CARE OF YOUR HITACHI TELEVISIONAND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL

DO

Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.
Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm water and dry with a soft cloth. Amild soap may be used if
the screen is extremely dirty.
Place your Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.
Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your Televisionwill not be used for a long period of time, for instances,
when you go on vacation.

DO NOT

Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.
Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your Television.
Do not touch the screen too often.
Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. Physical damage to the precision
parts may result.
Avoid placing the remote control or the Simple Remote Control in a high humidity place or getting it wet. Do not leave
it on or near a heater. Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit to cease operation.
When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. Replace the
old batteries with two new “AA” size batteries. Do not use an old battery with a new battery.
Exposure of the viewing screen to prolonged direct sunlight or heat may cause the screen to permanently warp,
resulting in a distorted picture.
Cleaning Discs
When a disc becomes dirty, clean it with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out. Do not wipe in a
circular motion.
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, commercially available cleaners, detergent, abrasive cleaning agents
or antistatic spray intended for analogue records.
Cleaning the Disc Lens
If the player still does not perform properly when it is operated while referring to the relevant sections in this Instruction
Book, the laser optical pickup unit may be dirty. Consult your dealer or an Authorized Service Center for inspection
and cleaning of the laser optical pickup unit.
Disc Handling
Use discs which have the following logos on them:
