Introduction
Thank you for choosing RCA Scenium
Congratulations on purchasing this RCA Scenium High Defi nition Television (HDTV) featuring
Texas Instruments Digital Light Processing™ technology–a true viewing experience. Your purchase
decision represents an investment in a new generation of technology–DLP™ and HDTV. Even
though this is a technologically advanced HDTV, it is the most user-friendly of its kind–with
comprehensive on-screen instructions that guide you through all of the TV’s features.
This introduction has three parts that describe why an RCA HDTV featuring DLP™ technology is an
excellent choice:
Part 1: DLP™ technology–brilliance in color and design
Part 2: Why RCA Scenium HDTV is better
Part 3: Other Key Features of owning an RCA Scenium HDTV
Part 1: DLP™ technology–brilliance in color and design
RCA Scenium brings you pictures with DLP™ system–a brilliantly choreographed, engineering
marvel that combines microscopic mirrors, light, and color to bring you the best and brightest
pictures possible.
How DLP™ Technology Works
In general, DLP™ technology combines microscopic mirrors, a
specially designed semiconductor, and a color wheel to adjust
light to display the most brilliant, accurate images! Your HDTV
with DLP™ technology doesn’t use Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs),
which means you don’t have to worry about screen burn
(fi xed video images burning onto the screen permanently) or
convergence (realigning the CRTs). The diagram on the left
illustrates the complex system.
Thin and Light
The effi ciency of DLP™ technology enabled our design team to
create a high-performance HDTV that is about 16 inches thin
and weighs less than 100 pounds.
Lamp Replacement
DLP™ technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you’ll need
to replace this lamp, which you can do yourself by following
the instructions that come packed with the new lamp. To
order the correct lamp, you’ll need to know your TV’s model
number, serial number, and lamp type–this information is listed
on the Service Model Number sticker (example of the sticker
is shown on the left). Face the back of the TV. The sticker is
located on the right side of the TV. The lamp type can also be
found in the TV’s Lamp Power menu. Go to page 76 for more
information. For future reference, write down the information
in the space provided at the left.
