HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW

HITACHI PC READY COLOR TV

ANTENNA

Unless your PC ready 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 PC ready color TV where
temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.

VIEWING

To view the PC ready 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 PC ready 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 PC ready color TV can be located in a different section of the room.

If the PC ready 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 4 feet from the side of the PC ready
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 PC ready color television. Move the speakers away from the PC ready color TV until there is no
picture distortion.
