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
Without applying pressure, gently wipe down your •
TV with a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as cotton
flannel 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 deter-•
gent, 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.
Glossy Surfaces
Use the soft cleaning cloth supplied with the TV.
• Clean the cloth before each use by shaking or
brushing to remove any residual dirt particles.
•
Gently wipe down the glossy surfaces of your TV with
the soft cloth. Do not apply pressure while wiping.
• If necessary, lightly dampen the soft cloth with
water. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaners.
• Wash the soft cloth by hand or machine. Use only
mild soap.
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 (800) 553-7278.
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.•

Control Systems,” page 19 .
• Net Command setup is optional.
• You may wish to use Net Command IR control to
supplement CEC control.
• You can perform Net Command setup when the TV
first recognizes a device during Auto Input Sensing
or at any convenient time afterward.
• Net Command operates by sending remote control
signals from the TV to your other devices via the IR
emitters, telling the devices to play, record, change
inputs, adjust volume, change channels, or perform
other functions. All this is accomplished with the
TV’s remote control and the slide switch left in the
TV
position.
• The IR “Learning” feature of Net Command allows
the TV to learn the IR control signals for your A/V
devices.
Important Note on NetCommand
Be sure to connect the IR emitter cable to the
TV and properly place the emitters so that
NetCommand can control your devices. See
the explanation on the next page .
• You can choose the level of Net Command control
for your home theater.
Standard Setup. Perform a standard setup if
you want Net Command to control only a few
devices, such as the TV, a playback device (like
a DVD player), and a cable box. With this setup,
you can use the TV’s remote control to operate
these devices.
A/ V Receiver Setup. Perform A/V receiver
setup if you want Net Command to:
Control a surround sound A/V receiver.
Automatically change audio input selections
on an A/V receiver when you change inputs
on the TV.
Automatically change audio and video input
selections on an A/V receiver with an HDMI
output to the TV.

IR E mitter Placement
An IR emitter cable is included with the TV.
The Net Command system uses emitters connected
to the

devices such as DVD players, cable boxes, satellite
receivers, and VCRs.

TV main panel.
Run the cable for each of the emitter ends under,
2.
alongside, or over each device to be controlled so
that the emitter end is in front of the area where the
remote control sensor is located.
Position the emitter end with the emitter bulb facing
3.
the remote control sensor. The bulb emits infrared
light in a cone-shaped pattern. Place the bulb far
enough from the sensor to allow the cone pattern
to reach the sensor.
The IR sensor is usually behind the plastic window
of the front display panel. It is sometimes visible
with the aid of a flashlight and is normally a round
or square cutout behind the plastic.
If you cannot see the sensor and the device’s
Owner’s Guide does not specify the location, you
can find it by following these steps using the
device’s remote control:
a. Hold the device’s remote about one-half inch
from the front of the device. Starting from one
end of the display window plastic, press the
POWER
key.
b. If the device does not respond, move the
remote control one inch toward the center and
try again.
c. Repeat this until the device responds.
d. Note this location and then start over from the
other end of the display window plastic, repeat-
ing until the device responds again.
The remote control sensor is somewhere
between these two positions. This is usually
enough accuracy for placement of the IR emit-
ters.
In some cases, the emitter works better facing
downward from the top of the device. Experi-
ment to find what works best.
Secure the emitter ends in place using double-
4.
sided tape.
Place any unused ends behind the devices to
5.
prevent stray signals from reaching the IR sensors.
Place IR emitters so the signal can be “seen” by the IR
sensor on each device.
IMPORTANT
Position IR emitters so that each device’s
sensor “sees” the signal from only one emitter.
Otherwise, a device receiving signals from
multiple sources (remote controls, IR emitters)
may not respond at all.

A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Audio
and Vi deo Switching via HDMI
If your A/V receiver has an HDMI output, you can use
this procedure to set up control of the A/V receiver’s
audio and video switching. The HDMI connection
allows you to route video signals from multiple devices
over a single cable to the TV. See the diagram on the
opposite page . The connected devices can be analog,
digital, or a mixture or the two.
More About Using an HDMI Connection
Audio from devices connected directly to the TV •
can be heard from the TV speakers only. This is
because audio signals are sent on the HDMI cable
in one direction only—through the A/V receiver to
the TV speakers.
To send audio to the A/V receiver from a device
connected directly to the TV, use one of the optional
audio connections shown in the diagram. For
example, use an optional audio connection if you
wish to use the A/V receiver speakers to hear audio
from:

In some circumstances, audio from a device con-•
nected to the A/V receiver may not be passed over
the HDMI cable to the TV speakers. You must use
the A/V receiver speakers to hear audio in these
cases.

