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.
To avoid the risk of injury to the eyes and face, do not
look directly into the air vents while the television is
operating.
To avoid the risk of fire, do not use flammable solvents
(such as benzene or paint solvents) or flammable aerosols (such as polishes, cleaners, or insecticides) near
the television while it is operating or cooling.

(High-Definition Multimedia
Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and
high-definition digital video formats, bitstream Dolby
Digital 5.1, and PCM digital stereo audio. These inputs
are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection)
compliant.
Mitsubishi recommends you use high-speed HDMI
cables to connect newer source devices incorporating
HDMI technology. High-speed cables bring you the full
benefits of Deep Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video
signals. To connect a device’s DVI output to the TV’s
HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus
an analog audio cable. Connect the audio cable to the
DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT
from your DVI device.

H DMI Cable Categories
HDMI cables are available as Standard and High-Speed
types.
• High-Speed HDMI Cables. Blu-ray players, newer
DVD players, video games, 3D content, and set-top
boxes require High-Speed HDMI cables, suitable
for clock frequencies up to 340 MHz or data rates
of up to 10.2 gigabits per second. Use high-speed
cables for 1080p HD signals carrying extended color
encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep
Color). High-Speed HDMI cables are also suitable for
standard HDTV signals.
• Standard HDMI Cables. Standard HDMI cables
may be unmarked. They are suitable for standard
HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals with 8-bit color
depth. Use Standard HDMI cables for clock frequencies up to 74.25 MHz or data rates of up to 2.23
gigabits per second.

Inputs and Outputs, continued
Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com-
pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD
player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i,
and 1080p video formats.
The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D

2. ANT ( Antenna)
Connect your main antenna or direct cable service
(without a cable box) to
ANT
. The
ANT
input can
receive digital and analog over-the-air channels from
a VHF/UHF antenna or non-scrambled digital/analog
cable source.
3. 3D GL ASSES EMITTER (642 Series only)
Use this jack for the special synchronization emitter sup-
plied with some 3D glasses. The emitter sends out a
signal that synchronizes your 3D glasses with the screen
display.
4. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio
to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Incoming
analog audio is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio.
If you have a digital A/V receiver, this is the only audio
connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.
5. Y/
VIDEO
(Composite Video)
Analog standard-definition video inputs. Use the adja-
cent R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV
speakers.
6. Y/VIDEO Pb Pr (Component Video)
Analog video inputs able to accept high-definition video
from a high-definition source device. Use the adjacent R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV
speakers.
7. L/R (INPUT 1 audio)
Analog stereo inputs for use in conjunction with adja-
cent composite or component video jacks.
8. DVI/PC INPUT
