HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HiTACHi LCD REAR PTV

ANTENNA

Unless your LCD Rear PTV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor 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. Aiso, 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.

When installing your LCD Rear PTV against a wall, keep it at least 10 cm (4 inches) from the wall.

VSEWJNG

The major benefit of the HITACHI LCD Rear PTV 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 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 wilI 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.

VIEWINGANGLE

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1= Since LCD Rear PTV incorporates a high pressure Iamp to display an image, it may take about one minute for the picture to

become stable, after the power has been turned on= After extended use, the picture may darken, the color may look unusual,

or the lamp "goes out," (burns out)= You may hear a "pop" sound when the Iamp "goes out=" These are common

characteristics of the lamp, and should not be considered defective.

2= LCD Rear PTV incorporates an advanced cooling fan system to prevent from overheating. If you hear the cooling fan, it should

not be considered defective.

3= If you hear a "cracking" sound from the TV cabinet, it is due to the TV's cabinet expanding and contracting due to room

temperature changes. It has no effect on the TV's functions.

4= The LCD Rear PTV cabinet is constructed with all plastic. Make sure to place it on a flat surface. An uneven surface might

warp the cabinet and reduce the picture quality.

HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS

m i

Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors.

S-VIDEO, HDMI and component 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 television.

Refer to the operating guide of your other electronic equipment for additional information on connecting your hook-up cables.

A singte VCR can be used for VCR #1 and VCR #2, but note that a VCR cannot record its own video or line output (iNPUT: 3 in

the example on page 13). Refer to your VCR operating guide for more information on line input-output connections.

You may use VIDEO or S-VIDEO inputs to connect to input 3, input 4 or input 5, but only one of these may be used at a time.

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 set-

top-boxes. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature, input 1 and 2

accepts both composite and component video signals.

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 PB input

and the components R-Y output to the TV's PR input.

Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBC R. in this case, connect the components CB output to the TV's PB input and

the components C R output to the TV's PR input.

You may use composite video signal for input 1-input 5.

It may be necessary to adiust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PBPR inputs. (See page 45)

To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output may be abnormal, when using the Y-PBPR iacks.

When using HDMI or DVl input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended to use a 1080i or 720p input signal.

crisp from iust two speakers or the two internal speakers found in your HITACHI television. If your HITACHI

television is connected to an external audio system, BBE wiII also create an incredible crisp sound experi-

ence from two speakers. BBE brings to the listener's ear a more complete and accurate reproduction of

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.

RECEPTION PROBLEMS

-m

IGNITION NOISE:

Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift,

Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon

Iamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appIiances,

GHOSTS:

Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths, One is the

direct path and the other is reflected from talI buildings, hills or some other

obiects, Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve

reception, Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system

such as unshieided leads or connecting severat sets to the same antenna

without using muItiple antenna couplers,

o 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 smalI

dots, When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a

special antenna to improve the picture,

o RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:

The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in

some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture,

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,
