Internal Fans
Internal cooling fans maintain proper operating tempera-
tures inside the TV. It is normal to hear the fans when
you first turn on the TV, during quiet scenes while viewing
the TV, and for a short time after shutting off the TV.
About thirty seconds after shutting off the TV you may
notice the fans getting louder. This is normal during rapid
cool-down of the lamp.
Cleaning Recommendations
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.
Occasionally clean dust build-up from the air-intake grilles
on the back and sides of the TV. Clean using a vacuum
cleaner with a brush attachment.
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 moist-
ened only with water. Dry with a third dry, soft, non-
abrasive cloth.
Glossy Surfaces (835 series models)

Screen
Follow the instructions for the top and sides, wiping •
gently in an up and down motion.
Clean the entire screen evenly, not just sections of the •
screen.
Do not allow liquid to drip down the screen, as some •
liquid may enter the TV through the gap between the
screen and screen frame.
You may purchase Mitsubishi Screen Cleaner, part •
number CLEANER-VSS, by calling (800) 553-7278.
General Cleaning Precautions
DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the venti-•
lation slots or any crevice.
DO NOT use any strong or abrasive cleaners, as •
these can scratch the surfaces.
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia, •
bleach, alcohol, benzene, 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.•
