Important notes about your DLPTM projection TV 1) The light source for this TV is a projection lamp unit with a limited service life. When the lamp wears out, the picture may become dark or black or the lamp may fail, at which time you must replace the lamp unit. See "Lamp unit replacement and care" on pages 103-105. 2) If you set the lamp mode to Low Power, each time you turn on the TV, the lamp will start out in High Bright mode but will switch to Low Power mode in approximately 1 minute. You will notice a change in screen brightness when this happens. This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction. (See page 75 for details.) 3) Each time you turn on the TV, it may take several minutes for the picture to obtain full brightness. 4) This TV's display is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology; however, an occasional pixel (dot of light) may show constantly on the screen. This is a structural property of DLP™ (Digital Light Processing™) technology in the TV and is not a sign of malfunction. Such pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal viewing distance (see item 29 on page 4). 5) Depending on the media you are viewing, it is possible, although unlikely, that a limited number of viewers may see a "rainbow effect" on the screen, which can, in rare instances, result in eye fatigue. This is a rare occurrence related to technology of this type and is not a sign of TV malfunction. 6) Always sit approximately 10-25 feet away from the TV and as directly in front of it as possible. The picture quality may be affected by your viewing position and length of viewing time. If you sit too closely to the TV for too long, you may suffer from eye fatigue. See item 29 on page 4. 7) This TV contains several cooling fans to moderate the internal temperature. You may be able to hear the fans for several minutes after the TV is turned off. This is a function of the Quick Restart™ feature and is not a sign of TV malfunction. You can set the Quick Restart™ feature to stop the fans as soon as the TV is turned off. See "Setting the Quick Restart™ feature" on page 51. 8) The green and red LED lights at the bottom center of the TV front indicate your TV's current status. If either light flashes, see "LED indications" on page 99 for details. 9) If you unplug the power cord, when you plug the power cord in again the message "Now Booting..." will display on-screen until the picture appears, or the green LED will blink until the TV enters standby mode (plugged in but not powered on). This is normal and is not a sign of malfunction. 10) When connecting an external A/V device, if you connect the device's video output to the TV and the device's audio output to a separate audio system, the picture and sound may not synchronize completely. 11) When playing a video game on this TV, there may be a slight delay between your command (e.g., joystick, keyboard) and the picture movement on the screen.
