completely, and keep it nearby for future reference.
It Makes A Difference
Where Your TV Stands
Safety Precautions
Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy
your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:
WARNING
The Issue
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
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.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).
NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER
SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
Toshiba Cares!
The lightning symbol in the triangle tells you that the
voltage inside this product may be strong enough to
cause an electric shock. DO NOT TRY TO SERVICE
THIS PRODUCT YOURSELF.
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.
The exclamation mark in the triangle tells you that
important operating and maintenance instructions
follow this symbol.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not
use the polarized plug with an extension cord,
receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be
inserted completely to prevent blade exposure.
NOTE TO CATV INSTALLERS
Tune Into Safety
This is a reminder to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry
as practical. For additional antenna grounding information,
see items 25 and 26 on page 4.
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!
NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECTS
ON TV PICTURE TUBE
If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the TV
screen for long periods of time, the image can become
permanently ingrained in the picture tube. This type of
damage is NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.

For better performance and safer operation of your TOSHIBA
TV, follow these recommendations and precautions:
34)
27) Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and
as directly in front of it as possible. The picture can appear

sunlight or room lights reflect on the screen. Turn the TV
off to check for reflections on the screen, and then remove
the source of reflections while viewing the TV.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK! Never attempt to service the
TV yourself. Opening and
removing the covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to a
Toshiba Authorized Service Center.
QUALIFIED
SERVICE
TECHNICIAN
35) If you have the TV serviced:
• Ask the service technician to use only replacement parts
specified by the manufacturer.
• Upon completion of service, ask

Connecting your TV
Welcome to
Toshiba
• 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 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 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 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.
Connecting
your TV
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 (sometimes 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.

which case, it is suggested that you use the
original remote control for the applicable
device.
Welcome to
Toshiba
With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR and DVD
player models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are
different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR or
DVD player, your remote control is already programmed and ready to
use. If you own different brands of VCRs, DVD players and/or converters, you first have to program your remote control. (See “Programming
the remote control to operate your other devices” on page 12.)
Caution:
2. Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on the
batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
Using the
Remote Control
3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.
Notes:
• Be sure to use AAA size batteries.
• Dispose of batteries in a designated
disposal area.
• Attention should be drawn to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
• Do not mix different battery types or
combine used batteries with new ones.
• 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 be
using the remote control for a long time,
remove the batteries to prevent battery acid
from leaking into the battery compartment.
Connecting
your TV
• Never throw batteries into a fire.
