A polarized alternating current line plug — having one blade wider than
the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you
are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
A product and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the product
and cart combination to overturn.
Une fiche de courant alternatif polarisée est une fiche qui a une lame plus
large que l’autre. Ce type de fiche ne rentre dans la prise d’électricité
que d’une seule manière. Si vous ne parvenez pas à insérer cette fiche
dans la prise, essayez dans le sens inverse.
Lorsqu’un chariot est utilisé pour
transporter le produit, le déplacer
avec précaution. Le chariot et le
produit peuvent être renversés en
cas d’arrêt subit, de mouvement
excessif et de surface non nivelée.
Alternate Warnings — A three-wire grounding-type plug — a plug
having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into grounding-
type power outlet.
Avertissements alternatifs — Ce téléviseur est équipé d’une fiche à
trois broches, c’est-à-dire d’une fiche avec une broche de terre. Cette
fiche ne rentre que dans une prise d’alimentation avec mise à la terre.
USE / UTILISATION
Overloading — Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or
convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can result in
fire or electric shock.
Water and Moisture — Do not use the TV set near water — for
example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a
wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the like.
Surcharge — Ne pas surcharger les prises murales, les cordons
prolongateurs ou les raccords au-delà de leur capacité pour ne pas
provoquer d’incendie ou d’électrocution.
Eau et humidité — Ne pas utiliser ce téléviseur à proximité de l’eau —

bottom are provided for necessary ventilation. Never block or cover
these slots and openings to ensure reliable operation of the TV set and
to protect it from overheating.
Pendant un orage, ou quand vous prévoyez de ne pas utiliser le
téléviseur pendant une longue période, débranchez le cordon
d’alimentation de la prise murale ainsi que l’antenne ou le câble. Ceci a
pour but d’éviter les dommages que pourrait causer la foudre ou les
pointes subites de tension.
Ventilation — Les fentes et ouvertures du coffret, à l’arrière ou sous le
téléviseur servent pour la ventilation. Pour garantir un bon
fonctionnement et éviter toute surchauffe interne du téléviseur, ne
jamais bloquer ou couvrir ces fentes et ouvertures.
a. Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.
a. Ne jamais recouvrir les fentes et ouvertures d’un tissu ou autre materiel.
Object and Liquid Entry — Never push objects of any kind into the
TV set through the cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous voltage
points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the TV set.
b. Never block the slots and openings by placing the TV set on a bed,
sofa, rug or other similar surface.
b. Ne jamais bloquer les fentes et ouvertures en installant le téléviseur
sur un lit, sofa, couverture, ou tout autre surface similaire.
Pénétration de liquide ou d’objet — Ne jamais laisser pénétrer aucun
objet dans ce téléviseur, car il risquerait de toucher des éléments soumis
à une tension dangereuse ou de court-circuiter des pièces, ce qui
pourrait provoquer un incendie ou une électrocution. Ne jamais
répandre de liquide sur ce téléviseur.
c. Never place the TV set in a confined space such as a bookcase, built-
in cabinet, or any other place of poor ventilation.
c. Ne jamais installer ce téléviseur dans un espace clos, comme une
bibliothèque, un placard mural ou tout autre endroit où la
ventilation est insuffisante.
Cleaning — Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet before cleaning or
polishing it. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a cloth
lightly dampened with water for cleaning the exterior of the TV set.
Heat — Do not place the TV set near or over a radiator or heat
register, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
Nettoyage — Débranchez le téléviseur de la prise murale avant de le
nettoyer ou de le polir. Ne pas utiliser de produits de nettoyage liquides
ou de produits en vaporisateur. Utilisez un chiffon légèrement mouillé
pour nettoyer l’extérieur du téléviseur.
Chaleur — Ne pas installer le téléviseur près ou audessus d’une source
de chaleur, telle qu’un radiateur, un chauffage ou en plein soleil.
Power-Cord Protection — Do not allow anything to rest on or roll
over the power cord, and do not place the TV set where the power cord
is subject to wear or abuse.
Attachments — Never add accessories that have not been specifically
designed for the TV set. Never remodel the TV set by yourself as this
can result in a fire hazard or electric shock.
Protection du cordon d’alimentation — Ne rien laisser sur le cordon
ou ne rien faire rouler dessus. Ne pas installer le téléviseur dans un
endroit où le cordon pourrait être usé ou abîmé.
Fixations — Ne jamais ajouter d’accessoires non prévus spécialement
pour le téléviseur. N’effectuez jamais vous-même des modifications sur
le téléviseur pour éviter tout risque d’incendie ou d’électrocution.
Accessories — Do not place the TV set on an unstable cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table. The TV set may fall, causing serious injury to
a child or adult, and serious damage to the TV set. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or
sold with the TV set, and should use a mounting accessory recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
If a snapping or popping sound from a TV set is heard continuously or
frequently while the TV set is operated, unplug the TV set and consult your
dealer or service technician. It is normal for some TV sets to make occasional
snapping or popping sounds, particularly when being turned on or off.
Si le téléviseur produit un bruit sec et prolongé ou fréquent quand il est
en marche, débranchez-le et adressez-vous à votre revendeúr ou à un
réparateur. Avec certains téléviseurs, ce genre de bruits occasionnel est
normal surtout à la mise sous ou hors tension.
Accessoires — Ne pas poser le téléviseur sur un chariot, support,
trépied, console ou table instable. Le téléviseur pourrait tomber et
causer des blessures importantes à un enfant ou un adulte. En outre il
pourrait être sérieusement endommagé. Utilisez le téléviseur
uniquement avec un chariout, support, trépied, console ou table
recommandé par le fabricant, ou vendu avec le téléviseur, et n’utilisez,
en cas de montage, que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant.

