CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,

DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK).

NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended

to alert the user to the presence of

uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of a sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to a person.

The exclamation point within an equilateral

triangle, is intended to alert the user to the

presence of important operating and

maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod,

bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the

apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15.Televisions are designed to comply with the

recommended safety standards for tilt and stability. Do not apply excessive pulling force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could cause the product to overturn resulting in product damage and/or personal injury.

16.Follow instructions for wall, shelf or ceiling mounting as recommended by the manufacturer.

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.

Power source

This plasma television is designed to operate on 120 volts 60 Hz, AC current. Insert the power cord into a 120 volt 60 Hz outlet. The mains plug is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable.

To prevent electric shock, do not use the plasma television’s (polarized) plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades and ground terminal can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Never connect the plasma television to 50 Hz, direct current, or anything other than the specified voltage.

Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.

Caution

Never remove the back cover of the plasma television as this can expose you to very high voltages and other hazards. If

the television does not operate properly, unplug the plasma television and call your authorized dealer or service center.

Caution

Adjust only those controls that are covered in the instructions, as improper changes or modifications not expressly approved by HITACHI could void the user’s

warranty.

Warning

• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not

expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

• The plasma television should not be exposed to

dripping or splashing and objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should not be placed on the television.

Because digital television (DTV) signals remain in digital format, HDMI assures that pristine high-definition images retain the highest video quality from the source all the way to your television screen.

Use the HDMI input for your external devices such as Set-Top-Boxes or DVD players equipped with an HDMI output connection.

G General - Programming intended for audiences of all ages. Contains no violence, or the

violence content is minimal or is depicted appropriately with humor or caricature or in an unrealistic manner.

8 ans + 8 + General - Not recommended for young children - Programming intended for a broad

audience but contains light or occasional violence that could disturb young children. Viewing with an adult is therefore recommended for young children (under the age of 8) who cannot differentiate between real and imaginary portrayals.

13 ans + Programming may not be suitable for children under the age of 13 - Contains either a few

violent scenes or one or more sufficiently violent scenes to affect them. Viewing with an adult is therefore strongly recommended for children under 13.

16 ans + Programming is not suitable for children under the age of 16 - Contains frequent scenes

of violence or intense violence.

18 ans + Programming restricted to adults - Contains constant violence or scenes of extreme

violence.

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.

• 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 (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.
