Frequently Asked Questions - DVPF35U HITACHI

How to connect the Hitachi DVPF35U to a TV?

Use the supplied RF cable to connect the ANT OUT output of the VCR/DVD to the TV's antenna input. You can also use the audio/video cables (red/white/yellow) for better quality. If your TV is compatible, use the S-Video or Component output. Make sure to select channel 3 or 4 on the TV (depending on the RF output setting).

The video product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the video product. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer's instructions and should use a PORTABLE CART WARNING (Symbol provided by RETAC)
   PORTABLE CART WARNING (Symbol provided by RETAC)

mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

1. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the video product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the video product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This video product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.
2. Power Sources - This video product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
3. Grounding or Polarization - This video product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

5. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the video product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, provides information with regard to

proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. (Fig. A)

FIGURE A EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE GROUND CLAMP ELECTRIC SERVICE EQUIPMENT NEC - NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE S2898A ANTENNA LEAD WIRE ANTENNA DISCHARGE UNIT (NEC SECTION 810-20) GROUNDING CONDUCTORS (NEC SECTION 810-21) GROUND CLAMP POWER SERVICE GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM (NEC ART 250, PART H)

1. Lightning - For added protection for this video product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the video product due to lightning and power-line surges.
2. Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
3. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
4. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this video product through any openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.
5. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this video product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

a. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the video product.
c. If the video product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the video product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the video product to its normal operation.
e. If the video product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f. When the video product exhibits a distinct change in performance this indicates a need for service.

If your TV is compatible with 525p/480p progressive scanning and you want to enjoy that high quality picture;

You must select the connection Method 3 above and progressive scanning mode. To set the mode, set "PROGRESSIVE" to "ON" in the DISPLAY setting (refer to page 24). "P.SCAN" will appear on the display of this unit. (The progressive scanning is not available in the VCR mode.) Use a commercially available adaptor if the video input jacks of your TVs or monitors are the BNC type.

If your TV is not compatible with progressive scanning;

Use this unit in interlace mode. Make sure that no "P.SCAN" is on the display of this unit. If so, set "PROGRESSIVE" to "OFF" by either pressing PLAY ▶ for 5 seconds or changing the DISPLAY setting (refer to page 24). "P.SCAN" on the display of this unit will disappear.
