT USE THIS POLARIZED PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION CORD RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE PRONGS CAN BE FULLY INSERTED INTO THE OUTLET TO PREVENT ANY EXPOSURE OF THE PRONGS ON THE POLARIZED PLUG.

ATTENTION

POUR PRÉVENIR LES CHOCS ÉLECTRIQUES NE PAS UTILISER CETTE FICHE POLARISÉE AVEC UN PROLONGATEUR, UNE PRISE DE COURANT OU UNE AUTRE SORTIE DE COURANT, SAUF SI LES LAMES PEUVENT ÊTRE INSÉRÉS À FOND SANS EN LAISSER AUCUNE PARTIE À DÉCOUVERT.

CAUTION

The plug has one prong wider than the other and will fit only one way into a standard electrical outlet (120 volt AC,

wide prong

60 Hz). If the plug does not fit into the outlet, try turning it around. If the plug still does not fit, the outlet is probably non-standard and must be replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not tamper with the plug or try to force it into a non-standard outlet.

Note to CATV system installers in the USA

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides guidelines for proper grounding, and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Installing your TV

• Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform. The mounting surface should be flat and steady. If you install the TV on a soft floor, make sure that the floor is not damaged by the weight of the TV.

• This TV set may be used only with the Toshiba stands shown on page 48. Use with other stands may result in instability, causing possible injury.

• Place the TV far enough away from the walls to allow proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV. Avoid dusty areas too.

Using your TV

• Do not stand or climb on the TV.

• Do not put any heavy object on top of the TV.

• Do not place containers with liquids such as drinks or cosmetics on the TV. If any foreign material or water leaks into the TV, unplug the power cord and contact your dealer.

• Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for extended periods of time. Stationary patterns generated by a Multi-Window display, computer displays, video games, stock market reports, etc., can become permanently engrained on the picture tube. This damage is not protected by your warranty because it is the result of misuse. If you wish to use your TV to display still images, reduce brightness and contrast settings. Never leave a Multi-Window, computer, or video game display unattended.

Cleaning your TV

• To clean the TV screen:

1. First remove the plug from the power outlet to avoid

possible shock hazard.

2. Use a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened

with a solution of mild detergent and warm water to clean the TV screen and trim. Do not use too much water on the TV screen. Water spills into the cabinet and may cause damage to the TV. Avoid excess water.

3. Remove any extra moisture with the same cloth or a dry

one.

CAUTION

Never use strong solvents such as thinner, benzene or other chemicals on or near cabinet, as they might damage the finish of the cabinet.

Cable

If you have not 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.

•Audio and 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 (or mono) left 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.

• ColorStream

cables come in sets of three. A ColorStream

connection will provide the best picture performance.

Connecting a VCR

This connection allows you to watch local channels and video programs, play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and record from one channel while watching another channel.

You will need:

• one coaxial cable

• one pair of audio cables (one single audio cable for a mono VCR)

• one video cable (one S-video cable for an S-VHS VCR)

Caution:

Do not plug the TV in until you have finished connecting all of your equipment.

Caution:

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.

If you have an S-VHS VCR, use an S-video cable (in the S-Video inputs) instead of a regular video cable.

Do not connect a regular video cable and an S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the same time. Doing so will distort the picture.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.

Notes:

•“---” will send nothing.

•“ TV” will jump to TV.

•“VCR ” will jump to last active VCR or DVD. Active VCR/DVD is defined as the mode that remains for a minimum of 5

seconds, or if a key is pressed in that mode.

The VOLUME and MUTE will jump to “TV” by default. When the volume is unlocked, all the devices will have their own volume. The AUDIO1/2 (Receiver, CD) modes will have their own volume even if Volume Lock is on TV, CABLE/SAT, VCR, or DVD. See “Using the Volume Lock feature” on page 15.

can cycle the remote through the available codes for that device mode and sample functions in order to find the code that properly operates the desired target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided they are applicable to that mode, are 0, 1, 2, 3, POWER, VOL y, CH y, PLAY and STOP. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.

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

Features

Using the TV’s

Appendix

1. Refer to the device code table on pages 16–19 to find the code for the brand of your device.

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

2. Repeatedly press MODE until the device mode indicator (CABLE/SAT, VCR, DVD, AUDIO1, AUDIO2) lights up.

3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code for your device. If a valid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink two times. 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.

5. To control the TV, repeatedly press MODE until the TV mode indicator lights up.

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

2. While holding down RECALL, press 9–9–1. 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 two times and the remote control will exit 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:

• Every time you replace the batteries, you must reprogram the remote control.

• Some newer VCRs are capable of working on either of two remote codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has this kind of switch and does not respond to any of the codes for your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram the remote control.

Note: When a search cycle is complete, 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.

Verifying the device code (990)

Use this feature to verify the codes for your other electronic devices. The number of blinks after pressing the 1, 2, 3, and 4 buttons is the 4-digit code set up for that mode.

For example, to verify the device code of the VCR mode:

1. Repeatedly press MODE to select VCR mode.

2. While holding down RECALL, press 9–9–0.

3. Press 1 ➝ 2 blinks.

4. Press 2 ➝ 3 blinks.

5. Press 3 ➝ 4 blinks.

6. Press 4 ➝ 5 blinks.

This verifies that the device code of the VCR mode is “2345.”

Using the Volume Lock feature (993)

For the TV, CABLE/SAT, VCR, and DVD modes, the volume controls (VOL yz and MUTE) can be programmed (locked) to the selected device mode. This feature does not apply to the AUDIO1/2 modes.

For example, to lock the volume controls to always jump to the CABLE/SAT mode:

1. Repeatedly press MODE to select the CABLE/SAT mode.

2. While holding down RECALL, press 9–9–3.

3. Press VOL y. The Mode indicator will blink two times (locked).
