HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI COLOR 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 Color 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 drawings give several suggestions The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the 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 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 wi ! l 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 . close to the television . Move the magnetic field source away from the television untit there is no picture CAUTION : Magnetic fields , such as those of external speakers , may cause the picture to distort if they are placed too distortion , 7

For best performance , video cables should use 75 - Ohm coaxial shielded wire . Cables can be purchased from most stores that sei ! 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 . © 300 * Ohm Twin Lead Connector " F " Type 75 - Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna For connecting RF signals ( antenna or cable TV ) to the antenna adapter ( 300 _ Ohm to 75 - Ohm ) . jack on the television .
