Forbetter picture quality, if your VCR has S-video,you can use an S-video cable instead of thestandard video cable. Do not connect astandard video cable and an S-video cable toVIDEO-1 (or VIDEO-2) simultaneously.The unauthorized recording, use, distributionor revision of television programs,videotapes, DVDs, and other materials isprohibited under the Copyright Laws of theUnited States and other countries, and maysubject you to civil and criminal liability.Connecting a cable converter box or antennaThis television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without usinga cable <strong>com</strong>pany supplied converter box. Some cable <strong>com</strong>panies offer "premium paychannels" in which the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewingrequires the use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable <strong>com</strong>pany.Option 1: For Subscribers to Basic Cable TV ServiceFor basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the in<strong>com</strong>ing75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.Option 2: For Subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV ServiceIf you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box,connect the in<strong>com</strong>ing cable to the Converter/Descrambler box and connect the output of thebox 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.Option 3: For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with ScrambledPremium ChannelsIf you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled andpremium channels require the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, you may wish to use atwo-set signal splitter (sometimes called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box fromthe cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown below. Withthe 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/Descramblerbox (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.From CableOption 1:TV back panelNote:When you use a converterbox with your TV, there maybe features that you cannotprogram using the remotecontrol, such as labelingchannels, blockingchannels, and programmingyour favorite channels.Option 2:Cable BoxCable BoxSplitterA / B Switch A BOption 3:93X70701A_En_p02-0993/7/06, 6:23 PM

You should notencounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that isshorter than 16.4 ft (5m.)HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separateanalog audio cables are not required (see illustrationbelow.)You must set the HDMI audio input setting to“HDMI” in the AUDIO menu (see page 43.)Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audiosignals. In that case, you may hear sound by connectinganalog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables forthis reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio inputsetting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 43.)Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audiocables and play media with digital audio output, to heardigital audio you must set the HDMI audio input settingto “HDMI” (page 43.)[1] EIA/CEA-861/861B <strong>com</strong>pliance covers thetransmission of un<strong>com</strong>pressed digital video with highbandwidthdigital content protection, which is beingstandardized for reception of high-definition videosignals.Because this is an evolving technology, it is possiblethat some devices may not operate properly with theTV.To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset properly,it is re<strong>com</strong>mended that you follow these procedures:• When turning on your electronic <strong>com</strong>ponents, turn onthe TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.• When turning off your electronic <strong>com</strong>ponents, turn offthe HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV.To connect a DVI device, you will need:• one HDMI–to–DVI adapter cable(HDMI type A connector)For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVIadapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m.)

Setting up your TVSetting up your TVUsing the remote controlPreparing the remote control for useIn addition to operating the TV, the remote control can operate mostcable TV converters, satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players,regardless of their brand. The remote control is pre-programmed tooperate most Toshiba satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players. Tocontrol a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that the remotecontrol is not pre-programmed to operate), you must first program theremote control. See “Programming the remote control to operate yourother devices” on the next page.Installing the remote control batteriesTo install the batteries:1. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote control.2. Install two “AAA” size batteries. Match the + and – signs on thebatteries to the signs on the battery <strong>com</strong>partment.3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.Note:The TV remote control may not operate yourVCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter.Refer to the owner's manual supplied withyour other devices to see which features maybe available. Additionally, the remote controlfor this TV may not support certain featuresavailable on the original remote controls foryour other devices, in which case it issuggested that you use the original remotecontrol for the applicable device.Caution:• Never throw batteries into a fire.Notes:• Be sure to use AAA size batteries.• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.• Batteries should always be disposed of with theenvironment in mind. Always dispose of batteries inaccordance with applicable laws and regulations.• If the remote control does not operate correctly,or if the operating range be<strong>com</strong>es reduced,replace batteries with new ones.• When necessary to replace batteries in theremote control, always replace both batterieswith new ones. Never mix battery types or usenew and used batteries in <strong>com</strong>bination.• Always remove the batteries from the remote controlif they are dead or if the remote control is not to beused for an extended period of time. This willprevent battery acid from leaking into the battery<strong>com</strong>partment.Using the remote control to operate your other devicesTo control a cable TVconverter/satellitereceiver:Program the remotecontrol to recognize thebrand of your cable TVconverter/satellite receiver(see “Programming theremote control to operateyour other devices” on thenext page.)

Refer to the code tables (on pages 20 and 21) to find thecorresponding code for your device.If more than one code is listed, try each one separately until youfind the one that works.2. If you are programming the remote control to operate your:• Cable TV converter/satellite receiver: Press “CBL/SAT.”• VCR: Press “VCR.”• DVD player: Press “DVD.”3. While holding down DISPLAY, press the Channel Number buttonsto enter the three-digit code for your device within 10 seconds.Note:If you do not enter the code within 10 seconds from step 3,or if you enter the wrong code, this operation is canceled.4. Point the remote control at the cable TV converter/satellitereceiver, VCR or DVD player, and press POWER to test the code.• If the device responds, you entered the correct code.• If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using another code.5. Press “TV” to control the TV.For future reference, write down the codes you used:Cable TV converter/satellite receiver code _____________________VCR code ______________________________________________DVD player code _________________________________________INPUTDISPLAYCT-885DisplayChannelNumbersTVVCRDVDCBL/SATNotes:• When shipped from the factory, the remotecontrol is set to operate your TV.• Each time you replace the batteries, youmust reprogram the remote control.• Some newer VCRs are capable of workingon either of two remote codes. These VCRshave a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.”If your VCR has this kind of switch anddoes not respond to any of the codes foryour VCR, set the switch to the otherposition (VCR1 or VCR2) and reprogramthe remote control.193X70701A_En_p18-25199/3/06, 2:18 PM
