Replacing the projection lamp

The lamp hours timer in the Service Info menu counts the number of hours the
lamp has been in use. Twenty hours before the lamp life expires, a message appears
on the screen at startup indicating that you should change the lamp. The LED on
top of the projector also blinks red twice to indicate that the lamp should be
changed.

NOTE: You can order new lamp housings from www.infocus.com (in select areas),
your retailer or your dealer. Use only a replacement lamp with the same type and
rating as the original lamp.

WARNING:

To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before
you replace the lamp.

Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely
event that the bulb ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The
lamp housing is designed to contain these fragments, but use caution when
removing the lamp housing. Before replacing the lamp, clean the lamp
compartment and dispose of cleaning materials. Wash hands after lamp
replacement.

Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance with local dis-
posal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.
