HP MAKES NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY OR CONDITION, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, AND HP EXPRESSL Y DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS NOT STATED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LOCAL LAW OF JURISDICTIONS OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES, HP DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FOR ALL TRANSACTIONS OCCURRING IN THE UNITED STATES, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE. SOME STATES OR COUNTRIES/REGIONS DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITA TION ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR CONSUMER PRODUCTS. IN SUCH STATES OR COUNTRIES/REGIONS, SOME EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

THE LIMITED WARRANTY TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY BUT ARE IN ADDITION TO THE MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THIS PRODUCT TO YOU.

This Limited Warranty is applicable in all countries/regions and may be enforced in any country/region where HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service for the same product model number subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Limited Warranty.

Under the HP Global Limited Warranty program, products purchased in one country/region may be transferred to another country/region, where HP or its authorized service providers offer warranty service for the same product model number, without voiding the warranty. Warranty terms, service availability, and service response times may vary from country/region to country/region. Standard warranty service response time is subject to change due to local parts availability. If so, your HP authorized service provider can provide you with details.

HP is not responsible for any tariffs or duties that may be incurred in transferring the products. Transfer of the products may be covered by export controls issued by the United States or other governments.

HP warrants that the HP Hardware Products that you have purchased or leased from HP are free from defects in materials or workmanship under normal use during the Limited Warranty Period. The Limited Warranty Period starts on the date of purchase or lease from HP, or from the date HP completes installation. Your dated sales or delivery receipt, showing the date of purchase or lease of the product, is your proof of the purchase or lease date. You may be required to provide proof of purchase or lease as a condition of receiving warranty service. You are entitled to hardware warranty service according to the terms and conditions of this document if a repair to your HP Hardware Product is required within the Limited Warranty Period.

Unless otherwise stated, and to the extent permitted by local law, new HP Hardware Products may be manufactured using new materials or new and used materials equivalent to new in performance and reliability. HP may repair or replace HP Hardware Products (a) with new or previously used products or parts equivalent to new in performance and reliability, or (b) with equivalent products to an original product that has been discontinued. Replacement parts are warranted to be free from defects in material or workmanship for ninety (90) days, or for the remainder of the Limited Warranty Period of the HP Hardware Product they are replacing or in which they are installed, whichever is longer.

During the Limited Warranty Period, HP will, at its discretion, repair or replace any defective component. All component parts or hardware products removed under this Limited Warranty become the property of HP. In the unlikely event that your HP Hardware Product has recurring failures, HP , at its sole discretion, may elect to provide you with (a) a replacement unit of HP's choosi n g th a t is th e same or equivalent to your HP Hardware Product in performance, or (b) to give you a refund of your purchase price or lease payments (less interest) instead of a replacement. This is your exclusive remedy for defective products.

Exclusions

HP does not warrant that the operation of this product will be uninterrupted or error-free. HP is not responsible for damage that occurs as a result of your failure to follow the instructions intended for the HP Hardware Product.

This Limited Warranty does not apply to expendable or consumable parts and does not extend to any product from which the serial number has been removed or that has been damaged or rendered defective (a) as a result of accident, misuse, abuse, contamination, improper or inadequate maintenance or calibration, or other external causes; (b) by operation outside the usage parameters stated in the user documentation that shipped with the product; (c) by software, interfacing, parts, or supplies not supplied by HP; (d) by improper site preparation or maintenance; (e) by virus infection; (f) from loss or damage in transit; or (g) by modification or service by anyone other than (i) HP, (ii) an HP authorized service provider, or (iii) your own installation of end-user-replaceable HP or HP-approved parts if available for your product in the servicing country/region.

Exclusive Remedy

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LOCAL LAW, these terms and conditions constitute the complete and exclusive warranty agreement between you and HP regarding the HP Hardware Product you have purchased or leased. These terms and conditions supersede any prior agreements or representations – including representations made in HP sales literature or advice given to you by HP or an agent or employee of HP – that may have been made in connection with your purchase or lease of the HP Hardware Product. No change to the conditions of this Limited Warranty is valid unless it is made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of HP.

Limitation of Liability

IF YOUR HP HARDWARE PRODUCT FAILS TO WORK AS WARRANTED ABOVE, HP'S MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE LESSER OF THE PRICE YOU HAVE PAID FOR THE PRODUCT OR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY HARDW ARE COMPONENTS THAT MALFUNCTION IN CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE.

EXCEPT AS INDICATED ABOVE, IN NO EVENT WILL HP BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE PRODUCT OR THE FAILURE OF THE PRODUCT TO PERFORM, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR SAVINGS OR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. HP IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM MADE BY A THIRD PARTY OR MADE BY YOU FOR A THIRD PARTY.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES WHETHER DAMAGES ARE SOUGHT, OR A CLAIM MADE, UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR AS A TORT CLAIM (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY), A CONTRACT CLAIM, OR ANY OTHER CLAIM. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY CANNOT BE WAIVED OR AMENDED BY ANY PERSON. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WILL BE EFFECTIVE EVEN IF YOU HAVE ADVISED HP OR AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF HP OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, HOWEVER, WILL NOT APPL Y TO CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT MAY VARY FROM STATE TO STATE OR FROM COUNTRY/REGION TO COUNTRY/REGION. YOU ARE ADVISED TO CONSULT APPLICABLE STATE OR COUNTRY/REGION LAWS FOR A FULL DETERMINATION OF YOUR RIGHTS.

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, NEITHER HP NOR ITS THIRD-PARTY SUPPLIERS MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE HP PRODUCTS, AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE EXTENT HP OR ITS THIRD-PARTY SUPPLIERS MAY NOT DISCLAIM IMPLIED WARRANTIES, THE DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD PROVIDED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

Limited Warranty Period

The Limited Warranty Period for an HP Hardware Product is a specified, fixed period commencing on the date of purchase. The date on your sales receipt is the date of purchase unless HP or your reseller informs you otherwise in writing.

Types of Warranty Service

To enable HP to provide the best possible support and service during the Limited Warranty Period, you may be directed by HP to verify configurations, load most recent firmware, install software patches, run HP diagnostics tests, or use HP remote support solutions where applicable.

HP strongly encourages you to accept the use of, or to employ available support technologies provided by HP. If you choose not to deploy available remote support capabilities, you may incur additional costs due to increased support resource requirements. Listed below are the types of warranty support service that may be applicable to the HP Hardware Product you have purchased.

In-Home Warranty Service

Your HP Limited Warranty service may include in-home labor support to repair your hardware. HP provides in-home service during standard office hours. Standard office hours are typically 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, but may vary with local business practices. If your location is outside the customary service zone (typically 50 km) response times may be longer or there may be additional charges. To locate the nearest HP authorized service provider refer to the HP Web site at: www.hp.com/support

HP may, at its sole discretion, determine if in-home warranty service is required. For example, in many cases, the defect can be fixed by the use of a customer self repair (CSR) part that you are required to replace yourself based on instructions and documentation provided by HP. You are also required to cooperate with HP in attempting to resolve the problem over the telephone. This may involve performing routine diagnostic procedures, removing third-party options, and/or substituting options. In order to receive in-home support, you must: (a) have a representative present when HP provides warranty services at your site; (b) notify HP if products are being used in an environment which poses a potential health or safety hazard to HP employees or subcontractors; (c) subject to its reasonable security requirements, provide HP with sufficient, free, and safe access to and use of all facilities, information, and systems determined necessary by HP to provide timely support; (d) ensure that all manufacturers labels (such as serial numbers) are in place, accessible, and legible; and (e) maintain an environment consistent with product specifications and supported configurations.

If you require an HP representative to handle all component replacements, support uplift contracts are available at additional cost.

Carry-in Warranty Service

Under the terms of carry-in service, you will be required to deliver your HP Hardware Product to an authorized service location for warranty repair. You must prepay any shipping charges, taxes, or duties associated with transportation of the product to and from the service location. In addition, you are responsible for insuring any product shipped or returned to an authorized service location and assume risk of loss during shipping.

Advanced Unit Replacement Warranty Service

Your HP Limited Warranty may include an advance unit replacement warranty service. Under the terms of the advanced unit replacement warranty service, if a unit is diagnosed as defective, HP will ship a replacement product directly to you. On receiving the replacement unit you will be required to return the defective unit back to HP, in the packaging that arrives with the replacement unit, within a defined period of time, normally fifteen (15) days. HP will incur all shipping and insurance costs to return the defective unit to HP. Failure to return the defective unit may result in HP billing you for the replacement product.

