Lamp Information  
Use and Replacement of the Lamp  
When the Lamp Indicator lights up red or a message appears suggesting the time of lamp  
replacement, please install a new lamp or consult your dealer. An old lamp could cause a  
malfunction in the projector and in rare instances may even break.  
For more detailed information, please refer to "LED Indicator Status & Illustration" on page  
The Lamp and Temp indicators will light up if the lamp becomes too hot. Turn the power off  
and let the projector cool for 45 minutes. If the Lamp or Temp indicator still lights up when  
turning the power on, please contact your dealer.

Step 1. Turn the projector off. Discon-  
nect the power cord from the  
outlet and the projector.  
Step 2. Loosen the screw and remove the  
lamp cover. (It is strongly rec-  
ommended that you use a mag-  
netic-head screwdriver.) If the  
lamp is hot, avoid burns by wait-  
ing 45 minutes until the lamp  
has cooled.  
Step 4. Replace the lamp with a new one.  
Insert it into the projector, and  
tighten the screws firmly. Loose  
screws may cause a bad connec-  
tion, which may result in mal-  
function.  
Step 5. Re-install the lamp cover and  
tighten the screw. Do not turn  
the power on with the lamp  
cover removed. Whenever the  
lamp is replaced, reset the total  
lamp operation time. Do not  
reset if the lamp is not replaced  
as this could cause damage.  
Step 3. Loosen the 3 screws. Pull the han-  
dle to remove the lamp housing.  
If the screws are not loosened  
completely, they could injure  
your fingers. Do not insert your  
hand into the box after the lamp  
is removed. If you touch the

could cause color unevenness in  
projected images.
