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, microfiber, 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 deter-

gent, such as dishwashing detergent, to the water
used to moisten the cloth. Rinse with a second
cloth moistened only with water. Dry with a third
dry, soft, non-abrasive cloth.

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

ventilation 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.
