Warnings and Safety Precaution
The Mitsubishi plasma monitor is designed and manufactured to pro vide long, trouble-free service. No main­tenance other than cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to clean the panel surface. The plasma display panel consists of fine picture elements (cells). Although Mitsubishi produces the plasma display panels with more than 99.99 percent active cells, there may be some cells that do not produce light or re­main lit. For operating saf ety and to avoid damage to the unit, read carefully and observe the following instructions. To avoid shock and fire hazards:
1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install the unit in a closed cabinet or shelves.
The unit is equipped with cooling fans. If you install the unit in an enclosure, make sure there is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise and escape. If the monitor becomes too hot, the overheat protector will be activated and the monitor will be turned off. If this happens, turn off the power to the monitor and unplug the power cord. If the room where the monitor is installed is particularly hot, move the monitor to a cooler location, and wait for the monitor to cool for 60 minutes. If the problem persists, contact your Mitsubishi dealer for service.
2. Do not use the power cord polarized plug with extension cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely inserted.
3. Do not expose the unit to water or moisture.
4. A void damage to the po wer cord, and do not attempt to modify the power cord.
5. Unplug the unit during electrical storms or if the unit will not be used over a long period.
6. Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a serious risk of electric shock.
7. Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. Mitsubishi is not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unqualified persons attempt service or open the back cover . Refer all service to authorized Mitsubishi Service Centers.

Recommendations to avoid or minimize unev en phosphor aging:
Like all phosphor-based display devices and all other g as plasma displays, plasma monitors can be susceptible to uneven phosphor aging under certain circumstances. Certain operating conditions, such as the continuous display of a static image over a prolonged period of time, can result in uneven phosphor aging if proper precautions are not taken. T o protect your in vestment in this Mitsubishi plasma monitor, please adhere to the follo wing guidelines and recommendations for minimizing this type of damage:
* Always enable and use your computer’s video g ame or D VD
player screen saver during use with these sources. * Display a moving image whenever possible. * Change the position of the menu display from time to time. * Always power down the monitor when you are finished using it.
Power cable (supplied)
core (large)
core (large)
To avoid damage and prolong operating life:
1. Use only with 120V 50/60Hz AC power supply. Continued operation at line voltages greater than 120 Volts AC will shorten the life of the unit, and might even cause a fire hazard.
2. Handle the unit carefully when handling and installing it and do not drop.
3. Set the unit away from heat, excessive dust, and direct sunlight.
4. Protect the inside of the unit from liquids and small metal objects. In case of accident, unplug the unit and have it serviced by an authorized Mitsubishi Service Center.
5. Do not hit or scratch the panel surface as this causes flaws on the surface of the screen.
If the plasma monitor is in long term use or continuous operation, take the following measures to reduce the likelihood of uneven phosphor aging:
* Lower the Brightness and Contrast levels as much as possible
without impairing image readability.
* Display an image with many colors and color gradations (i.e.
photographic or photo-realistic images).
* Create image content with minimal contrast between light and
dark areas. Use complementary or pastel colors whenever possible.
* Avoid displaying images with few colors and distinct, sharply
defined borders between colors.
Contact Mitsubishi at 1-800-332-2110 for other recommended procedures that will best suit your particular application needs.
6. For correct installation and mounting it is strongly recommended to use a trained, authorized Mitsubishi dealer.
7. Only use tabletop stands or wall-mount brackets that are designed specifically for this product.
8. As is the case with any phosphor-based display (like a CRT monitor, for example) light output will gradually decrease over the life of a Plasma Display Panel.
