Introduction

This manual applies to models CE27T11, CE32T11 and CE36T11, and there are slight differences among them.

The CE32T11 is the model used for illustration purposes. Instructions in this manual are based on using the Remote Control. Check the model of your TV before using this manual.

Exploring your new TV

You can operate your TV using the buttons on the front panel or the Remote Control.

The back panel provides all the terminal connections you will need to connect other equipment to your TV. Model CE27T11 is not equipped with an S-VIDEO IN jack.

Selecting a location for the TV

●Place the TV on the floor or on a sturdy platform in a location where light does not directly hit the screen.

●Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow proper ventilation. Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which may damage the TV.

WARNING

To avoid personal injury:

●Do not stand or climb on the TV.

●Do not put a VCR or any heavy object on top of the TV.

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 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.

Connecting Your TV

If you haven’t 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.

Connecting a VCR

This connection allows you to watch local channels and video programs, play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and to record from one channel while watching another channel.

Note:

The VIDEO 2 jacks can also be used for connecting a second piece of video equipments, such as a DVD, laser disc player and camcorder etc. with audio/video outputs. See page 7 for one example.

Connecting a cable converter box

This connection allows you to watch cable and premium channels. Tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area), then use the converter box to change channels.

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” on page 11.)

Preparation

Reference Section Advanced Operation Basic Operation

Installing the Remote Control batteries

1 Slide the battery cover off of the back of the Remote Control.

Press and slide to remove.

2 Install two “AA” size 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.

Caution:

●Dispose of your batteries in a designated disposal area. Do not throw your 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.

Note:

This Remote Control’s functions may or may not operate your VCR or cable TV converter.

Refer to the owner’s manuals supplied with the equipment to see which features are available. In addition, the original controllers may have features not available on this Remote Control. If you would like to continue to use these features, you may want to use the original remote control.
