THE ISSUE
The home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend and larger •
at displays are popular purchases. However, at panel displays are
not always supported on the proper stands or installed according to the
manufacturer’s recommendations.
Flat Panel displays that are inappropriately situated on dresser, bookcases, •
shelves, desks, speakers, chest or carts may fall over and cause injury.
HITACHI CARES!
The consumer electronics industry is commited to making home •
entertainment enjoyable and safe.
TUNE INTO SAFETY
One size does NOT t all. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations •
for the safe installation and use of your at panel display.
Carefully read and understand all enclosed instructions for proper use •
of this product.
Don’t allow children to climb on or play with furniture and television •
sets.
Don’t place at panel displays on furniture that can easily be used as •
steps, such as a chest of drawers.
Remember that children can become excited while watching a program, •
especially on a “larger than life” at panel display. Care should be taken
to place or install the display where it cannot be pushed, pulled over,
or knocked down.
Care should be taken to route all cords and cables connected to the •
at panel display so that they cannot be pulled or grabed by curious
children.
WALL MOUNTING: IF YOU DECIDE TO WALL
MOUNT YOUR FLAT PANEL DISPLAY, ALWAYS:
Use a mount that has been recommended by the display manufacturer •
and/or listed by an independent laboratory (such as UL, CSA, ETL).
Follow all instructions supplied by the display and wall mount •
manufacturers.
If you have any doubts about your ability to safely install your at panel •
display, contact your retailer about professional installation.

TROUBLESHOOTING
About LCD Display Technology
The following are common phenomena occurring when viewing LCD display devices due to its characteristics.
Please note that these are not malfunctions.
Defective Spots on Panel
The LCD panel is manufactured with high-precision technology. However, there might be some spots that are not
illuminated, or are brighter than others, or are in different colors, etc.
Surface on Panel
The LCD panel displays images by the uorescent lamps internally. This can raise the temperature of the display
surface.
In addition, do not allow any heavy impact to the front of the panel because the LCD panel is made of high precision
glass.
Use Under Low Temperature Conditions
Because of the structural characteristics of the LCD panel, the response speed of the LCD panel becomes slower
when the ambient temperature becomes too low. In some cases, this may result in a residual image.
The residual image will disappear of its own accord as the temperature rises again to a normal level.
Before calling a service technician, check the following tables rst. If the problem cannot be solved with the
suggested procedures, contact 800-HITACHI. For your safety, NEVER try to repair the product yourself.
