Package Contents
Please take a moment to review the following list of
items to ensure that you have received everything.
Special Features of Your TV
Your new high-definition widescreen television has
many special features that make it the perfect center of
your home entertainment system, including:
1080p High-Definition LCD Display System
Your Mitsubishi LCD Flat Panel HDTV uses a full 1920
x 1080 LCD panel to create the picture you see on the
screen. All images are displayed at 1080p. The TV
uses Plush 1080p™ to convert lower-resolution signals
to 1080p for display.
Smooth120Hz™ Film Motion
Smooth120Hz™ Film Motion makes fast-moving images
appear smoother and more fluid, free from motion
blur. In this LCD Flat Panel HDTV, Smooth120Hz™
Film Motion doubles the traditional progressive scan
frame rate and creates new frames of video between
the traditional frames to smooth moving images.
Smooth120Hz™ Film Motion also smooths film judder
(image vibration) that may be present in film-based
content such as movies.
16:9 Widescreen Picture Format
Enjoy a full theatrical experience in the comfort of your
home. View pictures as film directors intended them.
Digital TV broadcasts, DVDs and newer video game
consoles support this widescreen format.

8. HDMI™ Inputs
(High-Definition
Multimedia Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and high-
definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio.
Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI compli-
ant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player.
These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p
video formats.
Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables,
also called high-speed HDMI cables, to connect HDMI 1.3
source devices. High-speed category 2 cables bring you
the full benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video signals.
To connect a DVI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or
cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio
cables to the DVI/PC INPUT AUDIO jacks on the TV to
receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device.
The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and
HDMI computer video signals. For additional information on
PC compatibility, see “Using the TV with a Personal Com-
puter,” page 18, and Appendix A, “Specifications,” page 66.
These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Pro-
tection) compliant.
These inputs are certified for proper interoper-
ability with other products certified by Simplay™.
9. AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
Use
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
to send analog audio of the
program currently shown on the screen to an analog A/V
surround sound receiver or stereo system. Digital audio
from digital channels and HDMI devices is converted to
analog audio by the TV. This is the only audio connec-
tion needed between it and the TV if using an analog A/V
receiver or stereo system.
IMPORTANT
Selecting Audio Output Type, 246 Series TVs
The red audio jack can output either right stereo
audio for an A/V receiver or mono bass audio
for a subwoofer. Select the output type when
prompted in the Auto Output Sensing screen.
10. SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
246 Series TVs. Connect a powered subwoofer to the
SUBWOOFER OUTPUT
jack. Select Subwoofer when the
Auto Output Sensing screen displays.
11. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio to
your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio
from analog channels and devices is converted by the TV
to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver,
in most cases this is the only audio connection needed
between the TV and your A/V receiver.
12. IR NetCommand Output/External
Controller Input
IR emitters connected to this jack are used by the TV’s
NetCommand system to send control signals to external IR
remote-controlled devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVD
players, satellite receivers and audio receivers.
When NetCommand is not in use, this jack can be switched

Using a CableCARD
246 Series TVs
The CableCARD™ system allows your TV to receive,
decode, and unscramble the premium digital channels
included in your cable TV subscription without the use
of a cable box. The system is unidirectional, meaning
that certain digital cable services, such as requests
for video-on-demand and pay-per-view programs, a
cable operator’s enhanced program guide, and data-
enhanced television services may require use of a
set-top box instead. For more information, call your
local cable operator.
Note: CableCARD requires the TV’s Fast Power On
setting. If you insert a CableCARD, the TV will
automatically override a Low Power setting and
change to the Fast Power On setting.

Auto Input Sensing
The TV’s Auto Input Sensing feature automatically rec-
ognizes most connections and prompts you to identify
the type of device connected. See page 14 for more on
Auto Input Sensing.
Connection Types
Review the connection types available on your input
devices and use connections that will give the best
video quality. For example, choose HDMI over compo-
nent video, and choose component video over S-video
or composite video.
Picture Quality
For best picture quality, route signals directly from
the input device to the TV; avoid routing video signals
through an A/V receiver, for example.
Surround Sound
For best surround sound audio quality, route audio-
signal cables or HDMI cables from the source device
directly to your A/V receiver or sound system.
IMPORTANT
Accessory items such as cables, adapters,
splitters, or combiners required for TV
connections are not supplied with the TV.
These items are available at many electronics
stores.
Before You Begin
One cable tie with a locking pin is supplied with the acces-
sories. Use the tie to keep cables organized and con-
nected.
Cable Management
IMPORTANT
Be sure to leave enough cable slack below the cable tie
to allow the TV to swivel freely. Without enough slack,
there is a risk of damaging the cables and the TV.

