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 optim
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.

FIRST TIME USE
NOTES:1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is
played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.
2. The HDMI input on INPUT 1 contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using HDMI connections to
prevent illegal copying of video contents.
3. HDMI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of
uncompressed video to a display.
4. The connected digital output device controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines
final video appearance.

SRS
Based on the principles of the human hearing system, SRS technology delivers and exciting and realistic
3D Sound experience from just two external speakers (or) the two internal speakers of your HITACHI
Television. If your HITACHI Television is connected to an external audio system, SRS will also create an
incredible 3D sound experience from two speakers and even enhance a complete multi-speaker surround
sound system.

BBE
Technology
Sound reproduction quality enhancement system. The BBE technology produces sound that is natural and
crisp from just two speakers or the two internal speakers found in your HITACHI television. If your HITACHI
television is connected to an external audio system, BBE will also create an incredible crisp sound experience from two speakers. BBE brings to the listener’s ear a more complete and accurate reproduction of
the original performance. Each voice, speaking or singing, each instrument or sound effect is presented
with its attendant harmonics or partials more clearly audible. The ear can then more easily recognize the
unique tonal colors of each sound as though the sound was being produced live.

Auto Digital Convergence Adjustment
Please turn ON your television for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.
The Magic Focus button on control panel will not work when adjustment mode is set to Manual (see page 56 or 57).
Your HITACHI Projection TV has three color projection tubes: one for red, one for green, one for blue. When mixed together in the proper
proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce these colors, however, the beams must be precisely
aligned o
Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or moving the TV. If you move
your TV, or if, after a time, you notice color rings or halos around objects in the picture, you may want to converge (align) the colors.
Properly converged, the lines appear white, which is actually a combination of the outputs of the three color tubes. The output of the
green tube is stationary. The outputs of the red and blue tubes can be adjusted. When properly aligned, the outputs of all three tubes
should be directly over each other to produce the white lines.
To simplify convergence, HITACHI incorporates a function called MAGIC FOCUS located on the front control panel, which allows the TV
to self-adjust. Press this MAGIC FOCUS button and the convergence self adjustment will start and this process will take approximately
20 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 20 second self-adjust period,
picture quality will be optimum (do not move the TV during self-adjust).
ver each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.
You may also select MAGIC FOCUS TUNE UP from the Setup Menu.
NOTE:Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITAL CONVERGENCE. At any
time during this convergence correction process, you may press the MAGIC FOCUS button to exit the MAGIC FOCUS
mode. However, the convergence correction process needs to be completed to SAVE the new corrected convergence
data.

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI TELEVISION
AND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
DO
Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.
Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be used if
the screen is extremely dirty.
Place your Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.
Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your Television will not be used for a long period of time, for instances,
when you go on vacation.
DO NOT
Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.
Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your Television.
Do not touch the screen too often.
Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. Physical damage to the precision
parts may result.
Avoid placing the remote control or the Simple 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 unit to cease operation.
When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. Replace the
old batteries with two new “AA” size batteries as soon as possible to preserve the remote control precodes that were
set for the devices. Pressing a remote control button with a “DEAD” battery might erase all precodes in memory. Do
not use an old battery with a new battery.

RECEPTION PROBLEMS
• 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.
• BLOCK NOISE (Digital Input):
Fuzzy blocks may appear in some area or the whole area of the screen.
This is usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems,
neon lamps, electrical drills, ghosting of the image and weak signals.
• BLACK SCREEN:
When using an antenna, weak signals will display a black screen. It may
be necessary to upgrade your antenna.
NOTE:The TV set can gener
