• Do not operate the TV in an area with high temperatures or humidity, or where large amounts of dust are present.
• Leave at least 12 inches (30 cm) of room around the vents on the sides of the TV and do not block the vents. They provide ventilation and prevent the TV from overheating.
• Do not use the TV in temperatures outside of the range of 41 to 95^ (5 to 35^ ).
• Do not store the TV in temperatures outside the range of 14 to 140^ (-10 to 60^) .
• If you place the TV in a permanent installation near a wall, secure the TV to the wall using screws and steel wire connected to the two screw holes on the top rear of the TV.

Plugging the TV Into a Power Source

• Use only the type of power source indicated on the TV. If you are not sure of the power available, consult your dealer or power company.
• Place the TV near a wall outlet where the power cord can be easily unplugged.
• Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles. This can cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug (two blades, with one wider than the other). Connect the plug only to a compatible outlet where you can fully insert the plug to prevent exposure of the plug blades. If you are unable to insert the plug fully, try reversing the plug. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the outlet.
• Do not place the TV where the power cord can be walked on. This may result in fraying or damage to the plug.
  • Take the following precautions when plugging in the TV. Failure to comply with these precautions could result in sparks, fire, or electric shock: Do not insert the plug into an outlet with dust present. Do not insert the plug with wet hands. Insert the plug firmly into the outlet.
• Unplug the TV during lightning storms or when it will not be used for extended periods.
• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet before cleaning.
• Pull on the plug housing to unplug the power cord; do not pull on the cord.

Operating the TV Safely

• Except as specifically explained in this User's Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltages or other hazards.

• Unplug the TV from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel under the following conditions:

• When the power cord is damaged or frayed, or if it becomes hot.

• When liquid has been spilled into the TV or if it has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the TV does not operate normally when you follow the operating instructions, or if it exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for service.

• If the TV has been dropped or the housing has been damaged.

• Do not stand on the TV or place heavy objects on top of it.

• Do not block the slots and openings in the TV case.
• Never push objects of any kind through the cabinet slots.
• Never insert an object other than a digital photo card in the card slots, or an object other than paper or an ink cassette into the printer. Do not use sharp tools to remove a card from a slot or you may damage the slot and card.
• Use only the ink cassette and paper specified for use in the EPSON Livingstation printer (part number ELSPP50).
• Never spill liquid of any kind into the TV.
• Do not move or lift the TV by moving or lifting the stand or table supporting it; the TV may fall and cause injury.

Replacing the Projection Lamp Safely

• Never touch the projection lamp immediately after turning off the TV or you could be burned. Wait at least 30 minutes after turning off the TV to let the lamp cool down completely.
• If the lamp has broken, handle the shards carefully to avoid injury.
• The used lamp contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations regarding disposal or recycling. Do not put the lamp in the trash.
• Install the new lamp securely to avoid an electrical short or other damage. Insert the lamp as described on page 101, pushing it all the way into its slot. Tighten the screws to lock the lamp securely into place or the lamp will not come on.
• Do not touch the glass on the lamp with your bare hands. This can shorten the lamp life and obscure the projected image. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.
• Do not drop the replacement lamp or bump it against any surface; the lamp could be permanently damaged.

Outdoor Antenna Installation and Grounding

- It is best to have a professional technician install an antenna on the roof of a structure. If you install an antenna yourself, be careful to avoid serious injury.

- If an outside antenna is connected through other equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. In the U.S.A., section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrode, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Example of Antenna Grounding in National Electrical Code Instructions

Ground clamp Antenna lead in wire Antenna discharge unit (NEC Section 810-20) Grounding conductors (NEC Section 810-21) Power service grounding electrode system (NEC ART 250, Part H)

- An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines/electric lights or power circuits, or where it can fall onto such power lines or circuits. When installing an outdoor antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep it from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

- For added protection during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna. This will prevent damage due to lightning and power-line surges.

Placement for Optimum Viewing

Your TV's screen is designed to give you great picture quality over a wide viewing angle. For optimum viewing, place the TV so you can view it as shown below.

