Cleaning Procedure
(When no good, progress to next step.)
1. Clean surface of optical parts using air spray.
2. Wipe the dry cleaning with wiping cloth and the wiper.
3. Soak a few medicines in the cloth as follows and wipe up them lightly. After that, always wipe the dry cleaning
cloth.
Disassembly Cleaning
Disassembly cleaning method should only be performed when the unit is considerable dirty and cannot be sufficient-
ly cleaned by air spraying alone.
Be sure to readjust the optical system after performing disassembly cleaning.
The surface of the optical components consists of multiple dielectric layers with varying degrees of refraction.
Never use organic solvents (thinner, etc.) or any kind of cleanser on these components.
Since the LCD panel is equipped with an electronic circuit, never use any liquid (water,etc.) to clean the unit.
Use of liquid may cause the unit to malfunction.
After long periods of use, dust and other particles will accumulate on the LCD panel, prism, mirror, polarized glass,
lens, etc., causing the picture to darken or color to blur. If this occurs,clean inside of the optical unit.
Remove dust or other particles using air spray. If dirt cannot be removed by air spray, disassemble and clean the opti-
cal unit.
Caution:
Use a commercial (inert gas) air spray designed for cleaning camera and computer equipment.
Use a resin-based nozzle only. Be very careful not to damage optical parts with the nozzle tip. Never use any kind
of cleanser on the unit. Also, never use abrasive materials on the unit as this may cause irreparable damage.
Optical parts care and cleaning
Screen handling precaution;
1. Wear gloves when handling the screen to prevent fingerprints (also, protection of hand).
2. Do not use force when handling the screen so that edges will not brake or crack.
3. Be careful in handling at the process of disassemblies, because scratch or scrub wound makes transparency
decrease easily.
4. Keep the screen in a dust free environment, because dust may accumurate on the screen by static electricity.
5. Do not stand a screen obliquely for long time.
6. Use thinned synthetic detergent for cleaning, because of the weakness against solvent. Wipe gently with soft
cloth.
7. The screen has laminated Lenticular lens and the Fresnel lens. As scrubbed wound on lens is occured by vibra-
tion, so avoid too much vibration after lamination of Lenticular lens and Fresnel lens.

This LCD Projection TV uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully and properly. Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment of use. There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
If the LCD Projection TV indicates that the lamp should be replaced, i.e., if the LAMP REPLACE indicator lights up, replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the LCD Projection TV has cooled down. ( Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.) Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ according to the environment or conditions in which the LCD Projection TV and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN.
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the LCD Projection TV’s AC plug from the AC outlet immediately. Contact an author­ized service station for a checkup of the unit and replacement of the lamp. Additionally, check carefully to ensure that there are no broken shards or pieces of glass around the LCD Projection TV or coming out from the cooling air circu­lation holes. Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully. No one should check the inside of the LCD Projection TV except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with LCD Projection TV serv­ice. Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass.
