How Connections Affect the PIP and POP  
To see a picture in the PIP or POP inset, you  
may need to select an input source. If the  
only input connected is ANT-A, then both  
the main picture and the PIP/POP insert  
will be from that input source. If other  
video equipment is connected, you may be  
able to view these input sources as the  
PIP/POP insert. When connecting your new  
Mitsubishi bigscreen, it is important to under-  
stand which main picture and PIP/POP input  
sources can and cannot be used together.  
Table 1 shows which inputs can and cannot  
be used together and the limitations they  
may require. To see if 480i, DTV 480p,  
1080i, Conponent-1 or Component-2 480p is  
being displayed as the main picture, press

Warning: Do not leave stationary, toolbar, or partial images on-screen  
for extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.  
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.  
The VGA capability of this television is  
designed for occasional use ONLY.  
We recommend that screen saver acti-  
vation time be set to less than ve  
minutes and that when using a device  
through the VGA port, you use lower  
brightness and contrast settings. If  
your computer programs allow, tool-  
bars should be set to hidden mode.  
It is not meant to be used as a work station  
or to view static or odd-shaped images for  
an extended period of time. Any device  
connected to your television via the VGA  
port, including, but not limited to, personal  
computer, game system, or digital set-top  
box, must have its screen saver function  
activated to prevent damage to the televi-  
Please remember that most computer pro-  
grams and video game systems display  
static images, such as boxes, buttons, tool  
sion. We DO NOT recommend the use of bars, and games scores that can damage  
any external device that does not have a  
screen saver function with this television.  
the television if used for extended periods  
of time, repeatedly, or frequently. The VGA  
Input will automatically select the “Stan-  
dard” screen format and ll the screen.  
No other formats are available with the  
VGA Input. Standard television overscan  
is used, so VGA images will be cropped  
on all sides. Resizing of some displays  
may be required. Consult your owner’s  
manual for computers, computer programs  
and game systems for assistance with  
resizing display images. Please see page  
58 for an explaination of uneven picture  
aging.

e’re proud of the many advances  
in digital television, in which we  
have played a major role. Digital  
W
broadcasting brings flawless pictures and  
sound. At its highest performence level,  
high definition television (HDTV) delivers  
images up to six times more detailed than  
standard analog television.

IRIS™ is the Intelligent Room Illumi-  
nation (light) Sensor. When IRIS™ is  
on, your TV will automatically adjust pic-  
ture contrast and brightness for best  
quality (Contrast and Brightness cannot  
be adjusted manually).  
Video Noise reduces minor noise (grain-  
iness) in the broadcast or input signal.  
Image Type maximizes the original  
camera media: Video or Film. Video  
media uses a video camera and is cre-  
ated at 30 frames per second. Film  
media uses a lmc ame r aand i screat ed  
at 24 frames per second. Examples of  
Video media are live TV broadcast such  
as news, special events, or video taped  
programs. Examples of lmme di aar e  
motion pictures, made-for-TV movies,  
and many prime time programs. Filmed  
media is converted by the broadcaster  
or home video company to 30 frames  
per second to match TV or video stan-  
dards. This conversion can leave subtle  
“picture artifacts” or conversion errors.  
Setting the Image Type to Film can  
reduce the picture artifacts and improve  
the picture quality, when viewing a 480i  
image.  
Contrast provides a slider to adjust  
the white-to-black level. Low contrast  
shows a variety of shades in darker  
images, while high contrast shows  
darker images more uniformly black and  
makes colors appear more vibrant.  
Brightness provides a slider to adjust  
the overall brightness of the picture.  
Sharpness provides a slider to adjust  
the detail and clarity.  
Color provides a slider to adjust the  
color intensity.  
Tint provides a slider to adjust the pro-  
portion of red to green.  
Color Temp (Color Temperature) allows  
you to adjust how white images are dis-  
played. Your choices are:  
Low 6500K or Low (for DTV): White images  
will have a warm cast to them. This adjust-  
ment is an average and can vary due to  
ambient room lighting, video scene bright-  
ness and the TV’s age. The Low 6500K  
represents the 6500K industry standard for  
NTSC (non-DTV) pictures.  
Medium: White images will be balanced  
between the Low (warm) and High (cool)  
settings.  
High: White images will have a cool cast  
to them. This setting may provide the most  
realistic picture under bright lighting.

