Welcome to Toshiba  
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest color TVs on the  
market. The goal of this manual is to guide you through setting up and  
operating your Toshiba TV as quickly as possible.  
The STARTING SETUP feature appears  
the first time you turn on the TV. See page  
24 for details.  
You may need to purchase other audio or video cables to connect your  
equipment. See “Connecting your TV” on page 7 for more information.  
Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully before  
you begin.  
Exploring your new TV  
You can operate your TV by using the buttons on the front panel or the  
remote control. The front and back panels provide all the inputs you will  
need to connect other equipment to your 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.  
• Standard A/V (audio/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 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.  
• S-video cables provide better picture performance than standard  
video cables. S-video cables can only be used with S-video  
compatible components.  
Note:  
• Component video cables provide better picture performance than  
S-video cables. Component video cables can only be used with  
component video compatible components.  
To prevent equipment damage, do not plug in  
any power cords until you have finished  
connecting all equipment.  
• HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use with  
video equipment that has HDMI output (see page 14).

Note:  
If using a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to  
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.  
For better picture quality, if your VCR has S-  
video, you can use an S-video cable instead  
of the standard video cable. Do not connect a  
standard video cable and an S-video cable to  
VIDEO-1 (or VIDEO-2) simultaneously.

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 incoming 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/satellite receiver  
and a VCR  
You will need:  
• three coaxial cables  
• two sets of standard A/V cables  
• one S-video cable  
• one pair of standard audio cables  
This connection allows you to watch DVD/satellite, VCR, or TV  
programs. You can record from the satellite receiver and TV, as well as  
record one TV channel while watching another channel.  
Note:

You can use a standard video cable instead of  
the S-video cable, but the picture quality will  
decrease. If you use an S-video cable  
between the TV and DVD player/satellite  
receiver, make the audio connections but  
remove the standard video cable. Do not  
connect both an S-video and a standard  
video cable to VIDEO1 (or VIDEO2) at the  
same time or the picture performance will be  
unacceptable.

Connecting an HDMI™ or a DVI device to the HDMI input  
The HDMI[1] input on your TV receives digital audio and  
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device or  
uncompressed digital video from a DVI[2] device.  
[1] HDMI = High-Definition Multimedia Interface.  
[2] DVI = Digital Video Interface.  
[3] HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.  
[4] EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the  
transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-  
bandwidth digital content protection, which is being  
standardized for reception of high-definition video  
signals.  
This input is designed to accept HDCP[3] program material  
in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B– compliant[4]  
consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or  
DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).  
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with  
1080i high-definition video signals, but will also accept and  
display 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.  
Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible  
that some devices may not operate properly with the  
TV.  
Note: This TV is not intended for connection to and  
should not be used with a personal computer.  
To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset  
properly, it is recommended that you follow these  
procedures:  
• When turning on your electronic components, turn  
on the TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.  
• When turning off your electronic components, turn  
off the HDMI or DVI device first,and then the TV.  
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:  
• one HDMI cable (type A connector)  
For proper operation, it is recommended that you use  
a short HDMI cable. You should not encounter  
difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that is shorter than  
16.4ft (5m).  
To connect a DVI device, you will need:  
• one HDMI–to–DVI adapter cable  
(HDMI type A connector)  
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate  
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration  
below).  
For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI  
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The  
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).  
Note: you can connect the HDMI cable to either HDMI  
jacks on the TV (HDMI1 or HDMI2).  
• one pair of standard analog audio cables  
You must set the HDMI audio input setting to HDMI  
in the AUDIO menu (see page 44).  
An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers only video.  
Separate analog audio cables are required (see  
illustration below).  
Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio  
signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting  
analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for  
this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input  
setting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 44).  
Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio  
cables (as described in the previous paragraph), and  
then you play media with digital audio output, to hear  
digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting  
to “HDMI” (page 44).  
Note: you can connect the HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable  
and analog audio cables to either HDMI jacks on the TV  
(HDMI1 or HDMI2).  
You must set the HDMI audio input setting to DVI in  
the AUDIO menu (see page 44).

Connecting an audio system  
This connection allows you to use an audio amplifier and external  
speakers, and adjust the audio level using the TV’s remote control.  
To control the audio, turn on the TV and the stereo amplifier, and turn  
off the TV's built-in speakers (see “Turning off the built-in speakers” on  
page 43).  
You will need:  
• one pair of standard audio cables  
Note:  
To hear sound when using an external audio amplifier, the volume of  
both the TV and the amplifier must be set above 0 (zero).  
For example, if the volume of the TV is set to 0, you will not be able to  
hear any sound, even the volume of the amplifier is at its highest level.

Programming the remote control for use with  
your audio/video devices  
Device code setup  
Notes:  
1. Refer to the Device code table on pages 21–22 to find  
the code for your device.  
• Every time you replace the batteries, you  
must reprogram the remote control.  
If more than one number is listed, try each one separately  
until you find one that works.  
• Some newer VCRs are capable of working  
on either of two remote codes.These VCRs  
have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”  
2. Press MODE until the Mode indicator for the device  
(CABLE/SAT, VCR, DVD, AUDIO1, AUDIO2) lights up.  
If your VCR has this kind of switch and  
does not respond to any of the codes for  
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other  
position (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogram  
the remote control.  
3. While holding down the RECALL button, press the  
Channel Number buttons to enter the four-digit code of  
your blank of device.  
If a valid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink  
twice.  
If an invalid code is entered, the mode indicator will blink  
one long blink.  
4. Point the remote control at the device and press POWER  
to test the code.  
If the device turns on, you have entered the correct code.  
If the device does not respond to the remote control, you  
may have entered the wrong code. Repeat steps 3 and 4  
using another code.  
5. Press MODE to select the TV mode to control the TV.  
Searching and sampling the code of a device (8500)

If you do not know the device code for a particular target unit, you can  
cycle the remote control through the available codes for that device  
mode and sample the functions to find the code that properly operates  
the target device. The keys available to be sampled, provided they are  
applicable to that mode, are 0, 1, 2, 3, POWER, VOL C, CH C, PLAY  
and STOP. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.

three times. The remote control will begin to cycle through the  
available codes again. If no key is pressed within 10 seconds while  
programming, the remote control will exit the program mode and  
return to the previous code.
