InstallingyourTV
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.
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 ifyou 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
PIP/double-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 useyour TV to display still images, reduce brightness and
contrast settings. Never leavea PIP/double-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. "Ihrn the
TV off to check for reflections on the screen. Then remove the source of any reflections while viewing.
CAUTION
The plug has one prong wider wideprong 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 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.
2
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.

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. (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. On the rear panel of the TV,
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 ®(component video) 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 _, 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)

Preparing the remote control for use
The remote control can operate the TV, most VCRs, 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. If you own
different brands ofVCRs and/or converters, you must first 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.
2. Install two "AA" size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
Note:
The TVremote 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. ffyour TV's remote control does not operate a
specific feature on a device, use the remote
control that came with the device.
Caution:
Disposeof batteries in a designated disposalarea. Do not throw batteriesinto a
fire.
Do not mix battery typesor combine used batterieswith new ones.
ffthe batteriesare dead orifyou willnot use the remote control for a long time, remove the batteriesto preventbattery acid from leaking into the battery compartment
Note:
Batterylife expectancyisabout one year with normal use.
.
Slide the battery cover back on to 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. If you own different brands of VCRs, program the remote control
to recognize your VCR brand (see "Programming the remote control for use with a non-Toshiba VCR or cable TV converter"
on page 13).
To control a Toshiba cable TV converter:
Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to the CABLE position. The shaded buttons shown in the top half of the illustration at right
will control the cable TV converter.

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 program the TV remote control to operate non-Toshiba VCRs or cable converters:
1. Refer to the "VCR code table" or "Cable TV converter code table" on pages 14-15 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 Channel Number buttons (0-9) to enter the three-digit code for your
VCR or 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 to the remote control, 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.
