Ask Proxima 9100 manual Replacing The Lamp, Removing the old lamp

REPLACING THE LAMP

For best performance, you should replace the lamp after 700 hours of operation.

Note: Do not touch the lamp with your bare hands. Use gloves or a soft cloth and handle it using the metal ends only.

Removing the old lamp

1Leave the projector running with the lamp off for at least five minutes before you change the lamp. This allows the fan to cool the lamp chamber.

2After the lamp has cooled sufficiently, turn off the projector and unplug the power cord. (As a safety feature, the lamp chamber can’t be opened until the power cord has been removed.)

3Slide the AC lock button in the direction of the arrow. This button will not move unless the power cord has been disconnected from the projector.

4While sliding the AC lock button, remove the left side cover by sliding it about 1/4 of an inch to the left. When the cover releases, pull it straight off (see Figure 5-2).
