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.

AV NET LEARNING WIZARD

This function of the AV NET makes it more expandable because it allows the user to use equipment that is not supported by the pre-code library, listed on page 21. For example, after programming your equipment to the AV NET and the soft keys do not work, the user just has to follow the steps below. The AV NET Learning Wizard will transfer any remote button IR code of your equipment to the soft keys of your AV NET. If all remote button transfers are successful, the user can now control their equipment by using the Plasma TV remote control.

NOTE: It is very important to point the equipment’s remote control directly close (about 12 inches) to the LEARNING AV NET

sensor of the AVC (see pages 9-10) while trying to transfer the desired remote control button to the AV NET.

Your HITACHI Plasma TV incorporates Dual Tuner technology designed for improved viewing enjoyment. This Dual Tuner feature allows you to view antenna inputs on both the main picture and sub-picture simultaneously, with separate tuning control for each. The Dual Tuner can operate with only one input (ANTA only) or two inputs (ANT A and ANT B).

ANT A input can be viewed as both the main picture and the sub-picture simultaneously. ANT B can only be viewed as a main picture. To select between main picture and PIP sub-picture tuning, press the SWAP button on the remote. The highlighted channel display will move with every press of the SWAP button. When the top channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the main picture. When the lower channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the PIP sub-picture.

The Picture-in-Picture feature is convenient when you want to watch more than one program at the same time. You can watch a TV program while viewing other programs from the ANTA source or any of the video inputs.

Use above connection to view VCR program as a sub-picture while viewing another program as main picture (ANT A, ANT B, V:1 V:2, V:4, or V:5). You may also view the VCR program as a main picture while viewing another program as a sub-picture (ANT A, V:1 V:2, V:4, or V:5).

 PIP button

Press the PIP button and a sub-picture will appear in one of the available modes (SPLIT, POP or PIP), depending on the last selection of the PIP mode. To change the PIP mode, use the PIP MODE button to cycle through the available modes.

SPLIT MODE PIP

Press the PIP button and a sub-picture appears in one of the available modes (SPLIT, POPor PIP), depending on the last selection of the PIP mode. Press the PIP button again to remove the sub-picture from the screen. Use the SWAP button to select between main and sub-picture tuning control (indicated by green highlighted border around the picture). Press the VID1, VID2, VID3, VID4 or VID5 button when sub-picture channel tuning is being controlled, to change between VIDEO 1 to VIDEO 5 and ANT:A source. (ANT B source cannot be viewed as a sub-picture.)

Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. This may cause physical damage to the precision parts.

Avoid placing the remote control in a high humidity place or getting it wet. Do not leave it on or near a heater. Excessive heat or moisture may cause the remote control unit to fail.

When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or become unresponsive. Replace the old batteries with two new “AA” size batteries. Do not use an old battery with a new battery.

Exposing the screen to direct sunlight for a long period of time or heat may cause damage to the plasma screen.

USEFUL INFO

USEFUL INFORMATION

• IGNITION NOISE: Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift. Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

• GHOSTS: Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system such as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to the same antenna without using multiple antenna couplers.

• SNOW: If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the picture.

• RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE: The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

• PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers. If this monitor causes a problem to Radio receivers, then take the following steps:

- Keep the monitor away from Radio.

- Adjust Radio antennas in order for the monitor not to receive interference.

- The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the monitor.

- Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

You can check if this monitor influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other than the monitor. If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the monitor, check the instructions mentioned above.

• The display image appears scrolling diagonal.

• Text displayed across the screen appears vertically streaked, with the characters in vertical columns blurred.

• Text displayed across the screen appears blurred.

• A fine pattern flickers when displayed on the screen.

• Adjust the horizontal clock and clock phase. (Adjust the horizontal clock first, the clock phase next.) (RGB input)

• Adjust the clock phase for the clearest viewing. (RGB input)

• Vertical stripes appear, depending on the screen contents.

• Coarse horizontal stripes appear in FULL display.

• The display dims to make the picture invisible during special playback of a VCR (FF, REW).

• The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of internal radiation. Depending on the screen contents, in rare cases this may cause vertical stripes to appear because of failure to light. Please note that this is not a malfunction.

• Adjusting the clock phase will reduce the horizontal stripes.

(RGB input)

• This condition may occur when the unit is connected to a VCR with component output, such as 480i, but it is not a failure. But when it occurs, switch to composite output or S1 (S2) output).
