2) Unplug the television.
Disconnect the television’s power cord from the AC outlet. Make sure the 10 LED lights have stopped blinking before you unplug the television. Never attempt to replace the lamp with the television plugged in.
3) Remove the left speaker panel.
The next step is to remove the left speaker panel located at the bottom of the front of the television cabinet. The top of the speaker panels are held with Velcro. Make sure the television is unplugged (see steps 1 and 2) before removing the speaker panel.
To remove the panel - Grab the panel from the side near the top. Gently pull the top away from the television. When the top part of the speaker panel is fully away from the television, lift up. The panel will come away from the bottom of the television. Set the panel aside.
4) Remove the filter cover.
The lamp is located behind the air filter unit. To access the lamp you will need to remove this filter unit and the fil- ter cover. To remove this filter cover you will need a Phillips head screwdriver. First loosen the screws located at the four corners of the panel. Once the screws have been loosened, slide the cover up until the large holes align with the screw heads. Gently pull the panel away from the television and set aside. (Please see Appendix A for
illustrations for removing the speaker panel and filter covers).
