Replacing the Lamp Unit
Your TV’s source of light comes from a lamp – similar to lamps used in film or front projectors. Although this lamp is long- lasting, it may need to be replaced eventually.
When to replace the lamp
You probably need a new lamp if there’s no picture, but you still can hear the audio and the power light on the front of the TV does the following: blinks 5 times, pauses, blinks 5 times again. If the TV doesn’t turn on after 5 minutes and then the light blinks steadily for one minute, the lamp is dead. If you have any concerns, please go to http://www.infocus.com/service or call an authorized servicer in your area.
Note: The same symptoms occur if the lamp unit isn’t seated correctly, lamp access door is ajar, or lamp power supply needs service. Make sure the lamp access door is completely closed and the lamp unit is seated correctly.
What to do
•If your TV is still covered by the warranty, go to http://www.infocus.com/service.
•If your TV’s warranty has expired, go to http://store.infocus.com to order a new lamp, and you can install it yourself using the directions that follow.
The lamp has been designed to make installation as easy as possible, but if you don’t follow the directions, there is a risk of burn injury or electric shock.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS: Before you begin, make sure you read and understand all of the instructions. You must follow all the instructions step by step.

You Must Wait 1 Hour Before You Replace the Lamp!

•Don’t remove the lamp access door or remove the inoperative lamp unit until you have a replacement lamp (this will reduce the risk that children or pets will come into contact with the hot lamp, and will keep foreign objects and dust out of the lamp unit.)
•Never allow children or pets to play with the lamp access door at any time.
•Use only a genuine InFocus lamp replacement unit.
•There are no user serviceable parts within the lamp unit itself. Don’t attempt to repair the lamp unit – attempting to do so may cause injury, and will void your warranty.
