Appendix F: Cleaning and Service

Cleaning

Normally, light dusting with a dry, non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean. If cleaning beyond this is needed, please use the following guidelines:

First, turn off the TV and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

Top and Sides of the TV:

Gently wipe down your TV with a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as cotton flannel or a clean cloth diaper, lightly moistened with water. Dry with a second dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.

For oily dirt, add a few drops of mild liquid detergent, such as dishwashing detergent to the water used to moisten the cloth. Rinse with a second cloth moistened only with water. Dry with a third dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.

Screen behind the Diamond Shield™:

Follow the instructions for the top and sides, however, wipe gently in an up and down motion, following the grooves in the screen.

Clean the entire screen evenly, not just sections of the screen.

Do not allow liquid to drip down the grooves of the screen as some liquid may enter the TV between the screen and the screen frame.

You may purchase Mitsubishi Screen Cleaner, part number CLEANER-VSS, by calling (800) 553-7278.

Cloth speaker grills:

Lightly brush with a soft cloth brush, or lint brush.

If necessary, you can vacuum using the brush and hose attachments of your vacuum cleaner. Do not use the beater brush section on the grill cloth.

General Cleaning Warnings:

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots or any crevice.

DO NOT use any strong or abrasive cleaners as these can scratch the surfaces.

DO NOT use any cleaners with ammonia, bleach, alcohol, benzine, or thinners as these can dull the surfaces.

DO NOT spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surfaces.

DO NOT scrub or rub the TV harshly. Wipe it gently.

IMPORTANT

DO NOT use any kind of abrasive cleaner on the surface of the TV screen or Diamond Shield™.

Service

If you are unable to correct a problem with your TV, consult your Mitsubishi dealer or a Mitsubishi Authorized Warranty Service Center.

DO NOT adjust any controls other than those described in this Owner’s Guide.

DO NOT remove the protective back cover of your TV.

Menus not described and shown in this owner’s guide are designed for Factory use and for Authorized Service Personnel. Damage caused to the TV by non- authorized changes or changes to these menus made by non-authorized persons are not covered under warranty.

This TV is very heavy! Exercise extreme care when moving TV as foreign material may become embedded in the castor wheels which could damage wood or other delicate flooring.