Customer Self Repair Warranty Service

In countries/regions where it is available, your HP Limited Warranty may include a customer self repair warranty service. If applicable, HP will determine at its sole discretion that customer self repair is the appropriate method of warranty service. If so, HP will ship approved replacement parts directly to you to fulfill your HP Hardware Product warranty service. This will save considerable repair time. After you contact HP and the fault diagnosis identifies that the problem can be fixed using one of these parts, a replaceable part can be sent directly to you. Once the part arrives, replace the defective part pursuant to the provided instructions and documentation. If further assistance is required, call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will assist you over the phone. In cases where the replacement part must be returned to HP, you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally fifteen (15) days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping material. Failure to return the defective product may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to be used. If customer self repair applies to you, refer to your specific HP Hardware Product announcement. You can also obtain information on this warranty service on the HP Web site at: www.hp.com/support

Important Safety Instructions

CAUTION: Read and follow these precautions and all other instructions in this manual to reduce the

risk of injury and equipment damage.

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions.

3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions.

5. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

1 1. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12.

CAUTION: Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by

the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15.

CAUTION: To avoid personal injury or damag e to the television, always use at least two

people to lift or move it.

16. If the television is moved from a cold area, do not turn the television on for a few hours. This will allow the unit to warm sufficiently to evaporate any condensation.

17. Install the television upright on a horizontal, solid, flat surface away from excessive heat, dust, and vibration.

18. Keep a clearance of at least 4 inches (10 cm) between the vents on the back and/or sides of the televisio n and nearby walls or enclosures. Allow free air circulation to prevent excessive heat build up that could cause the set to shut down or damage the television. Keep flammable objects susceptible to heat damage at least 2 feet (0.5 m) away from the television’s vents.

19. Do not allow food, small objects, or liquid to get inside the television. If this should occur, contact HP for assistance. There are no user-serviceable parts inside except as described elsewhere in this manual.

20. Operate only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your television dealer or local power company.

21. Do not handle the power cord with wet hands. Doing so may cause electric shock.

22. Do not place hands, face, or other objects near the ventilation holes of the television. Because the ventilation holes release heat, doing so could result in damage to the television or personal injury.

23.

CAUTION: Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, hardware, or table as

specified by HP. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the television to avoid injury from tipping over. USE WITH AN UNAPPROVED CART, STAND, BRACKET, HARDWARE, OR T ABLE MAY RESULT IN INSTABILITY AND POSSIBLE INJURY.

24.

WARNING! To prevent electrical shock or injury, do not remove cover except in accordance

with the instructions provided in Section 5 of “Fixing Problems” on page 41 of this User's Guide when replacing the lamp module. Because there are no user serviceable parts inside this television other than the lamp module, any servicing other than replacement of the lamp module should be referred to qualified service personnel only. Under no circumstances should anyone other than a qualified service technician attempt to remove the cover of this television or service it except to replace the lamp module in accordance with the instructions provided in this User's Guide.

25. Servicing is required if the television has been damaged in any way, such as if the power cord or power plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the television, or the television has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

xii

26.

WARNING! LED BASED TELEVISION: AT NO TIME SHOULD THIS TELEVISION EVER

BE OPERATED WHILE DISASSEMBLED IN ANY MANNER. THIS TELEVISION USES LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LEDs) AS A LIGHT SOURCE, WHICH PRODUCE EXTREMELY INTENSE LIGHT. EXPOSURE TO THE LIGHT PRODUCED BY THESE LEDs WITHOUT PROPER EYE PROTECTION MAY RESULT IN SEVERE AND PERMANENT EYE DAMAGE.

27. If any of the following conditions occur, immediately unplug the television from the wall outlet and contact a qualified service technician to repair:

a. If the power cord or plug becomes damaged or frayed, do not attempt to unplug — locate the

appropriate circuit breaker and disable the outlet;

b. If the television has been exposed to rain, water, or other liquid; c. If the television does not operate normally when operated as instructed in the operating instructions,

adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions – improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage to the television that could require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore to the television to normal operation;

d. If the television has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged; e. If the television exhibits a distinct change in performance – this usually indicates that service is

required.

