Cl eaning 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 [phone].

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
gently.

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.

10) Protect the power cord from being walked on
or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.

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.
