ANTENNA

Unless your LCD Rear PTV 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. When

using your LCD Rear PTV against a wall, keep it at least 10cm (4 inches) from the wall.

VIEWING

The major benefit of the HITACHI LCD Rear PTV 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.

RADIOFREQUENCYINTERFERENCE:

The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some

cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

BLOCK NOISE (DIGITAL INPUT):

Fuzzy blocks may appear in some area or the whole area of the screen. This is

usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps,

electrical drills, ghosting of the image and weak signals.
