Note
To CATV system installers:
Article 820-40 of the NEC
provides guidelines for
proper grounding and
specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected
to the grounding system of
the building, as close to the
point of cable entry as
practical.
•Do not place the TV in an area subject to vibration.
•Do not place the TV or the remote control on top of or near heat-producing equipment
or in a hot location.
•Do not operate the TV in an area with high temperatures or humidity, or where large
amounts of dust are present.
•Leave at least 12 inches (30 cm) of room around the vents on the sides of the TV and do
not block the vents. They provide ventilation and prevent the TV from overheating.
•Do not use the TV in temperatures outside of the range of 41 to 95 °F (5 to 35 °C).
•Do not store the TV in temperatures outside the range of 14 to 140 °F (–10 to 60 °C).
•If you place the TV in a permanent installation near a wall, secure the TV to the wall
using screws and steel wire connected to the two screw holes on the top rear of the TV.
Plugging the TV Into an Electrical Outlet
•Use only the type of power source indicated on the TV. If you are not sure of the power
available, consult your dealer or power company.
•Place the TV near a wall outlet where the power cord can be easily unplugged.
•Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles. This
can cause fire or electric shock.
•Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug (two blades, with one wider than
the other). Connect the plug only to a compatible outlet where you can fully insert the
plug to prevent exposure of the plug blades. If you are unable to insert the plug fully, try
reversing the plug. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the outlet.
•Do not place the TV where the power cord can be walked on. This may result in fraying
or damage to the plug.
•Take the following precautions when plugging in the TV. Failure to comply with these
precautions could result in sparks, fire, or electric shock: Do not insert the plug into an
outlet with dust present. Do not insert the plug with wet hands. Insert the plug firmly
into the outlet.
•Unplug the TV during lightning storms or when it will not be used for extended periods.
•Unplug the TV from the wall outlet before cleaning.
•Pull on the plug housing to unplug the power cord; do not pull on the cord.

(part number V13H151010).
•Never spill liquid of any kind into the TV.
•Do not move or lift the TV by moving or lifting the stand or table supporting it; the TV
may fall and cause injury.
Replacing the Projection Lamp Safely
•Never touch the projection lamp immediately after turning off the TV or you could be
burned.Wait at least 30 minutes after turning off the TV to let the lamp cool down
completely.
•If the lamp has broken, handle the shards carefully to avoid injury.
•The used lamp contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations regarding
disposal or recycling. Do not put the lamp in the trash.
•Install the new lamp securely to avoid an electrical short or other damage. Insert the lamp
as described on page 97, pushing it all the way into its slot. Tighten the screws to lock the
lamp securely into place or the lamp will not come on.
•Do not touch the glass on the lamp with your bare hands. This can shorten the lamp life
and obscure the projected image. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.
•Do not drop the replacement lamp or bump it against any surface; the lamp could be
permanently damaged.

Outdoor Antenna Installation and Grounding
•It is best to have a professional technician install an antenna on the roof of a structure.
If you install an antenna yourself, be careful to avoid serious injury.
•If an outside antenna is connected through other equipment, be sure the antenna system
is grounded so as to provide protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.
In the U.S.A., section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides
information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the
lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrode, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.
Example of Antenna Grounding in National Electrical Code Instructions
Ground clamp
Antenna lead in wire
Antenna discharge unit
(NEC Section 810-20)
Grounding conductors
Grounding clamps
Power service grounding electrode system
(NEC ART 250, Part H)
(NEC Section 810-21)
•An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines/
electric lights or power circuits, or where it can fall onto such power lines or circuits.
When installing an outdoor antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep it from
touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
•For added protection during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused
for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna.
This will prevent damage due to lightning and power-line surges.

Setting Up and Controlling
Channels
If you plan to use your TV’s built-in tuner to view television programs, you’ll need to set up
your available channels. You may also want to use the TV’s channel control features or block
unwanted viewing of channels or input sources by children, as described in these sections:
•“Setting Up Your TV Channels” below
•“Labelling TV Channels” on page 51
•“Selecting Channels” on page 50
•“Setting Up Favorite Channels” on page 50
•“Setting Up Parental Controls” on page 53
Setting Up Your TV Channels
If you’re receiving your TV programs using a broadcast antenna or a cable system without a
cable box, you need to set up the channels that the TV can receive.
You can use Auto Program to automatically search for the available channels and set them up.
Then, for channels that are not automatically detected, you can use Manual Program to add
them. You can also choose to have the TV “skip” certain channels that you don’t want to view.
Automatically Setting Up Your Channels
Before setting up your channels, make sure you’ve connected your broadcast antenna or cable
service line to the ANT 1 or ANT 2 connector on the back of the TV. Then press the
TV/Video button on the TV panel or remote control to select your TV signal.
Note
If you watch TV programs
using an HDTV tuner, or a
cable, satellite, or digital TV
service with a separate
receiver box, you don’t
need to set up your
channels. The tuner or
receiver box does that for
you.
1Press the Menu button on the TV panel or the remote control.
2To move to the Channel tab, press Next >.
3When the Channel tab is highlighted, press Enter. The Antenna 1 setting is highlighted.

signal source connected to
the other antenna
connector (ANT 1 or 2),
press the TV/Video button
to switch to that source.
Then repeat steps
1 through 5 to set up the
channels on that source
too.
The menu disappears and Auto Program Setting appears in the middle of the screen
as the TV begins searching for available channels. It reports the current channel in the
upper right corner. This process takes a few minutes, depending on the number of
channels available.
When it’s finished, you return to the Channel menu.
If the automatic program doesn’t detect all of your available channels or if you want to set up
the TV to skip certain available channels, follow the steps in the next section.

