MAINTENANCE
This section describes the simple maintenance procedures you should follow to replace the lamp, and to clean the cabinet and the lens.
Replacing the Lamp
After your lamp has been operating for 1500 hours (up to 2000 hours : Eco mode) or longer, the "Lamp" indicator in the cabinet will blink red and the message will appear. Even though the lamp may still be working, replace it at 1500 hours (up to 2000 hours : Eco mode) to maintain optimal projec- tor performance.
CAUTION
•DO NOT TOUCH THE LAMP immediately after it has been used. It will be extremely hot. Turn the projector off, wait 90 seconds, turn off the main power switch, and then disconnect the power cable. Allow at least one hour for the lamp to cool before handling.
•DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS except the lamp cover screw and two lamp case screws. You could receive an electric shock.
•The projector will turn off and go into stand by mode after 1600 hours (up to 2100 hours : Eco mode) of service. If this happens, be sure to replace the lamp. If you continue to use the lamp after 1500 hours (up to 2000 hours : Eco mode) of use, the lamp bulb may shatter, and pieces of glass may be scattered in the lamp housing. Do not touch them as the pieces of glass may cause injury.
If this happens, contact your NEC dealer for lamp replacement.
