Appendix F: Lamp Cartridge Replacement

Before you replace the lamp cartridge please note the following:

CAUTION: If the television is on, press POWER to turn off and allow the television to cool for one hour before attempting to replace the lamp cartridge.

LAMP LIFE

The light source for this television is a lamp, which is part of a lamp cartridge assembly. The actual life of the lamp in this television can vary, based on the lamp itself, the air temperature around the TV while it is operating, and your viewing patterns. Warmer air or poor ventilation shortens the lamp life, as does turning the television on and off frequently.

Mitsubishi warrants the lamp for one (1) year from date of the original purchase at retail. However, it is likely that the lamp will last significantly longer than this. When the end of the lamp's life is near, the TV will display a warning message for one minute, when the TV is powered on. The purpose of this message is to advise you that the lamp may fail soon. This warning message will continue to be displayed every time the TV is turned on, until the lamp cartridge is replaced and the lamp's status is reset.

After replacing the lamp cartridge, when you power on the TV, the message "Did you change the lamp? Press ENTER for Yes, press CANCEL for No" will appear, press ENTER to reset.

To order a new lamp cartridge, please call (800) 553-7278 and order part number 915P020010.

WARNING:

Do not remove the lamp cartridge immediately after turning off the television. You may get burned because of the lamp's high temperature. Allow the television to cool for one hour before attempting to replace the lamp cartridge.

Do not remove the lamp cartridge, except when replacing. Careless treatment can result in injury or fire.

Do not touch the lamp element directly. It may break and cause you to have injuries or burns.

Be sure not to insert any metal or flammable object into the lamp cartridge opening, as it may cause fire or electrical shock. If any object is inserted into the opening unplug the AC cord of the TV

and contact your dealer for service.

Install the lamp cartridge securely. Failure to do so may cause a fire.

The lamp in this product contains mercury. Disposal of mercury may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance: www.eiae.org
