Introduction

Welcome to Toshiba

Congratulations! You have purchased one of the finest 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.

Instructions in this manual are based on using the remote control. You can also use the controls on the TV if they have the same name as those on the remote control.

Please read all the safety and operating instructions carefully, and keep the manual for future reference.

Exploring your new TV

You can operate your TV by using the buttons on the front panel or the remote control. The back panel and front panel (behind the door) provide all the terminal connections you will need to connect other equipment to your TV. See “Connecting your TV” on page 7.

Please Note

On some models, the SET UP menu automatically appears on- screen the first time the TV is turned on.

To change the menu settings, see “Setting Up Your TV” on page 19 for details.

To close the menu, either press EXIT or turn the TV off.
