• Never attempt to re-use an old lamp unit. This may cause marked performance
deterioration or lamp blowout, which may be explosive. Broken pieces of the lamp
outside the projector may also be dangerous during lamp unit exchange.
• Do not replace the lamp immediately after the projector has been in use. The
temperature of the lamp is still high and this may cause a burn. Allow a cooling period
of 1 hour or more before replacement.
• Before replacing the lamp unit, pull out the power plug from the outlet on the rear
of the unit while the Standby indicator is still on. Replacing a lamp with the plug
connected to the outlet may cause injuries or electric shocks.

Handling the new Lamp Unit

with a bare hand may dirty the surface, hence shortening the lamp life, causing marked
performance deterioration, image darkening, lamp blowout and other problems.
