for future reference. Follow all operating and use instructions.
2. Heed Warnings
Adhere to all warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions.
3. Cleaning
Unplug the TV from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid, abrasive, or aerosol cleaners. Cleaners
can permanently damage the cabinet and screen. Use a lightly dampened cloth for cleaning.
4. Attachments and Equipment
Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer as such additions may
result in the risk of re, electric shock or other personal injury.
5. Water and Moisture
Do not use the TV where contact with or immersion in water is possible. Do not use near bath tubs, wash
bowls, kitchen sinks, laundry tubs, swimming pools, etc.
6. Accessories
Do not place the TV on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, or table. The TV may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult and serious damage to the TV. Use only with a cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the TV. Any mounting
of the TV should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use mounting accessories
recommended by the manufacturer.
Important Safeguards
An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force,
and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
7. Ventilation
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the TV and
to protect it from overheating. Do not block these openings or allow them to be obstructed by placing the TV
on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Nor should it be placed over a radiator or heat register. If the
TV is to be placed in a rack or bookcase, ensure that there is adequate ventilation and that the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
8. Power Source
This TV should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not
sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company.
9. Grounding or Polarization
This TV is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This
plug will t into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to t, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
10. Power-Cord Protection
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the TV.
11. Lightning
For added protection for this TV during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the TV due to lightning and power-line surges.

How Connections Affect the PIP
To see a picture in the PIP inset, you may
need to select an input source. If the only
input connected is ANT-A, then both the
main picture and the PIP insert will be from
that input source. If other video equipment
is connected, you may be able to view these
input sources as the PIP insert. When
connecting your new Mitsubishi bigscreen,
it is important to understand which main
picture and PIP input sources can and
cannot be used together. Table 1 shows
which inputs can and cannot be used
together and their limitations. To see which
input is being displayed as the main picture,
press INFO on the TV remote control. To
see which input is being displayed as the
PIP and for PIP operating instructions, see
Operation of PIP, pages 50-51.

How Connections Affect the System 4 Home Theater IR Control
Models VS-60719 and VS-70709
The Mitsubishi System 4 Home Theater IR
Control is a special feature that makes it
easier to use your TV with a digital surround
sound A/V receiver. Once your equipment
is properly connected and set up, your TV
and digital A/V receiver will change inputs
together, to match your selected video input
with the corresponding audio input.
When you change inputs on your TV to
watch different video products, your TV will
send signals via your remote control and the
infrared emitters to your digital A/V receiver
to change inputs. You will automatically
hear the high quality digital surround sound
from digital products like your DVD player,
and high quality analog stereo or surround
sound from non-digital products like your
VCR.
Additionally, all IR remote signals from your
Mitsubishi remote or other manufacturers
remote will be passed through your TV to
your A/V devices. Your A/V devices can
be hidden or behind cabinet doors and controlled by pointing the remote at the TV.

WARNING:
Do not display the same stationary images on the screen for more that 15%

letterbox top/bottom bars from DVD or other video sources, side bars when showing standard
TV pictures on widescreen TV’s, stock market reports, video game patterns, station logos, web
sites, or stationary computer images. Such patterns can unevenly age the picture tubes causing
permanent damage to the TV. Please see pages 21 and 52 for a detailed explanation.

Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on-screen for
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.
The normal use of a TV should include
a mixture of TV picture types. The most
frequently used picture types should ll
the screen with constantly moving images
rather than stationary images or patterns.
Displaying the same stationary patterns
over extended periods of time, or displaying the same stationary pattern frequently
can leave a subtle but permanent ghost
image. To avoid this, mix your viewing
pattern. Do not show the same stationary
image for more than 15% of your total TV
viewing in any one week. Display con-
stantly moving and changing images that
ll the screen whenever possible.
This projection TV uses picture tubes to
project the image onto the screen. All
picture tubes age with use. As they
age, their light output is gradually reduced.
Normal TV pictures ll the screen with
constantly changing images. Under these
conditions, picture tubes age at an even
rate across the entire screen. This maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright over
the whole screen. Stationary images or
images that only partially ll the screen
(leaving black or colored bars to ll the
screen), when used over extended periods
of time or when viewed repeatedly, can
cause uneven aging of the phosphors
and leave subtle ghosts of the stationary
images in the picture
Still or stationary images may be received
from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite channels, DVD discs, video tapes,
laser discs, on-line services, web/internet
searching devices, video games, and digital TV tuner/converter boxes. Examples of
these types of images can be, but are not
limited to the following:
Letterbox top/bottom black bars:
shown at the top and bottom of the TV
screen when you watch a widescreen
(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.
Side bar images: solid bars shown on
each side of an image when watching
a standard (4:3) program on a widescreen (16:9) TV.
Stock-market report bars: ticker run-
ning at the bottom of the TV screen.
Shopping channel logos & pricing dis-
plays: bright graphics that are shown con-
stantly or repeatedly in the same location.
Video game patterns and scoreboards
Bright station logos: moving or low-
contrast graphics are less likely to cause
uneven aging of the picture tubes.
On-line (internet) web sites: or any
other stationary or repetitive computer style
images.

Remote Control Functions: System 4 Home Theater IR Control
Models VS-60719 and VS-70709
The Mitsubishi System 4 Home Theater IR
Control is a special feature that makes it
easier to use your TV with a digital surround
sound A/V receiver. Once your equipment
is properly connected and set up, your TV
and digital A/V receiver will change inputs
together, to match your selected video input
with the corresponding audio input.
When you change inputs on your TV to
watch different video products, your TV will
send signals via your remote control and the
infrared emitters to your digital A/V receiver
to change inputs. You will automatically
hear the high quality digital surround sound
from digital products like your DVD player,
and high quality analog stereo or surround
sound from non-digital products like your
VCR.
Additionally, all IR remote signals from your
Mitsubishi remote or other manufacturers
remote will be passed through your TV to
your A/V devices. Your A/V devices can
be hidden or behind cabinet doors and controlled by pointing the remote at the TV.

Part IV: Operation
Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on-screen for
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The normal use of a TV should include
a mixture of TV picture types. The most
frequently used picture types should ll
the screen with constantly moving images
rather than stationary images or patterns.
Displaying the same stationary patterns
over extended periods of time, or display-
ing the same stationary pattern frequently
can leave a subtle but permanent ghost
image. To avoid this, mix your viewing
pattern. Do not show the same stationary
image for more than 15% of your total TV
viewing in any one week. Display con-
stantly moving and changing images that
ll the screen whenever possible.
This projection TV uses picture tubes to
project the image onto the screen. All
picture tubes age with use. As they
age, their light output is gradually reduced.
Normal TV pictures ll the screen with
constantly changing images. Under these
conditions, picture tubes age at an even
rate across the entire screen. This maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright over
the whole screen. Stationary images or
images that only partially ll the screen
(leaving black or colored bars to ll the
screen), when used over extended periods
of time or when viewed repeatedly, can
cause uneven aging of the phosphors
and leave subtle ghosts of the stationary
images in the picture.
Still or stationary images may be received
from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite channels, DVD discs, video tapes,
laser discs, on-line services, web/internet
searching devices, video games, and digital TV tuner/converter boxes. Examples of
these types of images can be, but are not
limited to the following:
Letterbox top/bottom black bars:
shown at the top and bottom of the TV
screen when you watch a widescreen
(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.
Side bar images: solid bars shown on
each side of an image when watching
a standard (4:3) program on a widescreen (16:9) TV.
Stock-market report bars: ticker run-
ning at the bottom of the TV screen.
Shopping channel logos & pricing dis-
plays: bright graphics that are shown con-
stantly or repeatedly in the same location.
Video game patterns and scoreboards
Bright station logos: moving or low-
contrast graphics are less likely to cause
uneven aging of the picture tubes.
On-line (internet) web sites: or any
other stationary or repetitive computer style
images.
