Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp has a limited life which illuminates the picture.
If the screen becomes dark, the color looks unusual, or the LAMP indicator
on the front of the LCD projection TV flashes, it is time to replace the lamp
with a new one (not supplied).
❑
Use a Sony XL-2100U replacement lamp (not supplied) for
replacement. Failure to do so may damage the LCD projection TV.
❑
Do not remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement.
Failure to do so may cause fire or a skin burn.
❑
Before replacing the lamp, turn the power off on the main unit, then
several minutes later, unplug the power cord. (The cooling fan will
continue to blow for about two minutes after turning the power off.)
❑
Before replacing the lamp, let it cool down completely, as the surface of
the lamp remains extremely hot for at least 30 minutes after the power
has been turned off.
❑
Do not leave the removed lamp near flammable materials or within the
reach of children.
❑
Do not pour water onto the removed lamp, or put any object inside the
lamp. Doing so may cause the lamp to burst.
❑
Do not put flammable materials and metal objects inside the lamp
receptacle of the LCD projection TV after removing the lamp. Doing so
may cause fire or electrical shock. Also, be sure not to touch the
receptacle, because it may cause a skin burn.
❑
Mount the new lamp securely, otherwise the screen may become dark,
or it may cause a fire.
❑
Do not touch the glass with your fingers on the new lamp.
The used lamp
Used lamp contains Mercury, Dispose According to Local, State or Federal

✍