6-10 ft. 65° 65°

Sit about 6 to 10 feet away from the TV, and within 65^ to the left or right.

Also make sure the stand or other support you're using places the TV within 30^ above and below your viewing height as measured from your eyes to the center of the screen.

Suggested Supports or Stands

You can use an optional EPSON TV stand to support your TV. Order part number LS47STD (for the LS47P1) or LS57STD (for the LS57P1) from your dealer.

Selecting the Screen Display Size

Most TV and video signals determine the size of the image on your screen. You can change the size (called the aspect ratio) by pressing the Aspect button on the remote control. Depending on your signal and input device, you may not be able to change the aspect ratio or be offered all of the selections listed here.

Press the Aspect button repeatedly to select any one of the screen sizes shown below. The name of the aspect ratio appears in the upper left corner.

Normal is the default size of your video source, if it is in standard 4:3 broadcast ratio.

Full stretches a standard 4:3 ratio image to fit into your 16:9 ratio screen, stretching equally on all sides.

Wide stretches a standard 4:3 ratio image to fit into your 16:9 ratio screen, but the image size stretches increasingly more from the center to the sides.

Zoom enlarges the entire screen and cuts off some of the top and bottom for a closer view. Use Zoom when you're watching movies broadcast in Letterbox format so they fit your screen.

Auto lets the TV select a suitable aspect ratio based on the signal it receives. If it can't detect an aspect ratio from the signal, it uses the ratio selected as the Auto Aspect setting in the menu system. See page 63 for details.

Using Channel Zapping

Channel zapping lets you get a quick look at programs broadcast on up to seven additional channels while you're watching a TV program on an eighth channel. If you see a different channel that you want to watch, you can make it your main program.

Note

You also need to turn off the V-Chip feature to use channel zapping. See page 45 for instructions.

To use channel zapping, you must be using the jumper cable that connects the ANT 2 and RF Output ports. This cable was installed on your TV at the factory. You must also turn off the ANT 2 port using the menus, as described below. This frees the necessary tuner.

Turning Off the ANT 2 Port

1 Make sure the jumper cable connecting the ANT 2 and RF Output ports is still installed on the back of your TV.

2 Press the Menu button on the TV panel or remote control. You see the Video menu.

Zapping Channels

The first channel you select in channel zapping is the main channel. You'll only be able to hear the audio from this channel, so select the channel you'd like to listen to first.

1 Press the POP button on the remote control. You see the POP (Picture-Outside-Picture) screen display (two images at once).
2 Press the POP button again.

You see the channel zapping window with your main channel on the left. The next 4 and previous 2 channels gradually fill windows on the right side of the screen with a frozen image from each channel. The main zapped channel is outlined in red at the top.

Automatically Shutting Off the TV

You can set up the TV to shut off automatically in case you fall asleep or want to control how much viewing is allowed. You can set the TV to go into “sleep” mode after 30, 60, or 90 minutes or you can set it to turn off automatically after 30 minutes if it receives no signal input.

Putting the TV Into Sleep Mode

1 Press the Sleep button on the remote control. SLEEP OFF appears in the upper left corner of the screen.
2 Press the Sleep button again to select one of the following options:

3 To check how much time is left before the TV enters sleep mode, press the Sleep button. If less than 3 minutes are left, the time display remains on the screen. Press Sleep again if you want to change the sleep time or turn off sleep mode.
4 After the selected time has elapsed, the TV screen goes blank and the Power light flashes orange. When the Power light stays lit orange, the TV is in sleep mode.

To turn the TV back on, press the Power button on the TV panel or remote control.

Setting Up Auto Shutdown

1 Press the Menu button on the TV panel or the remote control.
2 To highlight the Setting menu tab, press Next >.

Controlling Other Equipment with the Remote Control

You can use the TV's remote control to select functions on your other home theater equipment, such as your DVD player, VCR, or satellite receiver. That way, you can use just one remote to control your movies or TV programs.

First you must program your remote control so it knows what kind of equipment you're using. You do this by entering a code that corresponds to the equipment and its manufacturer.

