Important Information
Precautions
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK 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.
• Model 43H70 must be used only with the Toshiba stand
shown on page 44. Use with other stands may result in
instability and cause 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.
• Damage may occur if you leave the TV in direct sunlight or
near a heater. Avoid areas subject to extremely high
temperatures or humidity, and temperatures of 41˚F(5˚C) or
lower.
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 AC cord and contact your dealer.
• If the room temperature suddenly rises, condensation may
occur on the lenses resulting in picture distortion or color
fading. In such a case, simply wait a while (with the power
on) and the condensation will evaporate.
• Avoid displaying stationary images on your TV screen for
extended periods of time. Stationary patterns generated by a
picture-in-picture (PIP) display, 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
PIP, Multi-Window, computer, or video game display
unattended.
• Sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV. Sitting too
far to the left or right of the screen will cause the picture to
appear dull as will direct sunlight and room lights. Turn the
TV off to check for reflections on the screen. Then remove
the source of any reflections while viewing.
Cleaning your TV
• Clean the TV with a soft, dry cloth. Never use strong solvents
such as thinner or benzine which might damage the finish of
the cabinet. If the cabinet is very dirty, use a damp cloth to
wipe the cabinet clean, then finish with a dry cloth.

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

Note:
For the highest possible picture quality from
a non-ColorStream DVD player/satellite
receiver, you must use an S-video cable
between the TV and DVD player/satellite
receiver. (If your DVD player or satellite
receiver is ColorStream-compatible, see
page 8).
Do not connect both an S-video cable and a
regular video cable between the TV and
DVD player/satellite receiver at the same
time. Doing so will distort the picture.
Do not connect the DVD player/satellite
receiver and VCR to the same video channel
on the TV. (See the illustrations, which show
the DVD player/satellite receiver connected to
Video-1 and the VCR connected to Video-2.)

while watching a program from another source.
Your TV has ColorStream component video inputs. Connecting your
TV to a ColorStream-compatible DVD player (such as a Toshiba
ColorStream-equipped DVD player) can greatly enhance picture
quality and realism.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• three pairs of audio cables (two single and one pair of audio cables
for a mono VCR)
• two video cables
• one set of ColorStream video cables (one S-video cable for a
non-ColorStream DVD player; see notes at right)
Note:
For the highest possible picture quality, you
must use ColorStream video cables between
the TV and DVD player. You can connect the
ColorStream cables from the DVD player to
to either ColorStream jack on the TV (HD1 or
HD2).
If your DVD player is not ColorStreamcompatible, use the S-video connections
(both audio and video) instead of the
ColorStream connections. (Be aware,
however, that a ColorStream connection
provides higher picture quality than an
S-video connection.) Do not connect both
S-Video and ColorStream cables between the
TV and DVD player at the same time.
To record from the DVD player, set the VCR
to Line IN. To monitor recording from the
DVD player, set the VCR to Line IN, and set
the TV to Video-1.

volume of both the TV and the amplifier must be set
above 0 (zero). If the volume of one is set to 0, you will
not be able to hear any sound, even the volume of the
other is at its highest setting.
Connecting an A/V receiver
This connection allows you to use an audio/video (A/V)
receiver to enhance your TV’s sound.
®
If you have a system with Dolby Pro Logic
use the TV’s internal speakers as center channel speakers, which will
add to the realism of the sound.
You will need:
• one pair of audio cables
• one single audio cable for the audio center channel
• one video cable

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, your remote control
is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands
of VCRs and/or converters, you must first program your remote
control (see “Programming the remote control for use with a VCR or
your TV
a cable TV converter” on page 12).