A/V Receiver (Sound System) Using
the TV’s Audio Output
Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV
channels received on
ANT 1
,
ANT 2
, or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the con-
nections shown below.
The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog
formats:
Analog audio coming into the TV is output in digital •
stereo format on the
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
jack.
Digital incoming audio is output on the analog •
AVR
AUDIO OUTPUT L
and
R
jacks.
Usually, only one of the following audio connections is
required.
To connect an analog A/V receiver•
Connect left (white) and right (red) audio cables
from
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT L
and
R
on the TV main
panel to the
TV AUDIO INPUT
on the A/V receiver.
To connect a digital A/V receiver with • Dolby
Digital surround sound and PCM audio support:
Connect one end of the digital audio cable to
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
on the back of the TV.
Connect the other end to the
COAXIAL DIGITAL
INPUT
on the back of the A/V receiver.

through the A/V receiver, use the connection for an
analog A/V receiver.
Check the A/V receiver’s Owner’s Guide for infor-•
mation concerning use of the digital input and
switching between digital sound and analog stereo
sound from the TV.
A/V Receiver with HDMI Output
Required: One HDMI-to-HDMI cable
This option allows you to view content from devices
connected to an A/V receiver. The A/V receiver can
send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI
cable. You can use an HDMI connection as described
here in addition to an audio connection from the TV’s
audio output.
You may be able to use the TV’s remote control (with
slide switch set to
TV
) to operate connected CEC-
enabled HDMI devices. Experiment with your equip-
ment to determine which functions are available to the
TV’s remote control. See Appendix E, page 80.
This setup allows you to use NetCommand-controlled
audio and video switching over the HDMI cable. See
“A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Audio and Video
Switching via HDMI” on page 63.

Indicates DVDs recorded to show widescreen images prop-
erly on 16:9 TV sets using the TV’s Standard format mode
(recommended)
.
Non-Anamorphic (or 4:3, 1:33:1, Letter Box, or
Full Screen)
Indicates DVDs recorded for viewing on squarish TV
screens. They may be full screen (4:3 or 1:33:1) which
crops movies to fit the narrow TV, or letter box, which
adds black top and bottom bars.
TV Display Format Definitions
Standard: This is the full-screen format used by HDTV
signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs with a
1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1
aspect ratio are displayed correctly but with top and bottom
black bars. Narrow (4:3) images are stretched evenly from
side to side. Available for all signals.
Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping
the top and bottom; useful for reducing the letter box top and
bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD images.
Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the
sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars. 480i/480p and
SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and bottom bars on anamor-
phic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9,

the sides by expanding the picture to crop off portions of the
top and bottom. You can adjust the vertical position of the
picture. Press
VIDEO
repeatedly to show the Vert Adjustment
option, then press
ENTER.
Use to move the picture.
Narrow: Displays narrow 4:3 images in their original
shape. Adds black side bars to fill the screen.
Wide Expand: Enlarges the picture, cropping the image on
both sides. Removes or reduces black side bars added to
narrow images converted to 16:9 signals for digital broadcast.
Note: All high-definition channels send widescreen (16:9)
signals, but not all programming was created for this
format. The broadcaster may stretch the image or add
side bars to fill the widescreen area.

• NetCommandoperatesbysendingremotecontrol
signals from the TV to your other devices via the IR
emitters, telling the devices to play, record, change
inputs, adjust volume, change channels, or perform
other functions. All this is accomplished with the

