Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp, which illuminates the picture, has a limited life.
If the screen becomes dark, the color looks unusual, or the LAMP indicator 
on the front of the LCD projection TV flashes, it is time to replace the lamp 
with a new one (not supplied).
Use a Sony XL-2100U or XL-2100 (for WE655 series), or XL-2200 
(for WF655 series) replacement lamp (not supplied) for replacement. 
Use of any other lamp may damage the LCD projection TV.
Do not remove the lamp for any purpose other than replacement. Doing 
so may cause injury or fire.
Before replacing the lamp, turn the power off on the main unit. Wait 
several minutes, then unplug the power cord. (The cooling fan will 
continue to blow for about two minutes after turning the power off.)
Allow the lamp to cool down completely before removing it. The 
surface of the lamp remains extremely hot for at least 30 minutes after 
the power has been turned off.
Do not put flammable materials and metal objects inside the lamp 
receptacle of the LCD projection TV after removing the lamp. Doing so 
may cause fire or electrical shock. 
To avoid being burned, do not touch the lamp receptacle once the lamp 
has been removed.
Mount the new lamp securely. Failure to do so may cause a fire or the 
screen to go dark.
Do not touch the glass of the new lamp with your fingers.
