CIRCUITOS, YA QUE TAL CONTACTO PODRÍA RESULTAR
INVARIABLEMENTE FATAL.
Cuando el funcionamiento del televisor haya cambiado
notablemente — esto indica la necesidad del servicio de reparación.

Selecting a location for the TV
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.
• 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.
The model number and serial number are on the back of your TV.
Record these numbers in the spaces below. Refer to these numbers
whenever you communicate with your Toshiba dealer about this TV.

Connecting your TV
If you haven’t connected electronic equipment before, or you have
been frustrated by it in the past, you may wish to read this section.
(Cables, switches and splitters 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
Preparing the remote control for use
Note:
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.)
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.
Installing the remote control batteries
To install the batteries:
1. Slide the battery cover off of the back of the remote control.
Caution:
• 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.
2. Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and - signs
on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
• If you do not intend to use the remote
control for a long time, remove the
batteries.

system to qualify motion picture content. Television broadcasters

as well. The MPAA, Youth TV and TV ratings work with the V-Chip
feature and allow you to block out programming above the rating
limits you determine.

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.
