32HDT20
ANTENNA
Unless your Plasma Television 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.
6
HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PLASMA TELEVISION
VIEWING
The major benefit of the HITACHI Plasma 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 8 to 18 feet from the

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.

Interference for infrared
equipment.
Some infrared rays are emitted from the plasma display monitor’s panel that might affect other
infrared controlling equipment.
Bright and dark spots
High-precision technology is used to manufacture the plasma display panel; But in some
cases, there are minor defects in some parts of the screen. Points that do not light, points
with brightness different from that of the perphery, points with color different from that of the
periphery, etc. Some pixels will always be on or always off. Please note that this is not a
malfunction.

5
Picture Image (Spectrum) When receving still picture signals, (e.g. channel number indication or clock indication) for a
while, you can see image-like when the picture varied. This is not a defect.
Display panel surface
The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of internal radiation. In
temperature is too high some cases, this may cause the temperature of the panel surface to increase. Please note
that this is not a malfunction. The Plasma TV surface temperature is higher than a
Cathode-ray-tube.

7
Plasma Surface
Transportation
The plasma panel is made from glass. Heavy shock on the front panel might damage it.
When the PDP monitor is transported horizontally, the glass panel has the possibility of being
broken or increasing the picture defects. At the time of transportation, horizontal style is
prohibited. More-over, please treat the plasma panel with great care because of a precision
apparatus. Please instruct transporters so that it should be put into the packing box at the time
of shipment.(There is a possibility that breakage of the panel or defects will increase.)
Rough transportation might cause damage to the panel and pixel failure.
8
Image retention
The plasma monitor illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite
illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor will be
degraded to such extent that stationary images would burn-in that part of the screen as
grayed-out images.
Tips to prevent such image retention are:
- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or hi-contrast images, such as
monochrome characters and graphic patterns, for long.
- Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at appropriate
intervals of time, or try to move them using screen saver function.
- Turn down the contrast and brightness controls.
9
Luminosity and contrast PDP television has luminosity and low contrast compared with CRT television.
10 Granular spots
When a screen is seen at point-blank range, a random fine grain may be visible to a dark part.
11 Disturnbance to video
apparatus
If an apparatus (VCR, etc.) antenna line is arranged near the monitor, the image may shake,
or disturbance may be received.
12 Lip Sync
There is some time lag betweeen the picture and the sound. You can see lip motion that is
delayed compared to the sound.
13 About the use
Electric discharge/luminescence characteristic of the PDP panel also changes with peripheral
temperature. Moreover, since there is also high power consumption value, a specified
environment of PDP
television (temperature) temperature environment is required.
14 Caution on prolonged
storage
Storing the plasma television for a period of more than 2 to 3 months without use might cause
an unstable picture when the set is turned on.
7
HOOKUP CABLES
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.

CONNECTING A/V NETWORK
Your Hitachi Plasma Television is equiped with an A/V Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video
equipment (VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using
your Hitachi Plasma TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command
without the equipment’s remote control.
The Plasma Television AVC Center has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video
components. Therefore, you can connect the Plasma Television with up to four components. Please see the following example of
an A/V Network setup between your Hitachi Plasma Television and external Audio/Video equipment (VCR and DVD Player).

TIPS ON REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
S-VIDEO connections are provided for high performance laserdisc players, VCRs etc. that have this feature. Use these connections
in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

ተ ASPECT button
Press this button to quickly change the picture format ASPECT ratio.
Depending on the input signal, the picture format ratio allows you to adjust the images through the following options.
4:3 STANDARD
Use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) images. Side panels (gray areas) are placed to the
left and right of the image to preserve the original aspect ratio of the source. Note: Use this mode for
only 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phospors. Phosphors in the lighted
area of the picture will age more rapidly than the black areas.
4:3 EXPANDED
use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) sources by expanding the outer edges of the image
to fill the 16:9 screen. The center of the image remains unaltered.
4:3 Zoom1/Zoom2
16:9 STANDARD
Use these aspect modes to zoom in on conventional (4:3) sources.
Use this aspect mode to display 16:9 sources like HDTV and DVD’s preserving the original 16:9 aspect

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP)
Your HITACHI Plasma 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.
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.

as shown on page 39. The CD, TAPE or AMP button light will flash 3 times if the code was accepted.
5. Aim the remote at the Audio component and press the POWER button. The remote will turn off your Audio component if the cor-
rect two digit preset code is entered. When this occurs, the remote control is programmed for your Audio component. If the Audio
component does not turn off, try a different two digit preset code.
6. The remote will now control your Audio component.
7. Repeat steps 1 - 6 if you wish to program the remote to control another Audio component. Be sure to use a different Audio button
on the remote, since only one component can be programmed per button.

NOTE:
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 MOVIES mode is selected from the PICTURE MODE menu, your Hitachi Plasma 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 MOVIES mode.
When NEWS mode is selected, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 75%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - MEDIUM, TruBass - MEDIUM, PERFECT VOLUME - ON, MATRIX SURROUND -
OFF,
AUTO CONTRAST - ON.
When MUSIC mode is selected, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 75%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - HIGH, TruBass - MEDIUM, PERFECT VOLUME - OFF, MATRIX SURROUND - OFF,
AUTO CONTRAST - ON.
You can customize each of the above modes (SPORTS, MOVIES, NEWS and MUSIC) to your preference to increase viewing per-
formance and pleasure, depending upon the video program being viewed. If RESET is selected, only the selected mode will reset to the
initial conditions as explained above.
If RESET is selected in SPORTS mode, only SPORTS MODE will return to factory conditions.

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI PLASMA DISPLAY
AND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
DO
Dust the screen 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 Plasma Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.
Remove the plug (AVC Center/Display Monitor) from the wall outlet if your Plasma Television will not be used for
a long period of time, for instance, when you go on vacation.
DO NOT
Do not clean your screen with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.
Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your Plasma Television.
Avoid repeatedly touching the screen.
Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. This may cause physical damage
to the precision parts.
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 remote control unit to fail.
When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or become unresponsive. Replace the old
batteries with two new “AA” size batteries. Do not use an old battery with a new battery.
Exposing the screen to direct sunlightfor a long period of time or heat may cause damage to the plasma screen.

USEFUL INFO
• 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 posi-
tion 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 with-
out 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.
• PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS
This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent a prob-
lem to Radio receivers. If this monitor causes a problem to Radio receivers, then take the follow-
ing steps:
- Keep the monitor away from Radio.
- Adjust Radio antennas in order for the monitor not to receive
interference.
- The antenna cable of Radio should be kept away from the monitor.
- Use a coaxial cable for antenna.
You can check if this monitor influences Radio receivers by turning off all other equipment other
than the monitor.
If you find a problem receiveing Radio when using the monitor, check the instructions mentioned
above.
• Adjust the dot clock frequency and phase.
(Adjust the dot clock frequency first, the dot clock
phase next.)
• The display image appears
scrolling diagonal.
• Text displayed across the
screen appears vertically
streaked, with the characters
in vertical columns blurred.
