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 , 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. Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer s attention to Article of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical. Disposal of this product may require specific instructions pertaining to your resident state. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance: PEVENTION OF PATTEN BUN Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (nonmoving) patterns can cause permanent damage to television receivers. Such PATTEN BUNS constitute misuse and are NOT COVEED by your HITACHI Factory Warranty. When using the Picture-in-Picture function, the sub-picture should not be left permanently in one corner of the screen or a PATTEN BUN may develop over a long period of time. PUBIC VIEWING OF COPYIGHTED MATEIA Public viewing of programs broadcast by TV stations and cable companies, as well as programs from other sources, may require prior authorization from the broadcaster or owner of the video program material. 3

5 HOW TO SET UP YOU NEW HITACHI POJECTION TV ANTENNA Unless your TV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color 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. OCATION Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, 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. 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 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 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. CAUTION: Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture to distort if they are placed too close to the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the television until there is no picture distortion. 5

6 HOOK-UP CABES AND CONNECTOS Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the various components and the length of each cable. 300-Ohm Twin ead Connector This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm). ''F'' Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector For connecting F signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna jack on the television. Phono Connector Used on all standard video and audio cables which connect to inputs and outputs located on the television s rear jack panel and front control panel. S-VIDEO (Super Video) Connector This connector is used on camcorders, VCs, and laserdisc players with an S-VIDEO feature in place of the standard video cable to produce a high quality picture. ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO EA JACK PANE VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/catv (Cable TV) When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect the outdoor antenna or CATV coaxial cable to the ANT A (75-Ohm) terminal. If you have a second antenna or cable TV system, connect the coaxial cable to the ANT B terminal. VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/uhf antenna When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor antenna, connect the VHF or UHF antenna leads to screws of the VHF or UHF adapter. Plug the adapter into the antenna terminal on the TV. When both VHF and UHF antennas are connected Attach an optional antenna cable mixer to the TV antenna terminal, and connect the cables to the antenna mixer. Consult your dealer or service store for the antenna mixer. 6

39 SET UP MAGIC FOCUS 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 over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called convergence. 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 willl start and this process will take approximately 40 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 40 second self-adjust period, picture quality will be optimum. (Do not move the TV during self-adjust.) You may also select MAGIC FOCUS from the Menu. MAGIC FOCUS MAGIC FOCUS NOTES: 1. For MAGIC FOCUS to perform at it s best, the television must be turned ON and heat run for a minimum of 20 minutes before pressing MAGIC FOCUS on the front panel. 2. Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITA CONVEGENCE. At anytime during this convergence correction process, you may press the MAGIC FOCUS button to exit the MAGIC FOCUS mode. 39
