Maintenance

Notes

•If the lamp breaks, consult with qualified Sony personnel.

•Pull out the lamp unit by holding the handle. If you touch the lamp unit, you may be burned or injured.

•When removing the lamp unit, make sure it remains horizontal, then pull straight up. Do not tilt the lamp unit. If you pull out the lamp unit while tilted and if the lamp breaks, the pieces may scatter, causing injury.

Replacing the Lamp

When it is time to replace the lamp, replace the lamp promptly with a new LMP-P201 Projector Lamp. The lamp reaches the end of its life after about 1500 hours for the STANDARD setting, or about 3000 hours for the LOW setting in the LAMP MODE. When it is time to change the lamp, a message which says, “Please replace the LAMP.” will be displayed.

When replacing the lamp after using the projector

Turn off the projector, then unplug the power cord. Wait for at least an hour for the lamp to cool.

Note

The lamp becomes a high temperature after turning off the projector with the I / 1 key. If you touch the lamp, you may scald your finger. When you replace the lamp, wait for at least an hour for the lamp to cool.

1 Place a protective sheet (cloth) beneath the projector.

Hold the projector handle and turn the projector toward the control panel as shown below.

Note

When replacing the lamp, be sure it is on a flat and stable surface.

2 Open the lamp cover by loosening one screw with the Philips screwdriver (supplied with the LMP- P201 Projector Lamp).

3 Loosen two screws on the lamp unit with the Philips screwdriver.

4 While holding the handle and keeping the lamp unit horizontal, pull straight up.

5 Insert the new lamp all the way in until it is securely in place. Tighten the screws. Fold down the handle.

Notes

•Be careful not to touch the glass surface of the lamp.
