Connecting your TV

if you have not connected electronic equipment before, or you have been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cables are not supplied.)

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

• Audio and video cables are usually color-coded according to use: yellow for video; red and white for audio. The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel; the white audio cable is for the stereo (or mono) left channel, if you look at the back panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.

NOTE REGARDING

PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment, such as a VCR or DVD player:

- For GOOD picture quality: Use regular video cables.

- For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video connections, use S-video cables instead of regular video cables.

- For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video connections (ColorStream

TM is Toshiba's brand), use component video cables instead of regular or S-video cables. Component video cables come in sets of three.

Note: Do not connect an S-video cable and a regular video cable to

VIDEO-1 (on the TV) at the same time. Doing so will distort the picture.
