Important notes about your LCD
TV
To Display your LCD TV on the included Pedestal
Stand:
Observe the following safety precautions:
1) Read and Follow the pedestal assembly instructions included
with the pedestal.
The following symptoms are technical limitations of LCD
Display technology and are not an indication of malfunction;
therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for perceived issues
resulting from these symptoms.
1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a fixed, non-
moving image is displayed for a long period of time. The
afterimage is not permanent and will disappear in a short period
of time.
2) The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using an
extremely high level of precision technology; however, there
may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate
properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.). This is a
structural property of LCD technology, is not a sign of
malfunction, and is not covered under your warranty. Such
pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal
viewing distance.
CAUTION: Before beginning pedestal assembly, carefully lay
the front of the LCD Panel face down on a flat, cushioned
surface such as a quilt or blanket. Leave the bottom of the unit
protruding over the edge of the surface and assemble pedestal
as indicated below.
Note: Extreme care should always be used when attaching
the pedestal stand to avoid damage to the LCD panel.
2) Place the TV on a sturdy, level surface that can support the
weight of the TV.
3) Be sure to secure the TV to a wall, pillar, surface, or other
immovable structure. To secure the TV in this manner, use the
included strap located at the rear of the pedestal stand. (-item
20, page 3).
Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a “gun”
type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work with this
TV.
To Display your LCD TV using a Wall Bracket:
If you decide to wall mount your LCD TV, always use a UL-
listed wall bracket appropriate for the size and weight of the
LCD TV (- page 2) :
1) CAUTION: Two people are required for installation.
2) Unplug and remove any cables and/or other component

connectors from the rear of the TV.
3) Follow the instructions provided with your wall bracket.
Before proceeding, make sure the appropriate bracket(s) are
attached to the wall and the back of the TV as described in the
instructions provided with the wall bracket.
4) After attaching the appropriate bracket(s) to the wall and the
back of the TV, remove the pedestal stand from the TV as
described below.

Removing the Pedestal Stand
1) Carefully lay the front of the unit face down on a flat,
cushioned surface such as a quilt or blanket. Leave the stand
protruding over the edge of the surface.
Note: Extreme care should always be used when removing
the pedestal stand to avoid damage to the LCD panel.
2) Remove the jack pack cover on the back of the TV to expose
the pedestal stand screws. The jack pack cover can be removed
without tools.
3) Remove the five screws shown in the diagram below. This will
allow removal of the pedestal stand.
4) Once you have removed all five screws holding the pedestal
stand in place, remove the pedestal stand from the TV by
sliding the pedestal stand away from the TV.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
HDMI™ cable
Overview of cable types
Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video
devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of connector
types required by your devices and the length of each cable.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use
with devices with an HDMI output. An HDMI cable delivers
digital audio and video in its native format. This cable carries
both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio
cables are not required for a complete HDMI device
connection (- page 15).
Coaxial (F-type) cable
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a
standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna,
cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT input
on your TV.
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC to
the TV’s PC IN terminal (- page 16).
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of
three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio and
composite video output. These cables (and the related inputs
on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow
for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left
(or mono) audio.
About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your
TV in several different configurations. The connection
illustrations in this manual are representative of typical device
connections only. The input/output terminals on your devices
may differ from those illustrated herein. For details on
connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each
device’s owner’s manual.
S-video cable
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video
output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete
connection.
Connecting an antenna or cable TV
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance
than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable,
be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or
the picture performance will be unacceptable.
This connection allows you to watch TV programs or basic
cable channels.
From antenna or cable
TV lower back panel
Component video cables (red/green/blue)
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use
with video devices with component video output.
(ColorStream® is Toshiba’s brand of component video.) These
cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate
audio cables are required for a complete connection.
Note: Component video cables provide better picture
performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video
cable.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Programming the remote control
to operate your other devices
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate
most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to
operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not
preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details
on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 19.
1
2
In the remote control code table (- page 22), find the
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try
each one separately until you find one that works.
Set the MODE SELECT Switch to the type of device you
are programming the remote control to operate —
CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite
receiver), DVD (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater
in a box]), or VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo).
3
4
While holding down E, press the Channel Number
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote
control at it, and press p. (Also see notes below.)
• If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.
• If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using
another code.
• If the device does not respond to another code, you will
need to use the device’s original remote control.
5
6
Remember to set the MODE SELECT Switch back to
“TV” to control the TV.
For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:
DEVICE
CODE
DEVICE
CODE
Note:
• In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the
TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not
operational, repeat the device code setup using another
code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying
all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your
device, use the device’s original remote control.
• Every time you change the batteries, you will need to
reprogram the remote control.
• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These
VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has
this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”
or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

In some cases you may not be able to
operate your device with the TV
remote control. Your other device may
use a code that is not recognized by the
TV remote control. If this happens, use
the device’s remote control.

Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features
Note: A closed caption signal may not display in the following
situations:
Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts
The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to
output high-fidelity stereo sound. MTS also can transmit a
second audio program (SAP) containing a second language,
music, or other audio information (when provided by
individual analog stations).
• When a videotape has been dubbed
• When the signal reception is weak
• When the signal reception is non-standard
The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO
mode. When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the
word “STEREO” or “SAP” appears on-screen when E is
pressed.
Closed Caption Reception Adjustment
If reception is weak, the picture may appear blurred, and
captions or text may not appear clearly on the screen. In this
case, use this function to make them appear clearer.

• You can leave the MTS feature in Stereo mode and it
will automatically output the type of sound being
broadcast (stereo or monaural).
• If the stereo sound is noisy, select Mono to reduce the
noise.
Adjusting the audio
To listen to a second audio program on an analog
station (if available):
Select SAP in step 3 above.
Muting the sound
Press W to partially reduce (1/2 MUTE) or turn off (MUTE)
the sound. Each time you press W, the mute mode will change
in the following order:
Note:
• A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those
TV stations that offer it. For example, a station might
broadcast another language as a second audio program. If
you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the
screen but hear the other language instead of the program’s
normal audio.
• If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not
broadcasting a second audio program, the station’s normal
audio will be output. However, occasionally there is no
sound at all in SAP mode. If this happens, set the MTS
feature to Stereo mode.

If the closed caption mode is set to Off when you select

information on closed caption modes.

Chapter 7: Troubleshooting
Poor color or no color
General troubleshooting
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• Adjust the Tint and/or Color (- page 35).
Before calling a service technician, please check this section
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you can
try.
Poor composite or S-video picture
• If the poor picture occurs when the TV is connected to an
external A/V device (e.g., DVD player, video game
system, set-top box, etc.) try using a ColorStream or
HDMI video connection instead.
Black box on screen
• The Closed Caption feature is set to one of the Text
modes (T1, T2, T3, or T4). Set the Closed Caption
feature to Off (- page 37).
Picture and sound are out of sync
• As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare
instances, when viewing certain content (e.g.. television
broadcasts, video games, DVDs), you may notice that the
sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This
phenomenon can be caused by various factors including,
without limitation, video processing within the TV, video
processing in an attached gaming system, and video
processing or different compression rates used by
broadcasters in their programming. You may want to try
one or more of the following suggestions, which may
help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:
– If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a
programmable audio delay feature, use this feature
to help synchronize the sound to the picture.
– If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV
channels, please contact your local broadcast,
cable, or satellite provider to inform them of this
issue.
TV will not turn on
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press
p.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries or try the control panel buttons.
Picture problems
General picture problems
• Check the antenna/cable connections (- page 10).
• Press + on the remote control or INPUT on the TV
control panel and select a valid video input source
(- page 30). If no device is connected, no picture will
display when you select that particular input source. For
device connection details, see page 10.
• Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional
outdoor antenna (if applicable).
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• Adjust the picture qualities (- page 35).
• If you are using a VCR, make sure L on the remote
control is set correctly (- page 19).
• Do not connect both a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to the VIDEO-2 inputs at the same time
(- page 12).
Sound problems
• Check the antenna/cable connections (- page 10).
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.
• If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to
Stereo mode (- page 38).
• If you are not receiving a second audio program from a
known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set to
SAP mode (- page 38).
• If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program
you are watching (such as music or a foreign language),
the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo
mode (- page 38).
Noisy picture
• If you are watching a tuned analog channel (off-air
broadcast or Cable TV), set the CableClear®/DNR
feature to Auto to reduce visible interference in the TV
