outlet and check it.
If dust has collected on the power plug connectors,
clean off the dust with a dry cloth.

This dust may cause a fire due to reduced insulation on
the plug.

Getting started

Connecting an antenna

Optimum reception of color requires a good signal and will
generally mean that an outdoor antenna must be used.

The exact type and positioning of the antenna will depend upon
your particular area.

Your Toshiba dealer or service personnel can best advise you
on which antenna to use in your area.

Before connecting the antenna cable, turn off all main power
switches.

Exploring your new TV

Installing the remote control batteries

Remove the battery cover.

Insert two R03 (AAA) batteries matching the –/+ polarities of
the battery to the –/+ marks inside the battery compartment.

Cautions:

• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area. Never
throw batteries into a fire.

• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of
battery disposal.

• Never mix battery types or combine used batteries with new
ones.

Notes:

• If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the
operating range becomes reduced, replace both batteries
with new ones.

• If the batteries are dead or if you will not use the remote
control for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent
battery acid from leaking into the battery compartment.

Connecting an HDMI or DVI device

• When turning on your electronic components, turn on the
TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.

• When turning off your electronic components, turn off the
HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV.

• This TV may not be compatible with features and/or
specifications that may be added in the future.

• This TV is only operable with L-PCM on 32/44.1/48 kHz
and 16/20/24 bits. If there is no sound when using HDMI,
use the analog audio cables to connect the TV and the HDMI
device, and select Analog in HDMI1 audio of the AV
connection menu (- page 31).

• This TV is able to connect with HDMI devices. But it is
possible that some HDMI devices may not operate properly
with this TV.

Connecting an HDMI or DVI device

The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device or
uncompressed digital video from a DVI device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP program material in
digital from EIA/CEA-861/861D compliant consumer
electronic devices (such as a set top box or DVD player with
HDMI or DVI output).

The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i
(50 Hz/60 Hz) and 1080p (50 Hz/ 60 Hz) high-definition video
signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p,
720p (50 Hz/60 Hz) and VGA signals.

• HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface

• DVI: Digital Video Interface

• HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection

• EIA/CEA-861/861D compliance covers the transmission of
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, which is being standardized for
reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an
evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may
not operate properly with the TV.

• VGA: VESA 640 5 480 @ 60 Hz

• L-PCM: Linear-Pulse Code Modulation

Note:

Some of legacy HDMI sources may not work properly with your
latest HDMI TV, due to the adoption of a new standard. Please
try to disconnect your HDMI cable first and then to set Off the
following three options (Lip Sync, Deep Color, xvYCC). Your
legacy HDMI source should operate properly with your TV.
