This is to prevent a problem to Radio receivers. • 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. Precautions for the cable connection • Do ensure that all connections, (including the power plug, extension leads and interconnections between the pieces of equipment), are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. Switch off and withdraw the power plug before making or changing connections. • Confirm the connector is fixed tightly when the signal cable is connected. Also confirm the screws on the connector are tightened. • Plug the power cord of the television into a different socket from that for other equipment, such as Radio etc. • Use a plug with ground terminal and make sure that it connects to the ground. Precaution during transportation Please pay attention when you transport this television because it is heavy. Furthermore, use the original carton box and its packaging materials when the television is transported. Failure to transport the television in any carton except the original carton may result in damage to the television. Save the original carton box and all packing material. Do not physically impact the remote control. A physical impact could cause damage or malfunction of the remote control. • Take care not to drop the remote control. • Do not place heavy objects on the remote control. Avoid strong rays. Any strong rays (such as direct sun rays or room lighting) onto the remote control sensors could invalidate the remote control. Avoid radio interference. Any interfering radiation could cause distorted images or noises. • Avoid radio generator such as a mobile telephone, transceiver, etc. around the television. Set the sound volume at a suitable level. It is better to keep the volume level low and close the windows at night to protect the neighborhood environment. Precautions for the installation • Do not use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws - to ensure complete safety, always fit the manufacturers approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions. • Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the dealer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. • This product is designed to comply with the recommended safety standards for tilt and stability. Do not apply excessive pulling force to the front, or top, of the cabinet that could cause the product to overturn resulting in product damage and/or personal injury. • Follow instructions for wall, shelf or ceiling mounting as recommended by the manufacturer. • Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. • Consult your dealer if you are in any doubt about installation, operation or safety of your equipment. Other precautions • Do not leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a stand-by mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and show your family how to do this. Make special arrangements for infirm or handicapped people. • Disposal of this product may require specific instructions pertaining to your resident region. • Never guess or take any chances with electrical equipment of any kind - it is better to be safe than sorry! 3V90441A [E] P01-07 31/10/05, 9:21 AM 7 32LD380TA HITACHI 8 ABOUT LCD PANEL Common phenomena of LCD Panel The following are the common phenomena when operating LCD Panel due to its structural reason. Please note that they are not malfunctions. •Defective Spots on Panel The LCD panel is manufactured with high-precision technology. However, there might be some spots that are not emitted, brighter than the others, or in different colors, etc. •Surface on Panel The LCD panel displays images by blinking the fluorescent lamps internally. This could raise the temperature of the display surface. In addition, do not impact strongly on the surface of the panel because LCD panel is made with fine processing glass. •Residual image When a still image or menu is displayed on the screen for a short time (about a minute)and then switches to another image, it may leave an “after-image” on the screen. The residual image will disappear on its own. •The Usage under the Low Temperature Environment Because of the structural characteristics of the LCD panel, the response speed of the LCD panel becomes slower when the ambient temperature around the monitor becomes too low. In some cases, it may cause the residual image. The residual image will disappear on its own as the temperature goes up and back to normal. 3V90441A [E] P08 31/10/05, 9:21 AM 8 32LD380TA HITACHI 9 ENGLISH Location of controls Description of Indicators and Controls 1.

Connect the antenna as shown below. Connect the unit with an outdoor antenna (A) or a cable-net (B). In case of reception disturbance, consult with a specialist of antenna. (A) Outdoor antenna: If the outdoor antenna already exists, you can also connect to it for analog TV- program. (B) Antenna connection: The built-in Hyperband CATV tuner can receive all analog cable television programs. (C) Audio/Video/Subwoofer output: To connect with an audio amplifier and external speakers or Subwoofer, and adjust the audio level using the TV’s remote control. To control the audio, turn off the TV's built-in speakers 28 . Signal from Video output jack are composite video signals.

Check the Owner's Manual provided with each component for the location of video and audio inputs and outputs. The connection diagrams below are offered as suggestions. You may need to modify them to accommo- date your particular assortment of components. The diagrams are intended to show component video and audio interconnections only. Note: Select a appropriate external input mode 18 . To connect the LCD television to a VCR with an S-Video cord If you connect a VCR with a S-VIDEO cord to the S-VIDEO IN jack on the rear of the LCD television, you must also connect the audio cords to the AUDIO IN jacks on the rear of the LCD television. The S-VIDEO cord only carries the video signal. The audio signal is separate. NOTE: When the S-video cord and the video cord are connected to each jack at the same time, the S-video cord takes precedence over the video cord.
