A comprehensive Operating and Service Manual. All schematics are complete and easy to read. The PCB drawings and complete parts list are very helpful. I would definitely recommend this manual.
Genuine Toshiba owner's manual. Couldn't really ask for more. And written in understandable English in contrast to a few recent experiences I have had with manuals for other equipment other than Toshiba but made in China and written in "Chinglish"!
I purchased a vintage Sony mixer off eBay and within the hour was able to locate and purchase the manual for it.I mean really,where else can you find a manual for a product made in 1983!? It was easy to find and purchase/download the manual I needed.I will use this site again for other equipment I have! Great site!

Button Functions
Aspect
This feature will help you adjust the picture you are watching to give you the best possible picture quality.
Aspect Ratios
PANORAMA - With this ratio a normal 4:3 aspect picture is stretched to fit the dimensions of the 16:9 aspect screen. REGULAR - The regular ratio is used when you want to watch a 4:3 broadcast or recorded program without modifying the original picture to fit the dimensions of your 16:9 screen. The 4:3 picture will fill the screen from top to bottom, while black bars will appear to fill up the remaining space along the picture�s sides. The 4:3 picture will be centered within the boundaries of the 16:9 screen.
CINEMA - This ratio �zooms in� on the center part of a 4:3 aspect picture, blowing it up to fill the 16:9 screen.
FULL - This is the ratio to use when watching 16:9 High-Definition broadcasts.
SLIM - This aspect mode shrinks the screen of 16:9 to 4:3. There are some programming that is already stretched by mistake at broadcasting companies, so this mode corrects it. Black side bars will appear.
PANORAMA ZOOM - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black side bars. FULL NATIVE - This ratio displays 100% of the ratio. Normally, all aspects except for Full Native display about 95%.
CINEMA ZOOM - This ratio stretches the High-Definition 16:9 aspect image to eliminate the black surrounding bars.
