Replacing the Lamp and the Air Filter and cleaning the Ventilation holes (intake)

Tools you need to get started:Standard Phillips screwdriverCloth (for scratch protection)

The lamp used for the light source has a certain lifespan. When the lamp dims, the color balance of the picture becomes strange, or “Please replace the Lamp/Filter.” appears on the screen, the lamp may be exhausted. Replace the lamp with a new one (not supplied) without delay.

Use an LMP-H200 Projector Lamp as the replacement lamp.

The air filter is supplied with the LMP-H200 Projector Lamp. When you replace the lamp, it is also time to replace the air filter.

Whenever you replace the lamp, be sure to replace the air filter with a new one. Also clean the ventilation holes (intake).

Caution

•The lamp remains hot after the projector is turned off with the ?/1 (ON/STANDBY) switch. If you touch the lamp, you may burn your fingers. When you replace the lamp, wait for at least an hour for the lamp to cool.

•Do not touch the surface of the lens. If you touch it, wipe off the fingerprints with a soft cloth.

•Pay special attention to replacing the lamp when the projector is installed on the ceiling.

•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.

•When you remove the air filter, be careful not to let any dust fall into the projector.

•Replacing the air filter is crucial to maintain the good performance of the projector or to prevent malfunction to it. When a warning message for replacing the air filter appears, replace the air filter immediately.

1 Turn off the projector and unplug the AC power cord.

2When setting the projector on a flat surface such as a desk etc., put a cloth to prevent the surface from being scratched. Reverse the projector as illustrated, then place it on the cloth.

Notes

•When the lamp is damaged the broken pieces of the lamp may become scattered, if you do not reverse the projector. This may cause injury.

•Be sure that the projector is placed on a stable surface.

3Loosen the screw on the lamp cover with a Philips screwdriver, and then open the lamp cover.
