Replacing the Lamp
The light source lamp and its lamp time
The light-source lamp has a service life. The life of the lamp currently used for this projector is about 2000 hours.
[Average lamp life: 2000 hours].
When the light-source lamp approaches the end of its service life, deterioration progresses rapidly. Please replace with a new lamp
when the accumulated lamp time exceeds 1900 hours or at least get a replacement lamp ready. Further, depending on the operat-
ing conditions, the lamp may have to be changed earlier. If the image remains dark or the tone, unusual, even after adjustment,
please exchange the lamp as soon as possible. In addition, you can check the accumulated used hours of the lamp. Please see the
“Lamp Time” item on the “Information” menu on page 40.
Please purchase the new lamp unit from the authorized dealer where you purchased the projector.

About lamp replacement
If the projector is set in a constricted place, performance of the replacement work there could cause injury. Move the projector
to a place large enough to work on replacing the lamp.
Use a genuine product for the lamp. If you use one other than a genuine product, this could cause a malfunction. Also, never
use an old lamp. This could cause marked performance deterioration or lamp blow-out leading to projector malfunction.
Further, the broken pieces of glass from the lamp may cause injuries.
Do not replace the lamp immediately after the projector has been used. The temperature of the lamp unit is still high and
could cause a burn. Allow a cooling period of one hour or more before replacement.
Before embarking on the lamp replacement work, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet while the STAND BY
indicator is on. If you perform the replacement work with the power cord connected, this could cause injury or electric shock.
