Replacing the TV Projection Lamp

The projection lamp in your TV is designed to last approximately 10,000 hours. Lamp life will vary depending on the mode selected, environmental conditions, and usage.

When it is time to replace the lamp, the TV displays a message on the screen.

The Lamp and Power lights on the front of the TV also indicate the status of the lamp.

You can purchase replacement lamp number ELSLP1 from your dealer or EPSON. Call

(800)873-7766 or visit the EPSON Store at www.epsonstore.com (U.S. sales only). In Canada, please call (800) 463-7766 for dealer referral

Don’t replace the lamp unless you see a screen message or the Lamp and Power lights indicate lamp replacement, as described in the table below:

Caution

If your picture quality is not what it should be, try the other solutions described in “Picture Problems” on page 116 to correct it. If none of them work, you may need to replace the lamp. However, contact EPSON (see page 124) to see if lamp replacement would help before replacing the lamp unnecessarily.

Turn off the TV when not in use. Continuous 24-hour-a- day use may reduce its overall life.

Make sure the lamp cover is closed completely. See the steps
