Replacing the projection lamp
The lamp hour timer in the About menu counts the number of hours the
lamp has been in use. Fifty hours before the specified end of the lamp’s life,
the message “Change lamp” briefly appears on the screen at each startup.
After 50 additional hours, the lamp will no longer light. You can order new
lamp modules from your dealer.
1 Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable.
2 Wait 60 minutes to allow the projector to cool thoroughly.
3 Turn the projector upside down and loosen the two screws on the lamp
door. Pry the door straight up to disengage the power interrupt connec-
tor (located on the underside of the door) and remove the lamp door. Be
sure to pry the door straight up, not at an angle, to avoid damaging the
power interrupt connector.
NOTE: The projector will not turn on while the lamp door is removed.
4 Pull the pull tab on the lamp module up to release the catch.
5 Pinch the lamp cable’s connector tabs to release the catch while pulling
firmly on the connector to unplug the lamp.