Standard Setup. Perform a standard setup if
you want NetCommand to control only a few
devices, such as the TV, a playback device (like
a DVD player), and a cable box. With this setup,
you can use the TV’s remote control to operate
these devices.
A/V Receiver Setup. Perform A/V receiver
setup if you want NetCommand to:
Control a surround sound A/V receiver.
Automatically change audio input selections
on an A/V receiver when you change inputs
on the TV.
Automatically change audio and video input
selections on an A/V receiver with an HDMI
output to the TV.
Important Note on NetCommand
Be sure to connect the IR emitter cable to the
TV and properly place the emitters so that
NetCommand can control your devices. See
the explanation on the opposite page.
About NetCommand IR Control
IR Emitter Placement
An IR emitter cable is included with the TV.
The NetCommand system uses emitters connected
to the
IR—NetCommand Output
jack to control other
devices such as DVD players, cable boxes, satellite
receivers, and VCRs.
Connect the plug end of the supplied IR emitter
1.
cable to the
IR—NetCommand Output
jack on the
TV main panel.
Run the cable for each of the emitter ends under,
2.
alongside, or over each device to be controlled so
that the emitter end is in front of the area where the
remote control sensor is located.
Position the emitter end with the emitter bulb facing
3.
the remote control sensor. The bulb emits infrared
light in a cone-shaped pattern. Place the bulb far
enough from the sensor to allow the cone pattern
to reach the sensor.
The IR sensor is usually behind the plastic window
of the front display panel. It is sometimes visible
with the aid of a flashlight and is normally a round
or square cutout behind the plastic.
If you cannot see the sensor and the device’s
Owner’s Guide does not specify the location, you
can find it by following these steps using the
device’s remote control:
a. Hold the device’s remote about one-half inch
from the front of the device. Starting from one
end of the display window plastic, press the
POWER
button.
b. If the device does not respond, move the
remote control one inch toward the center and
try again.
c. Repeat this until the device responds.
d. Note this location and then start over from the
other end of the display window plastic, repeat-
ing until the device responds again.
The remote control sensor is somewhere
between these two positions. This is usually
enough accuracy for placement of the IR emit-
ters.
In some cases, the emitter works better facing
downward from the top of the device. Experi-
ment to find what works best.
Secure the emitter ends in place using double-
4.
sided tape.
Place any unused ends behind the devices to
5.
prevent stray signals from reaching the IR sensors.

Place IR emitters so the signal can be “seen” by the IR
sensor on each device.
IMPORTANT
Position IR emitters so that each device’s
sensor “sees” the signal from only one emitter.
Otherwise, a device receiving signals from
multiple sources (remote controls, IR emitters)
may not respond at all.

A/V receiver.
Mitsubishi recommends you send audio through
the TV as shown in the example. Setup 1 causes
the A/V receiver to switch to its input designated for
TV audio.
If you have a digital A/V receiver, the TV makes the
audio available by converting analog audio to a
digital output.
HDMI Digital Stereo Audio•
Digital stereo audio from an HDMI connection
is available both in digital format (from the TV’s
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack) and in analog
format (from the TV’s
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
jack).

TV’s digital or analog audio output
Note: This setup is required to hear digital sur-
round sound
A device can send digital surround sound such as
Dolby Digital or DTS directly to the A/V receiver,
bypassing the TV entirely. The device might be a DVD
player, cable box, or satellite receiver, and could have
HDMI output. A DVD player is used in this example.
Your setup may include additional devices with digital
surround sound connected directly to the A/V receiver.
These devices might be a DVD player plus a cable box

This appendix explains programming the TV’s remote
control to operate other A/V devices. This is distinct
from NetCommand control. The TV’s remote control
can operate other devices by three different methods:
• Remote Control Programming: You must move
the slide switch to the position specific to the
type of device.
• NetCommand® IR “learning”: You can operate
other devices with the slide switch in the
TV
position.
•
NetCommand for HDMI devices: You may be
able to operate compatible CEC-enabled HDMI
devices with the slide switch in the TV position.
See the device’s Owner’s Guide and Appendix E.
Functions Available for Other A/V Devices
The TV’s remote control can be programmed to operate
other types and brands of A/V products. To use the
remote when programmed, set the slide switch to the
position labelled for the product type. The functions
performed in each switch position can vary depending
on the product. Not all functions work for all models.
The most common functions available are listed on this
page.
Set the remote control’s slide
switch to the type of device you
wish to program for or control.

TV Guide Daily Troubleshooting Tips
Symptom Remarks
1.
When I enter the Guide I see a Setup Progress
screen.
You have not yet received all of the program listings (it may take up
to 24 hours to receive a full grid of listings).
2.
Listings reads “Listings Pending.” The Guide has not yet completed initial setup, changes you made
have not completed, or the Guide is setup incorrectly. Verify that
your TV is properly connected to the input source. Then, verify that
the ZIP code and input source (entered during initial setup of Guide)
are correct. See “Setting Up TV Guide Daily,” page 77 for more
information.
3.
Tiles in Listings read “No Listing” or “Title
Unavailable.”
The Guide has not received updated show information or no infor-
mation was available the last time the Guide received an update,
update did not occur, or there was a power failure. Make sure you
turn the TV off when not in use to allow for updates. In the case of a
power failure, it may take up to 24 hours to update listings.
4.
Tiles in Listings read “Turned Off.” The channel you were watching before entering the Guide is turned
OFF in the grid. Use the channel editor to change the channel
setting to ON (see previous page, “Modify Guide Setup”).
5.
There are repeated or missing time slots in the
Listings.
The Guide is close to the time that a Daylight Savings time adjust-
ment is needed. The Guide automatically adjusts accordingly when
the local time is 2:00 a.m. to account for the affected hour of pro-
gramming. Once the adjustment is made, the Listings should return
to normal within 24 hours.
6.
My channel lineup is incorrect or I see a
channel lineup screen when I enter the Guide.
An incorrect lineup for your area is selected in the Guide setup.
Select the correct channel lineup for your area (see previous page,
“Modify Guide Setup”).
7.
My TV is tuned to a different channel than the
one I was watching the last time the TV was
turned off.
The Guide changes the channel to receive updates and does not
change the channel back until the update is complete. If the TV
is turned on before the update is complete, the channel will not
change back automatically.

