Maintenance and Cleaning
This LCD Projection TV uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly.
Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
●
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no
guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a
shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
●
If the LCD Projection TV indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE
indicator lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the LCD Projection TV has
cooled down.
( Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual. ) Continuous use
of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
●
A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its
lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in
which the LCD Projection TV and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the LCD Projection TV’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact
an authorized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check
carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the LCD Projection TV or
coming out from the cooling air circulation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up
carefully. No one should check the inside of the LCD Projection TV except those who are authorized
trained technicians and who are familiar with LCD Projection TV service. Inappropriate attempts to
service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an
accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
