FIRST TIME USE How To Install Your New Hitachi Plasma Television To take measures to prevent the Plasma Television from tipping over and prevent possible injury it is important to mount the unit in a stable and flat surface. Caution when moving the main unit As this product is heavy, whenever it is moved, at least two people are required to transport it safely. Whenever the unit is moved it should be lifted forward using the top and base on both sides of the Television for stability. When moving the Television, lift from the handles (42"), or use the corners (50") then support the top frame as shown below. 42" 50" NOTES • Do not block the ventilation holes of the Plasma Television. Blocking the ventilation holes might cause fire or defect. • In case of an abnormal symptom, unplug the AC cord and contact 800-HITACHI. • If you purchased a wall mount bracket, please ask for professional installer. Do not try to install by yourself. • Install the unit at a proper area where it does not expose anyone to any danger of hitting themselves (for example their hands, head or face, etc.) against the edge of the unit that could cause personal injury. Location Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the reflection. Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set. In order to prevent an internal temperature increase, maintain a space of 10 cm (4 inches) from the sides/back of the Television, and 30 cm (12 inches) from the top of the television to the ceiling. 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. AC Cord Installation The AC cord provided with your new Plasma Television needs to be installed correctly to avoid its disconnection when rotating the TV on its Table Top Stand.
