ANTENNA / ANTENA

Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the precautions below.

An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.

WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.

Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code in the USA and Section 54 of the Canadian Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Puesta a tierra de la antena exterior — Cuando instale una antena exterior, tenga en cuenta las precauciones siguientes.

Un sistema de antena esterior no deberá colocarse cerca de líneas de alta tensión ni otros circuitos de iluminación o alimentación, ni donde pueda entrar en contacto con tales líneas o circuitos.

CUANDO INSTALE UN SISTEMA DE ANTENA EXTERIOR, TENGA EXTREMADO CUIDADO PARA EVITAR QUE ENTRE EN CONTACTO CON TALES LÍNEAS DE ALIMENTACIÓN O CIRCUITOS, YA QUE TAL CONTACTO PODRÍA RESULTAR INVARIABLEMENTE FATAL.

Cerciórese de que el sistema de antena esté puesto a tierra a fin de que proporcione cierta protección contra sobretensiones y cargas estáticas. La Sección 810 del Código Eléctrico Nacional (NEC) de EE.UU. y la Sección 54 del Código Eléctrico Canadiense ofrecen informacón con respecto a la puesta a tierra adecuada de una unidad de descarga de antena, el tamaño de los conductores de puesta a tierra, la ubicación de la unidad de descarga de la antena, la conexión de los electrodos de puesta a tierra, y los requisitos de tales electrodos.

Connecting

• 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 and provide the best picture performance. ColorStream cables can only be used with ColorStream compatible components.

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 8.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

1. Slide the battery cover off of the back of the remote control.

2. Install two “AA” size batteries. Match the + and - signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Note:

This remote control’s functions may or may not operate your VCR 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.

Caution:

• Dispose of your batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw your 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.

Using the remote control with a VCR or a cable TV converter

To control a Toshiba VCR:

To control a cable TV converter:

Program the remote control to recognize the brand of your converter (see “Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or cable TV converter,” page 8). The shaded buttons shown on the right will control the cable TV converter.

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position.

Using the

Remote Control

This remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs. To use VCRs or cable converters other than Toshiba models, you must follow the steps below before you operate your remote control.

1. Refer to the “VCR code table” or “Cable TV converter code table” on pages 9-10 to find the number that corresponds to the brand name of your VCR or converter.

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

2. If you are reprogramming the remote control to operate your:

• VCR, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the remote control

to VCR.

• cable converter, set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the

remote control to CABLE.

3. Hold down the RECALL button while using the Number buttons to enter the three-digit code number of your brand of VCR or converter.

4. Point the remote control at the VCR or converter and press POWER to test the code number.

If the VCR or converter turns on, you have entered the right number.

If the VCR or converter does not respond to the remote control, you may have entered the wrong number. Repeat steps 1-4 with another code number.

For future reference, write down the code numbers you used: VCR code _____________________ Cable code _____________________

Note:

• Each 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, it may not respond to any of the code numbers for your VCR brand name. In this case, set the switch to the other position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram the remote control.

All warranties implied by state law, including the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, are expressly limited to the duration of the limited warranties set forth above.

The time within which action must be commenced to enforce any obligation of TACP or THI arising under this warranty or under any statute, or law of the United States or any state thereof, is hereby limited to 90 days from the date you discover or should have discovered, the defect. This limitation does not apply to implied warranties arising under state law.

This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which may vary from state to state. Some states do not allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, when an action may be brought, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above provisions may not apply to you.
