Important Safety Instructions

To the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to

call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-44 of

the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular,

specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding

system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

SAFETY POINTS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT YOUR HITACHI LCD TELEVISION

Our reputation has been built on the quality, performance, and ease of service of Hitachi LCD televisions.
Safety is also foremost in our minds in the design of these units. To help you operate these products properly, this section illustrates safety

tips which will be of benefit to you. Please read it carefully and apply the knowledge you obtain from it to the proper operation of your Hitachi

LCD television.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral

triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated

“dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of a

sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to a person.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle, is intended to

alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance

(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

NOTE

READ BEFORE OPERATING EQUIPMENT

Follow all warnings and instructions marked on this LCD television.

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions.

3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions.

5. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-

type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider

than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and

a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong

are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit

into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the

obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched

particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point

where they exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the

manufacturer.

12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or

table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the

apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when

moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid

injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused

for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing

is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any

way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid

has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the

apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not

operate normally, or has been dropped.

15. Televisions are 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 which could

cause the product to overturn resulting in product damage

and/or personal injury.

16. Follow instructions for wall, shelf or ceiling mounting as

recommended by the manufacturer.

17. An outdoor antenna should not be located in the vicinity of

overhead power lines or other electrical circuits.

18. If an outside antenna is connected to the receiver be sure the

antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection

against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section

810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,

provides information with respect to proper grounding for the

mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire

to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding connectors,

location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding

electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Power source

This LCD television is designed to operate on 120 volts 60 Hz, AC current. Insert the power cord into a 120 volts 60 Hz outlet. The mains

plug is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable.

To prevent electric shock, do not use the LCD television’s (polarized) plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the

blades and ground terminal can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

Never connect the LCD television to 50 Hz, direct current, or anything other than the specified voltage.

This television’s factory default settings as shipped meet ENERGY STAR requirements.

Please see the Energy Options section of this owners guide for more energy saving tips.

CAUTION

Never remove the back cover of the LCD television as this can expose you to very high voltages and other

hazards. If the television does not operate properly, unplug the LCD television and call your authorized dealer

or service center.

Adjust only those controls that are covered in the instructions, as improper changes or modifications not

expressly approved by Hitachi could void the user’s warranty.
