HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI LCD REAR PTV  
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.  
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.  
IMPORTANT NOTES:  
1. A small number of missing, discolored, or lit all the time dots or pixels is characteristic of TFT LCD technology due to  
manufacturing process for such technology irrespective of manufacturer. If your LCD has defective pixels, it should not be  
considered defective.  
2. Since LCD Rear PTV incorporates a high pressure lamp to display an image, it may take about one minute for the picture to  
become stable, after the power has been turned on. After extended use, the picture may darken, the color may look unusual,  
or the lamp “goes out,” (burns out). You may hear a “pop” sound when the lamp “goes out.” These are common  
characteristics of the lamp, and should not be considered defective.  
3. LCD Rear PTV incorporates an advanced cooling fan system to prevent from overheating. If you hear the cooling fan, it should  
not be considered defective.  
4. If you hear a “cracking” sound from the TV cabinet, it is due to the TV’s cabinet expanding and contracting due to room  
temperature changes. It has no effect on the TV’s functions.  
5. The LCD Rear PTV cabinet is constructed with all plastic. Make sure to place it on a flat surface. An uneven surface might  
warp the cabinet and reduce the picture quality.

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.

CONNECTING EXTERNAL VIDEO DEVICES  
The exact arrangement you use to connect the VCR, camcorder, laserdisc player, DVD player, or HDTV Set Top Box to your TV set is  
dependent on the model and features of each component. Check the owner’s manual of each component for the location of video  
and audio inputs and outputs.  
The following connection diagrams are offered as suggestions. However, you may need to modify them to accommodate your partic-  
ular assortment of components and features. For best performance, video and audio cables should be made from coaxial shielded  
wire.  
Before Operating External Video Source

NOTES: 1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is  
played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.  
2. The DVI-HDTV input on INPUT 1 contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content  
Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using DVI connections to  
prevent illegal copying of video contents.  
3. DVI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of  
uncompressed video to a display.  
4. The connected digital output device controls the DVI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines  
final video appearance.

CONNECTING AV NETWORK  
Your Hitachi LCD TV is equipped with an AV Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video equipment  
(VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using your Hitachi  
TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command without the equip-  
ment’s remote control.  
The television rear panel has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video components.  
Therefore, you can connect the Television with up to four components and control them with the TV remote control. Please see the  
following example of an AV Network setup between your Hitachi LCD TV and external Audio/Video equipment (VCR and DVD  
Player).

THE REMOTE CONTROL  
In addition to controlling all the functions on your HITACHI LCD Rear PTV, the new remote control is designed to operate differ-  
ent types of VCRs, CATV (Cable TV) converters, set-top-box, satellite receiver, DVD players, and other audio equipment with one

This function of the AV NET makes it more expandable because it allows the user to use equipment that is not supported by the  
pre-code library, listed on page 22. For example, after programming your equipment to the AV NET and the soft keys do not work,  
the user just has to follow the steps below. The AV NET Learning Wizard will transfer any remote button IR code of your equip-  
ment to the soft keys of your AV NET. If all remote button transfers are successful, the user can now control their equipment by  
using the TV remote control.

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP)  
Your HITACHI LCD Rear PTV incorporates dual tuner technology designed for improved viewing enjoyment. This dual tuner feature  
allows you to view antenna inputs on both the main picture and sub-picture simultaneously, with separate tuning control for each.  
ANT A input can be viewed as both the main picture and the sub-picture simultaneously. Ant B can only be viewed as a main picture.  
To select between main picture and PIP sub-picture tuning, press the SWAP button on the remote. The green highlighted channel  
display will move with every press of the SWAP button.  
The Picture-in-Picture feature is convenient when you want to watch more than one program at the same time. You can watch a TV  
program while viewing other programs from the Ant A source or any of the video inputs.

Auto Movie Mode  
The Auto Movie Mode function turns ON or OFF the 3:2 PULLDOWN DETECTION SPECIAL FEATURE.  
Theatrical movies are shot on film at 24 frames or still pictures per second, instead of 30 frames or 60 fields  
like video. When film is transferred to video for television viewing, the disparity between the two frame rates  
must be reconciled. This involves a process known as 3:2 pulldown.  
When Auto Movie Mode is turned On from the Video menu, your Hitachi LCD TV will activate the circuitry  
for this special feature to improve video performance when watching film based sources.  
NOTE:  
1. When using Progressive Scan Component or DVI-HDTV input (Ex. 480p, 720p), Auto Movie Mode will not be  
available (grayed out).  
2. All Video settings are independent of each other based on it’s input (Ant A/B, Inputs 1~5).

Based on the principles of the human hearing system, SRS technology delivers and exciting and realistic 3D Sound experience from  
just two external speakers (or) the two channel speakers of your HITACHI LCD television. If your HITACHI LCD television is connect-  
ed to an external audio system, SRS will also create an incredible 3D sound experience from two speakers and even enhance a com-  
plete multi-speaker surround sound system.

Technology  
Sound reproduction quality enhancement system. The BBE technology produces sound that is natural and crisp from just two speak-  
ers (or) the two channel speakers of your HITACHI LCD television. If your HITACHI LCD television is connected to an external audio  
system, BBE will also create an incredible crisp sound experience from two speakers and even more complete and accurate repro-  
duction of the original performance. BBE brings to the listener’s ear a more complete and accurate reproduction of the original per-  
formance. Each voice, speaking or singing, each instrument or sound effect is presented with its attendant harmonics or partials more  
clearly audible. The ear can then more easily recognize the unique tonal colors of each sound as though the sound was being pro-  
duced live.

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI TELEVISION  
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 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.  
Exposure of the viewing screen to prolonged direct sunlight or heat may cause the screen to permanently warp,  
resulting in a distorted picture.  
73  
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.
