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 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 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
The major benefit of the HITACHI Projection Television 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.

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.

I AGIC FOCUS I
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, which allows the TV to self-adjust. This process will take approximately 45 seconds.
If this button is pressed during this 45 second period, no change in picture quality will occur. After this
45 second self-adjust period, picture quality will be optimum.
(Do not move the TV during self-adjust.)
To enter this self-adjust mode, you may also select MAGIC FOCUS from the SETUP Menu.
However, this will display a message prompting you to press the front panel MAGIC FOCUS button.
MAGIC
FOCUS
Depending upon input signal, it may be necessary to activate MAGIC FOCUS twice. While viewing a 480i, 480P, or 720P signal the convergence will be corrected.
However, when you change to a 1080i input signal you will need to activate MAGIC FOCUS again.

MAGIC ¥ FOCUS
NOTES: 1. Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITAL CONVERGENCE.
At anytime during this convergence correction process, you may press the MAGIC FOCUS button to exit the MAGIC
FOCUS mode.
2. Do not press the MAGIC FOCUS button for more than three seconds.
This is only for extreme cases of misconvergence and requires assistance from service.
If one of the pictures shown below appears on the television screen, press the MAGIC FOCUS button a second time to exit this manual set up mode.

If you receive an image with a 4:3 aspect ratio, the image will be displayed at that ratio on your HDTV unless you specify otherwise.
The Screen Format menu allows you to adjust the image through the following options:
Normal
Choose this when receiving a 4:3 image and you want the on-screen appearance of the video to be a centered picture with side panels
(blank areas) on the right and left sides.
Full
Choose this when you want the television to adjust the 4:3 image horizontally so it fills your 16:9 screen. No side panels will be added, and the image is vertically unaltered. This setting is especially useful for viewing 16:9 formatted DVDs.

Dolby Pro Logic provides four separate sound channels: front left, center, front right, and surround.
For properly encoded programs marked I]B_._
the center sound channel contains the dialogue for the program viewed. The left and right channels produce sound effects that will match the action on the TV screen. For example, Dolby Pro Logic will enhance the effect of a car viewed driving from the left side of the TV screen to the right side. The surround channel (speakers) are placed behind the viewing area to add additional spatial sound effects.
To fully benefit from Dolby Pro Logic Surround, it is recommended that the surround speaker system be complete, as shown on page

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI PROJECTION
TV
AND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
DO
Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.
Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be used if the screen is extremely dirty.
Place your television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.
Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your television will not be used for a long period of time, for instances, when you go on vacation.
DO NOT
Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.
Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your television.
Do not touch the screen too often.
Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc.
Physical damage to the precision parts may result.
Avoid placing the remote control in a high humidity place or getting it wet.
Do not leave it on or near a heater.
Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit to cease operation.
When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether.
Replace the old batteries with two new AA size batteries.
Exposure of the viewing screen to prolonged direct sunlight or heat may cause the screen to permanently warp, resulting in a distorted picture.
7O
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.
¥ RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.
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.
