Replacing the Lamp

Lamp replacement period

It is time to replace the Lamp when:
•The message "Replace the lamp." is displayed at the lower left of the
projection screen when you start projecting.
•The Lamp indicator flashes orange.
•The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
Attention
•
The lamp replacement message is set to appear after the following time periods
in order to maintain the initial brightness and quality of the projected images.

p.52
When Power Consumption is set to Normal: About 3900 hours
When Power Consumption is set to ECO: About 4900 hours
•
If you continue to use the Lamp after the replacement period has passed, the
possibility that the lamp may explode increases. When the Lamp replacement
message appears, replace the Lamp with a new one as soon as possible, even if
it is still working.
•
Do not repeatedly turn off the power and immediately back on. Turning the
power on and off frequently may shorten the lamp's operating life.
•
Depending on the characteristics of the Lamp and the way it has been used,
the lamp may become darker or stop working before the lamp warning message
appears. You should always have a spare lamp unit ready in case it is
needed.

How to replace the lamp

The Lamp can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a
ceiling.
Warning
•
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.
•
Never disassemble or remodel the Lamp. If a remodeled or reassembled Lamp
is installed into the projector and used, it could cause a fire, electric shock, or
an accident.
