Maintenance And Security; Replacing The Projection Lamp - InFocus IN5212a User Manual

Replacing the Projection Lamp

The projection lamp should be replaced when it burns out. Be sure to use the InFocus lamp module
designed for this projector. You can order new lamps from www.infocusstore.com (in select areas), your
retailer or your dealer. Only genuine InFocus lamps are tested for use in this projector. Use of non
InFocus lamps may cause electrical shock and fire, and may void the projector warranty. InFocus is not
liable for the performance, safety or certification of any other lamps.
Warning:
• The projector uses a high-pressure mercury glass lamp. The lamp may fail prematurely, or it
may rupture with a popping sound if jolted, scratched, or handled while hot. The risk of lamp
failure or rupture also increases as the lamp age increases; please replace the lamp when you
see the "Replace Lamp."
• Do not touch or block the projector lens with any objects as this can damage the projector
lens. Scratches, gouges and other lens damage are not covered by the product warranty.
• Unplug the power cord before replacing the lamp.
• Do not drop the lamp module. The glass may shatter and cause injury.
• Do not touch the glass surface of the lamp module. Fingerprints can obscure projection
sharpness and may cause the glass to shatter.
• Be extremely careful when removing the lamp housing. In the unlikely event that the lamp
ruptures, small glass fragments may be generated. The lamp module is designed to contain
most of these fragments, but use caution when removing it.
• Before replacing a ruptured lamp, clean the lamp compartment and dispose of cleaning
materials. Wash hands after lamp replacement.
•
When replacing the lamp while the projector is ceiling-mounted, wear protective
eyewear to prevent eye injury. Hg – Lamp contains mercury. Manage in accordance
with local disposal laws. See www.lamprecycle.org.
• Be sure to turn off and unplug the projector at least 60 minutes before replacing the lamp.
Failure to do so could result in a severe burn.
