Chapter 2	Pursuit of maximum levels of comfort and convenience
Smooth support for equipment malfunctions   In the event of equipment malfunction, the model name and information on the malfunction are transmitted to the PC, making it easy to request repair service.
What benefits will digital terrestrial broadcasts bring viewers?
In the event that an apparatus generates a problem, the network function enables the user to receive support smoothly. If a malfunction occurs or the improper use of network-connected equipment is detected, the message lamp on the communication adapter flashes to warn, and the PC can be used to check the type of the malfunction and corrective measures. When the product requires repair, information on the malfunction can be sent to the Information Center together with the request for repair service. As the registered model name, serial number, and other basic information is also sent with the repair request, there is no need for the user to frantically look for the warranty card or operation manual, as in the case of calling a support center by phone.
Users tend to forget to buy consumable parts, such as lint filters for washing machines, dust bags for vacuum cleaners, and replacement blades for electric shavers. These consumables and other parts can be ordered at any time by accessing the parts-sales website for members. Hitachi H&L is also planning a service that notifies users of the approximate parts replacement time for their registered products via network.
