HOW TO SETUP YOUR NEW HITACHI PLASMA TELEVISION

To take measures to prevent the Plasma Television from tipping over and prevent possible injury it is important to mount the unit in a stable place.

Securing to a wall

*Keep the Plasma Television four inches away from the wall except those hung to the wall mount bracket.

NOTES: 1. Do not block the ventilation holes of the Plasma Television. Blocking the ventilation holes might cause fire or defect. 2. If you purchased the wall mount bracket option, please ask for professional installer. Do not install by yourself.

Caution when moving the main unit

As this product is heavy, whenever it is moved, two people are required to transport it safely. Whenever the unit is moved it should be lifted forward using the top and base on both sides for stability. When moving the Plasma Television, lift the top and the bottom frame as shown below.

ANTENNA

Unless your Plasma Television 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.

LOCATION

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.
