The lamp has been in operation for 2000 hours. Install a new lamp for optimal performance.
Replacing the lamp
CAUTION: HOT SURFACE! The lamp may be very hot after use. Before
replacing the lamp, turn off the projector, unplug the power cord, and allow the projector to cool for at least 45 minutes.
The lamp unit contains mercury. Disposal of mercury may be regulated due to environmental considerations. Dispose of the used lamp unit by the approved method for your area. Contact your local authorities or www.eiae.org (USA only).
A lamp is consumable supplies. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.
WARNING
•If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, ask your Toshiba dealership to replace the lamp. Replacing the lamp at a high site by yourself may cause you to drop down, thus resulting in injury.
•When replacing, always use lamp “TLPLW7” (sold separately).
CAUTION
•If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause burn injuries. Wait for the lamp to cool (for at least 45 minutes) before replacing it.
•If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken pieces and contact your dealer for repair service.
