How to replace the lamp unit (cont.)
5. Grasp the lamp unit handle and gently pull the lamp unit straight out
of the TV. Set the old lamp unit aside (see "Lamp unit disposal" on
page 62).
6. Carefully insert the new lamp unit straight into the TV until it is fully
seated. The lamp unit is fully seated when the two plastic "nubs" on
the TV cabinet are flush with the two holes in the lamp unit (above
and below the lamp unit screw hole; see illustration below).

Note:
• Never subject the lamp unit to excessive shock.
• Never touch the lamp unit glass or otherwise get it dirty.
Doing so may affect the image quality and reduce the service life of
the lamp. See "Cleaning the lamp unit glass" at right.
7. Using a manual flathead screwdriver, replace the lamp unit screw.
Note: Hand-tighten only. Do not use an electric screwdriver.

may be shortened.

Cleaning the lamp unit glass
If you accidentally touch the lamp unit glass
or otherwise get it dirty, wipe it with a lint-
free lens cleaning cloth (such as a cloth for
cleaning camera lenses or eyeglasses).
CAUTION: NEVER clean a hot
lamp with any type of flamma-
ble liquid or aerosol cleaning agent.
Many ordinary cleaning agents (such as
glass cleaners) contain chemicals that
may be flammable at certain tempera-
tures. If the lamp unit is not allowed to
cool for at least one (1) hour, such chemi-
cals may ignite.
