Guidelines for Setting Up and Using Your New Widescreen TV

Getting Started

1.Review the important safety, installation, and oper- ating information at the beginning of this book.

2.Choose a location for your TV.

Allow at least four inches of space on all sides of the TV to help prevent overheating. Over- heating may cause premature failure of the TV.

Avoid locations where light may reflect off the screen.

If wall-mounting the TV, see “Stand Removal Instructions” in chapter 1, “Television Over- view.”

3.Install the batteries in the remote control. See the following page. See chapter 4, “TV Operation and Features” for more on use of the remote control.

4.Plug your TV into a power outlet. The LED on the front of the TV will start blinking rapidly. After the LED stops blinking, press the POWER key to power on the TV.

5.When the Welcome screen appears the first time you power on the TV, select a language for TV menus. You can later change the language through the Setup menu.

6. Connect your audio/video (A/V) devices to the TV and perform initial setup.

See chapter 3, “TV Connections” for connec- tion diagrams.

See the following pages for initial TV setup and use of the Auto Input Sensing feature.

See chapter 6, “NetCommand,” to perform NetCommand IR “learning” for control of your home theater.

7.Mitsubishi recommends you perform a channel scan for channels received on ANT 1 and ANT 2. See “Initial TV Setup” on the following pages.

8. You can now start watching TV or you can perform additional setup and customization through the TV menus.

TV Operation

1.Review chapter 4, “TV Operation and Features,” for TV features including:

Input Selection (viewing source). Select a connected program source to watch, such as a VCR, DVD player, or antenna. Press INPUT on the remote control to select from icons for the TV inputs. See “Choosing a Viewing Source.”

ChannelView™/TV Guide Daily. Press GUIDE to see channel listings for programs on ANT 1 and ANT 2. To override ChannelView and use the TV Guide Daily system, see Chapter 5, “TV Menu Settings” and the Inputs menu Guide options.

Picture Formats. Press FORMAT to cycle through picture sizes and shapes to find the one best suited to the current program. See “TV Signals and Display Formats.”

2.To understand use of the Input Selection menu with NetCommand-controlled devices, see “Using NetCommand.”

3.To view JPEG photo files on the TV, see “Viewing Camera Files.”

Additional TV Setup

1.Review chapter 5, “TV Menu Settings,” to custom- ize TV operation. Press the MENU key to enter the menu system. Some examples of settings you may wish to change include:

Fav. Use an on-screen menu to create custom lists of your favorite channels from ANT 1 and ANT 2. See Setup > Edit.

Order. Rearrange the device icons in the Input Selection menu to put frequently used icons near the front. See Inputs > Order.

Name. Change the device names that appear in the Input Selection menu. See the Inputs menu Name options.
