About your Plasma TV
This digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic and digital premium cable television programming by direct connection
to a cable system providing such programming. Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services such as video-on-demand, a cable
operator’s enhanced program guide and data-enhanced television services may require the use of a set-top box. For more information call
your local cable company.
Prevention of screen damages (Image Retention)
Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving)
patterns can be permanently imprinted onto your TV screen. Such
“SCREEN DAMAGES”
constitute misuse and are
NOT COVERED
by
your
Hitachi Factory Warranty
. For more information about how to prevent screen damages please refer to page 43.
If still images are left on the screen for more than 2.5 minutes, protection function will work automatically so that contrast reduces to
minimize image retention on the plasma display panel.
Please note that this is not a malfunction but it helps to minimize image retention.
The original contrast will restore after moving images are displayed for about 6 minutes. Original contrast can be restored quickly by turning
power On/Off with remote control or power switch on unit.
