17.An outdoor antenna should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.

18.If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding for the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 82040 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

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 CableCARD 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 and data-enhanced television services may require the use of a set-top box. For more information call your local cable company.”

Do not place any objects on the top of the television which may fall or cause a child to climb to retrieve the objects.

Projection TV’s are heavy and can mark or damage floor surfaces (especially wood flooring) if moved improperly. Do not slide or force TV into position. Always roll TV allowing casters at bottom of unit to help steer and position the TV.

PREVENTION OF SCREEN BURN

This Wide Screen TV is designed to display wide screen pictures. Images should be viewed mostly in wide screen format or zoomed to fit the screen with moving pictures. Use of side panels, top and bottom panels of standard picture formats should only be 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age more rapidly than the gray areas. Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving) patterns can cause permanent damage to television receivers. Such “SCREEN BURNS” constitute misuse and are NOT COVERED by your HITACHI Factory Warranty.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PROJECTION TV

ANTENNA

Unless your TV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor TV antenna is recommended for best performance. However, if you are located in an exceptionally good signal area that is free from interference and multiple image ghosts, an indoor antenna may be sufficient.

LOCATION

Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.

NOTE: Your new HDTV has a built-in high definition television signal processor. This television includes a fan to cool the processor. The sound of moving air from the fan is normal and maybe noticeable in very quiet environments.

VIEWING

The major benefit of the HITACHI Projection Television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing.

The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the TV and about 10 to 18 feet from the screen. Picture brightness decreases as the viewer moves to the left and right of the receiver.

During daylight hours, reflections from outside light may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the reflection or the TV can be located in a different section of the room.

If the TV’s audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi system’s external speakers, the best audio performance will be obtained by placing the speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver cabinet and as close as possible to the height of the picture screen center. For best stereo separation, place the external speakers at least four feet from the side of the TV, place the surround speakers to the side or behind the viewing area. Differences in room sizes and acoustical environments will require some experimentation with speaker placement for best performance.

USE

 

• COMPONENT: Y-PBPR (Input 1 & 2) connections are provided for high performance components, such as DVD players and set-

 

 

top-boxes. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature. Input 2 accepts

 

 

both composite and component video signals.

 

Your component outputs may be labeled Y, B-Y, and R-Y. In this case, connect the components B-Y output to the TV’s PB input

 

 

and the components R-Y output to the TV’s PR input.

 

• Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBCR. In this case, connect the components CB output to the TV’s PB input and

 

 

the components CR output to the TV’s PR input.

 

• You may use composite and component video signals for Inputs 1 and 2.

 

• It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PBPR inputs (see page 44).

 

To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output may be abnormal, when using the Y-PBPR jacks.

 

• When using an HDMI input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended that a 1080i or 720p input signal is used.
