Maintenance And Security; Replacing The Projection Lamp - InFocus IN3118HD User Manual

Replacing the Projection Lamp

The projection lamp should be replaced when it burns out. Be sure to use the InFocus lamp module de-
signed 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 InFo-
cus 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"
• To avoid burns, allow the projector to cool for at least 60 minutes before you replace the
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 mate-
rials. 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.
Pry the screw cover out.
