Preparing the remote control for use

With the remote control, you can operate your TV, most cable TV converters/satellite receivers, VCRs, and DVD players together, even if they are different brands. If you will be using your TV with a Toshiba satellite receiver, VCR, or DVD player, your remote control is already programmed and ready to use. If you own different brands of cable TV converters/satellite receivers, VCRs, and/or DVD players, you must first program your remote control. (See “Programming the

remote control to operate your other devices," on page 17.)

Installing the remote control batteries

To 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 the batteries to the signs on the battery compartment.

3. Close the battery cover on the remote control until the lock snaps.

Note:

The TV remote control may not operate your VCR, DVD player, or cable TV converter. Refer to the owner's manual supplied with your other devices to see which features may be available. Additionally, the remote control for this TV may not support certain features available on the original remote controls for your other devices, in which case it is suggested that you use the original remote control 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 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.

•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.

•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.

The Toshiba 34HF85 is a notable model in the world of television technology, particularly known for its impressive display and feature set. Launched in an era that marked the transition from traditional tube TVs to the burgeoning flat-screen technology, the 34HF85 offers a blend of classic design and modern capabilities.

A hallmark of the Toshiba 34HF85 is its size; sporting a 34-inch screen, it strikes a balance between being compact enough for smaller living spaces while still providing an immersive viewing experience. The television features a high-resolution, flat-screen display that showcases vibrant colors and sharp images, enhancing the viewing pleasure for movies, sports, and interactive gaming.

The 34HF85 employs Toshiba's advanced projection technology, which includes the use of the popular CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) approach. This technology delivers deep blacks and a wide contrast ratio, ensuring that viewers can appreciate even the most intricate details in dark scenes. The television also features a 16:9 aspect ratio, making it ideal for widescreen content, which has become increasingly dominant in the media landscape.

One of the standout features of the Toshiba 34HF85 is its built-in Dolby Digital audio capabilities. This technology allows for an enriched sound experience that complements the visual performance, creating a more immersive atmosphere for viewers. The combination of quality visuals and audio makes it suitable for home theaters or casual viewing alike.

In terms of connectivity, the Toshiba 34HF85 is equipped with multiple input options, including standard composite, S-video, and component inputs, which allow users to connect various devices such as DVD players, video game consoles, and cable boxes. This versatility makes it convenient for users who wish to integrate multiple entertainment systems.

Additionally, the Toshiba 34HF85 offers features such as a digital comb filter, which reduces image artifacts and enhances the quality of standard-definition content. This is especially beneficial for viewers still reliant on cable or older video formats. The television's channel programming and user-friendly menus add to the overall convenience, allowing for an enjoyable user experience.

Despite being a model that reflects its era of release, the Toshiba 34HF85 has garnered interest from those who appreciate vintage technology and high-quality images. Its combination of size, display quality, and audio features ensures that it remains a vibrant option for those seeking a tele-visual experience that fuses classic design with functional technology.