28. Should repair become necessary, advise the service technician servicing your television to use parts specified by the manufacturer. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electrical shock, or other hazards.

29.

WARNING! KEEP SMALL PARTS AND OTHER OBJECTS OUT OF THE REACH OF

SMALL CHILDREN. THESE OBJECTS CAN BE ACCIDENTALLY SWALLOWED AND RESULT IN CHOKING, SUFFOCATION, OTHER INJURIES AND POSSIBLY DEATH. ADDITIONALLY KEEP ALL PACKAGING MATERIALS OUT THE REACH OF SMALL CHILDREN. THESE ITEMS MAY PRESENT A SUFFOCATION HAZARD AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEAT H

30.

WARNING! Keep all packaging materials out of the reach of small children. These items

may cause choking, suffocation, other serious injury, and possibly death.

31. CAUTION: Do not disconnect power until the television has cooled and the fan stops running – up to three minutes after turning it off. Otherwise, you might shorten the life of the lamp.

32. CAUTION: If power is removed from the television, wait more than two minutes before attempting to turn on the television. Otherwise, you might shorten the life of the lamp.

xiii

33.

CAUTION: Replacing the lamp module requires special considerations:

•Carefully read the complete instructions for “Replacing the Lamp Module” on page 41 before replacing the lamp module.

•To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme care when removing the lamp module, because broken glass might be present.

•The lamp contains a small amount of mercury. If the lamp breaks, adequately ventilate the area where the breakage occurred, discard any nearby food and drink, and thoroughly clean the table surface around the television. Wash your hands after cleaning the area or handling a broken lamp. Disposal of this lamp might be regulated because of environmental considerations.

34. CAUTION: We recommend that the lamp be exchanged at or before the end of the lamp's

rated life – 6000 hours of use – because after that, the risk of the lamp rupturing could increase. High-temperature glass fragments from a ruptured bulb can cause injury, fire, or damage to property.

In addition to these general precautions, be sure to observe the following precautions when using external television antennas and cable systems with your new television. Failure to observe these precautions could result in fire, bodily injury, and damage to your television.

• Call the CATV (cable television) system installer’s attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC (U.S. National

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70), or Canadian Electrical Code (CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 1), which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground must be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

• If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the television, be sure the antenna or cable system is

electrically grounded to protect against voltage surges and built up static charges. Article 810 of the NEC (U.S. National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70) or Canadian Electrical Code (CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 1) provides information about proper electrical grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the “lead-in” wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of the antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.

• Do not place an outside antenna in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits,

or where it could fall on power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, take extreme care to avoid touching overhead power lines that may be present at your location.

1 Setting Up the Television

What’s in the Box?

Before setting up your television, make sure your shipping carton includes the following items. If any are missing, contact HP.

•Television

• Remote Control with two AAA batteries

• Quick Setup Guide

• User’s Guide (this manual)

NOTE: The television does not include audio/video cables, because most external equi pment includes the

required cables. Cables are also available from HP and at most electronics stores.

Unpackaging and Carrying the Television

CAUTION: To avoid injury or damage to the television, use at least two people to lift or move the

television. Lift with your legs, not with your back.

NOTE: To lift your new high-definition television, place one hand above the vent on the side panel, and hold the

top front corner with the other hand.

WARNING! Keep all packaging materials out of the reach of small children. These items may cause

choking, suffocation, other serious injury or possibly death.

Features

Your new high-definition television from HP comes equipped with many features, including the new Photo Viewer. Photo Viewer enables you to view individual photos on your television, have a slideshow of your photos, and even print your photos through the television.

This manual illustrates the television’s features, and also its connector types. If you require further assistance with connections, please contact HP.

NOTE: You must use a printer with PictBridge™ technology to print photos using the television.

Setting Up the Television 1

Accessories

Increase your enjoyment of your new television with genuine HP accessories. You can purchase accessories at www.hpshopping.com, or through your television retailer.

• HP television stand — Sets the television at an ideal viewing height,

manages cables, and houses other home entertainment equipment. The

HP television stand is included with select models, and setup information

is provided in the stand’s packaging material.

• HP replacement lamp (ID5220 DLP™) — Installs easily and brings your

television up to factory-fresh brightness.

