Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp lasts for up to 1700 hours (in low brightness mode) or 3000 hours
(in high brightness mode). You can use the Info menu to check how long it’s been in use
(see page 56). It’s time to replace the lamp when:
The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
The projector’s warning light flashes red at half-second
intervals.
The message Replace the lamp appears on the screen
when you start projecting.
Note: Lamp life results will vary depending on mode selected,
environmental conditions, and usage.
Contact your dealer or call EPSON at (800) 873-7766 in the United States for a replacement
lamp. Request part number
V13H010L28. In Canada, call (800) 463-7766 for dealer referral.
Be sure to read the “Important Safety Information” on page 69 before replacing the lamp.
Warning: Let the lamp cool fully before replacing it. In the unlikely event that the lamp has
broken, small glass fragments may be present and should be removed carefully to avoid injury.
The lamp component contains mercury. Please consult your state and local regulations
regarding proper disposal or recycling, and do not place in the trash.
Caution: Never touch the lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by the oil on
your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.
Follow these steps to replace the lamp:
1. Turn off the projector and wait for the P power light to stop flashing.
2. Unplug the power cord and any cables.
3. If the projector has been on, let it cool for about an hour.
4. Loosen the two screws securing the lamp cover
(they don’t come all the way out), and then
remove the cover.
