Replacing the Lamp

113

Warning: Let the lamp cool before replacing it. Also, do not touch
the glass portion of the lamp assembly; this can cause premature
lamp failure.

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

electrical outlet and the projector. Wait at least 20 minutes for
the bulb to cool.

2. Place the projector on its side with the handle at the top so you

can easily access the lamp cover.

Note: Placing the projector in this position keeps dust from
getting inside the projector housing.

3. Use a screwdriver, coin, or similar object to loosen the retaining

screw on the lamp cover. When the screw is loose, lift off the
lamp cover. (You cannot remove this screw from the cover.
