Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

 If you are like most Americans, you have a TV in your home.

Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.

 The home theater entertainment experience is a growing

trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.

 Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately

situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over, causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!

 The consumer electronics industry

is committed to making home

entertainment enjoyable and safe.

 The Consumer Electronics

Association formed the Home

Entertainment Support Safety

Committee, comprised of TV and consumer electronics furniture

manufacturers, to advocate

children’s safety and educate

consumers and their families about

television safety.

Tune Into Safety

 One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate

furniture large enough to support the weight of your

TV (and other electronic components).

 Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure

your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).

 Carefully read and understand the other enclosed

instructions for proper use of this product.

 Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture

and TVs.

 Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR,

remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

 Remember that children can become excited while watching

a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

 Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of

home with your family and friends. Thank you!

18) Always place the TV on the floor or a sturdy, level, stable surface that can support the weight of the unit.

19) Never place items such as vases, aquariums, or candles on top of the TV.

10) Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits the apparatus.

11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use

caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13) Unplug this apparatus during

23) Always operate this equipment from a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power source only.

29) [This item applies to projection TVs only.] If the air temperature rises suddenly (for example, when the TV is first delivered), condensation may form on the lenses. This can make the picture appear distorted or the color appear faded. If this happens, turn off the TV for 6 to 7 hours to allow the condensation to evaporate.

24) Always make sure the antenna system is properly grounded to provide adequate protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges (see Section 810 of the National Electric Code).

25) DANGER: RISK OF SERIOUS PERSONAL

INJURY OR DEATH!

• Use extreme care to make sure you are never in a position where your body (or any item you are in contact with, such as a ladder or screwdriver) can accidentally touch overhead power lines. Never locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.

• Never attempt to install any of the following during lightning activity: a) an antenna system; or b) cables, wires, or any home theater component connected to an antenna or phone system.

30)For added protection of your TV from lightning and power surges, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the antenna from the TV if you leave the TV unattended or unused for long periods of time.

31) During normal use, the TV may make occasional snapping or popping sounds. This is normal, especially when the unit is being turned on or off. If these sounds become frequent or continuous, unplug the power cord and contact a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

32) Possible Adverse Effects on TV Picture Tube: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the TV screen for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the picture tube and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your TV on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:

• Fixed Images, such as PIP/POP windows, stock tickers,

video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.

• Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For

example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (gray bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (gray bars on left and right sides of screen).

Care

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:

26) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear dull if you sit too far to the left or right of the TV, or if sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove the source of reflections while viewing the TV.

27) Always unplug the TV before cleaning. Never use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

28) WARNI NG: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Never spill liquids or push objects of any kind into the TV cabinet slots.

Service

33) WARNI NG: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Never attempt to service the

TV yourself. Opening and

removing the covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to a Toshiba Authorized Service Center.

34) If you have the TV serviced:

• Ask the service technician to use only replacement parts specified by the manufacturer.

• Upon completion of service, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks to determine that the TV is in safe operating condition.

35) When the TV reaches the end of its useful life, ask a qualified service technician to properly dispose of the TV. Improper disposal may result in a picture tube implosion

Connecting your TV

Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.



Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses “F” connectors.



Standard stereo A/V cables usually come in sets of three, and are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio. Your TV’s standard A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.



S-Video cable is for use with video equipment that has S-Video connectors.



Component video cables come in sets of three (typically color-coded red, green, and blue), and are for use with video equipment that has component video connectors. Your TV’s ColorStream coded in the same manner as the cables.

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:



For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.



For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video connectors, use an S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. (You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect a standard yellow video cable at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.)



For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video connectors, use component video cables instead of a standard yellow video cable or S-video cable. (You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection.)

Introduction

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

your TV

with a non-Toshiba VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 15.)

Connecting

Installing the remote control batteries

To install the batteries:

Using the

Remote Control

your TV

Setting up

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

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

Note:

Your TV’s remote control may not operate certain features on your VCR, cable TV converter, or other electronic device.

Refer to the owner’s manuals for your other devices to determine their available features.

If your TV’s remote control does not operate a specific feature on a device, use the remote control that came with the device.

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.

• If the batteries are dead or if you will not use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Note:

• Battery life expectancy is about one year with normal use.

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

Using the remote control with a VCR or cable TV converter

To control a VCR:

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

To control a cable TV converter:

Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position. The shaded buttons in the top half of the illustration at right will control the cable TV converter. The other buttons will operate the TV as usual.

If you own a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter, you may be able to program the TV remote control to control it. See “Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter” on page 15.

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

The remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs. To use the remote control to operate a non-Toshiba VCR or cable converter, follow the steps below to program the remote control.

1. Refer to the “VCR code table” or “Cable TV converter code table” on pages 16-17 to find the corresponding code for your VCR or cable TV converter brand.

If more than one code 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. While holding down the RECALL button, press the Number buttons (0-9) to enter the three-digit code for your VCR or cable TV converter.

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

If the VCR or converter responds, you have entered the correct code.

If the VCR or converter does not respond, you may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 1-4 using another code.

5. Reset the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to TV to control the TV.

For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:

• 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.

You can leave your TV in STEREO mode because it will automatically output the type of sound being broadcast (stereo or monaural). The word “STEREO” or “SAP” displays in yellow in the menu when the TV receives the signal.

If the stereo sound is noisy, select MONO to reduce the noise.

To listen to SAP (if available):

1. Press MENU, and then press x or • until the AUDIO menu

appears.

2. Press y or z to highlight MTS.

3. Press x or • to highlight SAP. You will hear the station’s second

audio program (if available) from the speakers, while viewing the original program’s picture (see note at right).

Note :

A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those TV stations that offer it.

For example, a station might broadcast music as a second audio program. If you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the screen but hear music instead of the program’s normal audio.

However, if you have SAP on, and the station you are watching is not currently broadcasting a second audio program, you will see the picture but not hear any sound. If this happens, put the TV in STEREO mode so you can hear the station’s normal audio.

Using the SRS 3D surround sound feature

The SRS 3D surround sound feature expands the audio listening field wider and deeper to create exceptional sound quality from the TV’s speakers. The feature uses stereo signals from a TV broadcast or video input.

To turn on the SRS 3D surround:

1. Select STEREO mode (see “Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts” on page 40).

2. Press MENU, and then press x or • until the THEATER menu appears.