SERVICE / RÉPARATION
ANTENNA / ANTENNE
Damage Requiring Service — Unplug the TV set from the wall outlet and
Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outdoor antenna is installed,
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
follow the precautions below.
Dommages exigeant une réparation — Débranchez le téléviseur de la
prise murale et faites appel à un réparateur qualifié dans les cas suivants:
An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where
it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits.
a. When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
a. Le cordon d’alimentation ou la prise est endommagée ou usée.
WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM,
EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM
CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS
CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL.
b. When liquid has been spilled into the TV set.
b. Du liquide a été répandu sur le téléviseur.
c. When the TV set has been exposed to rain or water.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some
protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section
810 of the National Electrical Code in the USA and Section 54 of the
Canadian Electrical Code in Canada provides information with respect
to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding
of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
c. Le téléviseur a été exposé à la pluie ou à l’eau.
d. When the TV set has been subject to excessive shock by being
dropped, or the cabinet has been damaged.
d. Le téléviseur est tombé et a subi un choc violent, ou le coffret a été
endommagé.
e. When the TV set does not operate normally even though you follow
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are specified
in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a
qualified technician to restore the TV set to normal operation.
When the TV set exhibits a distinct change in performance. This
indicates a need for service.
e. Le téléviseur ne fonctionne pas normalement bien que vous respectiez
les instructions du mode d’emploi. Faites uniquement les réglages
indiqués dans le mode d’emploi, car tout autre réglage risque de
provoquer des dommages qui nécessiteront des réparations
supplémentaires pour que le téléviseur fonctionne de nouveau
normalement.
Mise à la terre de l’antenne extérieure — Si vous installez une antenne
extérieure, veuillez respecter les précautions ci-dessous.
Une antenne extérieure ne doit pas être installée près de lignes électriques
aériennes ou autres circuits d’alimentation ou d’éclairage électriques, ou
dans un endroit où elle pourrait toucher de tels circuits ou lignes.
LORS DE L’INSTALLATION D’UNE ANTENNE EXTÉRIEURE,
SOYEZ EXTRÊMEMENT PRUDENT POUR ÉVITER DE
TOUCHER DE TELS CIRCUITS OU LIGNES ÉLECTRIQUES,
CAR UN TEL CONTACT ENTRAINE PRATIQUEMENT
TOUJOURS LA MORT.
Quand le téléviseur n’offre plus les mêmes performances, une révision
est aussi nécessaire.
L’antenne doit être reliée à la terre par mesure de sécurité contre les
hausses brusques de tension et l’électricité statique accumulée. La
section 810 du National Electrical Code aux Etats-Unis et la section 54
du Code électrique du Canada fournissent des informations sur le
raccordement à la terre correct du mât et de la structure porteuse, le
raccordement de la descente d’antenne à une unité de décharge
d’antenne, la taille des conducteurs de mise à la terre, l’emplacement de
l’unité de décharge d’antenne, la connexion aux électrodes de terre, et
les spécifications desélectrodes de terre.
Servicing — Do not attempt to service the TV set yourself. To open or
remove the covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other
hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Réparation — N’essayez pas de réparer vous-même le téléviseur. L’ouverture et
le retrait des panneaux peut exposer à une tension dangereuse ou à d’autres
dangers. Faites toujours appel à un réparateur compétent.
Replacement Parts — When replacement parts are required, be sure
the service technician certifies in writing that he has used replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer that have the same characteristics as
the original parts. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.
Pièces de rechange — Lorsque des pièces doivent être remplacées,
demandez au réparateur qu’il vous garantisse par écrit qu’il a utilisé les
pièces spécifiées par la fabricant et ayant les mêmes caractéristiques que
les pièces d’origine. Des substitutions non autorisées peuvent être cause
d’incendie, électrocution ou tout autre accident.
Safety Check — Upon completion of any service or repairs to the TV
set, ask the service technician to perform routine safety checks (as
specified by the manufacturer) to determine that the TV set is in safe
operating condition, and to so certify.
Contrôle de sécurité — Après tout entretien ou toute réparation,
demandez au réparateur d’effectuer des contrôles de sécurité (comme
prescrit par le fabricant), pour voir si le téléviseur fonctionne
normalement, et de vous le certifier.
When the TV set reaches the end of its useful life, improper disposal
could result in a picture tube implosion. Ask a qualified service
technician to dispose of the TV set.
Quand le téléviseur est devenu inutilisable, ne pas le déposer n’importe
où afin d’éviter une implosion du tube. Demandez à un réparateur
compétent où vous devez le déposer.

