Contrast provides a slider to adjust the

Brightness provides a slider to adjust the
overall brightness of the picture.
Sharpness provides a slider to adjust the
detail and clarity .
Color provides a slider to adjust the color
intensity.
Tint provides a slider to adjust the proportion of red to green.
Color Temp (color Temperature) allows
you to adjust how white images are displayed. Y our choices are:
• Low: White images will have a warm cast to
them. This adjustment is an average and can
vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene
brightness and the TV’s age. The Low represents
the industry standard for NTSC pictures.
• High: White images will have a cool cast to them.
This setting may provide the most realistic
picture under bright lighting.
• Medium: White images will be balanced between
the Low (warm) and High (cool) settings.
Video Noise reduces minor noise (graininess) in the broadcast or input signal. Your
choices are:
• Standard : No noise reduction. Use this setting
when the picture quality is good.
• Reduction : Use this setting when the picture
quality is poor and noisy . This mode will reduce
picture noise and soften the picture quality.
Image Type maximizes the original camera media: Video or Film. Video media
uses a video camera and is created at 30
frames per second. Film media uses a film
camera and is created at 24 frames per
second. Examples of video media are live
TV broadcast such as news, special
events, or video taped programs. Exam-
ples of film media are motion pictures,
made-for-TV movies, and many prime time
programs. Filmed media is converted by
the broadcaster or home video company
to 30 frames per second to match TV or
video standards. This conversion can
leave subtle “picture artifacts” or conversion errors. Setting the Image Type to Film
can reduce the picture artifacts and improve the picture quality, when viewing a
480i image.
AV Mode allows you to adjust the brightness of the dark parts of the image. Your
choices are:
• Standard: No correction.

Remote Control Functions: Display Formats
This is a wide screen TV (also known as a
16:9 TV). This shape reflects the new types
of images available from HDTV and many
DVDs. There are still many older style narrow
screen images (called 4:3 aspect ratio) you
will encounter. While there will never be a
perfect solution for displaying a narrow image
on a wide screen, Mitsubishi offers several
display formats to choose from.
Press FORMAT on the TV remote control to
cycle through the available display formats.
The Zoom format is not available during
PIP/POP functions.
Standard: This is the full screen format.
HDTV signals will automatically use this
format. This format is also useful to display
Anamorphic DVDs that have 1. 78:1 or 1.
85:1 aspect ratios. Anamorphic DVDs that
have the 2. 35:1 aspect ratio will still display black bars at the top and bottom.
Narrow (4:3) images will be stretched
evenly from side to side.
Expand: This will enlarge the picture,
cropping off some of the image at the top
and bottom. This is useful to reduce the
letterbox top and bottom bars of nonanamorphic DVDs or to correct narrow
(4:3) images that have been stretched in
the Standard format.
Display Formats
Zoom: This will enlarge the picture, crop-
ping off some of the image at each side,
and top and bottom. This is useful to remove or reduce the black top and bottom
bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1
aspect ratio.
Narrow: This format will display narrow
(4:3) images in their original shape, and
add stationary black side bars to fill the
screen.

Appendix B: High Definition Input Connection Compatibility
Component-1 and Component-2 Inputs
These inputs are compatible with component
video signals from standard DVD players and
other equipment sending a standard NTSC
component video signal (480i). These inputs
may also be compatible with newer DVD
players sending a progressive NTSC component video signal (480p).
PC-1 and PC-2 Inputs
This input will accomodate most computers capable of supporting a VGA, SVGA
or XGA monitor. The only compatible
display sync rate is 60Hz.
DTV Input
This input is compatible with most standard
DTV receivers with component video outputs.
Compatible DTV signals are SDTV 480i,
480p, and HDTV 720P, 1080i.
Input Levels and Timing with Component
Video
Y=1. 0Vp-p (includes sync)75ohms
Cr =700mVp-p, 75ohms (can also receive
signals from outputs labeled R-Y and Pr)
Cb =700mVp-p, 75ohms (can also receive
signals from outputs labeled R-Y and Pr)
Input Levels and Timing When Used With
Component Video Signals
This input is also compatible with some DTV
receivers using RGB with “sync on green” or
RGB with “separate H and V sync”. Compatible DTV signals are SDTV 480i, 480p, and
HDTV 720P, 1080i. Industry standards for
DTV RGB signals systems, synchronization,
timing, and signal strengths are not currently
established. These inputs will not be compatible with all DTV receivers that offer RGB. If
your DTV receiver offers both DTV component video signals and DTV RGB signals,
Mitsubishi suggests you use the DTV component video signals. Please check the DTV
receiver specifications before connecting.

The lamp is the light source for the DLP
panel. When the lamp fails, replace it with a
new one.
Do not remove the lamp immediately after
turning off the projector . You may get
burned because of the high temperature of
the lamp.
When replacing the lamp, first press the
power button to power off, then wait one
hour so that the lamp is cool to the touch.
Do not remove the lamp except for replacement. Careless treatment can cause
injury or fire.
Do not touch the lamp element directly. It
may break and cause you to injure or burn
yourself.
Be sure not to drop the lamp lid screw into
the projector. Also be sure not to insert
metal or any flammable objects, it may
cause fire or electric shock. If any objects
are inserted, please unplug the AC cord
and contact your dealer.
Install the lamp securely. Failure to do so
may cause a fire.
Lamp Life
The actual life of the lamp in this television
can vary, based on the lamp itself, the air
temperature around the TV while it is operating, and user’s viewing patterns. Warmer air
(or poor ventilation) shortens the lamp life, as
does turning the television on and off frequently . Mitsubishi warranties the lamp for
90days or 2000 hours of operation whichever
occurs first. However, it is likely that the lamp
will last significantly longer than this. When
the lamp life reaches 4,000 Hours, the TV
will display a warning message for one
minute. This warning message will also be
displayed the next 5 times the TV is turned
on. The purpose of this message is to advise
the customer that the lamp may fail soon. To
order a new lamp call (800) 553 - 7278.
Caution : Allow the television to cool for
one hour before attempting to
replace the lamp.
You can confirm the Lamp Elapsed time
by selecting the Lamp Status in the
Advanced Menu.
