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.

Caution:

The plug has one prong wider than the other and will fit only one way into a standard electrical outlet (120 volt AC, 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 nonstandard and must be replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not

tamper with the plug or try to force it into a non-standard outlet.

NOTICE OF POSSIBLE

TV STAND INSTABILITY

WARNING: RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH!

Use your TV with the Toshiba TV stand recommended below only!

Connecting your TV

If you have not connected electronic equipment before, or you have been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section.

Note: 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; red and white for audio. The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel; 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 than standard

video cables. S-video cables can be used only with S-video compatible components.

• ColorStream

A ColorStream (component video) connection will provide the best picture performance.

Cable Types

(component video) cables come in sets of three.

Regular

Video Cable

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment, such as a VCR or DVD player:

• For GOOD picture quality: Use

regular video cables.

• For BETTER picture quality: If your

equipment has S-video connections, use S-video cables instead of regular video cables.

• For BEST picture quality: If your

equipment has ColorStream (component video) connections, use component video cables instead of regular or S-video cables. Component video cables come in sets of three.

Note: 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.

Using the remote control

Preparing the remote control for use

The remote control will operate your TV, most VCR models, and most cable TV converters together, even if they are different brands.

• If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. See “Using the remote control with a Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter” below.

• If you own a non-Toshiba VCR or converter and want to use your TV remote control to operate it, you will need to program the remote control. See “Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter” on page 13.

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

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

Note:

The remote control provided with your TV may or may not operate certain features on your VCR, cable TV converter, or other electronic equipment. Refer to the owner’s manuals provided with your other equipment to see which features are available. In addition, the other remote controls may have buttons not available on your TV’s remote control. If you would like to use those features or buttons, you may need to use the original remote controls provided with your other equipment.

Caution:

• 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.

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

3. Slide the battery cover back onto the remote control until the lock snaps.

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

To control a Toshiba VCR:

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the VCR position. The shaded buttons in the illustration at right will then control the VCR. The unshaded buttons will operate the TV as usual.

To control a Toshiba cable TV converter:

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position. The shaded buttons in the top portion of the illustration at right will then control the cable TV converter.

Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter

The remote control provided with your Toshiba TV is preprogrammed to operate Toshiba VCRs and cable TV converters.

To operate a non-Toshiba VCR or converter using the remote control provided with your TV:

1. Refer to the VCR and cable TV converter code tables (below and on the next page) to find the corresponding code for your VCR or converter brand.

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

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

• VCR: Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the remote control

to “VCR.”

• Cable TV converter: Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the

remote control to “CABLE.”

3. While holding down RECALL, press the CHANNEL NUMBERS to enter the three-digit code for your VCR or cable TV converter brand.

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

• If the VCR or converter responds, you entered the correct

code.

• If the VCR or converter does not respond, repeat steps 1–4

using another code.

5. Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to “TV” to control the TV.

For future reference, write down the codes you used:

Blocking programs by ratings

The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) uses a rating system to qualify motion picture content. Television broadcasters employ a similar rating system to qualify the content of television programs. The MPAA, Youth TV, and TV ratings work with the V-Chip feature to allow you to block access to programs that exceed the rating limits you set.

Ratings definitions
