LAMP REPLACEMENT
Lamp Replacement
After extended use, if the TV picture turns dark, the color looks unusual or LAMP INDICATOR light
turns on, then it is time to replace the lamp with a new lamp. Lamp should be replaced after 4,000
hours of use.
WARNING:
The lamp gets very hot! The lamp may explode if improperly handled. To avoid injury, please observe the following
precautions.
• Do not open lamp compartment or attempt to remove lamp assembly unless the lamp assembly is being replaced.
• Unplug the product’s power cord from the AC outlet before attempting to replace the lamp assembly.
• If the lamp is in use when failure occurs or if the lamp has exploded, wait at least 30-45 minutes for the lamp to
cool before opening the lamp compartment or touching the lamp assembly or any broken pieces.
• Broken lamp pieces can cause injury. Handle with gloves to avoid cuts.
• Do not place any foreign objects inside the lamp compartment.
• When installing a new lamp, follow handling instruction included with the new lamp. Do not touch glass surface of
new lamp.
• Please dispose of old lamp assembly properly.
CAUTION!
A ”LAMP” indicator will light when lamp becomes hot. Unplug product’s power cord from the AC outlet and allow
lamp to cool for at least 30-45 minutes. If “LAMP” indicator is still lit, please contact your authorized service center.

of the lamp and ruin the picture quality.

• Do not pour water onto the removed lamp or put any object inside the lamp.
• Once the lamp is removed, do not put flammable materials and metal objects inside the
lamp receptacle on the TV set. Do not touch the receptacle.
