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.
''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.

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.
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.

MAGIC FOCUS
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 located on the front control panel, which allows the TV
to self-adjust. Press this MAGIC FOCUS button and the convergence self adjustment willl start and this process will take approximately
40 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 40 second self-adjust period,
picture quality will be optimum. (Do not move the TV during self-adjust.)
You may also select MAGIC FOCUS from the SETUP Menu.
MAGIC
FOCUS
MAGIC FOCUS
NOTES: 1. For MAGIC FOCUS to perform at it’s best, the television must be turned “ON” and heat run for a minimum of 20
minutes before pressing MAGIC FOCUS on the front panel.
2. 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.

The Video Display feature allows you to display 1080i or 540P signal mode. This feature is not available if Aspect 5 (1080i through mode)
is selected.
NOTE:
1. If Comp Color Type is set improperly (does not match actual input signal), the color and tint of the main picture will be
abnormal.
2. You must be tuned to VIDEO: 4 or 5 input and have a component hooked up to the Y-P P input jacks to
B R
access all Picture Formats menu.
3. All settings will affect only the component input you are currently viewing. If you are using both sets of component
input jacks, be sure to set the Picture Formats feature for both inputs (set VIDEO:4 AND
VIDEO:5).
4. Aspect 5 is for 1080i signal format only. Selecting Aspect 5 allows the 1080i signals to appear on the TV screen as
the broadcaster sends them. Aspect 5 does not allow the 1080i to go to the TV’s internal flex converter.
5. Aspect 5 must be selected from the OSD menu at all times. The aspect button on the remote control will skip the
Aspect 5 feature.
6. Using Aspect 5 will shorten the life of the PRT guns due to no gray panel at the top and bottom of the TV screen.

MOVIE MODE 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 MOVIE MODE is selected from the THEATER menu, your Hitachi Projection Television will activate the circuitry for this
special feature to improve video performance when watching film based sources. This 3:2 pulldown detection will only work
in MOVIE MODE.
When MUSIC mode is chosen, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 75%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - COOL, LOUDNESS - OFF, PERFECT VOLUME - OFF, SURROUND - SRS and BBE.
When SPORTS mode is chosen, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 100%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - COOL, BASS - 63%, LOUDNESS - OFF, PERFECT VOLUME - OFF,
SURROUND - SRS.
You can customize each of the above modes (NEWS, MOVIE, MUSIC and SPORTS) to your preference to increase viewing performance
and pleasure, depending upon the video program being viewed. However, if RESET is selected, all modes will reset to the initial
conditions as explained above.
When RESET is selected, it will take approximately two seconds to return to factory conditions (SPORTS mode).
Press EXIT to quit menu or CURSOR ̇ to return to previous menu.

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.
BBE functions the same manner on TV mode and on VIDEO mode.

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.
61
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.
