Important notes about your DLPprojection TV

1)The light source for this TV is a projection lamp unit with a limited service life. When the lamp wears out, the picture

may become dark or black or the lamp may fail, at which time you must replace the lamp unit (- “Lamp unit replacement and care” on pages 81–83).

2)When the lamp mode is set to Low Power, every time the TV is powered on, the lamp will initially be in High Bright mode but will switch to Low Power mode after a short period of time. You may notice a change in screen brightness

when this happens. This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction (- page 55 for details).

3)Every time the TV is powered on, it may take several minutes for the picture to obtain full brightness (- IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT “HOT LAMP RESTART,” on the next page).

4)The TV’s display is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, an occasional pixel (dot of light) may show constantly on the screen. This is a structural property of DLP(Digital Light Processing) technology and is not a sign of malfunction. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance.

5)Always sit approximately 10–25 feet away from the TV and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture quality may be affected by your viewing position and length of viewing time. If you sit too closely to the TV for too long, you may suffer from eye fatigue. See item 29 under “Care” on page 4 of the separate Installation Guide.

6)Depending on the media you are viewing, it is possible, although unlikely, that a limited number of viewers may see a “rainbow effect” on the screen, which can, in rare instances, result in eye fatigue. This is a rare occurrence related to DLP technology and is not a sign of TV malfunction.

7)This TV contains several cooling fans to moderate

the internal temperature. You may be able to hear the fans for several minutes after the TV is turned

off. This is a function of the Quick Restartfeature and is not a sign of TV malfunction. You can set the Quick Restartfeature to stop the fans as soon as the TV is powered off. See “Setting the Quick Restartfeature” (- page 30).

8)The yellow and blue LED lights at the bottom center of the

TV front indicate your TV’s current status. If either light flashes, see “LED indications” (- page 80).

9)Every time the TV power cord is plugged in, the yellow LED will blink until the TV enters standby mode (plugged in but not powered on). This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction.
