Replacing the Lamp
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 or XL-2100 (for WE655 series) or XL-2200 (for WF655 series)
replacement lamp (not supplied) for replacement. Use of any other lamp may damage the
LCD projection TV.
Before replacing the lamp, turn the power off on the main unit. Wait several minutes,
then unplug the power cord. (The cooling fan will continue to blow for about two
minutes after turning the power off.)
Allow the lamp to cool down completely before removing it. The surface of the lamp
remains extremely hot for at least 30 minutes after the power has been turned off.

Additional Connections
For best audio performance, connect your digital audio components
using either digital optical or digital coaxial audio connections.
Depending on which components are in your system, you may need
to complete additional connections. For example, if you have a
satellite receiver, you’ll need to connect the satellite antenna. If you
have an A/V receiver, you’ll need to connect speakers.
The connection diagrams shown in the reverse side are recommendations only; other
possible solutions may exist. Connections that include an A/V receiver can often be
very complex, so check your A/V receiver’s instruction manual for additional details.
Activating CableCARD™ Service
Before you can use CableCARD service,
you need to insert the CableCARD
(supplied by your cable provider) and
activate the service, as described in right.
Inserting the CableCARD incorrectly may result in permanent damage to the card and
the TV.
