Cleaning Recommendations
Normally, light dusting with a dry, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean. If cleaning beyond this is needed, please use the following guidelines:
First, turn off the TV and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Occasionally clean dust build-up from the air-intake grilles on the back and sides of the TV. Clean using a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.
Top and Sides of the TV
• Gently wipe down your TV with a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as cotton flannel, microfiber, or a clean cloth diaper, lightly moistened with water. Dry with a second dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.
• For oily dirt, add a few drops of mild liquid deter­gent, such as dishwashing detergent, to the water used to moisten the cloth. Rinse with a second cloth moistened only with water. Dry with a third dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.
Screen
• Follow the instructions for the top and sides, wiping gently in an up and down motion.
• Clean the entire screen evenly, not just sections of the screen.
• Do not allow liquid to drip down the screen, as some liquid may enter the TV through the gap between the screen and screen frame.
• You may purchase Mitsubishi Screen Cleaner, part number CLEANER-VSS, by calling
1 (800) 553-7278.
TV Software
• Do not attempt to update the software of this TV with software or USB drives not provided by or authorized by Mitsubishi Electric Visual Solutions America, Inc. Non-authorized software may damage the TV and will not be covered by the warranty.
• Automatic software updates will be downloaded over the internet to the TV if StreamTV is set up and connected to the internet. In Canada, WD-82CB1 users can receive automatic software updates although StreamTV services will be unavailable.
General Cleaning Precautions
• DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots or any crevice.
• DO NOT use any strong or abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the surfaces.
• DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia, bleach, alcohol, benzene, or thinners, as these can dull the surfaces.
• DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the
TV’s surfaces.
• DO NOT scrub or rub the TV harshly. Wipe it ge ntly.

Important Safety Instructions
Please read the following safeguards for your TV and retain for future reference. Always follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television.
1) Read these instructions.
2) Keep these instructions.
3) Heed all warnings.
4) Follow all instructions.
5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8) Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts speci­fied by the manufacturer or have the same character­istics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
11) Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12) Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13) Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
THIS REMINDER IS
PROVIDED TO CALL THE CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER’S ATTEN­TION TO ARTICLE 820-40 OF THE NEC THAT PROVIDES GUIDELINES FOR THE PROPER GROUNDING AND, IN PARTIC­ULAR, SPECIFIES THAT THE CABLE GROUND SHALL BE CON­NECTED TO THE GROUNDING SYSTEM OF THE BUILDING, AS CLOSE TO THE POINT OF CABLE ENTRY AS PRACTICAL.
