Child Safety

It Makes A Difference

Where Your TV Stands

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

???If you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.

???The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.

???Sometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over, causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!

???The consumer electronics industry is committed to making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.

???The Consumer Electronics Association formed the Home Entertainment Support Safety Committee, comprised of TV and consumer electronics furniture

manufacturers, to advocate children???s safety and educate consumers and their families about television safety.

Tune Into Safety

???One size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large enough to support the weight of your

TV (and other electronic components).

???Use appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).

???Carefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

???Do not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.

???Avoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

???Remember that children can become excited while watching a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

???Share our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home with your family and friends. Thank you!

Welcome to

Welcome to Toshiba

Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest color TVs on the market. The goal of this manual is to guide you through setting up and operating your Toshiba TV as quickly as possible.

You may need to purchase other audio or video cables to connect your equipment. See ???Connecting your TV??? on page 7 for more information.

Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully before you begin.

Exploring your new TV

You can operate your TV by using the buttons on the front panel or the remote control. The front and back panels provide all the inputs you will need to connect other equipment to your TV.

VIDEO 1

TV back panel

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.

6

Connecting your TV

???A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use ???F??? connectors.

???Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded accord- ing 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 left (or mono) 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.

???An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a standard video cable. S-video cables can only be used with S-video compatible components.

???Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the best picture performance. Component video cables can only be used with component video compatible components.

Connecting your TV

Connecting a cable converter box

This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some cable companies offer ???premium pay channels??? in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable company.

For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.

For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/ Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/ Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels

If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/ Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (some- times called a ???two-set coupler???) and an A/B Switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the ???B??? position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the ???A??? position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.

Note:

When you use a converter box with your TV, there may be features that you cannot program using the remote control, such as labeling channels, blocking channels, and programming your favorite channels.

Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream?? (component video) and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch DVD, VCR, or TV programs and record TV programs. You can record one TV channel while watching another channel or a DVD. Your TV is capable of using ColorStream (component video). Connecting your TV to a component video compatible DVD player, such as a Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream??, can greatly enhance picture quality and performance.

Note:

You can use a standard video cable instead of the S-video cable, but the picture quality will decrease. If you use an S-video cable between the TV and DVD player/satellite receiver, make the audio connections only and remove the standard video cable.

You will need:

???two coaxial cables

???one set of component video cables

???one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

The ColorStream inputs on this TV are for use with devices that output 480i interlaced signals ONLY. This TV will not accept or display 480p or 720p progressive scan signals or 1080i interlaced high-definition signals. If you connect a high-definition set- top receiver, 480p progressive scan DVD player, or other similar device to the TV???s ColorStream inputs, YOU MUST SWITCH THE DEVICE???S OUTPUT TO 480i INTER- LACED MODE FIRST. Failure to do this will cause a poor picture or no picture to display.

The unauthorized recording, use, distribution or revision of television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal liability.

This type of

damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR

WARRANTY. See page 4 for details.