Appendix D: NetCommand HDMI Control of CEC Devices
Many new HDMI devices have a feature called CEC
(Consumer Electronics Control) or HDMI Control.
Mitsubishi calls this feature NetCommand HDMI Control
or NetCommand for HDMI. HDMI CEC allows one
device, such as the TV, to control other devices, such
as an A/V receiver or disc player. CEC use is optional.
Each manufacturer chooses which CEC functions to
support so it is difficult to predict which devices and
features are compatible with Mitsubishi’s NetCommand
for HDMI. You may find that CEC functions for a specific
device are limited.
To use CEC, you must enable operation in all three
of the following:
The TV’s Inputs > NetCommand HDMI Control •
menu.
Control in order for CEC to operate. When off, the TV
sends no control signals to CEC devices.
The TV’s Inputs > Name menu.• You can turn
on or off the TV’s control signals to individual
CEC devices. This option operates only when
NetCommand HDMI Control is enabled.
The device setup menus.• Most devices with HDMI
CEC compatibility let you turn it on or off in the device
menus, where it is typically listed as “HDMI Control.”
You must turn on the TV’s NetCommand HDMI
Connecting HD MI Devices to the TV
When setting up CEC control:
Enable the TV’s NetCommand HDMI control as •
described above. NetCommand for HDMI is off by

First turn on the device and allow the power-•
on sequence (boot up) to complete. Stop any
playback, and then connect the HDMI cable as
described next.
Turn on the device and allow it to complete the
1.
power-on sequence (boot up).
Connect the device to one of the TV’s HDMI inputs.

tional instructions. You will see one of the following
screens, depending on your equipment.

Picture
SymptomRemarks
1.Picture does not look like a high-definition
picture.
2.There is a large black or gray rectangle on
the screen.
Not all signals are high-definition signals. To receive high-definition programming from your cable or satellite provider, you must
subscribe to the provider’s high-definition service. Some overthe-air broadcasts are in high-defi nition and can be received with
a high-quality antenna suited to your location.
The TV’s analog closed captioning has been set to “text” mode
in the Captions menu. Turn off because there is no text information being broadcast.
3.You cannot view a picture when playing a
VHS tape.
4.VCR or DVD player’s on-screen menus jitter
up and down.
5.When viewing a stopped VCR, white lines
are rolling on the screen.
6.A color program appears as a black and
white image, or the colors are dim, or the
screen is black.
7.Picture from an HDMI input is noisy (poor
quality).
Sound (see also Net Command troubleshooting for additional help with A/V receiver concerns)
SymptomRemarks
1.There is no sound even when the
volume is turned up.
2.The sound does not match the screen
picture.
3.The sound from my A/V receiver does
not match the screen picture (I should
hear the correct audio from my A/V
receiver).
4.The sound from my A/V receiver does
not match the screen picture (my source
device should be sending both audio
and video through the A/V receiver).
Check your VCR’s owner’s guide for further troubleshooting.
Possible cause: Many VCRs and DVD players provide onscreen menus at only half-resolution. These lower-resolution
graphics may appear to jitter up and down when the TV converts them to high-definition graphics.
• Turn off video mute for the VCR.
• Begin playing the tape.
• Change the VCR input to the antenna input.
The PerfectColor color balance has been incorrectly set. Reset
the PerfectColor balance.
Upgrade a Category 1 (unmarked) HDMI cable to a Category 2
high-speed HDMI cable.
• Check if the MUTE key is on.
• The TV’s “Listen to:” setting may be set to SAP.
• Check that the Speakers option is set to TV to hear sound from the
TV speakers.
• If using an A/V receiver, check that the Speakers option is set to AV
Receiver to hear sound from the A/V receiver speakers.
• Perform a System Reset.
The TV’s Listen to: setting may be set to SAP. See page 44 .
Check that DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT and/or AVR AUDIO •
OUTPUT on TV’s back panel is connected to the A/V receiver.
Without this connection, devices connected only to the TV (and
not the A/V receiver) can be heard only from the TV speakers.
Note that this includes the ANT 1/ANT 2 inputs, a device (such
as a camcorder) connected to the front panel, and any other
device sending audio to the TV only.

