__[_1 INTRODUCTION

Installation

• Downward spot lights or fluorescent lights in an
overhead "Honeycomb" prevent direct
illumination of the screen.

Usecurtains or
blindsto shutout

direct sunlight.

Covershiny surfaces(floor and walls) with non-
reflective materials (carpet, rugs, wallpaper, etc.).

Where to install

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.

Air Circulation
Place the TV far enough away from the walls to allow proper
ventilation. This will prevent the "IV from overheating and avoid
possible damage to the "IV. Avoid dusty places too.

Heat Damage
Damage may occur if you leave the "IV in direct sunlight or near
a heater. Avoid places subject to extremely high temperatures
or humidity, and temperatures of 41°F (5°C) or lower.

Power Supply
Plug the TV into an electrical outlet with standard household
power (120 volt AC, 60 Hz). Do not change the plug's safety
prong.
See page 2.

Moisture Condensation
If the room temperature suddenlyrises (or if the TV is moved
from a cool placeto a hot place), condensation may occur on
the lenses resultingin picturedistortion or color fading: In such
a case,simply wait a while (with the power on) and the
condensationwill evaporate.

Best Viewing

Sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the "IV. 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.

Antenna/Cable TV

Connections

* You can use either an indoor or outdoor antenna to receive VHF and UHF channels.
o Channels 2-13 are VHF channels, and channels 14-69 are UHF channels.

• We recommend using an outdoor antenna for better picture quality.

• Y,_u can receive Cable "IV by connecting the cable supplied by your local cable

company.

Types of antenna cables

Shown below aretwo basictypes of antenna cables.
Signalsfrom a home antenna may be conveyed by either type. Cable"IV
signalsare conveyedby a 75 ohm coaxial cable,

A 75 ohm coaxial cable is generally a round cable with F-type
connectors that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools.

There are two separate 75 ohm F-type connector input terminals and a

converter output terminal as shown at the left.

The ANT-1 and ANT-2 terminals are for connecting a VHF/UHF antenna

or cable TV system. The signal input through ANT-1 is output from the
OUT terminal whenever the RF switch on the "IV is in the ANT-2 position,

You can switch between the ANT-1 and ANT-2 inputs in the ANT 1/2

menu or with the ANT/VIDEO button on the TV. See page 21.

Antenna/Cable TV

Connections (continued,

Generally, the cable "IV system can be connected directly to the TV's antenna terminal just like a home antenna.
(A-l)

Some cable companies, however, offer premium pay channels. Since premium pay channel signals are scrambled, a
cable TV converter/decoder is generally provided to subscribers by the cable TV company. This decoder box is
necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. We recommend that you consult your cable TV company for
more specific instructions on installing cable TV. (A-2)

_ INTRODUCTION

Before Using the Remote

Control

With this Remote Control, you can operate your "IV and most VCR and cable box models regardless of the

manufacturer. However, this Remote Control must first be programmed to control other VCR and cable box brands.
See page 15.
If you have a TOSHIBA VCR, your Remote Control has already been programmed for you.
Before attempting to operate your Remote Control, install the batteries according to "To install the batteries" below.

Notes:

• After installing new batteries, the Remote Control will set itself to the codes for TOSHIBA'I'Vs and VCRs. If you are

using the Remote Control to operate other manufacturer's equipment, you will have to reprogram those codes.

• This Remote Control may have functions not available on your VCR and cable box remote controllers.
These functions may or may not operate your VCR or cable box. 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 box may have keys not duplicated on this Remote Control. If
you want to use these functions, please use the original remote controller.

To install the batteries

Place the Remote Control face down and remove
the battery cover•

Press and slide

to remove.

Insert two "AA" size alkaline batteries, matching

the + and - signs on each battery with the + and -

signs in the battery compartment.

CAUTIONS

• Donot throw your batteries into a fire. Disposeof

your batteries in a designateddisposal area.

• Donot combine used batteries with new ones,

• Donot mix battery types.

Tips for best operation

• For optimum performance, aim the Remote Control
directly at the TV from a distance within 16 feet (5 m),
and be sure there is no obstruction between the ,
Remote Control and the TV.

• If your Remote Control does not always operate the
IV as you wish, you probably need to replace the

batteries.Use alkaline batteries for longer use:

= If the Remote Control will not be used for a long

period of time or when the batteries are worn out,
remove the batteries to prevent leakage,

• Do not drop, dampen or disassemble the Remote
Control.

Slide the battery cover shut until the lock clicks.

_ INTRODUCTIOI_

Using the Remote with VCR

or Cable TV Converter

• To control a TOSHIBA VCR, first set the TV/CABLF_JVCRswitch to "VCR." The buttons shown below will then control

the VCR. The rest of the buttons operate the TV as usual.
If you have another brand of VCR, you can probably program the Remote Control to control it. Details are on page 15.

• To control a cable TV converter, this Remote Control must be programmed to recognize the brand of your converter.

See page 15. The shaded buttons can be used to control the cable TV converter.
Set the TV/CABLENCR switch to "CABLE" whenever you want to control the (}able TV converter.

Reset the TVICABLE/VCR switch to "'IV" to control the TV.

Notes:

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

codes. These VCRs have a switch labeled "VCR 1/VCR 2."

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

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

other position ("VCR 1" or "VCR 2") and reprogram the Remoti_

Control.

• In some rare cases, you may not be able to operate your non-

TOSHIBA equipment with the supplied Remote Control. This is
