Antenna connections

IMPORTANT NOTICE The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting will be complete on June 12, 2009, but your local television stations may switch sooner. After the switch, analog-only television sets that receive TV programming through an antenna will need a converter box to continue to receive over-the-air TV. Watch your local stations to find out when they will turn off their analog signal and switch to digital-only broadcasting. Information about the DTV transition is available from your local television stations, www.DTV.gov, or 1-888-CALL-FCC (TTY 1-888-TELL-FCC), and www.dtv2009. gov or 1-888-DTV-2009 (TTY 1-877-530-2634) for information about subsidized coupons for digital-to-analog converter boxes. Please review this Operating Guide for further information regarding such connections. Hitachi supports the DTV transition and as a member of the DTV Transition Coalition urges consumers to visit these web sites for interactive guides and further detailed information:

If you subscribe to a Cable TV service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the incoming 75 ohm Coaxial Cable to the Converter/Descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm Coaxial Cable, connect the output jack of the Converter/Descrambler box to the Antenna Jack on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV to the output channel of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

For subscribers to unscrambled Cable TV service with scrambled premium channels

If you subscribe to a Cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/ Descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal Splitter and an A/B Switch box (available from the Cable TV company or an electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the “B” position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in the “A” position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV Converter box. Some cable companies offer “premium pay channels” where the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the Cable TV company.

Closed Caption

WHAT IS CLOSED CAPTIONING?

This television has the capability to decode and display Closed Captioned television programs. Closed Captioning will display text on the screen for hearing impaired viewers.

Captions: This Closed Caption Mode will display text on the screen in English or another language if program supports other languages. Generally, Closed Captions in English are transmitted on CC1 and a Closed Caption in other languages is transmitted on CC2. Text: The Text Closed Caption Mode will usually fill 1/2 of the screen with other text information such as weather if program supports this feature.

Select “Setup”, then press ▶ or ENTER.

Press ▲ or ▼ to select “Closed Captions”, then press ▶ or ENTER. The Closed Caption menu will appear.

Press ◀ or ▶ to set “CC Display” to “On”.

On: Captions will be displayed on the screen. Off: Captions will not be displayed on the screen.

Press ▲ or ▼ to select “Analog Caption” or “Digital Caption”.

When you select “Analog Caption”, you can choose from CC1, CC2, CC3, CC4, Text1, Text2, Text3 and Text4.

When you select “Digital Caption”, you can choose from Service1, Service2, Service3, Service4, Service5 and Service6.

Press ◀ or ▶ to select the desired Closed

Caption mode for

both Digital and Analog Caption.

Press ▲ or ▼ to select “CC Priority”, then press ◀ or ▶ to select “Digital CC” or “Analog CC”.

NOTE:

Depending on the broadcast signal, some Analog Captions will function with a Digital broadcast signal. This step prevents that two kind of captions are overlapping.

•

NOTE:

If the program or video you selected is not closed-captioned, no captions will display on-screen. If text is not available in your viewing area, a black rectangle may appear on-screen. If this happens, set the CC Display to “Off”. When selecting Closed Captions, the captioning will be delayed approx. 10 seconds. If no caption signal is received, no captions will appear, but the television will remain in the Caption Mode. Misspellings or unusual characters may occasionally appear during Closed Captioning. This is normal with Closed Captioning, especially with live programs. This is because during live programs, captions are also entered live. These transmissions do not allow time for editing. When Captions are being displayed, on-screen displays, such as volume and mute may be seen but may interfere with Closed Captions. Some cable systems and copy protection systems may interfere with the Closed Captioned signal. If using an indoor antenna or if TV reception is very poor, the Closed Caption Decoder may not appear or may appear with strange characters or misspelled words. In this case, adjust the antenna for better reception or use an outdoor antenna.

Reception disturbances

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 television has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers. If this television causes a problem to Radio receivers, then take the following steps:

•

Keep the television away from Radio. Adjust Radio antennas in order for the television not to receive interference. The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the television. Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

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

BLOCK NOISE or FREEZE (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 lost or weak receiving 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 generate sound distortion in external devices such as a radio. Please separate radio equipment from the TV set to a considerable distance.
