WARNING: Never place a television set in an unstable location. A television set may fall and cause, serious personal injury or death.

Many injuries, particularly to children, can be avoided by taking simple precautions such as:

- Use cabinets or stands recommended by the manufacturer of the television set.

- Only use furniture that can safely support the television set.

- Ensure the television set is not overhanging the edge of the supporting furniture.

- Do not place the television set on tall furniture (for example, cupboards of bookcases) without anchoring both the furniture and the television set to a suitable support.

- Do not place the television set on cloth or other materials that may be located between the television set and supporting furniture.

- Educete children about the dangers of climbing on furniture to reach the television set or its controls.

If your existing television set is being retained and relocated, observe the above precautions.

CONDENSATION

Moisture will form in the operating section of the unit if the unit is brought from cool surroundings into a warm room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, unit's performance will be impaired. To prevent this, let the unit stand in its new surroundings for about an hour before switching it on, or make sure that the room temperature rises gradually.

Condensation may also form during the summer if the unit is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the location of the unit.

HOW TO HANDLE THE LCD PANEL

• Do not press hard or jolt the LCD panel. It may cause the LCD panel glass to break and injury may occur.

• If the LCD panel is broken, make absolutely sure that you do not touch the liquid in the panel. This may cause skin inflammation.

If the liquid gets in your mouth, immediately gargle and consult with your doctor. Also, if the liquid gets in your eyes or touches your skin, consult with your doctor after rinsing for at least 15 minutes or longer in clean water.

Possible Adverse Effects on LCD Panel: If a fixed (non-moving) pattern remains on the LCD Panel for long periods of time, the image can become permanently engrained in the LCD Panel and cause subtle but permanent ghost images. This type of damage is NOT

COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY. Never leave your LCD Panel on for long periods of time while it is displaying the following formats or images:

• Fixed Images, such as stock tickers, video game patterns, TV station logos, and websites.

• Special Formats that do not use the entire screen. For example, viewing letterbox style (16:9) media on a normal (4:3) display (black bars at top and bottom of screen); or viewing normal style (4:3) media on a widescreen (16:9) display (black bars on left and right sides of screen).

The following symptoms are not signs of malfunction but technical limitation. Therefore we disclaim any responsibility for these symptoms.

• LCD Panels are manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however sometimes parts of the screen may be missing picture elements or have luminous spots.

This is not a sign of a malfunction.

• Do not install the LCD Panel near electronic equipment that produces electromagnetic waves. Some equipment placed too near this unit may cause interference.

• Effect on infrared devices – There may be interference while using infrared devices such as infrared cordless headphones.

Power source

To prevent electric shock, do not use the television’s (AC) plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Never connect the television to direct current or anything other than the specified volatage.

Warning

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

Caution

Never remove the back cover of the television as this can expose you to very high voltages and other hazards. If the television does not operate properly, unplug the television and call your authorized dealer or service center.

Adjust only those controls that are covered in the instructions, as improper changes or modifications not expressly approved by

Hitachi could void the user’s warranty.

Chapter 3 Addition Information

Reception disturbances

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 streaks, and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

• Keep the television away from Radio.

• Adjust Radio antennas in order for the television not to receive interference.

• The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the television.

• Use a coaxial cable for antenna.

• You can check if this television influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other than the television. If you find a problem receiving Radio when using the television, check the instructions mentioned above.

BLOCK NOISE or FREEZE (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 lost or weak receiving signals.

NOTE:

• 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.