Caution:
The plug has one prong wider than the other
and will fit only one way into a standard
electrical outlet (120 volt AC, 60 Hz). If the
plug does not fit into the outlet, try turning it
around. If the plug still does not fit, the outlet
is probably non-standard and must be
replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not
tamper with the plug or try to force it
into a non-standard outlet.
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 ventila-
tion. Inadequate ventilation may cause overheating, which may
damage the TV.

Connecting your TV
If you haven’t 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 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 (or mono) left 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.
• S-video cables provide better picture performance. S-video cables
can only be used with S-video compatible components.
• ColorStreamTM cables come in sets of three and provide the best
picture performance. ColorStream cables can only be used with
ColorStream compatible components.

Using the remote control
Note:
Preparing the remote control for use
This remote control’s functions may or may
not operate your VCR or cable TV converter.
Refer to the owner’s manuals supplied with
the equipment to see which features are
available. In addition, the original controllers
may have features not available on this
remote control. If you would like to continue
to use these features, you may want to use
the original remote control.
With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most VCR
models, and cable TV converters together, even if they are different
brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba VCR, your
remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own
different brands of VCRs and/or converters, you first have to program
your remote control. (See “Programming the remote control for use
with a VCR or a cable TV converter” on page 8.)
Installing the remote control batteries
To install the batteries:
Caution:
1. Slide the battery cover off of the back of the remote control.
• Dispose of your batteries in a designated
disposal area. Do not throw your batteries
into a fire.
• Do not mix battery types or combine used
batteries with new ones.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to
prevent battery acid from leaking into the
battery compartment.
• If you do not intend to use the remote
control for a long time, remove the
batteries.
2. Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs
on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

Appendix
Cleaning and care
WARNING:
TV sets use high voltage. Do not try to remove the cabinet back. Refer servicing to qualified service technicians.
To clean the TV screen:
1. Unplug the TV to avoid possible shock hazard.
2. Use a clean cellulose sponge or chamois cloth dampened with a solution of mild detergent and warm water
to clean the TV screen and trim. Do not use too much water because water spills into the cabinet can cause
damage to the TV.
3. Wipe off any excess moisture with a clean dry cloth.
4. Polish the cabinet with a quality furniture polish to maintain the finish and appearance of the cabinet.
Caution:
Never use strong solvents such as thinner, benzene, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet. These chemicals can damage the finish
of the cabinet.
