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
childrens 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!

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!
4
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 TVs 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 TVs ColorStream 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.)

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, use component video cables between the TV and DVD player. You can connect the component video cables from the DVD player to either ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1 or HD2).

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 or cable TV converter, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you must program the remote control. (See “Programming the remote control
your TV
Connecting
for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or a cable TV converter” on page
15.)
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.
3. Slide the battery cover back on to the remote control until the lock snaps.
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.
• If the remote control does not operate correctly or if the operating range is reduced, replace both betteries with new ones.

Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter
The TV remote control is pre-programmed to operate Toshiba VCRs and cable TV converters. To use the remote control to operate a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV 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 TV converter: Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch on the
remote control to CABLE.
3. White 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 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 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.