• CableCARD™ module — Lets you add a CableCARD to your television,

which simplifies television operation and eliminates the need for a

separate cable box.

Setting Up Your Television — The Basics

Planning Your Layout

Consider the following suggestions when planning your room layout:

• The best viewing distance is roughly 9 to 25 ft (3 to 8 m), but personal preferences vary widely.

For lengthy viewing of standard-definition television channels, the upper end of this range might be more

comfortable.

• For the most comfortable viewing, measure seating distance from the center of the television.

• Design your layout so you can control the ambient light. Many people prefer viewing with minimal lighting, but

you should avoid shining bright light directly onto the screen.

• The television can work with a wide variety of input devices — television antenna, cable service, DVD player,

audio/video receiver, VCR, personal digital video recorder (DVR), video gaming device, and satellite receiver.

• Try to locate the television’s input devices to minimize the lengths of cables connecting them to the television.

Use an HP television stand or other quality stand to keep equipment close to the television. If any cable is

longer than 10 ft (3 m), consider replacing it with a high-quality, low-loss cable for best video and audio

quality.

• For the ultimate home-theater experience, consider including a 5.1 surround sound system, such as a Dolby

Digital™ system. This system consists of five speakers and a sub woofer.

• For an external sound system, place all front speakers approximately the same distance from the listener.

Place the subwoofer near a wall or corner, and place surround speakers at least as high as the listener’s

head.

CAUTION: Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, hardware, or table as

specified by HP. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the television to avoid injury from tipping over. USE WITH AN UNAPPROVED CART, STAND, BRACKET, HARDWARE, OR TABLE MAY RESULT IN INSTABILITY AND POSSIBLE INJURY.

CAUTION: Keep a clearance of at least 4 in (10 cm) between the vents on the back of the television and ne arby

walls or enclosures. Allow free air circulation to prevent excessive heat build-up that could cause shutdown or damage the television. Cooling vents are located on the bottom of the television. DO NOT place the television on a carpet or other soft surface. Keep flammable objects or objects subject to heat damage at least 2 ft (0.5 m) away from the vents.

2 Setting Up the Television

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

1. On the back of the remote control, press the latch on the battery cover and lift off the cover.

2. Insert two AAA batteries (observe the + marks on the batteries).

3. Insert the tab on the battery cover into the case, and then snap the

cover into place.

Using a CableCARD Module

What is a CableCARD Module?

The CableCARD feature built into your new HP HDTV provides a point of access for cable services in your area without the need for a set-top cable box (STB).

The CableCARD feature allows you to decrypt digital cable and use higher-quality components to handle scaling and display of cable channels.

By installing a CableCARD module in your television, you can enjoy features normally provided by a set-top cable box without connecting a cable box or operating another piece of equipment.

The availability, setup, and pricing of CableCARD service is determined by your local cable provider, not by HP. Contact your cable provider for information about this service in your area.

NOTE: Current CableCARD technology does not support interactive features such as video-on-demand that

require two-way communication. Such features (if available in your area) require a set-top cable box. Contact your cable provider for information about advanced features they may offer in your area.

CAUTION: The CableCARD module is extremely sensitive to static electricity and can be permanently damaged by

it. Handle the module only by the front plate. Before inserting the module into the television, discharge your body’s static electricity by touching one of the video or audio connectors on the television panel.

18 Setting Up the Television

Installing a CableCARD Module

You must obtain the CableCARD module from your local cable provider. After installing the card, follow any setup instructions provided with the card.

The following figure shows a typical CableCARD module, and is for illustration only.

1. Turn off the television. The CableCARD slot can be found in the back of the television.

2. Gently push the card into the slot until it stops. When fully inserted, the card will stick out slightly. Do not attempt to force the card into the television!

3. Press Menu. Press the left or right arrow buttons to go to Source > Cable card, and press OK. Your cable provider uses the information in the CableCARD screens to activate and configure the CableCARD service.

4. To remove the CableCARD module, first turn off the television, and then pull the card out of the slot. The CableCARD functions are then removed automatically.

Turning the Television On and Off

Plugging in the Power Cord

• Plug the power cord into a polarized outlet.

CAUTION: Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug attached to the television. A

polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. The wide blade is provided for your safety. If the polarized plug does not fit into your existing outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet with a polarized outlet.

