Replacing the Lamp
• A Projection TV lamp is a consumable item, and should be replaced from time to time for best projec-
tor operation. If the screen image becomes dark, or timer, lamp and Temp LEDs flicker off at the same
time, you may have to replace the lamp.
• When changing the lamp, you should first verify the type/model, and then use only the correct lamp
replacement. The code for lamp regulation and usage is marked on the label. If you remove the lamp,
you can identify this replacement code. You should only replace the lamp with the one of the same reg-
ulation code.
• If you wish to buy a new lamp, please phone your Service Center or a nearby TV dealer, and tell them
the model of your projection unit.
• You can identify the lamp type on the left side of TV and the lamp cover.
• The TV will be damaged if you use a lamp that is different from the original supplied by the manufac-
turer.
• Please don't remove the lamp except when replacing with a new one.
• Please turn off TV power before changing a lamp and then unplug after waiting 1 minute.
• The cooling fan will help cool the lamp so you can safely remove it. The surface of the Lamp is very
hot. Please wait for 30 minutes after turning off your projection TV to handle the lamp.
• Please keep the old lamp away from flammable articles and children. Dispose of properly.
• Don't allow dirt or dust to accumulate inside the lamp cover or on the Lamp.
• A dirty cover or lamp can catch fire, explode and cause electric shock.
• Please don't touch the front glass of a new lamp or the glass of the lamp container.
• If a new lamp is improperly handled, the quality of the screen image can be affected and the expected
life span of the lamp can be reduced.
• Be sure to tighten the lamp cover on the TV after changing the lamp. Note that the TV will not function
if the lamp cover is not securely attached. Please tighten the holding screw on the lamp cover after it
has been attached to the TV.
