Quick Setup Guide

Perform the following steps to quickly setup your new Hitachi Plasma Television Set.

1. ANTENNA CONNECTION

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.

a). VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV)

When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect CATV coaxial cable to the AIR/CABLE (75-Ohm) terminal. Or if you have an antenna, connect the coaxial cable to the same AIR/CABLE terminal.

b). 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.