Programming the Remote Control

1 Look up the three-digit code for your equipment and manufacturer in the tables beginning on page 72.
2 Slide the switch on the top of the remote control to the setting for your equipment type. For example, to enter the DVD player code, slide the switch to the DVD setting.
3 Hold down the Menu button on the remote control until its light comes on (about 2 to 3 seconds).
4 Enter the three-digit code using the remote control number buttons (for example, 420). The remote control beeps once.

If it beeps 3 times, you've entered an invalid code. Repeat steps 3 and 4 using the correct code.

Note

If there are multiple codes listed for your equipment manufacturer and the first one you choose doesn't work, try another code.

When your remote control batteries wear out, you'll need to program the remote control again.

Using the Programmed Remote Control with Your Other Equipment

Once you've programmed the remote control, follow these steps to use it to control your other equipment:

1 Slide the switch at the top of the remote control to the type of equipment you want to control, such as DVD.
2 Use the 8 buttons on the top of the remote control to play and stop movies, skip and pause tracks, etc.

Viewing, Printing, and Saving Photos

You can use the digital photo card slots and printer built into your TV, and on the external CD-R/RW drive, to view, print, and save digital photos, as described in these sections:

• "Viewing Photos on a Digital Photo Card or CD" below
• "Freezing an Image for Printing" on page 86
• "Printing Photos" on page 89
• "Saving Photos to CD" on page 95

Viewing Photos on a Digital Photo Card or CD

You can view photos on your TV screen from a compatible digital photo card or a CD. You can also enlarge and rotate your photos and view them in a slide show.

• "Inserting a Photo Card" below
• "Inserting a CD" on page 80
• “Enlarging and Rotating the Photos” on page 83
  • "Viewing a Slide Show" on page 84

Inserting a Photo Card

Make sure your photo card uses the file structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the Photo viewer can display your photos. Your photo card must contain folders and files using the following structure and format:

• The folder structure must be:

root/DCIM/ or root/DCIM/123abcde

graph TD
    A["DCIM"] --> B["100epson"]
    B --> C["epsn1001.jpg"]
    B --> D["epsn1001.jpg"]

Where root is the root directory with a DCIM folder beneath it. Your photos may be in the DCIM directory or in a folder beneath it. Any folders beneath the DCIM folder must be no more than 8 characters long, usually three numbers followed by up to 5 alphabetic characters, such as 100cpson. Most digital cameras automatically format the files this way, but if you copy photos to the photo card using another device, you may need to set up this structure yourself.

- The photo files must be in JPEG format and named:

abcd1234.jpg

Where abcd1234 is a file name 8 characters long, beginning with 4 letters and ending with 4 numbers higher than 0000, such as in epsn1001.jpg.

Note

Your TV can view photos in JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) format on cards that are DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) version 1.0 compliant.

You cannot insert a

Microdrive™ disc in your TV.

Note

The Photo viewer cannot display, enlarge, or print TIF images. You see only the icon on the viewer screens for TIF images. You can write TIF images to a CD-R/RW and view them on your computer, however.

Caution

Don't remove a card from the slot when the Card light is flashing or you may damage the card. Wait until the Card light shines green to remove the card.

• The photo files must contain a time stamp, so the slide show can display the files in time stamp order.
• The photo files should contain thumbnail data, such as that included in Exif format JPEG files, to speed up display of the files in the Photo viewer.

1 Make sure the TV is turned on and the Power light is green and not flashing. Also make sure the Card and Printer lights are off.

2 Insert your photo card in the appropriate slot on the TV's front panel as shown on the next page. The Card light flashes orange as the TV reads the data on the card.

4 If you inserted more than one photo card, the photos on the card you inserted first appear on the screen.

To switch to the photos on another card, press the 1 button. (Or press Menu, press Select ▼ or Select ▲ to highlight Photo Source, then press Enter.)

The Photo Source menu on the left is opened. Press Select ▼ or Select ▲ to highlight the card you want to view and press Enter.

