Appendices 73 Appendix C: HDMI Control of CEC Devices Many new HDMI devices have a feature called Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) or HDMI Control. HDMI Control allows one device, such as the TV, to control other devices, such as an A/V receiver or disc player. Use of CEC is optional. Each manufacturer chooses which CEC functions to support so it is difficult to predict which devices and features are compatible with Mitsubishi’s HDMI Control.
74 Appendices HDMI Control of an HDMI A/V Receiver and Connected Devices Cable box Use this setup to control CEC-enabled devices connected to your CEC-enabled A/V receiver. Note: DVD player Connect the A/V receiver to the TV with an HDMI cable before making other connections. HDMI OUT CEC-enabled devices connected with HDMI cables DIGITAL AUDIO IN 1.
75 Appendices Resolving CEC Conflicts Using HDMI Control Because each manufacturer selects which CEC functions to support, some devices can conflict with other devices. If control conflicts arise, you can: • Turn off TV control of an individual CEC-enabled device (see below). • Turn off CEC in the setup menu of one of the devices.
76 Appendices Appendix D: TV Care 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.
