ANTENNA

Unless your Plasma Television is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color 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.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PLASMA TELEVISION

VIEWING

The major benefit of the HITACHI Plasma 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 8 to 18 feet from the screen. 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.

A buzzing sound might be heard when the plasma display monitor is turned on in a very quiet room. This is due to the plasma panel drive circuit when it is functioning. This arching sound is normal and it is not a malfunction.

Some infrared rays are emitted from the plasma display monitor’s panel that might affect other infrared controlling equipment.

High-precision technology is used to manufacture the plasma display panel; But in some cases, there are minor defects in some parts of the screen. Points that do not light, points with brightness different from that of the periphery, points with color different from that of the periphery, etc. Some pixels will always be on or always off. Please note that this is not a malfunction.

When receving still picture signals, (e.g. channel number indication or clock indication) for a while, you can see image-like when the picture varied. This is not a defect.

The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of internal radiation. In some cases, this may cause the temperature of the panel surface to increase. Please note that this is not a malfunction. The Plasma TV surface temperature is higher than a Cathode-ray-tube.

The plasma panel is made from glass. Heavy shock on the front panel might damage it. When the PDP monitor is transported horizontally, the glass panel has the possibility of being

broken or increasing the picture defects. At the time of transportation, horizontal style is prohibited. More-over, please treat the plasma panel with great care because of a precision apparatus. Please instruct transporters so that it should be put into the packing box at the time of shipment.(There is a possibility that breakage of the panel or defects will increase.) Rough transportation might cause damage to the panel and pixel failure.

The plasma monitor illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor will be degraded to such extent that stationary images would burn-in that part of the screen as grayed-out images. For 50” only, brightness will decrease automatically during still and slightly moving pictures. This is not a failure. This is a special feature to avoid image retention. Tips to prevent such image retention are:

- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or hi-contrast images, such as monochrome characters and graphic patterns, for long.

- Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at appropriate intervals of time, or try to move them using screen saver function.

-Turn down the contrast and brightness controls.

PDP television has luminosity and low contrast compared with CRT television. When a screen is seen at point-blank range, a random fine grain may be visible to a dark part. If an apparatus (VCR, etc.) antenna line is arranged near the monitor, the image may shake,

or disturbance may be received. There is some time lag betweeen the picture and the sound. You can see lip motion that is

delayed compared to the sound. Electric discharge/luminescence characteristic of the PDP panel also changes with peripheral

temperature. Moreover, since there is also high power consumption value, a specified temperature environment is required.

Storing the plasma television for a period of more than 2 to 3 months without use might cause an unstable picture when the set is turned on.

Operating altitude: 800 to 1114hPa (6194ft to -2484ft). Operating temperature: 41˚F to 95˚F. Storage Altitude: 300 to 1114hPa (15510ft to -2484ft). Storage temperature: 5˚F to 140˚F. Frequent use of the Power ON or OFF might trigger the power protection circuit. If the TV

does not turn ON, please wait a little before turning ON again.

TIPS ON REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

• S-VIDEO connections are provided for high performance laserdisc players, VCRs etc. that have this feature. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

• If your device has only one audio output (mono sound), connect it to the left audio jack on the AVC Center.

• Refer to the operating guide of your other electronic equipment for additional information on connecting your hook-up cables.

•Asingle VCR can be used for VCR #1 and VCR #2, but note that a VCR cannot record its own video or line output (INPUT: 4 in the example on page 22). Refer to your VCR operating guide for more information on line input-output connections.

• Connect only 1 component (VCR, DVD player, camcorder, etc.) to each input jack.

• COMPONENT: Y-PBPR (Input 1 & 2) connections are provided for high performance components, such as DVD players and settop-boxes. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

•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 PBinput and the components R-Y output to the TV’s PRinput.

•Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBCR. In this case, connect the components CBoutput to the TV’s PBinput and the components CRoutput to the TV’s PRinput.

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

•To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output will be abnormal, when using the

Y-PBP

, RGB and DVI-HDTV input

jacks.

• Input 1 can accept component

Y-PBPRsignal and DVI signal (No composite signal).

• Input 2 can accept both component Y-PBPRand composite video signal.

•You may use VIDEO or S-VIDEO inputs to connect to INPUT 3, 4 or 5, but only one of these, VIDEO or S-VIDEO, may be used at a time for each input. S-VIDEO has priority over VIDEO.

• S-VIDEO monitor output may be used for recording only when the input is of S-VIDEO type.

• When using a DVI input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended to use a 1080i or 720p input signal.
