Step 1. Turn the projector off. Discon-
nect the power cord from the
outlet and the projector.
Step 2. Loosen the screw and remove the
lamp cover. (It is strongly rec-
ommended that you use a mag-
netic-head screwdriver.) If the
lamp is hot, avoid burns by wait-
ing 45 minutes until the lamp
has cooled.
Step 3. Loosen the 3 screws. Pull the han-
dle to remove the lamp housing.
If the screws are not loosened
completely, they could injure
your fingers. Do not insert your
hand into the box after the lamp
is removed. If you touch the
optical components inside, this
could cause color unevenness in
projected images.

Step 4. Replace the lamp with a new one.
Insert it into the projector, and
tighten the screws firmly. Loose
screws may cause a bad connec-
tion, which may result in mal-
function.
Step 5. Re-install the lamp cover and
tighten the screw. Do not turn
the power on with the lamp
cover removed. Whenever the
lamp is replaced, reset the total
lamp operation time. Do not
reset if the lamp is not replaced
as this could cause damage.
