About the LCD projection TV

Although the LCD projection TV is made with high- precision technology, black dots may appear or bright points of light (red, blue, or green) may appear constantly on the screen. This is a structural property of the panel and is not a malfunction.

When High contrast non-moving images such as station logos and channel numbers are displayed for a long period of time, there may be some image retention on the screen. This is only a temporary condition. Turning off the power for a while or letting the TV run on another channel will eliminate the retained image.

If direct sunlight or other strong illumination shines on the screen, part of the screen may appear white due to reflections from behind the screen. This is a structural property of the LCD projection TV.

Do not expose the screen to direct illumination or sunlight.

About the AC power cord

The shape of AC plug varies, depending on the regions.

Projection lamp

Your LCD projection TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. It is time to replace the lamp with a new one (not supplied) when:

the message, “Projection lamp is nearing end of life. Please replace the lamp.” appears on the screen,

the lamp replacement indicator on the front panel blinks in red,

screen images become dark,

no image appears on the display after prolonged use.

In rare instances, the bulb may pop inside the lamp unit, but the lamp unit is designed to contain all of broken glass pieces inside the lamp unit. (See “Replacing the lamp” on page 46.)

When the lamp eventually burns out, you may hear a noticeable pop sound. This is normal and is inherent in this type of lamp.

This television’s lamp contains mercury and should be disposed of properly. Consult your local authorities regarding safe disposal. If the lamp is broken during use, a small amount of mercury may be released. In this situation, move away from the product and ventilate the area. In case of accidental contact or inhalation, or if you feel unwell, consult a physician promptly.

Cooling fan

This LCD projection TV uses a cooling fan. You may hear some fan noise (depending on the placement of the LCD projection TV), which may be more noticeable during the night, or when ambient noise is particularly low.
