PREVENTION OF SCREEN BURN
This Wide Screen TV is designed to display wide screen pictures.
Images should be viewed mostly in wide screen format or
zoomed to fill the screen with moving pictures. Use of side panels, top and bottom panels of standard picture formats should only
be 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age
more rapidly than the gray areas. Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving) patterns can cause permanent damage to television receivers.
Such "SCREEN
BURNS" constitute misuse and are NOT COVERED by your HITACHI Factory Warranty.
COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL
• Public viewing of programs broadcast by TV stations and cable companies, as welt as programs from other sources, may
require prior authorization from the broadcaster or owner of the video program material.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PROJECTION
TV
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 wilt 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.
VIEWING

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.

HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most video/audio 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.

HOW TO USE THE REMOTE TO CONTROL YOUR TV
(_) VIRTUAL HD button
Press this button to toggle between 1080i and 540p.
540p and 1080i represent two ways to display the TV signal.
I
•
Progressive: The "p" in 540p tells you that the display is showing you the picture in the progressive format.With the
progressive format the complete picture is created by drawing lines across the screen from left to right which fill the screen
from the top to the bottom. If you look very closely at the screen there wilt be a very small space between each line. The
progressive format is good for displaying fast moving programs such as a sporting event.
•
Interlaced: The "i" in 1080i tells you that the display is showing you the picture in the interlaced format. With the interlaced
format the picture is created by drawing lines across the screen from left to right which fill the screen from top to bottom, and
then returning to the top and drawing another set of lines in between the first set. The TV draws the lines so fast that our
eyes can't see them. If you look very closely at the screen you will notice a smoother image than with the progressive
format. The interlaced format is good for displaying detailed images like feature films.
•
You can compare the progressive and interlaced formats by toggling the "VIRTUAL HD" button on the remote control. Some
people like the crisp picture from 540p and some people like the smooth and detailed 1080i. Hitachi offers you the choice.

Your HITACHI Projection 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 both the main picture and the sub-picture simultaneously. ANT B can only be viewed as a main picture.
To select between main picture and PIP sub-picture tuning, press the SWAP button on the remote. The green highlighted channel
display wilt move with every press of the SWAP button. When the top channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the main
picture. When the lower channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the PIP sub-picture.
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 ANT A source or any of the video inputs.

General - Programming intended for audiences
of all ages. Contains no violence, or the violence content is minimal or is depicted appropriately with humor or caricature or in an unrealistic manner.
8 ans +
8 + General - Not recommended

children - Programming intended for a broad
audience but contains light or occasional
violence that could disturb young children.
Viewing with an adult is therefore recommended
for young children (under the age of 8) who cannot differentiate between real and imaginary
portrayals.
13 ans +
Programming may not be suitable for children under the age of 13 - Contains either a
few violent scenes or one or more sufficiently
violent scenes to affect them. Viewing with an
adult is therefore strongly recommended for
children under 13.
16 ans +
Programming is not suitable for children
under the age of 16 - Contains frequent scenes
of violence or intense violence.
18 ans +
Programming restricted to adults - Contains
constant violence or scenes of extreme violence.

Auto Digital Convergence
Adjustment
Please turn ON your television for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.
The Magic Focus button on control panel will not work when adjustment mode is set to Manual (see page 57).
Your HITACHI Projection TV has three color projection tubes: one for red, one for green, one for blue. When mixed together in the
proper proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce these colors, however, the beams must be
precisely aligned over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called "convergence".
Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or moving the TV. If you move
your TV, or if, after a time, you notice color rings or halos around objects in the picture, you may want to converge (align) the colors.
Properly converged, the lines appear white, which is actually a combination of the outputs of the three color tubes. The output of the
green tube is stationary. The outputs of the red and blue tubes can be adjusted. When properly aligned, the outputs of all three tubes
should be directly over each other to produce the white lines.
To simplify convergence, HITACHI incorporates a function called MAGIC FOCUS located on the front control panel, which allows the
TV to self-adjust. Press this MAGIC FOCUS button and the convergence self adjustment wilt start and this process wilt take
approximately 20 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 20 second
self-adjust period, picture quality wilt be optimum (do not move the TV during self-adjust).
You may also select MAGIC FOCUS TUNE UP from the Setup Menu.

NOTES:
Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITAL CONVERGENCE.
At any

data.

RECEPTION
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.
