17. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: (a) (b) (c) (d) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the TV. If the TV has been exposed to rain or water. If the TV does not operate normally by following the operating instructions, adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the TV to its normal operation. (e) If the TV has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. (f) When the TV exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service.

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital audio format. For PC video, use the PC-DVI input instead. Do not connect a computer to either TV HDMI jack. Use these inputs to connect to EIA/CEA-861 compliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats. These inputs can also accept DVI video inputs. To connect a DVI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to the HDMI/DVI AUDIO inputs on the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device. These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant. These inputs are certified for proper interoperability with other products certified by Simplay.

11. AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT

AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT jacks send analog audio of the program currently shown on the screen to an A/V surround sound receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital channels, FireWire (IEEE 1394/DTVLink) devices and HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If using an analog A/V receiver or stereo system, this is the only audio connection needed between it and the TV.

6. HDMI/DVI AUDIO

Use these analog audio inputs when connecting DVI video devices to the TVs HDMI jacks. Unlike HDMI, DVI does not carry audio information on the same cable. For analog audio from a personal computer, use the PCDVI AUDIO jacks instead.

12. DIGITAL AUDIO OUT

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.

7. PC-DVI

PC-DVI is a DVI-I input compatible with both DVI-A (analog) and DVI-D (digital) inputs. Connect your personal computers HDMI, DVI, or VGA video output to this jack. An adapter or converter cable may be required. Please see Appendix B for signal compatibility. To hear audio from the computer, connect analog audio cables from the computer to the PC-DVI AUDIO jacks.
13. IR Emitter NetCommand
IR Emitters connected to this jack are used by the TVs NetCommand system to control external IR remote controlled analog devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite receivers and audio receivers. This system also coordinates with the TV Guide On Screen system to control cable boxes and to activate the record feature of your VCR.

IEEE 1394 Devices

Compatible IEEE 1394 Devices
Compatible A/V devices include some, but not all, cable boxes, D-VHS VCRs, A/V discs, and future products. Some devices may have IEEE 1394 connectors but are not compatible with the TV. Areas of compatibility to consider are: 1. Digital Video Signals The TV can decode MPEG2 video as provided by cable boxes and some camcorders. Many camcorders provide DV video, which the TV cannot decode. Connect a DV camcorder to the TV using analog audio plus composite video, S-video, or component video, or use HDMI audio/ video. Other types of digital video, such as PC video provided by some computers, must be decoded by the source device and sent to the TV as analog video, S-video, or DVI/HDMI video. 2. Digital Audio Signals When received with video signals, the TV can decode Dolby Digital signals and MPEG audio signals. Other types of digital audio as provided by some digital recording devices, such as MP3 audio and DTS audio, cannot be decoded by the TV when received over IEEE 1394 connections. The TV may not be able to pass incompatible digital audio signals on the coaxial digital audio output. These signals may pass to other devices, however, on the IEEE 1394 cable. 3. Digital Control Signal The TV can serve as the control center for IEEE 1394 audio/video devices, such as VCRs, A/V Discs, tuners, cable boxes, and amplifiers that are compatible with the following IEEE 1394 control standards. EIA-775. Designed for tuning devices such as cable boxes, allowing the device to send simple graphics. This standard does not, however, allow the TV to control the cable box by IEEE 1394. AV/C (Audio Video Control). Designed to provide basic controls such as play, stop, channel selection, and volume, as appropriate for the device.

732 Series 1080p DLP HDTV
Models: WD-57732 WD-65732

Overview

Mitsubishis 732 Series 1080p DLP HDTVs feature Mitsubishis 6-Color Light Engine and unique TurboLight150 lamp system. These 57 and Series HDTVs produce big, bright and bold pictures with unsurpassed detail and vibrant colors. At their heart is a Mitsubishi exclusive 6-Color Light Engine, the first to offer 6-color processing. This proprietary Mitsubishi 1080p DLP digital light engine features PerfectColor and PerfecTint to adjust the intensity and tint of each color independently and separately for each input. And Dark Detailer provides deep blacks and rich dark scene detail. The 732 Series gives the perfect picture, whether watching broadcast, cable or satellite TV, or for DVD and HD video games. The stunning 732 Series picture is further enhanced by all-new digital signal processing system. Plush1080p allows for precise deinterlacing and upconversion to 1080p. 4D Video Noise Reduction creates smooth yet detailed images. And Tru1080p processes the highest resolution HDTV signals in their native format. The 732 models are Digital Cable Ready HDTVs with CableCARD slots, so digital cable channels can be viewed without a cable box. Both televisions have two HDMI inputs, three component video inputs and a DVI-I input for a digital PC connection. ClearThought Easy Connect recognizes inputs as they are plugged in to simplify set up and day-to-day operation. And NetCommand allows for simple icon based control of most any brand of Cable or Satellite set top box, AV Receiver or other home theater component.