Mitsubishi LaserVue™ Television Limited Warranty
MITSUBISHI DIGITAL ELECTRONICS AMERICA, INC. (“MDEA”) warrants as follows to the original purchaser of this
television from an authorized MITSUBISHI Audio/Video Dealer, should it prove defective by reason of against defects
arising from improper workmanship and/or material:
a. Parts. All parts (except any software incorporated into this television and Lenticular screen surface) are warranted
for a period of one (1) year from the date of the original purchase at retail. We will repair or replace, at our option, any
defective part without charge for the part. Lenticular (i.e. front picture) screen surface is warranted against defect in
materials and workmanship for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the original purchase at retail. Parts used
for replacement may be replaced with those of like kind and quality and may be new or remanufactured. Parts used
for replacement are warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period.
b. Embedded Software. MDEA warrants that all software incorporated into this television set (the “Embedded
Software”) will perform in accordance with the functional description of Embedded Software in all material respects,
but MDEA does not warrant that the Embedded Software is error-free. MDEA also does not warrant that the
Embedded Software will be compatible under HDMI CEC software standards with products produced by any other
manufacturer. The limited warranty contained in this section shall continue for a period of one (1) year from the
date of the original purchase at retail. If, after prompt notice within the warranty period, MDEA determines that the
Embedded Software has failed to perform in accordance with such functional description in all material respects and
if such failure is not due to accident, misuse, modification or misapplication of the Embedded Software, then MDEA
shall modify or replace the nonconforming Embedded Software at no charge to you, which at MDEA’s sole discretion
may be fulfilled by means of modification or replacement software contained on a replacement memory card for
Customer installation. The foregoing shall be MDEA’s sole obligation to you under this limited warranty. All rights
under this limited warranty on the Embedded Software also subject to your acceptance of and compliance with the
terms of the Software License Agreement applicable to this television, and this limited warranty on the Embedded
Software shall be null and void if the Embedded Software is modified or changed in any manner except as specifically
authorized by MDEA.
c. Labor. For thirty (30) days after the original purchase at retail, we will repair or replace, at our option the Lenticular
Screen if the surface proves defective. For certain items that are designed to be replaced by the consumer, including
(but not limited to) some Embedded Software, the consumer is solely responsible for any replacement labor. For all
other parts, we will provide the labor for a warranty repair by an authorized MITSUBISHI service center without charge
for one (1) year from the original date of purchase at retail.
d. Notice. To obtain warranty service, you must notify an authorized MITSUBISHI service center of any defect within
the applicable warranty time period.
e. This LaserVue Television uses a single DLP chip to create the screen image. This technology creates the image
using small dots, or picture elements (pixels). Your LaserVue TV is manufactured to a high level of performance
and quality, in fact, 99.99% perfect in the number of properly functioning pixels. As in other display technology,
sometimes a pixel is continuously active, inactive or the incorrect color. Our standard is clear; MDEA warrants only
that the percentage of properly functioning pixels will be not less than 99.99% of all pixels.
BEFORE REQUESTING SERVICE, please review the instruction booklet to insure proper installation and correct
customer control adjustment. If the problem persists please arrange for warranty service.
1. TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE:
a. Contact your nearest authorized MITSUBISHI service center, whose name and address can be obtained from your
MITSUBISHI dealer, by writing at the address provided below, calling MDEA at the 800-332-2119, or by using the

b. Warranty service will be provided in your home or, if required, at an authorized service shop, provided that your
television is located within the geographic territory customarily covered by an authorized MITSUBISHI service center.
If not, you must either deliver your television to an authorized service location at your own expense, or pay for any
travel and/or transportation costs the service center may charge to and from your home. Actual service labor will be

2. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER:
a. Up to .01% pixel outages (small dot picture elements that are dark or incorrectly illuminated).

such damage is caused by unauthorized modification, alteration, repairs to or service of the product by anyone other

by excessive physical or electrical stress); any products that have had a serial number or any part thereof altered,

product covered under this warranty is found, service calls related to unsatisfactory audio or visual reception or
signal unless caused by a defect in the product that is covered under this limited warranty, all costs, expenses or

MIGHT ARISE BY IMPLICATION OR OPERATION OF LAW, IS HEREBY EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED. THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE EXPRESSLY
LIMITED TO A TERM OF ONE YEAR.
4. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL MDEA BE LIABLE TO PURCHASER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF WARRANTY,
BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE.
5. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of
incidental, special, or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
6. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to
