Replacing Lamps
Follow these steps to remove the lamp and install a new one.
Removing the Old Lamp
1.Leave the projector running with the lamp off for at least 6 minutes before you change the lamp (to do this, press the lamp button to turn the lamp off). This allows the fan to cool the lamp chamber. Do not open the lamp chamber until the projector has cooled.
2.After the lamp chamber has cooled sufficiently, turn off the projector, unplug the power cord from the wall socket, and remove the power cord from the projector’s power receptacle. As a safety feature, you cannot open the lamp chamber unless the cord is removed.
3.Move the lamp chamber latch to the right. The cover will unlatch and partially open.
