Maintenance and Care
When the life of the projection lamp of this projector
draws to an end, the Lamp replacement icon appears on
the screen and LAMP REPLACE indicator lights yellow.
Replace the lamp with a new one promptly. The timing
when the LAMP REPLACE indicator should light is
depending on the lamp mode.
Lamp Replacement
Top Control
For continued safety, replace with a lamp of the same type. Do not drop a lamp or touch a glass
bulb! The glass can shatter and may cause injury.
Allow a projector to cool, for at least 45 minutes before you open the Lamp cover. The inside of the
projector can become very hot.
CAUTION
CAUTION
When replacing the lamp because it has stopped illuminating, there is a possibility that the lamp may
be broken.
If replacing the lamp of a projector which has been installed on the ceiling, you should always
assume that the lamp is broken, and you should stand to the side of the lamp cover, not underneath
it. Remove the lamp cover gently. Small pieces of glass may fall out when the lamp cover is opened.
If pieces of glass get into your eyes or mouth, seek medical advice immediately.
CAUTION
Refer to the next page for replacing a lamp.
