How to Replace the
Lamp
1
Turn off the power on the main unit. Wait several minutes, then unplug
the power cord.
(The cooling fan will continue to operate for about two minutes after
turning the power off.)
2
Wait at least 30 minutes after unplugging the power cord to allow the
lamp to cool down before replacing it. To avoid being burned, do not
touch the lamp receptacle once the lamp has been removed.
3
Take the new lamp out of its package.
Do not touch the glass portion of the new lamp.
4
Turn the screw with a screwdriver counterclockwise and remove the
outside lamp cover.
5
Pull out the lamp.
Place your index finger through the hoop of the lamp handle and pull it
upwards, while placing your thumb on the dent on the top. Then pull
the lamp out.
✍
Do not shake the lamp. Vibration can damage the lamp or
shorten its life.
✍
Avoid touching the front glass of a new lamp or the glass of the
lamp receptacle. This may reduce picture quality or lamp life.
✍
The lamp is very hot after use. Never touch the glass portion of the
lamp or the non-designated surrounding parts (shown in gray).
✍
After the used lamp has cooled, place it into the empty box of the
replacement lamp. Never put the used lamp into a plastic bag.
