Remote Control Functions Chapter 4 Menu Screen Operations Chapter 5 PIP/POP Operations 3 IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 1. Read, Retain and Follow All Instructions 2. Heed Warnings 3. Cleaning Please read the following safeguards for your TV and retain for future reference. Always follow all warnings and instructions marked on the television. 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. Adhere to all warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions. 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. Never add any attachments and/or equipment without approval of the manufacturer as such additions may result in the risk of fire, electric shock or other personal injury. 4. Attachments and Equipment 5. Water and Moisture 6. Accessories 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. 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. 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. This TV is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other. This plug will fit 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 fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. 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. 9. Grounding or Polarization 10. Power-Cord Protection 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. 4 IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS, continued 12. Power Lines An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never push objects of any kind into this TV through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on or into the TV. 13. Overloading 14. Object and Liquid Entry 15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. ANTENNA LEAD IN WIRE GROUND CLAMP ANTENNA DISCHARGE UNIT (NEC SECTION 810-20) GROUNDING CONDUCTORS (NEC SECTION 810-21) GROUND CLAMPS POWER SERVICE GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM (NEC ART 250, PART H) ELECTRIC SERVICE EQUIPMENT 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 qualified service personnel. NEC -- NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE 17. Damage Requiring Service Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified 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 qualified 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 specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards. 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. The product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat. 19. Safety Check 20. Heat 5 Warning: Do not leave stationary PIP/POP, or letterbox images on the 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 fill 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 subtle but permanent ghost images. To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern and reduce the initial contrast level. Do not show the same stationary image for more than 15% of your total TV viewing in any given week. Display constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen whenever possible. This projection TV uses picture tubes to project the image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As they age, their light output is gradually reduced. Normal TV pictures fill 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 fill the screen (leaving black or colored bars to fill the screen), when used over extended periods of time or when viewed repeatedly, can cause uneven aging of the phosphors and leave subtle ghosts from 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: IMPORTANT NOTES 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. News and stock-market report bars: ticker running at the bottom of the TV screen. Shopping channel logos & pricing displays: bright graphics that are shown constantly 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. Online (Internet) websites: or any other stationary or repetitive computer style images, including digital photos. Closed Captioning Mitsubishi recommends using a gray background rather than a black or a bright color if you frequently use closed captioning. 6 Chapter . . . 1 Television Overview Thank you .................................................................................................................. 8 Unpacking your New TV............................................................................................ 9 Special Features........................................................................................................... 9 Front Control Panel .................................................................................................. 10 Back Panel Input/Output.......................................................................................... 11 Important Notes........................................................................................................ 12 Thank You for Your Purchase Welcome to the wonderful and exciting world of digital television!
