Replacing the Lamp unit

Before replacing the Lamp unit

Switch off the MAIN POWER and disconnect the power plug from the wall socket. Make sure the Lamp unit and the surroundings are cooled enough.

Prepare a Phillips-head screwdriver.

Contact an Authorized Service Center to purchase a replacement Lamp unit (ET-LAF100).

When the projector is mounted in the ceiling, do not work directly under the projector or put your face closer to the projector.

NOTE:

Prior to replacing the lamp unit, allow it to cool down to prevent the risk of burns, damage and other hazards.

Do not attempt replacement with an unauthorized lamp unit.

When to replace the Lamp unit

The Lamp unit is consumable and the brightness decreases by duration of usage. The LAMP indicator will inform you of the replacement timing at 2 800 hours, and at 3 000 hours, the projector will be turned off. Those figures are rough guidance and might be shortened by the usage conditions, characteristics of the Lamp unit, environmental conditions, and so on. You can check the duration of usage time using LAMP RUNTIME in the OPTION menu.
