Maintenance and Troubleshooting Read this chapter to learn how to maintain and troubleshoot your Micro Chip Display Projection TV.
Cleaning and Maintenance Cleaning the Screen Do not use substances such as glass cleaners, solvents, and thinners. The screen of your RPTV has been specially treated. Wipe the surface gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. If the surface is particular dirty, use a soft cloth and water to clean the screen. Squirt a little water on the cloth (never directly on the screen), then wipe the screen with the cloth.
Replacing the Filter There is a replaceable filter in the back of your Micro Chip Display Projection TV. The filter prevents dust build-up and assures good ventilation for the lamp. Warning Do not operate your Micro Chip Display Projection TV without a filter. Check the filter every six months and replace as necessary to prevent heat damage. To replace the filter : 1 Remove the two filter access panel screws, then remove the access panel.
Replacing the Lamp You should replace the lamp in the RPTV approximately every 6000 hours to maintain the best possible display image. Do not use a lamp past the rated lamp life. Warning The high-pressure lamp may explode if handled incorrectly. Make sure that your Micro Chip Display Projection TV is turned off, power is disconnected, and the lamp is completely cool (minimum of 45 minutes) before replacing the lamp. To replace the lamp : 1 Turn off your Micro Chip Display Projection TV.
6 Use the lamp removal handle to lift the lamp module straight out of the lamp bay. 7 Replace the lamp in the lamp module, then insert the lamp module back into the lamp bay. Caution Make sure that you do not touch the lamp. The oils from your hands can cause the lamp to fail prematurely. 8 Replace the two lamp module retaining screws. Important Make sure that the screws are fastened securely to make sure that the lamp will not shake. Safety discard the used lamp.
Status LEDs There are two status LEDs on the front of your Micro Chip Display Projection TV. Normal Operation State Power LED Lamp LED Description AC off Not lit Not lit AC power not connected Standby mode Orange Not lit AC power is connected and your RPTV is in standby mode. Warm-up Blue Orange Flashing AC power is connected and the power button has just been turned on. Cool down Orange Operation mode Blue Orange Flashing Powering off.
Troubleshooting Use the following information to solve common problems. You cannot see a picture Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a grounded electrical outlet. Make sure that the power button is turned on. Look in the left air vent to see if the lamp is on. Make sure that the selected input source is connected to a working input source. If your RPTV is connected to your computer in RGB mode, press any key on your keyboard to “wake” your computer.
You can see a picture but you cannot hear sound Make sure that the volume is not turned down. Make sure that the sound is not muted. Make sure that the internal speakers are turned on. Make sure that your audio input source cables are connected securely and correctly. The monitor has pixels that are always dark Your RPTV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology. However, sometimes some pixels of your RPTV may not display.
