HITACHI ENVIRONMENTAL NOTICE
The Environment and You
HITACHI are signatories to the commitment made by the Consumer Electronics Industry on Reducing Energy
Consumption by Televisions and Video Recorders in Standby.
HOW
YOU CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE ENVIRONMENT BY HELPING
TO REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND WASTE!
Even though your TV has a low standby power consumption, you can reduce waste to zero if you switch off the set
at the mains when it is not intended to be used for long periods i.e. for an Hour or so. TV sets should certainly be
switched off overnight or when you are away from home. Other factors should also be considered when operating
your TV. Reducing volume settings to sensible levels can reduce power consumption as well as reducing noise pol-
lution, and reducing the contrast can also provide a more pleasing picture in lower ambient lighting conditions as
well as reducing power consumption.
Hitachi Home Electronics (Europe) Ltd. Manufacturing Site in Wales is a BSI Registered Company, and has been
assessed to ISO 9001 Quality Management Standard, certificate number FM 32366 and the Environmental Quality
Management Standard ISO 14001, certificate number EMS 36168, under which your Television has been manu-
factured.
The paper used for this Operating Guide has been produced from sustainable forests, part of Hitachi’s on going
commitment to the global environment.
