HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW
HITACHI COLOR TV
ANTENNA
Unless your color 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.
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 back cover of the set.
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the color TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.
VIEWING

The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the color TV and about 6 to 9 feet from the screen. 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 color
TV can be located in a different section of the room.
If the color 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 color television, 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:

The magnetic field of external speakers may cause the picture to distort if the speakers are placed too close I
to the color television. Move the speakers away from the color TV until there is no picture distortion.

HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most videolaudio 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.

This outdoor antenna cable must be connected

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.

"F" Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector
For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the
antenna jack on the television.

S-Video (Super Video) Connector
This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs, and laserdisc
players with an S-Video feature in place of the standard
video cable to produce a high quality picture.

Antenna Connections
These sets are equipped with one VHF/UHF antenna terminal. The VHF/UHF terminal can be used for normal TV, cable TV (CATV),
a TV game, etc.
1, VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV)
When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect

The Picture-in-Picture feature is convenient when you want to watch more than one program at the same time. You can watch a
TV program while viewing other programs from the antenna source or any of the video inputs.
Your HITACHI Color TV incorporates Dual Tuner technology designed for improved viewing enjoyment. This Dual Tuner feature
allows you to view antenna inputs on both the main picture and Sub-Picture simultaneously, with separate tuning control for each.
The Dual Tuner can operate with only one input (ANT A only) or two inputs (ANT A and ANT B).
ANT A input can be viewed as the main picture and as the Sub-Picture, ANT B can only ve viewed as a main picture. To select
between main picture and PiP Sub-Picture while tuning, press PIP CH button on the remote. The gray background will move with
every press of the PIP CH button, When the gray background is on the top channel display, channel tuning is for the main picture.
When the gray background is on the lower channel display, channel tuning is for the Sub-Picture. This method of picture tuning is
the same for one antenna input (ANT A only) and two antenna inputs (ANT A and ANT B).
32/36GX01B models:
Do not incorporate Dual Tuner technology.

PROBLEMS

¥ IGNITION NOISE:
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

¥ GHOSTS:
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the
direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other
objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve
reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system
such as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to the same antenna
without using multiple antenna couplers.

¥ SNOW:
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where
the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small
dots, When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a
special antenna to improve the picture.

¥ RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal
some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

NOTE:

streaks, and in

The TV set can generate sound distortion in external devices such as a radio. Please separate radio equipment from
the TV set to a considerable distance.
