The LCD television has two AC cords, one on the AVC center and the other on the LCD Display monitor. In case of an abnormal symptom, unplug both AC cords. ANTENNA Unless your LCD Television 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. When installing your LCD TV against a wall, keep it at least 10 cm (4 inches) from the wall.

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 8 to 18 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 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.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 92 CARE OF YOUR HITACHI LCD DISPLAY AND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL DO Dust the screen and frame with a cleaning cloth from the accessories pack. Clean the screen and frame 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 LCD Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places. Remove the plug (AVC Center/Display Monitor) from the wall outlet if your LCD Television will not be used for a long period of time, for instance, when you go on vacation. DO NOT Do not clean your screen with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth. Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your LCD Television. Avoid repeatedly touching the screen. Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. This may cause physical damage to the precision parts. 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 remote control unit to fail. When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. Replace the old batteries with two new “AA” or “AAA” size batteries as soon as possible to preserve the remote control precodes that were set for the devices. Pressing a remote control button with a “DEAD” battery might erase all precodes in memory. Do not use an old battery with a new battery. Exposing the screen to direct sunlight for a long period of time or heat may cause damage to the LCD screen. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 93 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. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine USEFUL INFO 94 HITACHI Liquid Crystal Display incorporates advanced power surge protection technology designed to protect against component or circuit damage due to external or internal voltage power surges. IF YOUR TELEVISION SHOULD APPEAR TO HAVE A LOSS OF POWER, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE: 1. Press the power switch (ON/OFF switch) once. 2. If there is still no power, wait 30 seconds and press the power switch again. 3. If there is still no power, unplug the power cord from the wall. Wait 30 seconds and plug the power cord back in. Press the power switch again. This protective technology should provide for years of lasting entertainment from your HITACHI Liquid Crystal Display.

This is due to the LCD panel drive circuit when it is functioning. This arching sound is normal and it is not a malfunction. Some infrared rays are emitted from the LCD display monitor’s panel that might affect other infrared controlling equipment. When receving still picture signals, (e.g. channel number indication or clock indication) for a while, you can see image-like when the picture varied. This is not a defect. The LCD panel is made from glass. Heavy shock on the front panel might damage it. When the LCD monitor is transported horizontally, the glass panel has the possibility of being broken or increasing the picture defects. At the time of transportation, horizontal style is prohibited. More-over, please treat the LCD panel with great care because of a precision apparatus. Please instruct transporters so that it should be put into the packing box at the time of shipment.(There is a possibility that breakage of the panel or defects will increase.) Rough transportation might cause damage to the panel and pixel failure. When a screen is seen at point-blank range, a random fine grain may be visible to a dark part. If an apparatus (VCR, etc.) antenna line is arranged near the monitor, the image may shake, or disturbance may be received. There is some time lag betweeen the picture and the sound. You can see lip motion that is delayed compared to the sound. Storing the LCD television for a period of more than 2 to 3 months without use might cause an unstable picture when the set is turned on. Operating altitude: 800 to 1,114hPa (6,194ft to -2,484ft). Operating temperature: 41˚F to 95˚F. Avoid operating the LCD TV below 41˚F LCD response speed may slow down when operating at these temperatures. This is a normal operating characteristic of the LCD monitor. Storage Altitude: 300 to 1,114hPa (31,912ft to -2,484ft). Storage temperature: 5˚F to 140˚F. Frequent use of the Power ON or OFF might trigger the power protection circuit. If the TV does not turn ON, please wait a little before turning ON again. 1 Arching sound from LCD display monitor’s panel. 2 Interference for infrared equipment. 3 Picture Image (Spectrum) 4 LCD Surface 5 Transportation 6 Granular spot Black dots and Bright points may appear on the LCD screen.

By using the DTV or the operating system software installed on the DTV (the "System Software") or any Upgrade (as defined below, and together with the System Software, the “Software”), you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS LICENSE AGREEMENT, DO NOT USE THE DTV OR THE SOFTWARE. 1. LICENSE GRANT. Hitachi grants to you, for the life of the DTV, a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use one copy of the Software on the DTV, subject to the following limitations and restrictions: a. You may not share, duplicate, republish or redistribute the Software; b. You may not resell, rent, lease, sublicense, gift, loan, assign or otherwise transfer the Software or any of your rights under this Agreement; c. You may not modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or make derivative works from the Software or use the Software in combination with any non-Hitachi software; and d. You may not use the Software for any commercial purpose. 2. VIOLATIONS; INDEMNITY. You understand and agree that your use of the Software in any manner except as permitted under this Agreement could constitute a serious crime and could subject you to damages and an award to Hitachi of attorneys’ fees in connection with your violation of this Agreement. You further understand that you may be held legally responsible for any copyright infringement or other violation of intellectual property rights caused or facilitated by your failure to abide by the terms of this Agreement. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Hitachi and its parent and affiliate companies harmless from and against any and all liability resulting from any breach by you of this Agreement. 3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The Software is protected by federal copyright laws, international copyright treaties and other intellectual property laws and treaties. The Software is licensed, not sold, to you. All right, title and interest in and to the Software and any intellectual property associated therewith, including any accompanying printed materials, shall belong to Hitachi and its licensors and suppliers.

In the event Hitachi provides you with a “flash card” or other media to effect or facilitate an Upgrade, you understand and acknowledge that your failure to return such flash card or other media to Hitachi as Hitachi may require could result in Hitachi placing your name and your DTV’s serial number on a “No Further Upgrades” list, which will prohibit you from receiving any subsequent Upgrades Hitachi may later release or make available.
