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 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 best spot for viewing. The drawings give several suggestions. 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 or 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 4 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. 11 HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PROJECTION TV CAUTION: The magnetic field of external speakers may cause the TV picture to distort if the speakers are placed too close to the television. Move the speakers away from the TV until there is no picture distortion. 12 HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS 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. Also make sure the cables are the correct length. 300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector Coaxial Antenna "F" Type 75-Ohm Connector This outdoor antenna cable must be connected For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable to an antenna adaptor (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).

This remote will not only control the television, a VCR, and a cable box, but also other electronic equipment which uses an infrared remote transmitter, by learning the transmitter's codes. Only infrared remote control codes can be stored in memory. Before starting the memory operation Since the infrared signals sent from the remote transmitter may be reflected by a wall, door, etc., even if the transmitter is not pointed directly at the device, it may operate. When storing the remote control codes of another device, turn OFF the power of the device (VCR, Cable Converter, etc.) If you do not do this, the device may work unexpectedly. The power could be turned ON, an important tape could be erased, the volume could increase too much, etc.. Click to see CLU-850GR in the USER position LEARNABLE BUTTONS These buttons can "learn" the codes of other remote control transmitters when the MULTI-PAGE select switch is set to the "USER" mode. MULTI-PAGE keys (A through L): No codes have been factory stored to these keys. Learning buttons other than MULTI-PAGE buttons: the codes for the TV have been stored in memory. However, the remote control codes of other equipment (cable converter, audio equipment, etc.) can be stored using the learning function as shown on page 27, 28. EXCLUSIVE BUTTONS These buttons are for operating the TV. Storing Operation Set the remote transmitter as shown below. Put the remote transmitter which contains the codes to be stored and the GENIUS REMOTE transmitter to face each other. (Distance should be 2 4 inches.) Set the LEARN/USE mode select switch located on the back of the Genius Remote to the LEARN position. 33 USING THE GENIUS REMOTE TO LEARN ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS Set the MULTI-PAGE select switch to "USER" position. Press one of the learnable buttons on the Genius Remote, ("7" in this example). This button will be used to store the new code. The READY indicator will flash at this time. (The light will remain lit for approximately 15 seconds. If no other function is performed at this time, the operation is canceled.) The Genius Remote is ready to receive an infrared code from another remote. Press and hold the button down on the other transmitter which contains the code to be stored, while the READY light is flashing on the Genius Remote. Release the button after both the READY and LEARN indicators light and then go OFF. When storing has been performed correctly, the LEARN indicator lights for about 2 seconds. If the storing was not done correctly, or the codes are too long to learn, or no more codes can be stored in memory due to memory overflow, the LEARN indicator and READY indicator will flash ON and OFF. Set the LEARN/USE mode select switch on the back of the Genius Remote to "USE" and check that the button to which the code is stored operates correctly. If it does not operate correctly, repeat from step 1. Repeat steps 3 to 5 to store other keys. To clear the stored codes from the USER mode Set the MULTI-PAGE select switch to the USER mode and LEARN/USE mode select switch to "LEARN". Then, press the POWER and the MUTE buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The "READY" and "LEARN" LEDs will light together. All MULTI-PAGE KEYS with codes are reset to their initial states. To remember stored codes, it is convenient to paste the labels (user's label) provided on the buttons for the USER page. If the correct labels are not provided, it is possible to write these letters on an empty label with a ballpoint pen. Example of User's Labels NOTE: 1. To operate your TV, be sure to point the Genius Remote at the remote sensor on the television. To operate other electronic equipment like a VCR, point the remote at the sensor on the device. 2. Refer to the instruction manual of the VCR for operation on the buttons exclusively for the VCR. 34 USING THE GENIUS REMOTE TO LEARN ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS 3. Be sure to keep the original remote transmitter even after storing its codes in the Genius Remote Control. 4. If the Genius Remote is left with its batteries removed, the learned codes in its memory are erased and will have to be reprogrammed into the memory. 5. The Genius Remote Control may not be able to learn certain special remote codes. CAUTION ON BATTERIES: 1. The Genius Remote Control is working when the LEARN indicator lights up when a button is pressed. 2. When you press a button and the learn indicator will not light up or if the operation is extremely slow, this is an indication that the batteries should be replaced. 3. Even if the batteries seem dead, do not remove them until you have replacement batteries ready to put in. The codes stored in memory will be erased in a few minutes without power. When replacing batteries, prepare the new ones first. 35 EASY GRAPHIC GUIDE EASY GRAPHIC GUIDE Press MENU on the remote control to display the different features on your HITACHI TV.

CONVERGENCE ADJUST Your 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. To simplify convergence, the following feature allows you to display a test pattern of horizontal and vertical lines on the screen. 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. 48 VIDEO Press the CURSOR Press the CURSOR , , to move the color displayed up or down. to move the color displayed left or right.
