• For replacement, you will need a 5.91 Inches-long Phillips screwdriver and a pair of gloves.
Replacing the Lamp
•Why do I need to replace the lamp?
The lamp used in a projection TV has a limited lifespan. For the best screen quality it needs to be
replaced periodically. After replacing the lamp, the screen quality will be bright and clear as new.
•When do I need to replace it?
It should be replaced when the screen becomes darker, less clear or when all three LEDs on the front
(Timer, Lamp, & Temp.) are flashing.
• Check before lamp replacement
1. The lamp must be the same code number and type.
2. The lamp type is indicated on the right side of the TV. It is also indicated on the lamp case.
3. After checking the code number for the lamp, give the code number to the store where you
purchased the TV or to a Samsung Service center.
•Caution
1. Replace with the correct code numbered lamp to avoid damage to the TV.
2. Turn the power off and wait for 30 minutes before replacing the lamp as it will be hot.
3. Do not touch the glass part of the lamp with your bare hands nor insert any foreign object inside
the cover as it may cause poor screen quality, electric shock or fire.
4. Do not place the old lamp near flammable objects or within the reach of children.
NOTES
• Be sure the replacement Lamp is the same type.
• After replacing the lamp, align the lamp cover with the groove and secure the screw.
• The TV will not turn on if the lamp cover is not correctly closed (as this will activate the
protective circuit).
