Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome to Toshiba

Thank you for purchasing this Toshiba TV, one of the most innovative LCD TVs on the market.

This digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic, and digital premium cable television programming by direct connection to a cable system providing such programming. A security card provided by your cable operator is required to view encrypted digital programming. Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services (such as video-on-demand, a cable operator's enhanced program guide, or data-enhanced television services) may require the use of a set-top box. For more information, call your local cable operator.

We have provided three separate Guides to facilitate the installation and operation of your TV.

Please use the Guides in the order shown below to get the most enjoyment from your new TV.

1)The Installation Guide explains how to connect your TV to your antenna and equipment.

2)The Operating Guide (this Guide) provides step-by-step instructions for using your TV's many features.

3)The TV Guide On ScreenInteractive Program Guide explains how to set up and navigate the TV Guide On Screensystem in your TV.
