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.
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 POWER indica-
tor on the front lower-left corner of the TV will start
blinking rapidly. After the POWER indicator stops
blinking, press the POWER key (TV side panel or
remote control) 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 (available on LT-40134, LT-46144,
and LT-52144 models only).
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."

picture sizes and shapes to find the one best
suited to the current program. See "TV Signals
and Display Formats."
