HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW  
HITACHI COLOR TV  
ANTENNA  
Unless your color 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 back cover of the set.  
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the color TV where  
temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.  
VIEWING  
To view the color television screen at its best, test various locations in the room. The drawings below show several  
suggestions.  
The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the color TV and about 6 to 9 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 color  
TV can be located in a different section of the room.  
If the color 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 color television, 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.

CAUTION: The magnetic field of external speakers may cause the picture to distort if the speakers are placed too close  
to the color television. Move the speakers away from the color TV until there is no picture distortion.

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.  
’’F’’ Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector  
For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna  
jack on the television.  
300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector  
This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna  
adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).  
Phono Connector  
S-VIDEO (Super Video) Connector  
Used on all standard video and audio cables which connect to  
inputs and outputs located on the television s rear jack panel and  
front control panel.  
This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs, and laserdisc  
players with an S-VIDEO feature in place of the standard video  
cable to produce a high quality picture.  
ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO REAR JACK PANEL  
To outdoor antenna  
or CATV cable  
VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV)  
When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect the outdoor  
antenna or CATV coaxial cable to the ANT A (75-Ohm) terminal. If  
you have a second antenna or cable TV system, connect the coaxial  
cable to the ANT B terminal.

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP)  
Your HITACHI Color TV 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. The Dual  
Tuner can operate with only one input (ANT A only) or two inputs (ANT A and ANT B).  
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 PIP CH button on the remote. The highlighted channel display  
will move with every press of the PIP CH button. When the top channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the main picture.  
When the lower channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the PIP sub-picture. This method of picture tuning is the same for  
one antenna input (ANT A only) and two antenna inputs (ANT A and ANT B).  
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.

AUDIO  
THEATER  
The following surround settings will reproduce the live sound you would hear in concert halls,  
sports stadiums, movie theaters, etc. with only two speakers.  
Surround  
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 internal speakers of your HITACHI Television. If your HITACHI Television is connected to an  
external audio system, SRS will also create an incredible 3D sound experience from two speakers and even enhance a complete  
multi-speaker surround sound system.  
Technology  
Sound reproduction quality enhancement system. The BBE technology produces sound that is natural and crisp from just two  
speakers (or) the two internal speakers of your HITACHI television. If your HITACHI 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  
reproduction of the original performance. BBE brings to the listener s ear a more complete and accurate reproduction of the original  
performance. 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  
produced live.

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI COLOR 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.

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.