Troubleshooting Problems

Problem

The printer outputs a blank sheet of paper.

The television reports ‘No printer available’ when you initiate a print job.

No images are shown when a memory card has been inserted.

Some thumbnail images are missing when you print an index page.

Some of the images on the memory card show up as 'invalid'.

You rotate an image and then remove the memory card. The next time the card is inserted, the rotation information has been lost.

Possible Cause: There is a mismatch between the paper size selected and the paper in the printer.

Solution: Restart the print job and specify a paper size that matches the paper loaded in the printer.

Possible Cause: You have selected a print size larger than the current paper size.

Solution: Restart the print job and specify a print size that can fit on the paper loaded in the printer.

Possible Cause: A printer is not connected to the television. Solution: Connect a printer to the television and try again.

Possible Cause: A printer is connected, but the printer is not powered on. Solution: Power on the printer and try again.

Possible Cause: There was a communications problem between the television

and the printer. Solution: Disconnect the printer from the television and wait 15 seconds. Then

reconnect the printer to the television. Try printing again. Possible Cause: The memory card has not been fully inserted into the card

reader slot. Solution: Verify that the card is completely inserted in the card reader slot. Pull

out the memory card and insert it again. Possible Cause: You have used an external image manipulation program to

adjust some of the images and the image manipulation tool created a nonstandard embedded thumbnail, which could not be handled by the printer.

Solution: Print an index page using the original, un-altered images. Possible Cause: The images are not baseline encoded, RGB JPEG images. Solution: None. The television only supports JPEG images which use the RGB

colorspace and baseline encoding. Possible Cause: The memory card was write-protected, so the rotation

information could not be saved. Solution: On the memory card, change the write-protection feature so that you

can write to the memory card and try again. Possible Cause: The memory card is full, so there is no room to save the rotation

information. (If the memory card is full, a card warning icon appears on the screen.)

Solution: Using the camera, remove unwanted pictures, freeing up space on the memory card.

Using the Photo Viewer 27

Problem

You mark images for printing and remove the memory card. The next time the card is inserted, the printing information has been lost.

A really large image is shown as an 'invalid' image.

Possible Cause: The memory card was write-protected, so the rotation information could not be saved.

Solution: On the memory card, change the write-protection feature so that you can write to the camera card and try again.

Possible Cause: The memory card is full, so there is no room to save the rotation information. (If the memory card is full, a card warning icon appears on the screen.)

Solution: Using the camera, remove unwanted pictures, freeing up space on the memory card.

Possible Causes: The image is too wide. Photo Viewer only supports images up to 10,000 pixels wide

Solution: Reduce the width of the image using your camera or an editing program and try again.

5 Fixing Problems

Maintaining the Television

The television is designed to require very little maintenance. For best performance, keep the television clean, and replace the lamp module after 6000 hours of service.

Cleaning the Television

Keep the television clean as follows:

• Keep the television in an area free from excessive dust and dirt. You cannot clean any of the television’s internal surfaces.

• Wipe the screen and case with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water, polish, solvent, or other substances.

• Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the air vents on the back and sides of the television. Do this at least yearly, or more often if there is visible accumulation.

Forgotten Passwords

If you have parental controls set on your television and forget your password, turn off the television. Then press the following sequence of six buttons on the remote control: Menu, 000, OK, power. This allows access to the Lock menu without entering a password, but only until you turn off the television. You must create a new password before you can change lock settings or view blocked programs.

Replacing the Lamp Module

As the television operates over time, its lamp module gradually becomes less bright and more susceptible to breakage. You can install a new lamp modul e anyt i me to bring the television up to factory-fresh brightness. We recommend replacing the lamp module after approximately 6000 hours of service.

HP replacement lamp: RF873AA#ABA

CAUTION: We recommend that the lamp be exchanged at or before the end of the lamp’s rated life

— 6000 hours of use — because after that, the risk of the lamp rupturing could increase. High-temperature glass fragments from a ruptured bulb can cause injury, fire, or damage to property.

CAUTION: Replacing the lamp module requires special considerations:

• Carefully read the complete instructions for “Replacing the Lamp Module” in this Section 5 before replacing the lamp module.

• To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme care when removing the lamp module, because broken glass might be present.

• The lamp contains a small amount of mercury.
