How to set up your new HITACHI Projection Television

ANTENNA

Unless your TV 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. 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.

NOTE: Your new HDTV has a built-in high definition television signal processor. This television includes a fan

to cool the processor. The sound of moving air from the fan is normal and may be noticeable in very

quiet environments.

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.
