Replacing the Lamp
Projector lamps have a nite life. Replace the lamp when:
Themagebecomesdarkerandhuesbecomeweakerafteralamphasbeenfor
alongperodoftme. TheprojectorlampLEDndcatorturnsntoamber.RefertosectonttledLED
Indicator Messages forfurtherdetals.
The lamp becomes high temperature after turning off the projector with the power
button. If you touch the lamp, you may scald your nger. When you replace the
lamp, wait for at least 45 minutes for the lamp to cool down.
Do not touch the lamp glass at any time. The lamp may explode due to
improper handling, including the touching of the lamp glass.
Lamp lifetime may differ from lamp to lamp and according to the environment
of use. There is no guarantee of the same lifetime for each lamp. Some lamps
may fail or terminate their lifetime in a shorter period of time than other similar
lamps.
A lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result
of hours of use as its lifetime draws to an end. Risk of explosion may differ
according to the environment or conditions in which the projector and lamp
are being used.
Wear protective gloves and eyeglasses when xing or detaching the lamp.
Faster on-off-cycles will damage the lamp and reduce lamp life. Wait at least
for 5 minutes to turn off the projector after powering on.
Do not operate the lamp in proximity to paper, cloth, or other combustible
material nor cover it with such materials. Otherwise it could cause a re.
Do not operate the lamp in an atmosphere containing an inammable
substance, such as thinner. Otherwise it could cause a re or explosion.
Thoroughly ventilate the area or the room when operating the lamp in an
oxygen atmosphere (in the air). If ozone is inhaled, it could cause headaches,
nausea, dizziness, etc.
The inorganic mercury is involved in the lamp. If the lamp bursts, the mercuryinside the lamp will go out of the projector. Leave the area immediately if
the lamp shatters while being operated and ventilate the area for at least 30
minutes in order to avoid the inhalation of mercury fumes. Otherwise it could
be harmful to users health.

glass.
Do not reuse the old lamp. This could cause the lamp to explode.
Be sure to turn off the projector and unplug the AC power cord before replacing
the lamp.
Do not use the projector with the lamp cover removed.