Adjusting the Picture Quality
Your TV offers three color modes (preset picture settings) that let you quickly adjust the
picture for various lighting environments and image types. After selecting a suitable color
mode, you can fine-tune the picture by adjusting its brightness, contrast, sharpness,

custom color modes that let you quickly adjust the picture for special viewing needs.
Color modes and picture quality adjustments are saved independently for each image source.
Before changing settings, select the source you want to adjust (for example, HDTV tuner or
DVD player) and display a picture. After you finish adjusting the settings for this source,
switch to each additional source you’ll be viewing and make any desired adjustments.

Aspect
button
Most TV and video signals determine the size of the image on your screen. If your video
source is connected to the TV’s Video or S-Video port, or if you’re watching a TV program
through the TV’s built-in tuner, you can change the shape of the picture (called the aspect
ratio) by pressing the Aspect button on the remote control.
Press the Aspect button repeatedly to select any one of the screen sizes shown below. The
name of the aspect ratio appears in the upper left corner.
Normal is the default size of your video
source, if it is in standard 4:3 broadcast ratio.
Full stretches a standard 4:3 ratio image to fit
into your 16:9 ratio screen, stretching equally
on all sides.
66 Adjusting the Picture and Sound
Page 67
Wide stretches a standard 4:3 ratio image to fit
into your 16:9 ratio screen, but the image size
stretches increasingly more from the center to
the sides.
Zoom enlarges the entire screen and cuts off
some of the top and bottom for a closer view.
Use Zoom when you’re watching movies
broadcast in Letterbox format so they fit your
screen.
Auto lets the TV select a suitable aspect ratio
based on the signal it receives. If it can’t detect
an aspect ratio from the signal, it displays the
image using the default option selected in the

Compatible Photos and File Structure (CD)
If you create a CD-R/RW of your photos using a computer, make sure that you use the file
structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the photo viewer can
display your photos. Your CD-R/RW must contain folders and files using the following
structure and format:
•The folder structure must be:
Photo CD
Pictures
Va ca ti on
photo001.jpg
photo002.jpg
photo003.jpg
photo001.jpg
photo002.jpg
photo003.jpg
Note
The photo viewer cannot
display, enlarge, or print TIF
images. You see only the
icon on the viewer
screens for TIF images. You
can write TIF images to a
CD-R/RW and view them
on your computer,
however.
D:\nnnnnnnn\
where D: is the drive letter of your CD drive and nnnnnnnn is a folder up to 8 characters
long, such as \pictures. Any folders beneath the first level folder must also be no more
than 8 characters long.
•The photo files must be named:
nnnnnnnn.jpg
where nnnnnnnn is a file name up to 8 characters long (consisting of alphanumeric
characters and the ~ and _ symbols), such as photo001.jpg. The file must be in JPEG
format.
•The photo files must contain a time stamp, so the slide show can display the files in time
stamp order.
•The photo files should contain thumbnail data, such as that included in Exif format
JPEG files, to speed up display of the files in the photo viewer.
You cannot use the TV to write photos to a CD-R/RW disc that was previously written to by
a computer. You can view and print photos from these discs, but you cannot write new photos
to them using your TV. This is because your TV and computer use different methods for
writing files. When you want to write photos to a CD-R/RW, use a new, blank disc.
Inserting a CD
Before you view photos on a CD, make sure you’ve connected the external CD-R/RW drive
that came with your TV. See page 15 for instructions.
Follow these steps to insert a CD-R/RW in your external CD-R/RW drive:
1Make sure the TV is turned on and the Power light is green and not flashing.
2Press the eject button on the drive to open the tray.

will vary depending on the mode selected, environmental conditions, and usage.
When it is time to replace the lamp, the TV displays a message on the screen.
The Lamp and Power lights on the front of the TV also indicate the status of the lamp.
You can purchase replacement lamp number V13H010R02 from your dealer or Epson. Call
(800) 873-7766 or visit the Epson Store at www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales only). In Canada,
please call (800) 463-7766 for dealer referral
Caution
If your picture quality is not
what it should be, try the
other solutions described in
“Picture Problems” on
page 112 to correct it. If
none of them work, you
may need to replace the
lamp. However, contact
Epson (see page 121) to
see if lamp replacement

Lamp Replacement Precautions
•Never touch the projection lamp immediately after turning off the TV or you could be
burned.Wait at least 30 minutes after turning off the TV to let the lamp cool down
completely.
•If the lamp has broken, handle the shards carefully to avoid injury.

•Do not drop the replacement lamp or bump it against any surface; the lamp could be
permanently damaged.
