Frequently Asked Questions - 51G500 HITACHI
How do I connect a DVD player to the 51G500?
Use the Component video inputs (Y, Pb, Pr) for the best picture. Connect the audio cables to the matching RCA L/R inputs. If your DVD player has composite output, use the yellow video jack and the same audio jacks.
What is the maximum resolution this TV can display?
The native resolution is 1280 x 720, which is HD Ready. It can accept 1080i and 720p signals, then downscales them to 720p for display.
How do I program the channels?
Press MENU on the remote, select Channel then Auto Search. The TV will scan for available analog and digital channels. After scanning, you can reorder your favorite channels in the channel list.
Why does the picture appear slightly out of focus?
Rear projection sets require a convergence adjustment if the picture looks soft or colors are misaligned. Go to PICTURE > CONVERGENCE and run the auto convergence, or manually fine-tune it with the remote.
Can I use a modern streaming device with this TV?
Yes, connect your streaming device (Roku, Fire TV, etc.) via component cables or a VGA input if your device supports it. For HDMI-only devices, you will need an HDMI-to-component converter.
How should I clean the projection screen?
Turn the TV off and wait for the screen to cool. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the screen. Avoid any liquids or spray cleaners, as they can damage the coating.
What should I do if the remote control stops working?
First, check the batteries and replace them if needed. Make sure the IR emitter on the TV is unobstructed. If the remote still does not work, use the control panel on the TV to navigate, and consider resetting the remote by removing batteries for 30 seconds.
Is there a sleep timer function?
Yes, press SLEEP on the remote repeatedly to set a timer from 30 to 120 minutes. The TV will automatically turn off after the selected time, saving energy.
What does the '3D comb filter' do?
The 3D comb filter separates luminance and color signals more accurately than a standard comb filter. It reduces dot crawl and color bleeding, resulting in sharper detail and cleaner edges for analog video sources.
Can I mount this TV on the wall?
This is a rear projection television and is not designed for wall mounting. It is meant to be placed on a sturdy, flat, level surface. Follow the spacing guidelines in the manual to ensure proper ventilation.