5 Follow the instructions in these sections to view or print your photos:

• "Enlarging and Rotating the Photos" on page 83
• "Viewing a Slide Show" on page 84
• "Printing Photos" on page 89

6 To exit the Photo viewer, press the 5 button or press Menu, highlight Exit viewer, and press Enter.

7 Wait for the Card light to shine green, then pull out your digital photo card(s).

Note

You can select the menus on the left of the screen by pressing the Menu button, highlighting the menu, and pressing Enter. You can also select them by pressing the number button for the menu, such as 1 for the Photo Source menu or 2 for the Slide Show menu.

Inserting a CD

Before you view photos on a CD, make sure you've connected the external CD-R/RW drive that came with your TV. See page 31 for instructions.

If you create a CD-R/RW of your photos using a computer, make sure that you use the file structure and naming conventions defined in the DCF standard so the Photo viewer can display your photos. Your CD-R/RW must contain folders and files using the following structure and format:

Note

The Photo viewer cannot display, enlarge, or print TIF images. You see only the icon on the viewer screens for TIF images. You can write TIF images to a CD-R/RW and view them on your computer, however.

Do not write photos to a CD-R/RW disc that was previously written to by a computer. You can view and print photos from these discs, but you cannot write new photos to them using your TV. This is because your TV and computer use different methods for writing files. When you want to write photos to a CD-R/RW, use a new, blank disc.

• The folder structure must be:

root/nnnnnnnn

graph TD
    A["pictures"] --> B["vacation"]
    B --> C["photo001.jpg"]
    B --> D["photo001.jpg"]

Where root is the root directory

and nnnnnnnnn is a folder up to 8 characters long beneath the root directory, such as /pictures. Any folders beneath the first level folder must also be no more than 8 characters long.

• The photo files must be named:

nnnnnnnn.jpg

Where nnnnnnnnn is a file name up to 8 characters long (consisting of alphabetic characters and the \~ and _ symbols), such as photo001.jpg. The file must be JPEG format.

• The photo files must contain a time stamp, so the slide show can display the files in time stamp order.
• The photo files should contain thumbnail data, such as that included in Exif format JPEG files, to speed up display of the files in the Photo viewer.

Follow these steps to insert a CD-R/RW in your external CD-R/RW drive:

1 Make sure the TV is turned on and the Power light is green and not flashing.
2 Press the eject button on the drive to open the tray.

3 Place your CD-R/RW on the tray with the label side facing up. Make sure the disc lays flat in the tray.

Note

For most video images, freezing the display in the standard mode is sufficient. However, if you're freezing an image with text (such as a recipe) or freezing an image from a DVD player that uses progressive output, you may get better results by changing the capture mode. See page 88 for instructions.

Note

Make sure you have paper loaded in the printer. For instructions, see page 89.

Saving Photos to CD

Before you save photos on a CD, make sure you've connected the external CD-R/RW drive that came with your TV. See page 31 for instructions. Also make sure you've connected the drive's power cable to the drive and to an electrical outlet and turned on the drive.

Make sure that your disc can be written to at 4X speed. Some high-speed discs don't support 4X writing, so check your disc specifications before inserting it into the drive.

Follow the instructions in "Inserting a Photo Card" on page 77 to insert your digital photo card and open the Photo viewer. Then follow the steps in the next section to insert a CD-R/RW in the drive and write the photos to it.

Note

You can't write photos to a CD-R/RW while viewing photos on a CD-R/RW.

Do not write photos to a CD-R/RW disc that was previously written to by a computer. You can view and print photos from these discs, but you cannot write new photos to them using your TV. This is because your TV and computer use different methods for writing files. When you want to write photos to a CD-R/RW, use only a new, blank disc.

Caution

Don't insert a CD-R/RW disc that has been written to by a computer or other source or you may lose your photos or other data.

Inserting a CD-R/RW

1 Press the eject button on the drive to open the tray.

2 Place a new, blank CD-R/RW disc on the tray with the label side facing up. Make sure the disc lays flat in the tray.

Caring For the TV

To keep your TV clean and operating correctly, or to move it to another location, follow the steps in these sections:

• “Cleaning the TV” below
• "Cleaning the Air Filter" below
• “Replacing the TV Projection Lamp” on page 101
• “Replacing the Printer Ink Cassette” on page 105
• "Moving or Transporting the TV" on page 111

Cleaning the TV

Remove dust from the screen using only a soft, lint-free cloth, such as a lens-cleaning cloth or a flannel or microfiber cloth. If necessary, moisten the cloth with water and diluted mild detergent.

