Installing Your TV Set

Where to install

Place the "IV on the floor or on a sturdy platform.

The mounting surface should be flat and steady.

Lighting

Do not place the TV in a room where direct lighting

strikes the screen. Use soft and indirect lighting.

=.-

Air circulation

Place the TV far enough from the walls to allow

proper ventilation. This will prevent the TV from

overheating and avoid possible damage to the TV.

Avoid dusty places too.

Power supply

Plug into an electrical outlet with standard house-

hold power (120 volt AC, 60Hz). Do not change the

plug's safety prong. See the right column.

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 :

As a safety feature, the plug has one prong wider

than the other. It will fit only one way into a stand-

ard electrical outlet. If the plug will not fit into the

outlet, try turning it around. If the plug will not fit

either way, the outlet is probably old and non-

standard.

You will need to

have a new outlet Wide prong

installed by an

electrician.

DO NOT CHANGE

FEATURE OF THE

PLUG.

Channels 2 - 13 are VHF channels, and channels 14 - 69 are UHF channels.

We recommend using an outdoor antenna for better picture quality.

Before Using the Remote Control

With this Remote Control, you can operate your TV and

most mode!s of remote-controlled VCR's and Cable TV

converters even if they are different brands.

However, this Remote Control must first be programmed

to control otherJ_rands of VCR's and/or Converters. If

you will be .using your TV set with a TOSHIBA VCR, your

Remote has already been preprogrammed for you.

• Before attempting to operate your Remote Control,

install the batteries according to the section "To install

batteries" shown below.

• For more detailed instructions, see the section "Pro-

gramming the Remote Control" on page 11.

Notes:

• After installing new batteries, the Remote Control will

set itself to the codes for TOSHIBA's TV and VCR. If

you are using the Remote Control to operate equip-

ment that uses different codes, it will have to be

reprogrammed for those codes.

• This Remote Control may have functions not available

on the original remote controller.

• These functions may or may not operate your VCR or

Cable "IV Converter. Refer to the owner's manuals

supplied with the equipment to see which functions

are available.

• The remote controller supplied with your VCR or cable

"IV converter may ha_/e keys not duplicated on this

Remote Control. If these functions are desired, the

original remote controller will have to be used.

Place the Remote Control with the face down. Press

down on the ridged area of the battery cover and

slide it off. ,

Press and slide to remove.

Place two "AA" size batteries, matching the + and -

signs on each battery to the + and - signs of the

battery compartment.

Replace the battery cover until the lock snaps.

CAUTION:

• Do not throw your batteries into a fire. Dispose of your

batteries in a designated disposal area.

• Do not combine used old batteries with new ones.

• Do not mix battery types.

Tips for Best Operation

• For optimum performance, aim the Remote Control

directly at the "IV from a distance of no more than 16 ft

(5m) and be sure there is no obstruction between the

Remote Control and the TV.

• If your Remote Control does not always adjust the "IV

as you wish, you probably need to replace the

batteries.

• 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 period, remove the batteries.

Number

For future reference, write the code

you used. ..

VCR CODE:

CABLE CODE:

1 Refer to the "VCR code table" (or "Cable TV converter code table')

on pages 12 and 13 to find the code' number that corresponds to the

brand name of your VCR (or converter).

If more than one number is listed, try each one separately until you

find the one that works.

2 Set the TV/CABLE/VCR switch to "VCR" (or "CABLE").

Hold down RECALL while pressing the Number buttons for the three

Notes:

• You have to reprogram the Remote Control when you change its

batteries.

• Some newer VCR's are capable of working on either of two remote

codes. These VCR's have a switch labeled "VCR1NCR2".

If your VCR has this kind of switch, and does not respond to all the

code numbers for your VCR brand name, set the switch to another

position ("VCR1" or "VCR2") and reprogram the Remote Control.
