IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

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, Retain and Follow All Instructions

Read all safety and operating instructions before operating the TV. Retain the safety and operating instructions
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.

and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Important Safeguards

16. Servicing

Do not attempt to service this TV yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualied service personnel.

17. Damage Requiring Service

Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualied service personnel under the following
conditions:

(a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
(b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV.
(c) If the TV has been exposed to rain or water.
(d) If the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions, adjust only those controls that

are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage

and will often require extensive work by a qualied technician to restore the TV to its normal operation.
(e) If the TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
(f) When the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.

18. Replacement Parts

When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts specied

by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may

result in re, electric shock or other hazards.

19. Safety Check

Upon completion of any service or repair to the TV, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to

determine that the TV is in safe operating condition.

20. Heat

The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other

products (including ampliers) that produce heat.

How Connections Affect the PIP and POP

To see a picture in the PIP or POP 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/POP 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/POP insert. When connecting your new
Mitsubishi bigscreen, it is important to under­stand which main picture and PIP/POP input
sources can and cannot be used together.

Table 1 shows which inputs can and cannot

be used together and the limitations they
may require. To see if 480i, DTV 480p,

1080i, Component-1 or Component-2 480p

is being displayed as the main picture, press
INFO on the TV remote control. The on­screen display, gure 1, will list 480i, 480p
or 1080i when those signals are being
received. See Operation of PIP and POP,
pages 58-59, for operating instructions. An
asterisk (*) displayed after the signal type
indicates that the signal being received is
a non-standard format. A non-standard
format signal may or may not display prop­erly in a PIP/POP inset. See Operation of

PIP and POP, pages 58-59, for operating

instructions.

How Connections Affect the Home Theater IR System

The Mitsubishi Home Theater IR System

Control is a special feature that makes it
easier to use your TV with a Mitsubishi
digital A/V receiver (M-VR700, M-VR800,
M-VR900, or M-VR1000). Once your equip­ment is properly connected and set up, your

TV and Mitsubishi digital A/V receiver will

change inputs together, to match high resolu­tion pictures with the proper surround sound.

When you change inputs on your TV to
watch different video products, your TV will
send signals via the infrared emitter to your

Mitsubishi digital A/V receiver and will also
change inputs to hear the sound from that
product. You will automatically hear the high
quality digital surround sound from digital
products like your DTV receiver and DVD
player, and high quality analog stereo or sur­round sound from non-digital products like
your VCR.

Part II: Installation

Special Setups: A/V Equipment

Owner’s Guide for this procedure). For all TV
use, the sound will come from the A/V receiver.

•Digital Input Assignment for DVD: Assign the
digital input you used for your DVD player to the
A/V receiver’s DVD input selector. For example,
if you connected your DVD player’s digital output
to the DIGITAL INPUT 1, you need to assign DIGI-

TAL INPUT 1 to the A/V receiver’s DVD input, so

it will automatically be used. This procedure is
explained in your A/V receiver’s Owner’s Guide.

•Digital Assignment for DTV: For Mitsubishi A/V
receiver, models M-VR800 or M-VR1000, assign
the DTV digital input to VCR 2. VCR 2 will
now be used to hear the DTV sound. If you
have a Mitsubishi A/V receiver model M-VR700
or M-VR900, assign the DTV digital input to
CABLE/DBS. CABLE/DBS will now be used to
hear DTV sound.
