the TV near the lamp are extremely hot.
TOUCH THE LAMP CARTRIDGE BY THE HANDLE ONLY

Lamp
The light source for this television is a lamp, which is part of a lamp cartridge assembly. The life of the lamp can vary,
based on the lamp itself, the air temperature around the TV while it is operating, and your viewing patterns. Warmer air
or poor ventilation shorten the lamp life, as does turning the television on and off frequently. Mitsubishi warrants the
lamp for one (1) year from the date of original TV purchase at retail.

Appendix C: Lamp Cartridge Replacement
WARNING
• Do not remove the lamp cartridge immediately after turning off the television. You may get burned because the
lamp is very hot. Allow the television to cool for at least one hour before replacing the lamp cartridge.
• Do not remove the lamp cartridge except when replacing it. Careless treatment can result in injury or fire.
• Do not touch the lamp glass element. It may be very hot and break, causing injuries or burns.
• Be sure not to insert any metal or flammable object into the lamp cartridge opening, as it may cause fire or electri-
cal shock. If a foreign object is inserted into the opening, unplug the AC cord of the TV and contact your dealer for
service.
• Install the lamp cartridge securely. Failure to do so may cause a fire.
• Do not touch the lamp glass elements. Oils from your fingers may cause premature lamp failure.