Don't press too hard as you clean the screen.

Clean the rest of the TV in the same way. Keep the panel covers closed as you clean and avoid dampening the connectors on the back.

Cleaning the Air Filter

You need to clean the TV's air filter periodically—about once a month—to make sure the TV doesn't overheat due to insufficient ventilation.

1 Pull out and remove the vent cover on the left side of the TV.

Illustration of a computer monitor with ventilation grilles and a curved arrow indicating airflow (no text or symbols)

Caution

Don't use strong or abrasive cleaning solutions to clean the screen. Never use alcohol, benzene, wax, window cleaner, scouring powder, or other cleaners.

2 Use a small, hand-held vacuum to remove dust from both sides of the vent cover.

3 To replace the vent cover, insert the tabs on the back into the right side of the vent opening. Then press in the left side of the vent cover.

Replacing the TV Projection Lamp

The projection lamp in your TV is designed to last approximately 10,000 hours. Lamp life will vary depending on the mode selected, environmental conditions, and usage.

When it is time to replace the lamp, the TV displays a message on the screen.

The Lamp and Power lights on the front of the TV also indicate the status of the lamp.

You can purchase replacement lamp number ELSLP1 from your dealer or EPSON. Call [phone] or visit the EPSON Store at www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales only). In Canada, please call [phone] for dealer referral

Don't replace the lamp unless you see a screen message or the Lamp and Power lights indicate lamp replacement, as described in the table below:

Lamp light Power light EPSON Lamp Power Power

Lamp light status	Power light status	Action
Orange flashing Any state Lamp replacement warning
		The projection lamp is almost burned out. You may also see a message on the screen.
		Obtain a replacement lamp, then follow the steps on page 102 to replace it.
Red Red Lamp error
		The projection lamp has burned out or has another problem. Obtain a replacement lamp, then follow the steps on page 102 to replace it.
Red flashing Red Lamp cooling or open cover error
		Make sure the lamp cover is closed completely. See the steps for accessing the cover on page 102.
		If the cover is closed, the lamp may not have cooled completely before the cover was opened. Wait a few minutes until the fan stops running, then unplug the TV, plug it back in, and press the Power button to turn on the TV. If the error persists, contact EPSON as described on page 124.

Caution

If your picture quality is not what it should be, try the other solutions described in "Picture Problems" on page 116 to correct it. If none of them work, you may need to replace the lamp. However, contact EPSON (see page 124) to see if lamp replacement would help before replacing the lamp unnecessarily.

Turn off the TV when not in use. Continuous 24-hour-a-day use may reduce its overall life.

Lamp Replacement Precautions

• Never touch the projection lamp immediately after turning off the TV or you could be burned. Wait at least 30 minutes after turning off the TV to let the lamp cool down completely.
• If the lamp has broken, handle the shards carefully to avoid injury.
• The used lamp contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations regarding disposal or recycling. Do not put the lamp in the trash.
  • Install the new lamp securely to avoid an electrical short or other damage. Insert the lamp as described below, pushing it all the way into its slot. Tighten the screws to lock the lamp securely into place or the lamp will not come on.
• Do not touch the glass on the lamp with your bare hands. This can shorten the lamp life and obscure the projected image. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.
• Do not drop the replacement lamp or bump it against any surface; the lamp could be permanently damaged.

WARNING

The lamp is very hot. You must let it cool down for at least 30 minutes before you touch it or you could be burned.

Removing and Installing the Lamp

1 Turn off the TV, unplug it from the electrical outlet, and let it cool down for at least 30 minutes.
2 Make sure you have a replacement lamp (part number: ELSLP1).
3 Grasp the right speaker cover on the bottom and side, pull it off, and set it aside.
