WARNING

This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interfer-
ence when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instruction manual, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference in which case the
user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.

WARNINGS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The Mitsubishi plasma TV is designed and manufactured to
provide long, trouble-free service. No maintenance other
than cleaning is required. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the
panel. Never use solvents such as alcohol or thinner to clean
the panel surface. 

The plasma display consists of fine picture elements (cells).
Although Mitsubishi utilizes plasma display panels with more
than 99.99 percent active cells, there may be some cells that
do not produce light or remain lit.

For operating safety and to avoid damage to the unit, please
read and observe the following instructions. 
To avoid shock and fire hazards:

1. Provide adequate space for ventilation to avoid internal
heat build-up. Do not cover rear vents or install the unit in a
closed cabinet or shelves. The unit is equipped with cooling
fans. If you install the unit in an enclosure, make sure there
is adequate space at the top of the unit to allow hot air to rise
and escape. If this happens, turn off the power to the moni-
tor and unplug the power cord. If the room where the moni-
tor is installed is particularly hot, move the monitor to a
cooler location, and wait for the monitor to cool for 60 min-
utes. If the problem persists, contact your Mitsubishi dealer
for service.

2. Do not use the power cord polarized plug with extension
cords or outlets unless the prongs can be completely
inserted.

3. Do not expose the unit to water or moisture.

4. Avoid damage to the power cord, and do not attempt to
modify the power cord.

5. Unplug the unit during electrical storms or if the unit will
not be used over a long period.

6. Do not open the cabinet which has potentially dangerous
high voltage components inside. If the unit is damaged in
this way the warranty will be void. Moreover, there is a seri-
ous risk of electric shock.

7. Do not attempt to service or repair the unit. Mitsubishi  is
not liable for any bodily harm or damage caused if unquali-
fied persons attempt service or open the back cover. Refer
all service to authorized Mitsubishi  Service Centers.
