Important notes about your LCD TV
The following symptoms are technical limitations of
LCD Display technology and are not an indication of
malfunction. Therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for
perceived defects 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.
Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a
“gun” type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work
on this TV.

Connecting your TV
Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.
●
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV
service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT RF input on your TV.
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three,
Coaxial (antenna) cable

and are for use with video devices with standard audio and standard
(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.
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)
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.
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a
standard (composite) video cable.
●
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use with
video devices with component video output. These cables are typically
color-coded red, green, and blue. (ColorStream® is Toshiba’s brand of
component video.) 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.
Component video cables
HDMI cable
●
HDMI cable is for use with devices with uncompressed HDMI (high-
definition multimedia interface) video/compressed audio output.
HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native format (see
page 15). This cable carries both video and audio information;
therefore, no separate audio cables are needed for a complete connec-
tion.
NOTE: RISK OF
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE!
Never plug in any power cords
until you have finished connecting all
equipment.
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard
(composite) video or S-video cable.

The ColorStream HD input and the HDMI
input can be used with Progressive (480p,
720p) and Interlaced (480i, 1080i) scan
systems; however, a 1080i signal will provide
the best picture performance.
– To record one TV program while watching another TV program,
tune the VCR to the channel to record, and tune the TV to the
channel to watch.
– To record a TV program while watching a DVD, tune the VCR to
the channel to record, and select ColorStream HD on the TV (see
“Selecting the video input source” on page 44).
If your DVD player is not compatible with
component video, HDMI, or DVI, use the
S-video connections (plus the standard audio
connections) instead (see page 11).
You will need:
• two coaxial cables
• one set of standard A/V cables
• one pair of standard audio cables
• one set of component video cables

camcorder.
Note:
If you have a camcorder with S-video, you
can use an S-video cable instead of a
standard video cable for better picture
performance. Plug the S-video and standard
audio cables into the “VIDEO-1 IN” inputs on
the upper back panel of the TV instead of the
inputs on the side panel.
You will need:
• one set of standard A/V cables

device.

DVI = Digital Video Interface.
HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.
EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, the technology of which is being
standardized for reception of high-definition video signals.
Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that
some devices may not operate properly with the TV.
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.
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.
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THIS TV TO
A PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC).
This TV is not intended for use with a PC.
• 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)
To connect a DVI device, you will need:
• one HDMI–to–DVI adapter cable
For proper operation, it is recommended that you
use a short HDMI cable.
(HDMI type A connector)
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration
below). Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output
digital audio signals. In that case, you may be able to
hear sound by connecting analog audio cables.
However, if you connect analog audio cables with this
connection, the HDMI terminal on the TV will not
receive the HDMI digital audio signal and you will
hear analog audio only.
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).
• one pair of standard analog audio cables
An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers only video.
Separate analog audio cables are required (see
illustration below).

Using the remote control
Preparing the remote control for use
Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other devices
such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, VCRs, DVD players,
and HTIBs (home theater in a box), even if they are different brands.
If you have a Toshiba device:
Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most Toshiba
devices. See page 20.
If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to
operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the other
device. See pages 17–19.
Installing the remote control batteries
1. Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote control.
Caution:
Never throw batteries into a fire.
Squeeze tab and
lift cover.
Note:
• Be sure to use AA size batteries.
2. Install two “AA” size batteries, making sure to match the + and –
signs on the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.
• Dispose of batteries in a designated
disposal area.
• Batteries should always be disposed of with
the environment in mind. Always dispose of
batteries in accordance with applicable laws
and regulations.
• If the remote control does not operate
correctly, or if the operating range becomes
reduced, replace batteries with new ones.
3. Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the tab
snaps.
• When necessary to replace batteries in the
remote control, always replace both
batteries with new ones. Never mix battery
types or use new and used batteries in
combination.
Remote control effective range
For optimum performance, aim the remote control directly at the TV
and make sure there is no obstruction between the remote control and
the TV.
• Always remove batteries from remote
control if they are dead or if the remote
control is not to be used for an extended
period of time. This will prevent battery acid
from leaking into the battery compartment.

control is not preprogrammed to operate, you must first program the
remote control to recognize the device (if you have not already done
so). See pages 17 and 18.
Note:
Even after the TV remote control is
programmed, it may not operate certain
features on your other device. If this happens
and you wish to use those features, you will
need to use the device’s original remote
control.
To use your TV remote control to operate a:
• Cable converter box or satellite receiver, set the Device Switch to
CBL/SAT.
• VCR, set the Device Switch to VCR.
• DVD player or HTIB, set the Device Switch to DVD.
Point the remote control
directly at the device.

You can leave your TV in STEREO mode because it will

A second audio program (SAP) can be heard
only on those TV stations that offer it.
For example, a station might broadcast music
as a second audio program. If you have SAP

program’s normal audio.
If the stereo sound is noisy, select MONO to reduce the noise.
To listen to SAP (if available):
1. Press MENU, and then press x or • until the AUDIO menu

2. Press y or z to highlight MTS.
However, if you have SAP on and the station
you are watching is not currently
broadcasting a second audio program, the
station’s normal audio will be output.
3. Press x or • to highlight SAP. You will hear the station’s second
audio program (if available) from the speakers, while viewing the
original program’s picture (see note at right).
Occasionally there is no sound at all in SAP
mode. If this happens, set the MTS feature to
STEREO mode.