Part IV: Operation  
Remote Control Functions: Display Formats  
This is a wide screen TV (also known as  
a 16:9 TV). This shape re ect st he new  
types of images available from HDTV and  
many DVDs. There are still many older style  
narrow screen images (called 4:3 aspect  
ratio) you will encounter. While there will  
never be a perfect solution for displaying  
a narrow image on a wide screen, Mitsubi-  
shi offers several display formats to choose  
from.  
1
Standard: This is the full screen format.  
HDTV signals will automatically use this  
format. This format is also useful to dis-  
play Anamorphic DVDs that have 1.78:1  
or 1.85:1 aspect ratios. Anamorphic  
DVDs that have the 2.35:1 aspect ratio  
will still display black bars at the top and  
bottom. Narrow (4:3) images will be  
stretched evenly from side to side.  
2
Expand: This will enlarge the picture,  
cropping off some of the image at the  
top and bottom. This is useful to reduce  
the letterbox top and bottom bars of non-  
anamorphic DVDs or to correct narrow  
(4:3) images that have been stretched in  
the Standard format.  
Press FORMAT on the TV remote control  
to cycle through the ve avai labl edi spl ay  
formats.  
When displaying VGA or HDTV (1080i)  
signals, the FORMAT control will not  
operate. All HD signals will automaticaly  
be shown using the Standard format ,  
and will llthe screen.  
3
Zoom: This will enlarge the picture, crop-  
ping off some of the image at each  
side, and top and bottom. This is useful  
to remove or reduce the black top and  
bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with  
a 2.35:1 aspect ratio.  
Stretched and Zoom formats are not  
available during PIP/POP functions.  
4
Stretched: (Not available when viewing  
480p signals) This format will stretch a  
narrow (4:3) image across the screen,  
however, there is less stretch in the  
center than the sides. This will allow  
the entire narrow image to be displayed  
across the screen with less distortion  
than seen in the Standard format.  
Caution should be observed when using  
the Narrow format due to the stationary  
gray side bars. Please see pages 23 or  
58 for guidelines concerning stationary  
images.  
5
Narrow: This format will display narrow  
(4:3) images in their original shape, and  
add stationary gray side bars to ll the  
screen.

Part IV: Operation  
Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on-screen for  
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.  
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.  
Still or stationary images may be received  
from broadcasters, cable channels, sat-  
ellite channels, DVD discs, video tapes,  
laser discs, on-line services, web/internet  
searching devices, video games, and digi-  
tal TV tuner/converter boxes. Examples of  
these types of images can be, but are not  
limited to the following:  
The normal use of a TV should include  
a mixture of TV picture types. The most  
frequently used picture types should ll  
the screen with constantly moving images  
rather than stationary images or patterns.  
Displaying the same stationary patterns  
over extended periods of time, or display-  
ing the same stationary pattern frequently  
can leave a subtle but permanent ghost  
image. To avoid this, mix your viewing  
pattern. Do not show the same stationary  
image for more than 15% of your total TV  
viewing in any one week. Display con-  
stantly moving and changing images that  
ll the screen whenever possi bl e.  
Letterbox top/bottom black bars:  
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 watch-  
ing a standard (4:3) program on a wi-  
descreen (16:9) TV.  
Stock-market report bars: ticker run-  
ning at the bottom of the TV screen.  
Shopping channel logos & pricing dis-  
plays: bright graphics that are shown con-  
stantly 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.  
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 ll the screen wi th  
constantly changing images. Under these  
conditions, picture tubes age at an even  
rate across the entire screen. This main-  
tains a TV picture that is evenly bright over  
the whole screen. Stationary images or  
images that only partially ll the screen  
(leaving black or colored bars to ll the  
screen), when used over extended periods  
of time or when viewed repeatedly, can  
cause uneven aging of the phosphors  
and leave subtle ghosts of the stationary  
images in the picture.  
On-line (internet) web sites: or any  
other stationary or repetitive computer style  
images.

Appendix A: Bypassing the V-Chip Lock  
Bypassing the V-Chip Lock  
After you set the lock, you need your  
passcode to view a V-Chip locked pro-  
gram, view the locked TV, cancel the  
lock, or enter the V-Chip lock menus.  
If you forget your passcode, you can  
view the locked TV without entering your  
passcode. This is done by pressing the  
number 9 and QV buttons on the remote  
TV control at the same time, when your  
passcode is requested. This process  
temporarily unlocks the TV.  
When entering the V-Chip Lock menu,  
this process deletes your old passcode  
and prompts you to enter a new pass-  
code.  
Cut along the dotted line and le bypass  
instructions in a safe place for future  
reference.  
When changing or deleting your  
passcode, you must use the remote  
control included with this TV. You  
cannot use a Mitsubishi remote control  
from another component or a “universal”  
remote.
