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.
NOTICE: RISK OF

Do not plug in any power cords
until you have finished connecting
all equipment.

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 from one source while watching a
program from another source. Your TV is capable of using ColorStream
(component video). Connecting your TV to a component video compat-
ible DVD player, such as a Toshiba DVD player with ColorStream®, can
greatly enhance picture quality and performance.
You will need:
• two coaxial cables
• one set of standard A/V 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.