Many new HDMI devices have a feature called CEC
(Consumer Electronics Control) or HDMI Control.
Mitsubishi calls this feature NetCommand HDMI Control
or NetCommand for HDMI. HDMI CEC allows one device,
such as the TV, to control other devices, such as an A/V
receiver or disc player. CEC use is optional.
Each manufacturer chooses which CEC functions to support
so it is difficult to predict which devices and features are
compatible with Mitsubishi’s NetCommand for HDMI. You
may find that CEC functions for a specific device are limited.
To use CEC, you must enable operation in all three

TV Reset Comparison Guide
You can resolve many common TV problems using
the reset functions described in the following table.
See also the troubleshooting suggestions later in this
appendix.
IMPORTANT
Before you change sound or picture settings: If
picture or sound settings seem wrong for a broadcast
channel (a channel from
ANT 1
,
ANT 2
, a cable box, or
satellite receiver), first check other channels from the
same input before changing settings. If most other
channels from the same input seem correct, there is
likely a problem with the broadcast rather than with the
TV. Use care in this case, as changes you make to fix
problems on individual channels also affect all other
channels on the same input.

outputs (AVR AUDIO OUTPUT or DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT).
3. The sound does not match the screen
picture.
The TV’s Listen to: setting may be set to SAP. See page 42.
4. The sound from my A/V receiver does
not match the screen picture (I should
hear the correct audio from my A/V
receiver).
Check that DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT and/or AVR AUDIO OUTPUT •
on TV’s main panel is connected to the A/V receiver.
Without this connection, devices connected only to the TV (and
not the A/V receiver) can be heard only from the TV speakers.
Note that this includes the ANT 1/ANT 2 inputs, a device (such as
a camcorder) connected to the convenience jacks, and any other
device sending audio to the TV only.
Check A/V receiver input selection in the Inputs > AVR menu. If •
NetCommand is set up incorrectly for the A/V receiver, see “A/V
Receiver Control: Automatic Audio Switching,” page 61.
5. The sound from my A/V receiver does
not match the screen picture (my source
device should be sending both audio
and video through the A/V receiver).
Check A/V receiver input selection in the Inputs > AVR menu. •
If NetC
ommand is set up incorrectly for the A/V receiver, see

Picture
Symptom Remarks
3. You cannot view a picture when playing a
VHS tape.
Check your VCR’s owner’s guide for further troubleshooting.
4. VCR or DVD player’s on-screen menus jitter
up and down.
Possible cause: Many VCRs and DVD players provide on-
screen menus at only half-resolution. These lower-resolution
graphics may appear to jitter up and down when the TV con-
verts them to high-definition graphics.
5. When viewing a stopped VCR, white lines
are rolling on the screen.
Turn off video mute for the • VCR.
Begin playing the tape.•
Change the VCR input to the antenna input.•
6. A color program appears as a black and
white image, or the colors are dim, or the
screen is black.
The PerfectColor color balance has been incorrectly set. Reset
the PerfectColor balance.
7. Picture from an HDMI input is noisy (poor
quality).
Try using a different HDMI cable.•
If the signal is 1080p, upgrade a Category 1 (unmarked) •
HDMI cable to a Category 2 high-speed HDMI cable.
8. The image from a computer appears dis-
torted when viewed on the TV.
Normal TV operation. The TV does not correct distortion in the
picture from a computer because the correction process may
cut off the edges of the image.

shall modify or replace the nonconforming Embedded Software at no charge to you, which at MDEA’s sole discretion
may be fulfilled by means of modification or replacement software contained on a replacement memory card for
Customer installation. The foregoing shall be MDEA’s sole obligation to you under this limited warranty. All rights
